Dev D, Khoya Khoya Chand and Bad day at black rock

Not many movies i watched in last 10 days or so. Still, have some thing to write and will always have before i resign from the human race.

1. Dev D (2009)
Bollywood often underestimates Abhay deol. He is like a silent assassin and he did few very entertaining movies in last 2-3 years. His Ek Chalis ki local was as good as any A grade movie. Dev D is phenomenal in first half although second half graduates to become "Emotional Atyachar". Mahie Gill looked good. Overall a very good time pass. 7/10.

2. Khoya Khoya Chand (2007)
Yet another masterpeice by Sudhir Mishra. After Hazarao Khwahishe Aisi i became a convert to his cult. Khoya Khoya Chand is very fresh in a way that it uses Urdu phrase regularly and in a very genuine way. Its a story of various aspects of Indian cinema or rather precursor of Page 3 in a layman sense. 7/10.

3. Bad day at Black Rock (1955)
A slow western thriller. Its a story about a man who embarks in a ghost town only to find enemies, in search of his inalienable pursuit. 6/10.

Adios Amigos, till i write again.
