They say men are from Mars and women are from Venus. But what happens when a man from Earth meets a woman from Venus!

Milap Zaveri?s breezy rom-com begins with a spoof on the Hindi film industry just like Om Shanti Om with Riteish playing SRK, Vishal Malhotra playing Shreyas Talpade and Ruslaan Mumtaz playing a superstar ?Desh? just the way Deepika Padukone played ?Shantipriya?. OSO?s maker Farah Khan also makes an impressive cameo as she is the director who Rajesh Parekh (Riteish) and Kaushal (Vishal) assist.

24 year old Rajesh and best friend Kaushal are perpetual losers as both are kind of chick repellants. Why, because Rajesh is too simple and Kaushal too horny. The two keep envying Desh?s popularity and his craze amongst the female population. One fine night, a gorgeous girl falls from the sky and lands straight into Rajesh?s arms! To everyone?s surprise the girl (Jacqueline) happens to be from Venus whose mission is to find her true love on earth, just like Rajesh.

Riteish, Vishal and Jacqueline all three render impressive performances and are the saving grace of the film. Where Riteish and Vishal have perfect comic timing, Jacqueline looks every bit a woman from Venus. She is gorgeous, pleasant and a confident performer. There is no naivety in her performance. Her Hindi too is surprisingly decent.

What disappoints is the sloppy script. The idea between alien-human love is interesting but the story doesn?t materialize as we would expect. The dialogues are corny, characters clich

Movie Review Phoonk 2 ( 2010 )

Cast: Neeru Bajwa, Sudeep, Amruta Khanvilkar, Ahsaas Channa, Rishabh Jain, Anu Ansari, Ashwini Kalsekar, Amit Sadh, Ganesh Yadav, Zakir Hussain, Vikas Srivastav, Rakesh Raj, Chyan Trivedi, Jeeva

?Phoonk 2? is the sequel of the flick ?Phoonk? by Ram Gopal Varma (RGV) which got released in 2008. Though, ?Phoonk? was a total failure in the box office and failed to give even the slightest panic to the audience. Now, RGV?s all hopes are set to ?Phoonk 2?.

?Phoonk? was all about black magic done by a female Madhu to traumatize the family of Rajiv (Sudeep), a businessman. The movie ended with the death of Madhu. The sequel ?Phoonk2? tells the story of Madhu?s evil spirit returning back to haunt the family and take her revenge from Rajiv.

In ?Phoonk 2?, Rajiv (Sudeep) shifts to a new place and is immersed in his construction business and his kids Raksha (Ahsaas Channa) and Rohan (Rishabh Jain) are also happy with the new place which is surrounded with beach and woods. The horror in their life starts when the kids find a doll in the woods which they carry back home. Thus, the evil spirit of Madhu returns into the doll to haunt and torment Rajiv (Sudeep),his wife Arati (Amruta Khanvilkar) and his beloved children Raksha and Rohan.


Rajiv could not stand the torture that his family gets to face because of Madhu. Madhu?s evil spirit leaves no stones unturned to smite Rajiv?s family to take its revenge. Manja (Zakir Hussain), was the only man who could have helped Rajiv but Madhu?s spook didn?t spare him either. The family suffers in a gruesome and cruel way in the hands of the evil. The spirit of Madhu is shown far more dangerous than she was before when alive. She became more rebellious and filled with animalism. She is brutal, dangerous and cruel and unforgiving. The family got trapped in the evil spirit?s woven trap and the movie shows how a living evil person can be more rebellious and powerful in evil manners after death. The spirit becomes invincible which the family fails to overcome. The evil spirit brings Rajiv to the verge where he has to choose to save a loved one by sacrificing the other.

Let the climax of the movie be a secret which will give answers to as to how do Rajiv cope with the situation, did his family members survived? This can be found out only in the theatres.

The story of the movie has been penned down and directed by Milind Gadagkar who is a debutant. The movie has been produced by P. Chandrashekhar and Prashant Burra. The flick is presented by Zed Pictures and Sarthak Movies. The flick?s music is by Dharam and Sandeep.

The movie has a lot of scenes which has shown sheer violence, bloodshed and horror. Disfigured bodies have been shown to produce the scare and disturbing sequences of death. People who have heart ailments can stay away from the theatres as there are a lot of disturbing scenes and sequences in the movie.

Horror genre is a chancy venture. However, it cannot be denied that there are many Horror genre hits in both Bollywood and Hollywood. Indian horror movies like 'Bees Sal Baad' and 'Raaz'(Part 1) with a solid script, good cinematography and direction have successfully given goose bumps to the audiences. The fate of ?Phoonk 2? depends on the audience now.
