Bollywood actor Akshay Kumar offered prayers at the Ameen Peer dargah.

Akshay Kumar arrived in a helicopter from the airport near Tirupati around 4 pm and spent about 45 minutes at the Ameen Peer dargah, locally known as Pedda dargah.

“Not many would get an opportunity to come here. I am the privileged one. I am happy to come here,” the 42-year-old actor told reporters after paying obeisance.

Ameen Peer dargah was founded by Khwaja Peerullah Hussaini who was a lineage to Prophet Mohammed. Followers of the dargah believe that any wish that one makes at the shrine is always fulfilled.

Music maestro and Oscar award winner A R Rehaman is a frequent visitor to the shrine.

Road, Movie Review

Road, Movie Review “Must Watch”

Posted on 05 Mar 2010 at 4:45am

Having wooed the audiences with films like Split Wide Open and English August, director Dev Benegal in his Road, Movie takes his viewers for yet another ride that one isn’t likely to forget in a long time.

Thus we find a defiant Vishnu (Abhay Deol) setting off on a journey in his antique Chevy truck, desperately trying to escape becoming a salesman at his father’s hair oil company.

Little does Vishnu know that the old truck is actually an old touring cinemascope which used to be quite popular at one point in time.

As Vishnu progresses on the desert road he first comes across a young lad who works at a roadside tea shop. The boy requests Vishnu to give him a lift to which he agrees half-heartedly.

As luck would have it, the truck breaks down in the middle of the road and an irritated Vishnu blames the boy for the same. The boy leaves Vishnu in a huff, but returns the next day with an old mechanic (Satish Kaushik). The mechanic agrees to help only if he gets a lift to a nearby carnival. Vishnu picks him up for his own selfish reason.

The film uses the barren landscape to a great advantage. The virile rust and brown frames look picturesque. But the scorching heat soon poses a problem for the travellers as they face serious water crisis.

But the three wilted wanderers continue their excursion. This time around they encounter a gypsy lady (Tannishtha Chatterjee) in blue. She not only helps quench their thirst but also guides them towards a well from which they can fetch water. So far so good.

The four characters trapped in a queer game of love and hate blend into the scenario almost effortlessly. In Road, Movie the actors completely belong to the world that they inhabit. Their chance discovery of the magic of cinema and the way they use it to tame cops, goons and common folk alike are hilarious.

Abhay Deol with a constant frown on his face, except when he is with the gypsy woman, easily looks the part of an ‘angry young man.’

Mohammad Faizal as the young lad with a sharp tongue leaves you in splits with his naughty comments. Satish Kaushik as the elderly mechanic, who protects all at every step, impresses you with his performance.

Tannishtha Chatterjee as the beautiful gypsy woman perfectly complements Abhay on screen. The chemistry between them is quite searing.

The hair oil motif, which comes in handy to grease the old projectors as well as to fool the water lord who hoards water and sells it to the poor villagers at high price are too cool. The Gabbar spoof Benegal uses here makes you laugh out louder.

French cinematographer Michel Amathieu’s brilliant camera work makes it a visual delight.

The screenplay is fantastic and the editing superb, which doubles the charm of watching this film. Dev Benegal scores full marks as a director to keep the film short and crisp, with the right dosage of thrill, humour, sarcasm and reality rolled into one.

VERDICT: A must watch.
