A few words on the hilarious comedy ‘Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani’ which is certainly worth more than a watch.

Dan Brown’s cocktail of symbols, mysteries and secret societies is a cheap thriller at best.

For me Johnny Depp has remained that inexplicable Peter Pan image who has painted dream sequences on real life canvases and had me swooning over his casual good-looks at anywhich character that he has played.
