Mistakes of Bollywood 2014


Yaariyaan
This bright idea for a film turned out to be a super hit in the public's eyes, making a collection of over 36 crore rupees (360 million rupees). In terms of acting, story, direction, Yaariyan should have been a flop. An idea which seemed promising at the start, turns out to be the biggest disappointment of the film. Attempted climaxes, fail to surprise and leave us thinking, "Why oh why, did I waste my time for this film".
On the plus side, the songs "Love Me Thoda Aur" and "Baarish" are brilliant pieces of composition, "ABCD" and "Sunny Sunny" became chart toppers.
I believe, you should run away from this film....as soon as you catch a glimpse
I give this film "3.5 out of 10" 3.5/10
Rating: Just watch the songs, the only watchable parts of the movie.



Dishkiyaoon 
Personally, I thought this was an interesting film, with a decent plot and even though the twists in the film were obvious, the way they were shot were visually acceptable. A decently directed film, is let down by Harman Baweja was definitely "Bewaja", which was an utter disappointment.
Sunny Deol was Sunny Deol so can not say much except that he did the best he could, there were no flaws in his portrayal of his character. Ayesha Khanna was nothing special, which means, this film could not have done well, if the lead actors were just "mediocre". Aditya Pancholi played the villain admirably, especially with a weak cast.
"Tu Hi Hai Aashiqui" is the only song worth mentioning, as the rest were bad attempts at music. Arjit Singh's voice makes any song worth a hear.
I give this film "4 out of 10" 4/10
Rating: Watch it...if you really want to...otherwise, watch something else



O Teri
It reads, "From the makes of Bodyguard", but this does not help the cause when the film turns out to too much noise but no action. Pulkit Samrat and Bilal Amrohi are journalists who find a scoop that can potentially change their lives and the rest of the film revolves around this scope. 
The film tries too hard to be funny and an entertainer while being a serious film with a good message behind it. "The film, all 107 minutes of it, is a full frontal assault that gives the audience no options at all. The only emotion it arouses is disgust. 
"O Teri" is a hard-to-classify film. In fact, one isn’t even sure it can be called a film. It is a loud, over-the-top, mindless caper masquerading as political satire." Sarah-Jane Dias (the female lead) is as useless as the male leads. The next line sums up this film "One character in O Teri reminds us that justice is blind, the public is dumb and the government is deaf. He might as well have added one more to that – on a bad day, Bollywood is spectacularly brainless." 

I give this film "3 out of 10" 3/10
Rating: DNA (Do Not Attend)



Youngistaan
Youngistaan is directed by Syed Ahmad Afzal, starring Jackky Bhagnani, Neha Sharma, Farooq Sheikh, Deepankar De and Kayoze Irani in lead roles. The idea behind the film is commendable but execution falters, due to the utter boredom that is displayed on screen. The film flopped in multiplexes and singleplexes alike. Bhagnani and Sharma have chemistry on screen especially when she screams and in the song "Suno Na Sangemarmar", apart from that they are fairly mechanical in their roles. This was Farooq Sheikh's last film before he passed away and like always he impressed. In my opinion, he was the star of the film, rather than Bhagnani. But that is just my personal opinion. Last year it was "Rangrezz", this year it is "Youngistaan", Bhagnani chooses meaningful scripts but they turn out to be "flops", which is kinda sad. Wish him and Sharma the best for their future movies.
I give this film "3.5 out of 10" 3.5/10
Rating: Wikipedia the story, no need to watch it!
