Best of 2009

Well since everyone is doing the best of 2009 movies list so i thought to do mine as well

Here are the best of 2009 in order of release:

  • Luck By Chance: a brilliant movie with awesome performances by everyone.
  • Dev D: a modern day devdas, Anurag Kashyap does a brilliant job and Amit Trivedi easily gives the best music for the year.
  • Gulaal: Anurag Kashyap weaves a shakespearean tale based in a fictional Rajasthani town with some outstanding performances definitely the best story of the year.
  • Little Zizou: a nice comedy centering around the Parsi Community with brilliant performances.
  • Firaaq: Nandita Das brings out the turmoil of the gujarat riots brilliantly in this one.
  • 99: an awesome comedy.
  • Kaminey: easily the best performance of the year Shahid Kapoor as Charlie and Guddu does tremendously well.
  • Wanted: it delivered exactly what it promised Salman Khan doing action after a longtime.
  • Wake Up Sid: Ranbir delivers one of his best performances and Konkona as usual does well a good debut by Ayaan Mukerji.
  • Paa: the Big B shines in this one, though the movie could’ve done without the whole politician act by Abhishek, Vidya Balan steals the show for me in this one.
  • Rocket Singh Salesman of the Year: Shimit Amin and Jaideep Sahni do a tremendous job in creating characters that stick with you till long after the movie ends. Brilliant performances by Ranbir, Gauhar and the rest of the principle cast.
  • 3 idiots: Raju Hirani proves that he can do more than just the Munnabhai series, outstanding performances by the whole cast.

Now I’m going to list the best characters of 2009:

  • Romy Rolly (Luck By Chance) beautifully portrayed by Rishi Kapoor
  • Chunnilal (Dev D) a pimped out Chunnilal loved Dibyendu Bhattacharyas portrayal especially his introduction to Dev
  • Ali (Delhi 6) an awesome character was disappointed Rakesh Mehra didn’t use him more, again outstanding portrayal by Rishi Kapoor
  • Veer Singh (Love Aaj Kal) a very lovable character done brilliantly by Saif Ali Khan and Rishi Kapoor
  • Charlie (Kaminey) Main f ko f bolta hoon, Shahid Kapoor was just brilliant
  • Bhope Bhau (Kaminey) Amol Gupte does it so well
  • Mikhail (Kaminey) Chandan Roy Sanyal as the doped out Mikhail was outstanding especially the showdown between Bhope Bhau and Mikhail the best scene of the year
  • Tashi (Kaminey) Tenzing Nima just brilliant, plays it really cool
  • Sweety Bhope (Kaminey) Priyanka Chopra does brilliantly as a Maharashtrian girl.
  • AGM (99) and Inspector Talpade (Wanted) Mahesh Manjrekar is outstanding in both roles
  • Gani Bhai (Wanted) Prakash Raj was hilarious as the don in this one
  • Veer Pratap Singh (Dil Bole Hadippa) the only good thing about this movie was Rani Mukerji as the young sardar

  • Auro (Paa) Amitabh Bachchan as a 13 yr old and he delivers yet again
  • Chatur Ramalingam (3 idiots) Omi Vaidya plays this character brilliantly especially the teachers day speech just brilliant.

  • Delhi 6: AR Rahman does it again with Arziyan, Rehna Tu, Masakali and Dil Gira Kahin Dafatan outstanding
  • Love Aaj Kal: Pritam does pretty well with this one Twist, Yeh Dooriyan, Aahun Aahun, Chor Bazaari and Aaj Din Chadiya
  • Kaminey: Vishal Bharadwaj lends his voice to one of the best songs of the movie Kaminey, Pehil Baar Mohabbat, Dhan Te Nan and Raat Ke Dhai Baje
  • Wake Up Sid: Loved only one song Iktara and it’s Amit Trivedi doing wonders once again
  • 3 idiots: Give Me Some Sunshine, Behti Hawa, Aal Izz Well and Zoobi Doobi are brilliant Shantanu Moitra does well.
