I wasnt easy on myself - Bollywood Actress Lara Dutta

Lara Dutta may look stunning in Blue, but getting fit for the role was something she took seriouslyLIFE COULDN’T BE better for Lara Dutta. As she plays the heroine in the multi-starrer movie Blue starring Akshay Kumar, Sanjay Dutt and Zayed Khan. Excerpts from an interview:

You have been in a lot of situational comedies, is this your forte? Well, I guess I am good at it. That’s why directors who are looking for an actress who needs to perform comedy. As well as hold their own in front of actors like Govinda, Anil, etc. - come to me. So, directors like Priyadarshan or David Dhawan have that kind of faith in me, which is fantastic and I also enjoy comedy.

Blue Movie Review | Blue Movie is is kick ass

Blue, the most awaited movie of the year - with its canvas as huge as the ocean - comes alive on screen this Friday. Like every biggie, this one also comes with the baggage of monumental expectations.

Let me keep it short - you haven't watched anything like this on the Hindi screen before. Never ever!

Anthony D'Souza puts his skills and the financial resources to best use. Blue is not merely a stunning looking film, it's also a well-structured film. Most importantly, it's a solid entertainer that packs in so much in those 1.58 hours.

Blue is set in the sun-soaked white sand beaches of Bahamas. Sagar [Sanjay Dutt] is a simpleton, while his friend Aarav [Akshay Kumar] is a rich, ambitious businessman.

Sagar's brother Sameer aka Sam [Zayed Khan] has inadvertently managed to rankle the mafia in Bangkok [Rahul Dev]. He flees Bangkok and arrives in Bahamas.

If you're a die-hard moviegoer, you'd draw parallels with a lot of international projects [especially The Deep] that were set in the ocean. In Bollywood, flashes of the Dharmendra-Jeetendra starrer Samraat cross your mind instantaneously, but comparing the two is akin to comparing chalk and cheese.

Blue grabs your attention from its opening titles itself. The marine life, which you may've watched on National Geographic Channel or Animal Planet, comes alive in all splendour at the start itself.

The story is uncomplicated and Anthony D'Souza garnishes it beautifully. If the aquatic life keeps your eyes wide open, the action sequences are sure to make your jaws drop to your knees. The bike chase at the start, yet another chase subsequently, the chase soon after the interval [atop a running train] is simply astounding.

On the flip side, the climax could've had more impact. The villain's track looks clichéd, but you tend to overlook the minor aberration since the film never falls prey to mediocrity.

Anthony D'Souza is a director to watch. This film has style as well as substance. Also, it requires courage and conviction to think out of the box and most importantly, execute the material with panache. There's not much scope for music in an action thriller, yet A.R. Rahman's score suits the requirements. The Kylie Minogue track, Chiggy Wiggy, is already popular. Sanju and Lara's romantic track, Aaj Dil, is sensuous. The song at the end credits, Fiqrana, has a lot of energy.

Sound design [Resul Pookutty] is fantastic. Action scenes [James D Bomalick and R P Yadav] are a treat and, in fact, one of the mainstays of the film. Dialogues [Mayur Puri] are effective, while the screenplay [Anthony D'Souza and Jasmine D'Souza] is well thought-out, especially towards the second hour.

Sanjay Dutt carries his part well, although he looks very well-fed in some scenes. Akshay Kumar steals the show with a sterling performance. Zayed Khan is highly competent.

Lara Dutta has never looked so good before. you can't overlook Lara's small but significant contribution to the film. Katrina Kaif [special appearance] looks gorgeous and performs exceedingly well.Rahul Dev is first-rate. Kabir Bedi is hardly there.

On the whole, Blue has style as well as substance. The film has everything going in its favour, right from its incredible star cast to the superb action scenes to the hitherto unseen marine life to the tremendous hype and hoopla. At the box-office, Blue will strike like a hurricane in the festive week. It should set new benchmarks in days to come.

Final word? Go, grab a ticket, if you haven't booked one yet. This under-sea treasure hunt is a kickass film. A must-see for all those who love adventure flicks.

Will Lara Duttas bikini show pay off?

So much has been talked about Lara Dutta’s bikini show in her latest film Blue.

The former beauty queen worked really hard to fit into the two-piece cloth all for success. But the big question is will her dare-bare act pay off?

Many Bollywood actresses have donned bikini, and the latest being Kareena Kapoor in Kambakkht Ishq.

The film was criticised by the critics but Kareena came out triumphant, as its good opening ensured good collection. This time, it is Lara’s turn to try out the trick.

Donning a bikini is not as easy as it looks. Of course anybody who dares can wear it but how they carry off in the tiny piece of cloth is a different matter all together.

As far as the promos of Blue go, Lara has done an incredible job. More than just wearing it, she went beyond shores and explored the waters.
