Dev-D

This is a must watch as it helps you realize/learn/understand/enlighten yourself with some much required knowledge. I can say it s as good as sitting under a Banyan Tree, but I would nt dare imagine, what form Buddhism would have taken if Buddha did watch Dev-D instead of relying on the good old ways.
After watching the movie,
1) You will realize that the movie was strategically named so, as its an acronym for Does everlasting Damage (although I'm yet to figure out what the hyphen there signifies).
2) You would have new found respect for Hindi Cinemas like Kabhi Kushi Kabhi Gham and Kuch Kuch Hotha Hai by Karan Johar and Subhash Ghai s Kisna.
3) You would develop sudden interest in martial arts/Karate to practice it out on the person who suggested the movie to you.
4) For once you ll realize what 2 and a half hours actually means, how long it is and what alllll you can do in that time if you were not in the theater.
5) For the first time you ll realize how the interiors of this theater looks like (even though you have come here many times before), the fabric of the seats, the neat alignment of the chairs, all the exit points, how the right most fan does not work, how the ceiling is spaced with 25 bulbs.....

So Hurry!, book your seats today to watch the movie which is filled with lou :)
And like any other good movie, this has a secret key factor, the momo guy. In your restlessness to walk out of the theater you might miss out the important link so watch out...

My Rating: 1 Black hole (Obviously this movie is beyond all stars)
