Guys we have a thread like this in the western movies section and its helpful in deciding which movies we to watch.
I will start off this section by recommending a movie called
Teen Diwaren
I dont know how many know of this movie.Dont think there was a lot of publicity associated with this movie..but I have to say that this is one of the best Hindi movies Ive watched ever.Great performances by Naseruddin shah,Jakie shroff(had given up on this guy) Hydrabad blues guy(forgot the name..think its kunal something-hes the director too) and Juhi Chawla.Great Movie.

Right madhu, it is Nagesh Kukunoor and that guy acts in 3n Deewarien.

Was a different kind of movie.

Company by RGV. One the best don movies ever made. It was liked by many of my white friends

**CowextetleSix** · 03-15-2006, 09:41 AM

Company was great.
Another one of my all time favs is Dil Chata hai..thought the movie was just superb.

**TeveVikep** · 03-15-2006, 08:09 PM

One brilliant Hindi film in the recent years was Maqbool.
Shakespeare's Macbeth wonderfully adapted by Abbas Tyrewala. The locales,ethos was created

Watertight screenplay, you don't sit back at all. Jealousy, lust, hatred, camaraderie, vengeance, love and power were all portrayed elegantly. The movie is exceedingly well written.

Mindblowing performance from Tabu with equally good performance from Irrfan and Pankaj Kapoor. Tabu, in particular had to manage the delicate balance of playing the manipulator and the vulnerable one.Naseeruddin Shah and Om Puri as the cops (equivalent of the three witches in Macbeth) are hilarious.

The music score by Vishal Bharadwaj is a big plus. The flute piece in the background for the slow-motion murder sequence is on example of his innovative work.

Though the movie had a good box office run, it is yet to be regarded as classic that it is. Do check it out.

Agree with u PR .Maqbool was a brilliantly made movie.Mind blowing performances.

**dr-eavealer** · 03-18-2006, 09:26 AM

Othello..hmm..not my fav Shakespeare play

**ropinirole** · 03-18-2006, 09:16 PM

Say...is this thread abt recommending only new movies or old ones as well?

**qd0vhq4f** · 03-19-2006, 02:34 AM

lamby , any movie which you feel good shoot it out

**vernotixas** · 03-19-2006, 02:37 AM

Othello..hmm..not my fav Shakespeare play

i guess even Ajay Devgan plays important role in this movie

VAASTAV by Mahesh Manjrekar is also a good movie....

brilliant performant by the lead cast and slick presentation

Am not a great fan of his wooden style. (The wounds of Khakee, Kaal,Apaharan are still fresh). Othello requires a fabulous performance showcasing torment, vulnerability and love. I'd be very surpised if Devgan pulls it off. Hence the

Tone down the ambition part and expand the jealousy and you have Othello from Maqbool. So I'd prefer Irfan himself.
