Gumnam – The Mystery: Bollywood Music

Gumnam – The Mystery: Surely fails to create an impact

Gumnam – The Mystery, a themed thriller, fails to create an impact of adventurous and suspense movie, as it was suppose to create. Produced by Shubir S Mukherjee, it is a low budget film as compared to most of the glamorized Indian movies. Although it aims at the story of an actress, still it lacks many aspects which make movie impact full and impressive. Although the director Neeraj Pathak left no stone unturned to make the movie somewhat remarkable, but it seems all his efforts are in vain due to a weak plot and story line. Casting in the movie does not make it a buzzing thriller of the year, as it has Mahima Chaudry in the lead accompanied with Dino Moria and Suman Ranganatahn. All of these actors have less attractive image in the box office and it seems there is no charm for the public to enjoy such movies.

The story of the Gumnam The Mytery revolves around Ria played by Mahima Choudry. She is music video model aiming to rule the glittering film industry, as a top actor. Destiny creates a sudden encounter of her with Dev (Dino Moria), a stunt man in the industry and saves her life in tedious accident. Eventually they realize that this act of destiny was not a mere co incident actually they are made for each other. In the mean time, Ria gets a marvelous opportunity of playing a lead role in a film. She goes for the shoot to Shimla and there the whole mystery starts. She gets introduced to the director Muni Ghandi (Govind Namdeo), who forwards her screen test cassette to Remon (Suman Ranganathan). Why her screen test cassette goes to Remon and what she’s doing in Shimla, all these incidents create unanswered questions for Ria and then she begins her quest to solve the mystery.

This movie bombed in the box office and immediately following the release, it has been giving empty shows.

The movie surely fails to create an impact. If you’re looking for some more confusion in your life, try solving the mystery in Gumnam!

Oh My God : Bollywood Music and Movie Review

Oh My God! Low Budget Comedy

A simple film having its own plus and minuses can describe ‘Oh My God’ the best. Directed by debutant, Sourabh Shrivastava, the film narrates a simple story and reminds the audience of the hilarious comedies of 70s and 80s. The movie depicts the flair of a comedy interwoven with interesting and simple sequences that make it a descriptive film. It may not have tremendous cast, gleaming outfits and extraordinary sets, but has got the heart in the right place. Being the first film of the director, Oh My God! has more aces as compared to the weakness and deficiencies associated with it.

The film revolves around an ordinary sales man Rajendra (Vinay Pathak) and his simple wife Suman (Diya Datta). Rajendra aims to earn his bread by ethical means and his wife Suman always pray for the success of her husband. However, being a simple man at heart Rajendra could not meet both end meet just with the honest salesmanship. No money making scheme work for him, as he continuously fails in all of his steps to earn something for his life. His wife pleads to God and there comes the most comical part of the film where God (Saurabh Shukla) himself encounters with Rajendra providing him with numerous opportunities to earn.

Just shot in 19 days, Oh My God! presents the complete touch and glare of an accomplished movie. There is no such depiction that the movie is accomplished in haste, as each actor fits best to his character and completely justifies the scenes and situation shot at him. All the sequences are well shot and organized. The second half of the movie is well conceived and runs at the better pace as compared to the first half.

The major highlight of the film is Vinay Pathak, as the whole film is shouldered on him. Another nice aspect of the film is its background score, for which full marks must be given to the music director. Overall, Oh My God! is a low budget comedy with immense talent of Vinay Pathak strongly supported by Saurabh Shukla and Divya Datta.
