Once Upon A Time In Mumbai Dobaara! (also known abbreviated as OUATIMD, and previously known as Once Upon A Time In Mumbai Again) is an Indian crime gangster film directed by Milan Luthria and produced by Ekta Kapoor and Shobha Kapoor. A sequel to the 2010 blockbuster film 'Once Upon a Time in Mumbaai', the film will feature Akshay Kumar, Sonakshi Sinha and Imran Khan in leading roles, and Sonali Bendre in a supporting role.

This is the third collaboration between Akshay Kumar and Sonakshi Sinha as a pair, after their 2012 films Rowdy Rathore and Joker, and the first between Sonakshi Sinha and Imran Khan. The lead role was at first chosen to be played by Emraan Hashmi, who also appeared in the original film, but director Milan Luthria was searching for an older actor, and hence roped in Akshay Kumar, where he is supposedly playing the role based on real-life dreaded gangster, Dawood Ibrahim.

                       

'Once Upon A Time In Mumbai Dobaara!' is the story of an underworld don, Shohaib (Akshay Kumar), who killed his mentor in the past (Once Upon A Time In Mumbai) to gain power and rule the city, where now he is quite known as the mafia king. His control and command has spread right up to the Middle East, today. In short, the movie takes off from where the previous film ended with Shoaib Khan being the powerful don after assassinating his mentor, Sultan Mirza (Ajay Devgn).

Shoaib is now a flamboyant and a debonair man, who is being feared by everyone and respected by everybody. He is the charismatic and suave man with womanising skills who has extended his empire up to the Middle-east on the west.

Shohaib's only confidantes are his best friend Javed, who supervises his empire for him, and also his former lover Mumtaz (Sonali Bendre), who is although now his closest friend. He often visits the poor Muslim areas where he grew up and it is on one such visit that he meets the remarkable boy, Aslam (Imran Khan). He takes him under his wings and gradually Aslam turns out to be one of his favourites.

However, this crack between Shoaib and Aslam has now somehow resulted in the ultimate face-off between the mentor & protege. Earlier the film was supposed to release with Shah Rukh Khan starrer film 'ChenShohaib wants to gain full control over Bombay and thus very soon he encounters with conflict from two existing gang-lords - Vardha and Arun. Vardha and Arun join hands with a cop - Sreenu, whose only mission in life is finishing off Shohaib's supremacy, for which he happily joins hands with the gang-lords. While Bombay continues to be the object of their fancy, Shohaib stumbles upon a young film actress - Yasmin (Sonakshi Sinha). He is immediately taken away by her freshness, beauty and sincerity. Slowly, but surely his magnetism towards Yasmin goes onto becoming an obsession. In due time this passion, which takes the shape of obsession, leads to a rift between Shoaib and Aslam as they both vie for Yasminai Express', but the makers have shifted a week later to avoid clash.

Madras Cafe Movie Review

Dum? Well there is lots of dum for all those who love to watch a decent political thriller. If you love such films this movie will quench your thirst as it’s a fine made film with lots of hard work which reflects on the screen. After the slow and confusing start the film goes on the jet speed leading to a superb climax. ‘Madras Cafe’ will add on to the elite list of all those fine political thrillers from our country and will inspire lots of film makers to explore out such taboo subjects. As for the normal masala film lovers who love feasting on entertaining film or don’t like to utilize the left side of their brain, this movie might not be their cup of tea.

Vignettes from Wild India!!!

Vignettes from Wild India! by WildFilmsIndia


Imagery in High Definition from across the Himalaya! A Himalayan Fox at a Snow Leopard kill, the Valley of Flowers, daisies in Landour, the Himalayan Barbet at its nest-hole, the White-breasted Dipper in the Teesta in Sikkim, and other images.
Wild India: Indian wildlife seems to get straight-jacketed into a mould that almost entirely comprises of the tiger! This is rather sad as the tiger is just one of the more prominent species that strikes us as beautiful and rare in the Indian wilderness. With its numbers in decline, we need to move away from the tiger as the focal point of wildlife tourism in India, and create interest in the numerous lesser cats, antelopes, deer, pheasants and other rare species of birds and animals that India harbours in the shadow of the great Himalayan mountains.
Arunachal Pradesh is Indian north-eastern most state and a tourism jewel in the rough. While the inner line permit and difficulty of access make visitation a somewhat tedious affair, once there, the domestic or international traveller is truly rewarded by the experience. The people are warm and welcoming, traditional and well-cultured, they are little changed by modern India and still continue with their age-old traditions. The weather is lovely year-round, the forests are green and salubrious, the wildlife diverse and engaging,the birdlife fabulous, and above all - the geography is diverse and unique.
I have been visiting Arunachal Pradesh since 1998 and ever since I discovered the Macaca munzala in Arunachal, the first and only new species of simian to have been discovered worldwide in the recent past, I kept returning for more.
Sikkim is truly India's hidden jewel. The last state to join the Indian union, it is a small state but has a wide range of attractions for a domestic or inbound international traveler. With a warm and welcoming local population, low crime rate, high hospitality quotient,cool and comfortable climate, green mountains, wide biodiversity, rich forests, bountiful rivers and much more, it is a tourism destination that is waiting to be discovered by a wider and more sophisticated international audience of the type the currently visits Bhutan. Sikkim has everything that Bhutan has going for it, and then some... Back in 2009 and 2010, we wanted to  expose the state's tourism bounty to a wider audience, and created this film at the end of 2010 to draw attention to all that the state can offer. We believe we have succeeded with this film and while it has been widely viewed, we would like it to reach a much larger audience, both in India and abroad, to heighten the tourism profile of the state and reward India's finest and most hidden tourism jewel. The people also need tourism at this point in time, as they recover from the most painful and debilitating earthquake. Despite the damage and human death tall that the tragedy wrecked, the people have put in their best to recover from it and even remain cheerful through the gloom. Tourism can be their saviour now.
Since we have the largest archive on the Himalaya in the world, in 2010 we decided to make a TVC that would attract the sophisticated global traveller to visit India and then travel around the Himalaya.
We feel the need this TVC successfully recreates the magic, adventure and excitement of being in the Himalaya and would like it to be shown to a wider global audience, to raise the profile of the Indian Himalaya and make people realize that there is more to the Himalaya than what is seen in Nepal, Bhutan and around Mt. Everest.
So many states touch our mountains that tourism in India can greatly gain from marketing our mountains better. Uttarakhand, Jammu & Kashmir, Himachal, Sikkim, West Bengal and Arunachal all stand to benefit.We would like to see Indian tourism gain from our chief geographical feature - the Himalaya!!!

It happens only in India!!!

It happens only in India! by WildFilmsIndia

A tongue-in-cheek, fun, energetic journey through the heart of India, showing its eccentricity to the full, and everything that makes being Indian, living in India and tolerating (and even enjoying!) the madness around us a worthwhile exercise... The very reason most of us chose to not become NRI's and live abroad. The fullness of the Indian experience, the madness of 1.20 billion people jostling for a small amount of space on this subcontinent.
The body odour and the sweaty armpits, the beautiful monsoon light, the dirty overflowing sewers after the rains, the brilliant views from a Himalayan summit, the flies on the mithai at your local sweet shop and despite all that - the delicious gulab jamuns he still manages to churn out! The fullness of all senses that India tends to occupy in the individual...It all only happens in India!
Images include the Kumbh Mela, Naga sadhus of the Aghori sect, coloured water wars at holi, Lath-mar holi at Barsana and Vrindavan, a massive kitchen karhai, a goat eating fish (or is that a fish-eating goat?), puris being made en masse, a woman patting a rat at the Rat Temple in Rajasthan, an Arunachali rural sport that challenges and possibly hurts the crotch, a pork-lard eating competition in Nagaland, a mango-eating competition in Delhi, a piglet-catching competition at the Hornbill Festival, Red Fort and the madness of Chandni Chowk seen from atop, a man removing a beehive with his bare hands, wrestling in Nagaland, a dhaba wala in action making chapattis, a bullock cart race in Punjab, a Punjabi man riding two horses at once, two men carrying hal or heavy metal ploughs in their mouths, naked Naga sadhus, Padayani festival from South India, a man milking a buffalo, an Eid crowd, a road-side ear cleaner, muharram self-flagellation, rat catching in Arunachal Pradesh, kids ice-skating in Zanskar, a Delhi cop asleep on the job and finally boys jumping into an old baoli in Delhi.
