The year 2008 was not so good for the box office collection, but the last week of the year provided the best performance of the year 2008. It was the release of the Ghajini on 25th December which changed the trends. Here are the lists of ten movies of the year 2008 which I liked the most:

1> Number one is Ghajini:

Not only because of the performance on the box office, it strikes me due to the superb love story between Aamir Khan and Asin Thottumkal. The performance of both the actors is superb in the movie. It went out to break all the records in the very first week only.

2> Number two is Singh is King:

One of the biggest blockbuster hit of the year was Singh is King. It showed once again the on screen chemistry between Akshay Kumar and sweat Katrina Kaif. During the first two weeks after the release of the movie, it earned more than 100 crore in India and abroad. The music of Singh is King was superb.

3> Number three is Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na:

Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na is one of the finest movies of the year. The on screen chemistry between the debutant Imran Khan and Genelia D’Souza was superb and liked by most of the people.

4> Number four is Jodhaa-Akbar:

This year Hritik Roshan and Aishwarya Rai rocked the big screen with their superb performance in the movie Jodhaa-Akbar. This movie created a bit of controversy and thus caused a bit of violence too in some parts of the country.

5> Number five is Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi:

Although I personally did not like the movie but my girl friend liked this movie very much. Shahrukh Khan did the superb acting in both the look, while Anushka Sharma was superb in her first movie. The best supporting actor in the movie was Vinay Pathak. He did the fantastic job in the movie.

6> Number six is A Wednesday:

A movie which in fact shocked me is A Wednesday. Superb performance by Naseeruddin Shah and Anupam Kher made this movie as an excellent one.  Though I did not get the chance to watch it in the theatre but when I watched this movie I became a bit surprised and I regret that I missed watching it in the theatre.

7> Number seven is Dostana:

Although I did not liked the movie but it was one of the biggest hit of the year 2008. The reason for which I did not like the movie is because I did not liked the story, but I liked the superb performance by all the three lead actors Abhishek Bachchan, John Abraham and Priyanka Chopra.

8> Number eight is Jannat:

The superb performance by Sonal Chauhan and one superb song “Zara Sa Mujh Ko” made this movie as a hot one. The movie Jannat was based on the controversial death of the cricket coach Bob Woolmer.

9> Number nine is Rock On:

Farhan Akhtar rocked the big screen with his acting and singing for the first time in this movie. Arjun Rampal and Shahana Goswami both were superb in the movie. It became one of the biggest hit because of its superb story.

10> Number Ten is Golmaal Returns:

One of the most talked about movie of the year was Ajay Devgan starer Golmaal Returns, which was actually a sequel of the movie Golmaal which was a big hit in the year 2006. Although it did not become so much big but still people like this movie.

Please do let us know your views about the movies of the year 2008.

I am a big lover of the Hindi Movies. My favorite time pass is to watch movies with friends, either in home or in theater. One day one of my friends asked me about the top five movies of India which any how played major role in changing the theme of the movies. We discussed a lot on this and finally I came up with these five big Indian movies:

1> Mother India: The biggest hit of 1957. A movie directed by Mehboob Khan. Lead role was played by Nargis with Sunil Dutt, Raaj Kumar and Rajendra Kumar. This movie left a big impact on the society. The movie goes ahead in the flash back of the Radha, played by Nargis. The film did the business of over INR. 40 million. After this movie Sunil Dutt married to Nargis.

2> Mughal-E-Azam: One bigger success of Bollywood, just after three years of Mother India. Mughal-E-Azam came in 1960. This movie actually took 9 years to finish. It was a super duper hit. It broke the record of Mother India, which was later broken by Sholay. The movie was the love story of the Mughal prince Salim, who later became Jahangir. This movie was directed by K. Asif. and the lead roles are played by Dilip Kumar, Prithviraj Kapoor, and Madhubala.

3> Sholay: The movie which has changed the mainstream cinema of India, later it was recognised as the “Film of the Millennium” by BBC India in 1999. This movie has earned around US $ 60 million. The film was produced by G.P. Sippy and directed by his son Ramesh Sippy. Lead roles are played by Sanjeev Kumar, Dharmendra, Amitabh Bachchan, Hema Malini, Jaya Bhaduri, and Amjad Khan. Gabbar Singh became the well known name in each and every house of India.

4> Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge: DDLJ was one of the bigger hits of 1995. The movie was directed by Aditya Chopra. Lead roles are played by Shahrukh Khan, Kajol, Amrish Puri and Anupam Kher. It is one of my all time favorite movie. I watched this movie 23 times in theater so far and will again go to watch it if I found it playing in any of my near by theaters. The story of the movie was the love story of two NRI’s which was liked by every one.

5> Lagaan: The first major hit of the 21st century in Bollywood. It was released on 15th June 2001. It was the third Hindi language film to be nominated for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film. The movie was directed by Ashutosh Gowarikar, and the lead role was played by Aamir Khan, Gracy Singh, Rachel Shelley, and Paul Blackthorne. The film was the story of the 19th century. Director of the movie Lagaan, Ashutosh Gowariker, once said that it was almost impossible to make Lagaan. This movie Lagaan was the India’s official nomination for the 2002 Oscars.

Although there are so many films made in Mumbai in Hindi, but I decided to make this list based on the discussion with my friends. I hope you would love this post and I will be waiting for your comment on this.

I always prefer to watch movies in my spare time. I was a bit curious about how videos are produced? I always wanted to join any course which can guide me through the video production module.

Last night I was watching TV and I was a bit upset due to the terror attack by a few terrorist in South Mumbai. During that period I thought to search for video production course, if there are any available. Surprisingly, I reached to the Chicago’s Video Production Service website.

This is the website of the Video Production, Interactive and Presentation Services Company. The importance of this company is that it help users to provide any shoot, as well as if you already have the footage ready then they will bring out the magic from that. Richter Studios will train the user to the post production thing which will bring the magic out from the footage.

So Chicago’s Video Production Service can be a useful resource to the person who needs to go ahead with some video techniques in their life, either on the presentation or on the website.
