Prem Ratan Dhan Payo - THE REVIEW

 
 
I have followed Salman Khan's career since I was a kid. His first film Maine Pyar Kiya released when I was Born. It is still one of my favourite films of all time. This movie was directed my Sooraj R. Barjatya the same guy that directed Hum Aapke hai Kaun and Vivah. It was only fair that if these two talented souls were going to work together. the film would HAVE to be a Blockbuster.
 
This had to be one of the BEST movies I have seen in the last 10 years without fail. I have been pretty unimpressed with Bollywood recently, but I must say that Salman Khan has kept Bollywood as it should be. With movies like Dabangg and Bhajrangi Bhaijaan. He is a very underrated actor and I love that.
We all know some very overrated actors in the Bollywood industry, I agree that they are talented but their movies have no real meaning to them any more.
This movie took me back to my childhood of watching a film that had the importance of Family and Love running through it. Those are the kinds of films I want to watch. The importance of life was seeping through this film and I felt so much happiness watching it.
Salman has completely out done himself with this movie. I loved seeing new Actors and Actresses instead of the overrated type we see. It made the film feel real and raw.
I would most definitely watch this again and ask you to give this movie a go too.
Sonam Kapoor shined like the star she is destined to be. She has finally shown her real talent in this movie. Good on her. I know people had their reservations about this duo, I sure did as I didn't think it would work. They casted the right person for sure. It worked so well.
Was lovely to see Neil Nitin Mukesh in this movie. Its about time these underrated actors were given roles to show their full potential. He played his character really well.
 
The Soundtrack
 
Himesh Reshammiya was behind this magical soundtrack. I have been playing this FULL soundtrack over again and again. Again, this was one of the reasons I felt so nostalgic whilst watching it. I love the songs "Jalte Diye" and "Aaj Unse Milna" the most but the whole soundtrack is decent.
The songs took me back to the evergreen days. Romantic songs at their best. Full of love, light and emotion. I have nothing but great words to say about this soundtrack.
 
The Clothing & Sets
 
Every few minutes I was nudging my Husband and whispering " we need to get married again, I want you to wear THAT, and I want to wear THAT. Oh my god look at THAT outfit!"
The outfits had that Mughal look, so rich and traditional. Gorgeous! I wish I could find some great photos of the sets online but I can't find anything decent enough to give the sets any justice. They defined BEAUTY!
 
 
 
 
Happy Diwali. Hope you enjoyed my review.

Bollywood Fashion - Aashiqui 2.

I FINALLY got round to watching a film called Aashiqui 2. The first one came out when I was about 3, since the day it came out, I have been obsessed with the soundtrack. Here we are 2013, OBSESSED with the sequel.

If you aren't familiar with Bollywood, I highly recommend you buying a bollywood movie as most come with English subtitles, you'll fall in love too.

Anyway, I watched this last night and fell in love with this saree. I'm actually considering to buy it.. £240!! Do I? Don't I? I think I know your answer lol




From Colours, to detail, to simplicity, to the blouse. Perfection.

Yash Chopra.. King of Romance.

A few of you may have seen Yash Chopra's name crop up on Twitter & Facebook yesterday.
For those of you who aren't familiar with Bollywood films. He was one of the BEST film director's in Bollywood history.
I am writing this post purely as a thank you to him for making some of my most FAVOURITE films of all time.. "Kabhi Kabhi" "Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge" "Dil to Pagal Hai" & "Veer Zaara"
If you haven't watched any of these, please do.
HE is the reason I am the biggest romantic in the world. A lot of people know that about my personality and know just how obsessed I was & still am with his films.
Rest in Peace to the King of Romance, Yash Chopra.



My favourite film.. ever!

Bollywood *E.O.T.D*

Finally, i've posted the long awaited Bollywood EOTD. I apologise for it being a week late, as you all know my Laptop has totally crashed on me but i've found a way of posting hehe yay! *The computer i'm using doesn't have the program I needed to edit & watermark the pics, so sorry for the quality of the photos*

So, I am a massive fan of Bollywood, not so much now but I love Bollywood movies from the  70s, 80s, & 90s era. I loved how glitzy and glamourous the women were, and how full of colour the dance sequences were, oh & lets not forget the cheesy love stories (I guess that's why i'm such a sucker for love). This post has been totally inspired by the wonderfully beautiful actresses. Here are a few of my favourites.


Madhuri Dixit.

Rani Mukherjee.
Priyanka Chopra.

Bollywood Look.
I started off by using Urban Decay Primer Potion.
I then used this beautiful gold shade (Urban decay - Half Baked) and worked it up to my eyebrow.


Next step, I used my beloved Accesorize Palette for this, the shade doesn't have a name but this is what it looks like..


It's a dark bergundy shade with green particles.
I worked this shade outwards and a little bit toward the inner eye.


One thing you found with a lot of the older Bollywood actresses was the amount of Eyeliner they wore. I loved how they had winged eyeliner on in almost every movie.


This was the finished look.

                              I hope you liked this post & again sorry for bad picture quality.
