Latest Bollywud Podcast Episodes
Kaagaz - Review
Bollywood Hindi Movie Reviews by wogma - January 15, 2021 11:26 - 2 minutes ★★★ - 21 ratingsA walkthrough of what a man went through to prove that he is alive. Feels like interesting journal entries that strictly stick to the “what” without getting into the “why”. (Available on Zee5)
Coolie No 1 - Review
Bollywood Hindi Movie Reviews by wogma - January 08, 2021 12:51 - 1 minute ★★★ - 21 ratingsNo, I hadn't expected anything else. Got exactly what I had signed up for and more on each count—worst kind of misogyny, cringy slapstick humour, horrifying *ahemmm* story-line.
Soul - Review
Bollywood Hindi Movie Reviews by wogma - January 07, 2021 11:16 - 2 minutes ★★★ - 21 ratingsSomeone thought of putting questions about life, death and beyond in a light, fun movie—that in itself is incredible. And then you have lovely animation to make the experience even richer—enough to excuse the anti-climactic end. (Available on Disney-Hotstar)
Aashiqui 2 - Review
Bollywood Hindi Movie Reviews by wogma - April 26, 2013 12:35 - 3 minutes ★★★ - 21 ratingsIt is weird that Aashiqui 2 doesn't engage you a 100%. It has decent performances, characters who know and show their feelings, a believable love story, yet it's not completely there.
Ek Thi Daayan - Review
Bollywood Hindi Movie Reviews by wogma - April 19, 2013 09:55 - 3 minutes ★★★ - 21 ratingsEk Thi Daayan builds at a good pace and takes the proceedings to a great peak at mid-time. Unfortunately, it goes only down after interval. Yet, there are a few genuine scares and good performances. A casual DVD watch.
Nautanki Saala! - Review
Bollywood Hindi Movie Reviews by wogma - April 12, 2013 11:08 - 3 minutes ★★★ - 21 ratingsNautanki Saala! Makes you want to believe that lovely performances by two lead characters, witty dialogue and a philosophical concept delivered with humor would be enough to make a film rise above the ordinary. Unfortunately it is matched by plastic/caricaturish performances by the rest of the ca...
Chashme Baddoor - Review
Bollywood Hindi Movie Reviews by wogma - April 05, 2013 09:19 - 3 minutes ★★★ - 21 ratingsChashme Baddoor is loud (like that's a surprise!), shamelessly mind-numbing, and exceeds your expectations at being miles away from logical. Bad performances, awful one-liners, ridiculously thoughtless situations make it even worse.
Himmatwala - Review
Bollywood Hindi Movie Reviews by wogma - March 29, 2013 09:49 ★★★ - 21 ratingsWorse than what you'd expect - loud, garish, melodramatic, inane, regressive in terms of film-making, extremely boring.
Sona Spa - Review
Bollywood Hindi Movie Reviews by wogma - March 22, 2013 11:47 ★★★ - 21 ratingsSona Spa is a metaphorical treat for reviewers. A film about a spa that cures insomnia is itself bland enough to put you to bed.
Rangrezz - Review
Bollywood Hindi Movie Reviews by wogma - March 22, 2013 06:54 - 2 minutes ★★★ - 21 ratingsRangrezz, surprisingly puts a solid effort in writing a decent story. Yet, it takes the events to extremes towards the end, makes it too long and loses the plot. Some witty dialogue and a few well-timed performances keep the interest alive in an otherwise uneven second half.
Aatma - Review
Bollywood Hindi Movie Reviews by wogma - March 22, 2013 05:15 ★★★ - 21 ratingsAatma has a storyline flatter than Bipasha Basu's waistline. So, you end up having yet another lame horror film, that barely manages to spook you.
Jayantabhai Ki Luv Story - Review
Bollywood Hindi Movie Reviews by wogma - February 15, 2013 13:15 - 2 minutes ★★★ - 21 ratingsJayantabhai ki Love Story doesn't have enough bhaigiri nor enough love. It doesn't engage, nor does it entertain.
Raavan - Review
Bollywood Hindi Movie Reviews by wogma - June 18, 2010 09:08 ★★★ - 21 ratingsIt's so confusing when seriousness is dealt with song and dance. Wish the film was advertised as modern Ram Leela performed in a tribal theater. That expectation would have prepped me to deal with the over-dramatization a lot better.
