3D Animated Avatar Of Ramayana With Mahayoddha Rama

An epic age old story, told in a new age manner. ContiloePictures, one of India’s leading production houses unfolds the epic story of Ramayana in a unique 3D animated avatar. The movie portrays the greatest villain of Indian mythology, Ravana, like never before.

Mahayoddha Rama is unique in its storytelling style and novel presentation. Rama, the Indian hero from the Vedas is seen here in a new light. The entire story is from Ravana’s point of view with his 10 heads talking to each other, providing for comic relief through their individual and unique point of view. These 10 heads portray different characteristics with one being a ram bhakt and chanting “jai shri ram” at every mention of his while another never loses an opportunity to show Lankesh down. Some of the voices for the heads are given by famous artists like Gaurav Gera, Roshan Abbas, Ameen Sayani, Sadashiv Amrapurkar, Kikku Shardha and Gulshan Grover being the main head.

Bullet Raja - Bollywood Film Review

Rating: **

Raja Mishra (Saif Ali Khan) is a Brahmin boy in Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh looking for a job but gets involved with goons, and when he is chased, Raja sees a wedding procession and joins it. 

It is the local strongman's daughter's wedding and the procession is headed towards the strongman’s haveli, where Raja instantly befriends the bride's cousin, Rudra Tripathi (Jimmy Shergill). Within hours, Rudra and Raja become best of friends, and Raja becomes a part of rest of the functions and events of this Lucknowi wedding.

Tigmanshu Dhulia’s Bullet Raja has unrealistic gunfights, goons openly ruling the city, depicting incompetence of police force and a mishmash of love, politics and the underworld. It is a below average film.
