My toplist

Recently I have been tagged by 'milesnsmiles' to comeup with my toplist of H/Bollywood movies. So here it is.....

The last movie I borrowed:
Pather Panchali: The first of the 'Apu Trilogy'. Now I have watched all the three parts of the trilogy.. though in reverse order. I liked the 'real cinema' and am amazed by the director's attention to details. A must for those who like 'non-masala' movies.

The last film I watched in Theater :
Hollywood: Mr. & Mrs. Smith: Total disappointment on all the fronts.
Bollywood: Paheli: I am glad for the simple story and so real indian ethnic show. I think its not a gr8 movie by any means, but I am happy to have watched this one.
