Re: Reema Khan 'Love Mein Ghum'
Looks pretty crap but whatever atleast it isn't another Badmash Gujjar. Print quality and sound isn't look that bad.

Re: Reema Khan 'Love Mein Ghum'
*I will most definately get jootas thrown at me for this but in my opinion to hell with the cinemetography or whatever it is...its still not as good - this movies trailer reminded me of the old cheap bollywood movies that had comic scenes coming in between for no reason, unrealistic rich desi old thurkey dads having witchy young girlfriends/wives who keep on flirting with their step daughters love or their own husbands sons and every other guy in the movie. The new guy from a few clips seemed like Herman Bejaywa lol...the story seems pretty predictable filled with cheap gags and rip offs from either old pakistani movies and/or bollywood movies - dresses that Reema is wearing look so much like costumes...they're learned to go to good locations but it looks as if cheap fob are dancing and acting in the front. Momar Rana over does his expressions thinking that he's just perfect - the man is not an actor! he's an OVER THE TOP LOUD OVER ACTOR! Reema looks awful as well. she looks over aged overly dressed up with fake awful looking accessories. Javed Sheikh again acting like someone he'd really want to be probably and Nadeem the lecture giving pious saint.
The choreography looks pathetic as well. They seem to be reharsing and doing rata hua steps while counting in their head..its so obvious...1, 2, 3,4,5,6,7,8...and 1,2...like seriously don't try to make weird steps on your own if you don't know anything about dancing as a dance master and the actors cant dance.*
*The effort can be appreciated if you say so...but seriously from what i saw in that one theather i can say that i saw no difference same old dialog like dialogs which sound so unrealistic. Cheap comedy shoved in just to ruin the already crappy movie. Comedians doing their over the top best. A man dressed up as a woman yet the other men can recognize it and keep on falling in love with IT.
This is a same old typical crappy Pakistani movie wrapped in a new gift wrap thats all.*
Re: Reema Khan 'Love Mein Ghum'
These people should just make a dramas based on novelss and join all the episodes together and release them in theaters - that way the quality and class both would be really good. Think about it 15-18 minutes episode every week (15 to 16 episodes) join it together and you have a 2-3 hour film.
Re: Reema Khan ‘Love Mein Ghum’
Its just a typical bollywood film, but then with Pakistani actors.
I am sure the bollywood fans here would have loved to see this film if any Salman or Akshay and Katrina or Kareena would have played in this movie.
The comments would be something like:
“InshALLAH yeh film achhi hogi”
“InshALLAH i will go and watch it”
“Cant wait to see this one”
“The film doesnt look that good, but it will be good time pass”
babababa…
I am not saying that people should like this film.
I am just saying that people love to watch the same crap but then with Indian actors in it :k:
Re: Reema Khan ‘Love Mein Ghum’
Hahaha. Ghar ki murghi daal barabar.
Re: Reema Khan ‘Love Mein Ghum’
Thats because you know that no matter what when it comes to acting and looks (on screen) their actors definately look better. Watching a certain movie is an individuals choice…its their money, at the end people do give their honest opinions. You still have some hope for the movie untile it completely shatters your expectations. This movie looks like the old bollywood movies cheap, over rated or whatever the quality their movies quality has definately gone up. Neither the actors in this film look attractive enough to go for this movie nor can you say that their acting is good enought that one would decide to go for that…its the same old lollywood crap with cheesey’ness, same fashion faux pas and songs looking like they’ve been ripped of straight from bollywood movie…so why would one like to watch it? or even think about watching it? people know the difference between good and bad here…the other movie BOL looks boring and depressing yet people are waiting for that one and not this one..because they know that if they can watch good quality and better bollywood films of this same gener then why waste money on this one.
Re: Reema Khan 'Love Mein Ghum'
I am sure the movie is going to be the typical song and dance with some melodrama sprinkled here and there much like her first one but I still have to give her props for investing in a failing industry. Not many have the guts to do that. So 2 thumbs up for trying to hit a home run. I do wish for her sake that it does well.
Re: Reema Khan ‘Love Mein Ghum’
Re: Reema Khan ‘Love Mein Ghum’
No, story wise bollywood movies in general are still cheap and overrated, pretty much the same way like this movie is. Yes, their technology skills have improved a lot, and thats it.
As for the songs part being ripped of from a bollywood movie…its more likely the other way around. Do i need to tell you how many Pakistani songs have been used in bollywood movies. (btw, i didnt want to make this a bollywood versus lollywood thing)
Like i said in my post, nobody is saying that you should like or watch this movie. I am just saying its the same crap like the one you watch in the name of bollywood.
PS. i am always amazed when i see Pakistani bollywood fans defending bollywood as if they are defending their own honour. 
chill, i am sorry if i offended you :halo:
Re: Reema Khan ‘Love Mein Ghum’
*Firstly, No one is defending Bollywood over here - I say the same to all the loyal fans of Ash, Srk etc…that its not a big deal to critisize the actors their work etc…so one shouldn’t really get overly excited about it. You’re entitled to your opinion and I am entitled to mine.
I wasn’t even talking about the story specifically…I meant the same thing i.e. their songs are better (and I know its not just the Lollywood songs but also Japanese songs etc)…I am not talking about that - they just know how to make things more attractive and presentable. their same old repeated gags, stories etc are also packaged in a better way…and guess what it works. While our people (lollywood) take those same kind of cheoreographed songs and ruin them somehow.*
Re: Reema Khan 'Love Mein Ghum'
Just can't understand how some people have totally ripped apart Reema's effort after just watching a 2 minute promo. Agree the promo has not been put together really well. What were people expecting. Please don't compare Reema to Shoaib Mansoor. Both are making totally different genre of films. Also for God sack please lets get out of our Bollywood phobia. Why can't our films be taken on face value instead of comparing every small thing with Bollywood.
Some people have complained about the dresses and make up of the film. Like it or not but the clothes have been designed by one of Pakistan's top most designer HSY (Hassan Sheheryar Yasin). Make up is also done by renounced make up artists. For a number years deplilex and people like Khawar Riaz and other have done make up for films.
Coming to the print and sound quality. One sad fact is that after 64 years we neither have the latest film equipment like cameras or even more surprising we don't have even one international standard 35mm film laboratory. Still credit goes to our film makers that to improve the technical outlook of Pakistani films for of all the big Urdu films and even some Punjabi films the post production has been done overseas either from India or Thailand since 2002. This includes the film processing, DTS Sound and editing. What else can our film makers do.
A lot of people have complained about the script of the film. The film script has been adapted from Paulo Coelho's novel "Veronika Decides to Die". This is something new at least for Pakistani viewers.
As usual the choreography has been been ridiculed. In the past in a number of major Urdu productions Indian choreographers have been used. Can someone tell me how many dancing schools we have in Pakistan? or how many acting institutes we have in Pakistan. To be honest did not see anything wrong with the choreography in the few scenes from the promo
The fact that the film has a outdated look is true because "Love Mein Ghum" was shot in 2008/2009. One cannot understand why our film makers don't they release there film quickly. This problem is with every film maker and even Shoaib Mansoor. Its takes years to release a film in Pakistan.
I can say much more but the fact is please give the film a chance and go and at least watch it one. We need to support film industry because no one from outside is going to do that for us. In this current environment making and releasing a film in Pakistan is getting to be a miracle. All the best to this film and even though film might not be to everyone's exceptions.
Re: Reema Khan 'Love Mein Ghum'
^ Don't disguise your reply to all my posts by making it sound it general...its obvious you're reply in response of my posts.
Re: Reema Khan 'Love Mein Ghum'
- Aren’t crazy Gujjar movies also an effort? Funny how you say that one shouldn’t judge by a two minute promo – well then why are the promos released if people should judge a film by just looking at the promos? Too much said too much heard yet people do like to see a few clips of the movies and decide whether to go watch the film or not...I don’t know how you go about it but the natural and obvious way that probably everyone follows is by watching the promos. Aren’t B-grade bollywood movies effort as well? Why don’t people go and watch those by not judging them by their “2 minute promo” who know they might end of having a good story...even if its not made properly or shown properly. **
- Why shouldn’t Shoaib Mansoor be compared to Reema both of them have been in the industry long enough, both of them have made a film before and both of them are ready to release their second movie now. Genre of a film doesn’t matter...what matters is how you present your film. Shoaib Mansoors films might be slow, serious and depressing but they aren’t as arty either. Plus how many films are made in Pakistan anyways that we need to start putting them in different categories now? If these people who make the so called commercial lollywood movies differently giving it their own signature identity maybe then people would stop comparing the two movies – was Khuda kay liyeh compared to any bollywood movie before its released? Was anyone expecting it to be as good in quality, technicalities as the present bollywood movies? No but one did really want to support the film and watch it because people believed that that film was probably the break through...something Pakistanis would proudly say that its their film...and give the guy a break he hasn’t worked as much as the Indian directors but he tried...and its not a gujjar film thank god for that...so everyone did make sure that they watch it – it might have not been released overseas (maybe on time) but people got DVDs from Pakistan and watched it. There would have been a same kind of reaction if she would have tried something different...but she has gone the bollywood way so why not compare. And incase you didn’t check out the second option the song has been sung by a “bollywood singer sunidhi chauhan”. Its weird when people compare films that are a bit better then the usual gujjar movies saything that at least they’re trying and the effort should be appreciated that they aren’t making those gujjar movies now but at the same time they don’t want the film to be compared to bollywood films because of the obvious reasons but now they don’t even want people to compare a film with other Pakistani films either...as far as i know be it khuda kay liyeh or bol both the movies were talking about realistic issues but in a very commercial way because both the films might not have choreographed songs and all but both do have songs etc...and made to look commercial films – but obviously we aren’t there as yet so our commercial films don’t really have a definition; Gujjar films watched by a wide spread lower class people, commercial films aren’t really made properly as yet...and films like Ramchand...are the ones that are some what of arty genre. **
- No one really cares who does the makeup as long as it looks good. No one cares if the dresses are designed by HSY or some new comer designer as long as they look good...You can either say that HSY wasn’t paid enough or maybe he just lost his touch. And don’t tell me that depilex and kahawar riaz have done makeup for gujjar movies...even that momi guy doesn’t seem to have his own sense of style he’s wearing a bandana with glasses (like salman khan)...and a kurta with jeans...you still say we shouldn’t compare when everything is going that way only?**
- If the filmmakers are so much into film making and want to “revive” the industry for which they can find ways to make investments into film making then maybe they can even try to get the latest equipment...one at a time maybe...**
- It might have been adapted and all but it sure seems to have been turned and twisted to fit the typical bollywood/desi frame as well. **
- I don’t know about you but i know quite a few people who have learned dancing from abroad and have tried their luck in Pakistan in hope of making some changes but no luck. And does anyone really need dance schools, you know it (maybe) and even i know it that our youth is much better at dancing on bollywood songs on mendhis even without the help of choreographers...and even the Indian choreographers can’t do much about the steps if the songs lyrics are really bad...and so is the music. And if they do then our actors can’t even dance and do those steps properly...they seem like moving on counts which is visible through their body language. You didn’t but i clearly saw the guy going one two, one two one two and turn...in his head. Without any institutes or anything we’re still been able to get some really good talent so can that really be used as an excuse? Not saying that we don’t need any but how many of our television actors that do good say that they’ve learned how to act from in institute or done theatre? **
- You might be right about that out dated look bit but you can’t just tell people to not say anything about the film and expect them to appreciate the effort just like that just because she managed to release the film... the truth is that it will take a lot more than just one or two average non gujjar films to revive the industry...just by taking Hsy to do your costumes and dipelex to do your makeup doesn’t make a film complete what about the songs? They still sound awful the lyrics are not up to the mark. Even the music is the same old truck driver sort of only a bit advanced then before. The dialogs still sound so fake and theatrical. Momi rana’s acting is theatrical as well...same goes for Reema herself. **
- *Obviously there are so many people who would give the movie a chance and go and watch it which it entirely their decision and they should do it but that doesn’t mean that I don’t voice my opinions...I am here for that and I can’t agree to anything just because people want and expect me to..
**
*I don't want to create fights or arguments here but I just seem to have an opinion about this film...I might be wrong who knows when and after the film releases i might even go and watch it if there are good reviwes about it...I don't really mind watching a good film in any language (as long as i understand it) by any countries film makers...by i seriously think that people should realize that if the Pakistan film makers try and go the bollywood film making way and try making the films that way then there would be comparisions but if they do their own thing their own way then there wont be any comparisions either...

Bcoz Reema is not as experienced in field of direction as Shoaib Mansoor is. He is a trained director from PTV (from the era, when PTV used to trained directors at its academy, and no single shot was aired without rehearsals). Shoaib Mansoor had produced Fifty Fifty, Unkahi, Sunehre Din, Silver Jubilee Show, Guitar 93 (and almost all the videos of Vital signs), Alpha Bravo Charlie before directing Khuda Ke Liye.
Re: Reema Khan 'Love Mein Ghum'
So much fighting over a Reema Khan movie. C'mon people. Let's watch it and then you can discuss based on the story/acting etc. if it was worth watching or not.

That makes no sense at all...if Shoaib Mansoor has been a director then Reema has acted and as far as I know, you can learn all these things thats why you see actors (in bollywood) also directing now a days without any degree like how some of the directors there have and all...She must have learned it along the way while doing all those cheap movies back in the day and maybe thats why she knew she'd be able to do it the first time so she did...and Reema to directed some other film before this one so its not that complicated.

Acting and directions are two different things. Its a fact that actors turned directors have an advantage over other doctors. Sahira Kazmi, Samina Peerzada, Shamim Ara, Sangeeta are the best examples from our own country, but formal training and experience really makes difference. Its not fair to stand Reema with Shoiab Mansoor just after her first directorial debut. She will have to prove herself before reaching level of Shoaib Mansoor. Uss waqt tak haath zara holaa (halka) rakho Badshaho....
Re: Reema Khan 'Love Mein Ghum'
Comparing Reema with Shoaib Mansoor is like Comparing Speilberg with Brett Ratner while one is a critically acclaimed director who has shown the strength of his direction time and again the other has only focused on essentially commercial films. So please don't compare Shoaib Mansoor with Reema you not only look ridiculous yourself but in doing so you bring down Shoaib Mansoor from his level of creativity to Reema's
