Laalo, Tu Meri, Ikkis, Ghost Stories

Watched four movies as mentioned above.

Laalo Krishna Sada Sahayate

  • Watched this movie on the big screen
  • I watched the Hindi version dubbed from Gujarati.
  • I liked the movie.
  • Krishna Bhagwan is manifestation of Lord Vishnu and one of the most lovable Avatars of Vishnu.
  • This movie has a lot of social messages and that is why it has become a huge hit.

Tu Meri Main Tera Mein Tera Tu Meri

  • This movie was watched on the big screen.
  • Too good movie with lot of comedy scenes.
  • 1st half is shot in Croatia and second half in India.
  • I don't understand why this movie bombed at the box office.

Ikkis

  • This movie was watched on the big screen.
  • This movie covers the whole situation of war in a balanced way.
  • It also reminds and makes us aware of history.
  • Like we can compare with situations like recent Operation Sindoor or 26/11 Mumbai attacks.
  • Where operation to "flush out" terrorists is on and public gathers to watch.
  • Ikkis does not show the public. But actually lot of public might have surrounded the battle zone.
  • I mean Arun Khetarpal when he enters Pakistan and on the next day ceasefire is declared and instead of surrendering he fights till the very end.
  • It was bad luck for him. Also it is shown in the movie he disobeyed order to retreat.
  • What did we expect.
  • One man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter or hero of nation as in this case.
  • People from other side will want an end to war or surrender of enemy.

Ghost Stories

  • This 2018 movie was watched on Prime Video.
  • Surprisingly this was a British movie.
  • And few British horror movies I have watched are too good horror.
  • This can be one of them excellent horror ones.
  • Must watch.
