Eklavya – A royal treat
By: Veekey Member's photo available | May 13, 2007 08:11 AM

          We Indians are escapist. We say we believe in harmony and serenity and are philosophical sort. We have been raised with the idea that we are giving kinds. This is all sham. We        ... Read complete review |  Read 713 times |  Comments (6)

EKLAVYA - ROYAL or LOYAL??
By: mb07 | Apr 21, 2007 03:37 AM

Imagine yourself in a chilled dark theatre staring at the screen... Imagine the screen erupting with some dark cartoons depicting the Eklavya of yesteryears (a small tribute paid to the most talented archer)... Read complete review |  Read 1162 times |  Comments (41)

Refreshingly different in parts
By: sheermelody Member's photo available | Mar 27, 2007 12:11 PM

After a long hiatus, I am back to writing reviews. And what better to start with than the ferociously advertised Eklavya – the royal guard. The movie is a success on some fronts and a dismal... Read complete review |  Read 735 times |  Comments (11)

Flopped in a royal way!
By: Avirup_2007 Member's photo available | Mar 14, 2007 06:25 PM

The verdict is out. Eklavya - The Royal Guard is a flop. Much hype was created before the release of this movie. I, being a fan of Saif’s, went for this one, which turned out to be below my expectations.... Read complete review |  Read 896 times |  Comments (1)

Sanajy Leela Bhansali assisted Vidhu Vinod Chopra for 8 years. but finally, chopra himself reminds of bhansali’s canvas and aura in EKLAVYA, which is possibly his biggest project in terms of budget,... Read complete review |  Read 907 times |  Comments (0)

Dharma Cola
By: deepak.jeswal | Mar 13, 2007 05:16 PM

What is dharma (duty)? Is it the constricted definition passed down from the Mahabharata ages in the form of Eklavya’s story (who cut his thumb to please his pseudo-master), where we celebrate... Read complete review |  Read 837 times |  Comments (1)

Like a Autorickshaw with the front wheel punctured
By: the_master Member's photo available | Mar 07, 2007 06:01 PM

Vidhu Vinod Chopra has seemed to me in recent times to be a better film-marketer/producer than a film-maker, thanks to his marketing genius none of his recent films have ever received a low rating.... Read complete review |  Read 937 times |  Comments (3)

Eklavya - A Super Flop
By: adil090970 | Mar 06, 2007 01:53 PM

After watching so many good movies from Vidhu Vinod Chopra, this comes as a super shock. How can a man of VVC’s cadre bring such a movie? Had he had a terrible nightmare that he wanted people to be... Read complete review |  Read 1086 times |  Comments (0)

Eklavya: Lotsa art, little entertainment
By: sandil Member's photo available | Mar 02, 2007 06:48 PM

Okay, so here’s the deal. You can either walk into Eklavya looking for entertainment, or art. The former exists in patches, the latter is quite impressive throughout.And if you tried fishing... Read complete review |  Read 1116 times |  Comments (9)

eklavya - chopra's royal masterpiece
By: Vijiboy | Feb 28, 2007 04:27 AM

I always look forward to a Vinod Chopra release. He’s one of the few directors who brings panache, flair & refeshing imagination to indian cinema. So when I realised VC was the director behind Eklavya... Read complete review |  Read 754 times |  Comments (2)
