She married with Ajay Devgan when she was at the top and stopped appearing in the film though she acted in my name is khan after marriage which is also a hit. 7. Rani Mukherjee: Making her film debut with the film Raja ki ayegi baraat was not a hit but people appreciated her role in the film. After that her role as a supporting actress in Kuch kuch hota hai made her popular in small age. After that her films like Saathiya, Yuva, and Hum Tum made her more popular.

Her song Sheila ki jawani became hit and she got lot of fame due to this song. Though she has acted in few films in her career but has given hits. She has long way to go as she has got the talent and beauty together. 10. Vidya Balan: She is not as beautiful as Aishwarya but she has got the talent that’s the reason the low budget film like the dirty has been the recent hit for her in which acted so well and grabbed national award for it. Apart from it she also had some hit films like Bhool Bhuliayan, pareenita, Ishqiya. She believes in doing different characters and look good in everything she does. No doubt the way she is choosing and acting in the films she will be on the top in the recent time.

                         In their never ending quest for success and money at the Box Office, Indian filmmakers have lost the creative spark and the magic touch that was so prominent in the 80’s which made the global film fraternity wake up and take note of Bollywood.                

          Strangely the general perception is that the Indian film industry hit its nadir during the turbulent 80’s. Nothing can be farther from the actual truth. It was a revolutionary period for both film and television, both of which experienced a great churning during that decade. Admittedly mainstream pan India Hindi movies fell into the throes of mediocrity, churning out the same formulaic content again and again. However creativity wise, it was a golden period for Indian cinema. Sadly this creative energy was pushed to the sidelines and marginalized by a plethora of formulaic movies that included an endless number of mindless NRI romances, over the top action flicks and family melodramas.           

                Truth to be told, Indian cinema enjoyed much greater respect and clout globally in the 80’s than what it does today. Today the movie stars may have tremendous mass appeal but their movies are hollow bereft of any substance which is a stark contrast to the deeply introspective, poignant films of the 80’s. In the course of three decades undoubtedly Bollywood has improved by leaps and bounds both commercially as well in terms of its reach. But in terms of actual content the film industry has actually regressed. Today the filmmakers’ overriding concern is Box Office success. The films are looked at as being mere business ventures and not as a medium to educate and raise awareness of the common public on burning social issues. It is understandable the commercial success is an extremely important facet but it should not be the only driver so much so that the actual soul of the movie ends up getting sacrificed at the altar of commercial expediency. And if one looks at the actual picture, Bollywood may be raking in tons of moolahs in domestic and overseas business but this constitutes only 3% of the global showbiz pie. So money wise also the film industry is nowhere near global standards.                         Given the current shambolic situation, it is surprising that not too long ago Indian films were spoken of in the same breath as that of their Japanese counterparts in terms of their content and cinematic brilliance. Saytyajit Ray and Ritwik Ghatak or Shyam Benegal were more than a perfect match for Japan’s Kurosawa and Imamura. Together they conceived a slew of masterpieces like “Jaane Bhi Do Yaaron” Akrosh or Ardh Satya which propelled Indian cinema to newer heights. Even mainstream cinema saw releases like Vidhu Vinod Chopra’s” Parindey” and Mani Ratnam’s “Nayakan” , where content and styled were blended seamlessly.                    

     While the box office numbers that Bollywood has managed to garner over the last three decades are undoubtedly impressive, in that period Indian films predictably have come a cropper in major international festivals like The Cannes or The Oscars. The Movie Moguls of today have managed to master only one trick of the trade- the art of maximizing profits. With an overwhelming emphasis on bottomline and bottomline only, the industry may soon find itself in a quagmire from where there will be no escape.

Entertainment is the act of entertaining or something that amuses, pleases, especially a performance or a show. Without entertainment life becomes dull and monotonous. Entertainment is necessary for relaxation. Without entertainment we lose interest in our work which directly affects our performance and growth. We can entertain ourselves by watching a Magic Show. This kind of an entertainment is generally liked by kids and is available on the net and on our TV sets. These days Magic Shows not only show us the tricks but also show the secrets behind such tricks. Listening to a Radio is also a common form of entertainment. It is a popular form of entertainment between the adults, housewives and kids. Radio not only keeps us well informed with all the current affairs but also plays music, commentaries, interviews etc. When we talk about entertainment we cannot ignore Sports. Sports are a popular form of entertainment between all the age groups. Cricket, Hokey, Wrestling, Tennis, Badminton, Boxing etc are the most popular entertaining Sports in India. Storytelling is a popular form of entertainment too. This form of entertainment is liked by the kids. Cinema is another form of entertainment which is quite popular in India. In India more than hundred movies are produced and released every year. These movies are of different genre. These movies not only entertains but also leaves a good message for all of us. This type of entertainment is very cheap and is easily affordable by every one. This kind of entertainment is available in movie theaters and back home too. Last but not the least is the Internet. Through Internet we can communicate with others, we can earn by participating in paid surveys, we can gather information, we can educate ourselves, we can play online games , we can shop, we can book movie tickets, airline tickets, trips etc

 

The first thing that comes to mind when i think about this movie is ‘Rapunzel’, the girl having long beautiful golden hair containing magical powers of the golden flower. I had been aware of Rapunzel stories, and what more surprise could I get when I got to watch a beautiful movie based on it it with my lovely friends.

Plot-
Disney’s 50th animated film- ‘Tangled’ (I think some other title would have done more justice to it) is an enchanting film which will engulf you in its story beautifully. As mentioned above, the fable is about Rapunzel, a princess,who is kidnapped by Mother Gothel, because of the magical hair that she possesses that would help Mother Gothel to stay young.Unaware of who her real parents are,she spends 17 years of her life in castle with Mother Gothel,mistaking her to be her real mother.
Being never allowed to go outside the castle and  gazing  the floating lights through her window every year on her birthday (floating lights were actually the floating lanterns released  on her birthday every year by her real parents and the people of kingdom in the hope that they will get their princess back one day). Rapunzel desired and expected that on her 18th birthday she be allowed to watch the lights closely and be allowed to step out of the castle to experience the real world.
But,her birthday wish remained unfulfilled until she met Flyinn rider ,a dacoit who enters the castle with the stolen crown, in absence of Mother Gothel, to hide himself from the police and his accomplices. He is taken hostage by rapunzel. Finding himself tied and his crown missing,he agrees to fulfill her wish and thus get his crown back in return.

 

You get more engaged in the story with Rapunzel stepping out of the castle for the first time and experiencing the real world.The journey of Rapunzel and Flyinn rider from the castle to the watching of the floating lights together is exotic and humourous .
The intervention of shrewd Mother Gothel brings about a twist in the tale and you watch the lovely couple depart.When will they meet ? how will they meet ? Will rapunzel know the true face of Mother Gothel and who her real parents are ? These questions keep on tickling you as the story proceeds and keeps you engrossed throughout.

Things I liked in the movie-
Truly speaking,I liked everything-the story,its pace,the animation,the beautiful characters ,the voices,the dialogues,background music and ofcourse the melodious songs .
The healing song ‘Flower gleam and glow,
let your power shine,
make the clock reverse ,
bring back what once was mine .
 is beautiful .
The song ‘now I see the light’

played while they both watch the lanterns together is utterly romantic and just peps up the mood.
