Rating: Wait for video release (Rating Scale)

Oye Lucky Lucky Oye - Review

28th November 2008 | posted in Hindi Movies, Reviews, meetu | 12 Comments

Yuvvraaj - Review

21st November 2008 | posted in Hindi Movies, Reviews, meetu | 19 Comments

Rating: Watch if you have nothing better to do (Rating Scale)

Quick Review: Preachy lines about family bonding and brotherly love are doze-worthy especially considering you have almost 3-hours of time to squeeze a snooze in.
