So all in all, the technical production of the movie and the good performances (for me, Shah Rukh Khan!) make the movie worth watching. Even if Trimurti doesn't live up to your expectations, I think it's definitely worth watching once, and the cinema is the best way to enjoy it the most. If you've already seen Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge (which I'm sure you have!), I think that Trimurti is the only other movie playing right now that is worth-watching (I didn't like AHAT too much)! The response of the people on the whole, so far, has been good. A LOT of people have seen Trimurti at the cinema, and there was a positive response from the audience at the show that I went to (clapping during intermission and at the end). So to wrap up, I think that, due to the Mukta Arts banner and Shah Rukh's popularity, Trimurti should easily become a hit, if not a super-hit.
You've gotta be JoKING!! How can u enjoy this movie?? Me and My friends went 2 c Trimurti instead of AKHAKT!! This movie is a joke!! Me and my friends cried more than Jackie! We thoght about the proper Saja for Ghai and M. Anand. There is only one saja for them.... Making them watch the movie.
If you watch this movie on video, you'll be missing half the
movie! This is one of those few movies that can only be enjoyed fully on
the big screen. Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge is an excellent film and it
is worth watching in the cinema, guaranteed. Shah Rukh once again proves
that he is the most talented actor in Bombay today (as well as a damn
good dancer, too!)
the main purpose of most movies is ENTERTAINMENT. DDLJ is
entertainment from start to finish.

I just saw Akele Hum Akele Tum.....I wasn't too impressed. I was really
bored at times and just wanted to leave. The movie was much like Mahesh
Bhatt's "Kaash" with Jackie Shroff and Dimple. The performances in AHAT
were not that good, except that of the little boy.
I thought Mansoor Khan was going to make a film about the role of the
repressed housewife, and how her wishes and dreams of a career would come
to play. But in the movie, Manisha is somehow made out to be a
villainess. Every problem that Aamir faces is made to be a consequence of
Manisha's actions . Everyone in the the theater, including me, hated her
for deserting that little boy. When the boy visits Manisha for the first
time after 2 years, and Aamir later on asks the boy what they talked
about, the boy replies, "Meine mummy ko bola app duniya ke sabse achi
mummy hai", everyone in the theater laughed.
The songs were okay, but that song with Anu Malik trying to sing in
English made me laugh, even though it was supposed to be a sad number.
Aamir looked too young to play the father of a 7 year old boy..they looked
more like brothers. Manisha, IMO, only looks pretty when she's crying.
Otherwise she has way too much make up on for the rest of the film (I know
that she was supposed to be portraying an Indian starlet, but in one scene
her face looked like a big purple grape)
The only thing I really enjoyed during the movie were the takes on
Nadeem-Shravan and Gulshan Kumar...I was cracking up! Half of the movie
was Rangeela-ish, going inside the Bollywood film industry.
A lot of people were crying over the movie, but I didn't really find
anything to cry about...everything seemed so contrived and predictable. I
was only crying over my $7.
And what about Ram-jaane ? It pulled crowds in first week because of SRK's popularity after DDLJ, but truth was out soon, and the movie is limping to the completion of third week. Not doing well in **any** place !!

-Barsaat - winner of worst film in Indian film making history. Would appreciate the directors name, wish to challenge him to a dual to the death for wasting 2.5 hours of my life.
Time Magnetics (India) Limited proudly present their latest venture, GOVINDA in and as GAMBLER. Gambler co-stars Aditya Panscholi, Shilpa Shetty, Raj Babbar, Saeed Jaffrey, and Gulshan Grover. Produced by Dhirijlal Shah, directed by Dayal Nihlani, and music by the current top music director ANU MALIK. GAMBLER has been delayed for practically one whole year now, and it is scheduled for release December 8, 1995. It will be nice now to see how a stale GOVINDA project will stand against AKELE HUM AKELE TUM and RAM-JAANE, releasing today December 1!
Comments from Akhlaq Hussain rec.movies.indian
Happy New Year to everyone, and on that note here is a post on some of the major films of 1995 and some to expect in 1996. Enjoy!
First I'll mention the major hits of 1995(in no particular order):
1.) KARAN-ARJUN (Director: Rakesh Roshan) 2.) BOMBAY (Director: Mani Ratnam) 3.) SABSE BADA KHILADI (Director: Umesh Mehra?) 4.) COOLIE NO. 1(Director: DAVID DHAWAN) 5.) RAJA (Director: Indra Kumar) 6.) RANGEELA (Director: Ram Gopal Verma) 7.) DILWALE DULHANIYA LE JAYANGE (Director: Aditya Chopra) 8.) HUM AAP KE HAN KAUN (Director: Sooraj Bartajya)-released in 1994, but played through most of 1995 in theatres Next I'll recap some of the major flops of the year, again they are in no particular order: 1.) MAJHDAAR (Director: Eesmayal Shroff?) 2.) SAUDA (Director:?) 3.) SAAJAN KI BAAHON MEIN (Director: ?) 4.) PREM (Director: Satish Kaushik) 5.) CRIMINAL (Director: Mahesh Bhatt) 6.) HULCHUL (Director: Anees Bazmee?) 7.) VEERGATI (Director: K. K. Singh) 8.) RAM SHASTRA (Director: Sanjay Gupta) 9.) ANGRAKSHAK (Director: Ravi Raja?)
Some films which did recover costs but were not real big
hits were: HAATHKADI, NAAJAYAZ, ANDOLAN, RAVAN-RAAJ, HUM DONO,
JALLAD, YAARANA, BARSAAT, and RAM-JAANE. There were not many
surprise hits in 1995, although 2 Mithun-starrers (Raavan-Raaj and
Jallad) were classified as major hits due to low budget costs
and high returns. It was true like most years that the audience
does not appreciate mediocre films made with little effort in
script or storyline, some examples were most DHARMENDRA films in
1995. Not one of his many films this year were classified as
hits, or even close to being hits. Maybe it's time for
Gharam-Dharam to become choosy and start reading some good
scripts instead of signing some of the trash he has had in the
last few years.
It is too early to tell how most of the films released
in December such as GAMBLER, TRIMURTI, and HAQEEQAT have done.
Here is a list of films to expect in the first half of 1996.
I don't guarantee any of these releasing by June, but I am
75 percent sure of most of them:

ANAS FILMS PROUDLY PRESENT... MANSOOR AHMED SIDIQUI'S SAAJAN CHALE SASURAL (with GOVINDA, Tabu, Karisma Kapoor, Anupam Kher) Producer: Mansoor Ahmed Sidiqui Director: DAVID DHAWAN Music: Nadeem-Shravan
Brilliant comedy film .You have to watch it more than once to get all the jokes. Ravishing Raveena Tandon in a glamorous role as the head of a gang of girls- the bicycle chain gang ! Kaider Khan plays the god who loses the 'Book of the Future' and is desperate to get it back before humans find it and become just too wise. Excellent dialogue and dances . Indian cinema at its best .
Ritu Shivpuri , Jeetendra and Dharmendra. Four villains one played by 'Duryodahan' from the serial Mahabarat live lives to be envied. Many dances with scantily clad females for those who like that sort of thing. 'Ishq ki barsaat' is beautifully choreographed. Bashir's dialogue is outstanding. A must see film.
