Opposites attact, they say. But even the opposites had something similar that keep them together, for each other, and maybe even for ever. Similarities or differences - celebrate whatever it is that is the cause of your love. A chick flick that's not only for chicks.

Paa, a film that invokes thoughts on varying subjects from single parenthood, rare diseases to politics. And it does so successfully. As if that weren't enough it is all put together in a relatively unusual plot and has one superb performance by Amitabh Bachchan which overshadows brilliant performances by the rest of the cast too. We also look forward to your comments about the new format of the Wogma Podcast.

An adorable experience. A drama-free which by definition includes melodrama-free execution. Super-witty dialogues that are timed superbly. And a plot that flows smoothly. What more can we ask for? A faster pace? A shorter film? Maybe - but I'll take a little more of this than lose the impact it creates. Oh and kudos to Jaideep Sahni! This man has some writing prowess!!

We handle two new movies in this episode. Both the movies released this week - Chance Pe Dance and Pyaar Impossible were a disappointment.
Chance Pe Dance is about Sameer Behl (Shahid Kapoor), an aspiring actor mainly because he was born and stayed cute. He sees his ups and downs in life as an actor. At the end where does he reach? Up or down? If you really care you can go find out for yourself. Meeta pleads you to change the channels if its on TV.
Now Pyaar Impossible, they had enough maturity to touch upon some very valid issues revolving around love, it's a shame that it translates into a highly typical screenplay with the lousiest dialogues there could be!. Avoid.

Though 3 idiots is a little more slapsticky than the Munnabhai series, the crass humor seems to be with a purpose. What remains fascinating is the blend of comedy with his social messages, as usual. He makes being good look so simple.
