Seeming the tickets to K3G was sold out, i had to spend my £5.65 watching this turd.. it was so shite that i really wanted to walk out!! Om Puri was funny, Navin Nischol played an over fat ugly sonofabitch fucking arsehole superhero named Manu!! I think bollywood is trying to cash in on the India meets hollywood humour!! East is East was excellent, American Desi was a bit pointless but Bollywood Calling is a big pile of shite with a cherry on top.. dont even waste ure money on this crap!!

that bad huh!! Guess what K3G wasn't that great either!

Congress thats the Ultimate Insult Considering that K3G has a huge fan following here

I spent $10 on K3G so I have a right to my opinions. I am a big fan of KKHH and K3g can't beat that film especially with the scene "Jan Gan Man". That was pathetic with the goras standing up to the song and I have no idea what was the whole point except maybe to make the desi crowd be nostalgic/patriotic.

yeah, some of it was over the top, but overall the movie was tight, I actually almost started to cry 3 times during the movie (almost, I said.).

Kuch kuch hota hai was groundbreaking, but K3G brought out some strong emotions from the audience, despite a few minor flaws.

I'm talking about K3G in the above post, not Bolly calling

If you need things to go from the lowest bad to even worse - call the Eros muppet squad! The Bollywood Calling DVD is again a new low. They've gone back to the squashed video look similar to the first release of Aashiq, Kasoor and CCCC – actual 1.85 video appears as 2.35:1. And the 102mins film is squeezed onto a singled layered disc. Video is very poor, blurry with faded colours. Sound is mono (original was DTS! )

No wonder IW has dropped the price to $8.99.

I wonder is there nothing one can do abotu the crap Eros keeps putting out. I mean are there are any laws to protect the consumer. What about the Better Business Bureau, is there anything they coulddo abotu this?

this sucks it really does... yesterday i rented the bawandar dvd and ali u r right it was such a crap one. the colours were so dark and attention to detail very little..... i felt for a moment it was my eye glasses..... eros wake up shine give us some quality man......

Bollywood Calling DVD preview

.. its not as bad as Bawandar or Chandni Bar but still pretty bad.

ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE DVD FOR SUCH A VISUALLY STUNNING SCENES IN BAWANDAR...WATCHED IT LAST NIGH ......I THOUGHT THE MOVIE WAS GREAT...IS IT A TRUE STORY

Which showing did you go to? I was up in Manchester for a few days and went to see K3G at the Trafford Centre on the Sunday - however whilst standing in the ticket queue all the K3G tickets were being sold out. :-/

Anyway, then went to see Bollywood Calling.. I liked it - there was something missing, but also something about it which I really liked...

What spoilt it for me was a bunch of brats who were sitting in the back two rows, smoking (in a non-smoking cinema), chucking food at each other and shouting at each other. When will these people ever grow up or learn any manners?

I watched Bollywood Calling - it's a pretty good film, "something different" to quote the film! It’s not to be compared to East is East or American Desi - Bollywood Calling is unique insight to Bollywood film making - all its doing is making fun of itself - and it works pretty well. Om Puri is class as always and others give a decent performance for what is a low budget movie.

Some class lines in the film;

‘I’m a beginner cameraman, once I become famous, I can also be late”

“Is there no such thing as characterisation?”

question: “Sir, what expression for me?”
answer: “Bastard I kill you, all gondas, b***** I kill you!”

“I’m popular, rich, so I sell myself like a cheap whore... ...at one point they would at least attempt to make a good film, but now there’s absolutely no pretence”

“verrry different”

..now how many of these line run true for today’s films? :bored:

Ali :sleep:

hahahahah that is the showing i watched... were the ones that ended up walking out half way through the film!! hahahah wat a small world!!

BOLLYWOOD CALLING, TIME TO TAKE A DUMP,WHAT A PIECE OF CRAP.
