Ritambhara Sahni of Belly Dance Institute Mumbai - Review on MS Dhoni



Hello , my name is Ritambhara Sahni and i am the founder at Belly Dance Institute Mumbai by Ritambhara Sahni. Well this is my review on MS Dhoni - the untold story. 

So, ...Azhar went and MS Dhoni released. An very inspirational movie i must say. Showed his struggle and the struggle was real...

 On Monday evening, 3rd October 2016 i was at imax vadala big screens watching ' Dhoni' - the untold story. Nice to learn about Dhoni's childhood. The film delves on Dhoni's childhood and how he got absorbed in cricket, his struggle in balancing his work life and his passion, his brief romance, his sincerity to the game and everything he did in life. I definitely found the movie inspirational.

 However the below  video is of 5 controversies Dhoni was a part of and the movie did not include those. A very long movie - 3 and half hours and stretched but the movie was 'inspirational' for sure and did keep you engaged. We are all humans and have a good and bad side. The movie however shows only his good side and yes it made me wonder what happened to a bad side ???


 
I admire MS Dhoni and Sushant Rajput played the role perfectly,infact i believe that this is his best performance in his career. However the above video is a video of 5 controversies Dhoni was a part of and were not shown in the movie.



Do read the various comments that people have passed below the video....People do really love Dhoni and so do i....:)

 Some comments that i so agree with are;

 --This is the untold story not the things we know...i think we all know about these controversies but the movie is about the things we do not know about.

 -- It is not possible to show an entire life in 3 hours duration. One should appreciate instead of criticizing.

 -- It is about the struggle to be a good cricketer and not about media gossip so the movie is just fine.

 -- his brother was shown in part one. When Satya Prakash came to his home  for offering tc job his brother stood behind him just watch carefully.

 --- We all know about those controversies very well but this is not the story of controversies...they want to show how a Jharkhand boy came out as the most sucessful captain in the world of cricket....his journey, a middle class families journey the hardels of life, the passion, the friendship , the love....which we have no idea . This is the best biopic India has had so far...not because of MS Dhoni or Sushant Singh Rajput because i love movies, i love cricket and im a proud Indian.

Ritambhara Sahni of Belly Dance Institute Mumbai - review on Pink movie

Ritambhara Sahni belly dance institute Mumbai
Ritambhara Sahni of Belly Dance Institute Mumbai
Students review on Pink movie
Hello everyone , My name is Ritambhara Sahni and i run belly dance institute Mumbai by Ritambhara Sahni - A Belly Dance Class in Mumbai since 2005. I am a complete fun loving person and many dance forms and belly dance has empowered me in ways in which i would i have never felt if i would not have danced in my life. I feel really proud when i see my students belly dance so beautifully and i feel a victory each time when my student comes and tells me about her realization on how belly dance has empowered her. As i teach the higher levels at my belly dance institute Mumbai i see how belly dance has changed the relationships of my students with not only themselves but their bodies as well. These are ' Ritambhara Sahni's happiest moments' as a belly dance teacher. My belly dance class in Mumbai is place to not only to come and belly dance but a place to feel empowered and have fun at the same time. The feeling of empowerment has to be realized by oneself through belly dance and that is the only and best way.

 So, On Septemper 22nd - around that time i saw the movie Pink and i just had to write my review on it.  I was procrastinating but on 24th September a student of mine posted her review on Pink movie on her Facebook wall. Well, from the 1st day i met her, she herself had the energy to contagiously empower you and is one of the most intelligent , beautiful and genuine people that i have met. When i read her review , i was so amazed. she put down everything out there that i thought and wanted to say  in such a great way that i just dint want to write my review anymore.

 I waited for my class to happen on Friday evening at my Colaba center to take her permission if i could post her review and i was so happy when she agreed. Learnt from her that we have similar lives in certain aspects of our lives. I am so proud and happy to meet so many wonderful, deep and intelligent girls like her and get inspired by them and inspire them with belly dance.
 Girls and Ladies - you have to read the way in which she has written it - not only is she strong as a person but her review itself empowers you....
So here is her empowering review on movie Pink

Ritambhara Sahni reviews on movies - Pink movie
by her student at Colaba


 Forced to be liberal???
I saw the movie PINK last week. Oh boy, it sure was an experience. A movie which questions the archaic and stereotypical mindset of the society. I rushed to see the movie the very next day of its release- fearing that it would be out of theatres if am lazy…This wasn’t a typical masala movie to pull in the crowd you see.
Was happy when the movie picked up collection through word of mouth publicity, social media and brilliant reviews.
The presence of Amitabh Bachchan sure helped the movie’s visibility.
But if you notice – the names of three female protagonist appear first followed by Amitabh Bachchan.
Also whenever a movie revolves around a particular incident – it is shown right at the beginning or some show flashes of it intermittently. Here the incident is shown last – when the end credit rolls.
Belly dance institute Mumbai by Ritambhara Sahni blog
Belly dance institute Mumbai by Ritambhara Sahni - founders review written by our student at colaba

 As the message of the movie takes precedence over the incident itself or rather it isn’t restricted to one particular event.
Showing at the beginning could have clouded the audience judgement- here one views with an absolute clean slate…
A masterstroke which could have been conceived only by Aniruddha Roy Chowdhury and Shoojit Sircar.
I loved when the dialogues of the movie have been trolled and shared and there have been discussions around it.
But everyone seem to have missed one dialogue which struck me the most.

Pink movie review
There is a scene when the character Falak is narrating this incident to her ex-boyfriend and he says that he could have expected this to happen to Minal and not Falak…she questions- what he meant by that..He says…I CAN EITHER BE TRUTHFUL OR LIBERAL.
Oh boy…that hit hard!!! Why? Did it somewhere crack open the society’s fake liberal veil???
Since the movie has kinda achieved a cult status…through the week I heard people asking others- ‘ Did you watch the movie PINK??’ and if the response would have been a NO from a guy...the reaction from the other side would be ‘Oh you seem to be conservative- not your kind of movie, U seem to be the regressive kind, a friend went on to say,,,ohh aren’t they all male chauvinist anyways.
Belly dance institute Mumbai testimonial on Ritambhara Sahni
Ritambhara Sahni belly dance
Pink movie review

 I need to STOP here and repeat…This movie reflects the double standards of the SOCIETY and that includes BOTH- MEN AND WOMEN.
So lets not use this movie for the sake of men bashing…
Character assassination basis the length of the skirt , timings and social circle have been done since time immemorial by the so called purist women folk as well.
What is sad is that majority claim to be liberal to ‘fit in’, to avoid a social backlash.
But the fact remains that each maintain a segregated journal for the society and family.
A woman who speaks her mind, is opinionated and is expressive in her actions is cool to hangout with in a pub but one cannot imagine one’s sister in that mould just like the character Rajveer in the movie.
The qualities in a women seeked to ‘ hook up’ and date/marry are differentiated.
This ‘ pretendence’ of being a liberal hurts the most as it leads to a perennially hushed confused state of being.
That’s lethal .
This would just create a society of sad caricatures and not people of true character.
Liberal is when you embrace it in its true spirit- Not for the fear of 'being an outcast, ‘to fit in’ or appear to be an evolved being.
Long journey for sure but lets BEGIN…

Ritambhara Sahni of Belly Dance Institute Mumbai - Review on Selfie - English Play

DAY :  Sunday Evening 

DATE : 21st August 2016

VENUE : Sophia Bhabha Hall, Mumbai

TIME : 7.30 pm

On 21st August, 2016, Sunday evening I was at Sophia Bhabha Hall. An auditorium where i have organised , choreographed and directed my own dance shows. A place close to my heart . Know this place in and out. I went for this play that evening called ' Selfie'  - directed by the most beautiful and talented /Tanaaz  Irani. 
Ritambhara Sahni belly dance
Ritambhara Sahni review on Selfie - English Play
As i reached the venue with my very old and dear friend - 'Cyrus Dastoor' who is a big director and producer in Parsi and Gujrati theatre , i saw Paritosh Painter [producer of the play ] chatting with  an extremely talented dancer from my time - Bhaktiar Irani who is also now an actor. Used to be a fan of his dancing and now all his work on television. Tanaaz and Bhaktiar are such an awesome talented couple.  Paritosh Painter from Campus serial long ago who eventually made such a big name in theatre. He and Ninad Kamat of course. Amazing actors and have done some beautiful plays with Dinyar Contractor. Well , i also saw Mr. Dinyar Contractor and it was so amazing to watch him come in early for the play . His role as the principal in the movie 'KHILADI' still makes me laugh so much. Also saw Paintal with his son waiting outside with everyone waiting  for the play to start. Was lovely to see all these talented people.

 I got to know about this play from a strong and beautiful personality i recently met and is an amazing person - Priya Malik from big boss fame. I am so in love with her intelligence and so proud to meet her as my student for belly dance at my institute - Belly Dance Institute Mumbai. It was so wonderful to watch her perform in this marvelous play and it was her first English play ever and it just dint feel that way. Her performance was so amazing and experienced. 
Belly Dance Institute Mumbai by Ritambhara Sahni

Well- Selfie is an impactfull play and it makes you laugh - there is a lot of comedy, makes you think at every point and it also shows you how strong women can be and their strength when they come together. The 5 women, initially meet and start to judge each other and just like in reality we all have something good and bad going in our lives so do they. However this judging eventually brings them to eventually realize and understand each others as strangers and each of them brings out the best in the others. I laughed and cried in this play. 

 Oh YES-- this play is extremely funny . Tanaaz Irani can make you laugh and how!!!! The  jugalbandi between Dimple Shah and Tanaaz Irani throughout the play makes you laugh so much and cry as well. They did create magic with their acting and jugalbandi. Dimple Shah mam was just so amazing.  Kishwar Merchant , Shweata Gulati played their roles really well and Priya Malik looked so glamorous playing an actress and she so suited the role. Her acting was powerful and so apt. 
Ritambhara Sahni's belly dance institute Mumbai
Ritambhara Sahni of Belly Dance Institute Mumbai - review on Selfie - English Play
The play is nothing about taking a selfie except when they all positively unite towards the end and take several selfies. A play for all females to witness. There is a lot to learn from this as well emotionally and mentally. What i follow and have realized once again watching this play  is that by judging someone i have always created negativity within me. We all have good and bad in our lives and no one is perfect but if we can be there for someone and bring them out of their sorrow without being judgmental...will always earn us those positive points from the universe.

 I loved the way Tanaaz Irani introduces everyone in the end and still continues to make us laugh and gives the credit of her acting career to Mr. Dinyar Contractor who she has worshiped and worked with ever since the age of 8 years. 
This play is superb and its a must watch.  

 PS : Tanaaz Irani plays the role of a 56 year old Parsi woman but looks so beautiful ...i have no words .

Ritambhara Sahni of Belly Dance Institute Mumbai - My Review on Dishoom Movie

Hello everyone, My name is Ritambhara Sahni and run Belly Dance Institute Mumbai by Ritambhara Sahni.I love watching Bollywood movies and sometimes Hollywood too.... This blog is dedicated to all my -[ Ritambhara Sahni 's Reviews on her favorite movies which she feels others should also watch as they would love to watch the same]

So here goes Ritambhara Sahni's - review on Dishoom Movie.



Ritambhara Sahni review
Ritambhara Sahni - Belly Dance Institute Mumbai movie review

This movie is definately a MUST WATCH... engaging from the start to the end. It has action, comedy, suspense but yeah not so much of romance. Its just fun and thrilling from the start to the end. It has interesting cars and helicopters.

Ritambhara Sahni testimonial
Ritambhara Sahni - review on Dishoom
 

One scene that i cant stop thinking about even after the movie and spoke about it right after the movie got over was Akshay Kumar's scene. Oh gosh, he played a 'gay' in a special appearance . If i am not mistaken , i guess for the first time. His body , his look does not support a gay charector but its his acting all the way. You laugh the most in that scene. Look for the scene where he pouts in a selfie with the cricketer.

Ritambhara Sahni from belly dance institute Mumbai - Dishoom movie review


John's charector is very close to Abhishek Bachan in Dhoom and Varun Dhawan is very close to Uday Chopra in Dhoom and they do full justice. The chemistry between them gives you a great feel throughout in terms of humour and emotion.

Jacqueline- i love her really and she plays an interesting role of this tomboyish girl and looks preety and amazing thrughout. Songs were amazing and Jacqueline and Varun dance really so well. Look out for the song - 'Sau tarah ke'

Parineeta Chopra was a surprise in the finale song which is a must watch...dont be a spoil sport and leave the theatre at that.  - ' Jaaneman aah '-- awesome awesome song and dance :)

Ritambhara Sahni of belly dance institute Mumbai - dishoom movie review


But above all it was so so awesome to watch Akshaye Khanna after so long and this time in a villian's role. He was great a s usual.

Movie is centered around India's lead cricket player who is kidnapped by a high profile bookie before the Indo- Pakistan match finals to be played in the UAE to make up his loss to turn the game over by kidnpping the lead cricketer. Our very strong muscle man - Kabir Shergil [John Abraham ]who is from India's special Task force eventually teams up with Varun Dhawan [Junaid Ansari ] to rescue India's greatest cricketer ever in the Middle East in less than 36 hours before the final Indo- Pakistan match takes on.

You will surly fall in love with Saqib Saleem [ The lead cricketer -Viraj ]for his acting and  the role of patriotism as a cricketer and a lead batsman for the country.

So does he make it to the final Indo-Pakistan match ??? Watch the movie and you shall know...

Ritambhara Sahni of Belly Dance Institute Mumbai - Madari movie review

Hi- I'm Ritambhara Sahni from belly dance Institute Mumbai ---This is my blog for my favorite movie reviews.

Ritambhara Sahni - review on Madari movie

Madari is a movie of a common man who out of no choice has to do wrong to prove what is right. 
The movie gave me the same feel from this movie ' A Wednesday' which had Naseeruddin Shah in the lead role [ again a movie about a common man who had made the system do what is right for the country]. So if you have not seen Madari - go watch it, it truly shows the power of a common man and how a common man can move the whole system if he wants to along with  the power of social media.
Belly Dance Institute Mumbai by Ritambhara Sahni
Ritambhara Sahni - review on Madari Movie

Irrfan Khan [in the lead ] can really do anything, he is known to be thought provoking. But this time around it was also nice to watch him love 2 small boys. His love for them looked so real and can touch anyone's heart.
We all love our child and Irrfan Khan's acting as a father to a 7 year old son is so amazing to watch. An extremely loving father and his son was really all he had. A struggle about a father to bring justice for his son's death in a natural calamity is really the whole story.

belly dance institute Mumbai by Ritambhara Sahni
Ritambhara Sahni of belly dance institute Mumbai - Madari movie review

He kidnaps the Home Minsters son and the small boy who played that role was just amazing himself. [ Vishesh Bansal]. Oh my God this kid really acts so well and so real. The movie is also a must watch to just see the interaction between this kid and Irrfan.

Jimmy Shergil is always so nice to watch, an experienced actor who has proved himself in different roles. He plays the cop and was lovely to watch him in this role. His dialogue in the end was impactful when he says to his fellow cop -' the result will actually always be what everyone wants'
Belly Dance Institute Mumbai by ritambhara Sahni
Ritambhara Sahni of belly dance institute Mumbai - review Madari movie
Tushar Dalvi [ a great great actor ], was amazing to watch him too and but of course he did perfect justice to his role as the home minister and father.
The climax scene with Nitesh Pandey [ the news reporter ] is definitely to wait until the end to watch where Irrfan Khan makes the home minister say all that , that the home Minister should have never uttered but has no choice but to give up his career for the love of his son.
Ritambhara Sahni belly dance institute Mumbai
Ritambhara Sahni review on Madari movie

And yes, i would not have been happy if the home ministers son would not have hugged Irrfan Khan while parting with him. It was a moment that the audience surly wants to see else the audience would not go home happy.
An extremely well made and gripping movie. Its a MUST WATCH.
