OutPut:

vd_review structure contains:

A movie (if at all it is !) with stunning music,
breathtaking cinematography and excellent art
direction... but without direction. This is what
happens when a director (the programmer) is given
access to pointers (!!??!!). Meenaxi is an abstract
(but beautiful) piece of Art (with capital A) that
empties the heads (OHT) even before it explains
itself. Too many pointers leave anyone confused.
Perhaps that was another point Hussain was driving
home (if at all there was someone at home :)) .

The idea of recursive characterization is great, but
the execution leaves much to be desired. Hussain being
a painter doesn’t understand the medium of cinema at
all. Meenaxi stuffs much of the existential and
God-knows-what philosophy in his complicated
screenplay with complicated dialogues, but fails to
engage anybody.
But, Hussain has definitely risen much above his first
movie: GajaGamini.

Nevethless, Tabu is an absolute TREAT to watch as the
three variables she gets typecasted into. And, you can
watch this just for her, if you arent too much the
philosophical kinds. But, do watch it on a VCD, where
you can control the pointers of Hussain. Its a win-win
situation for both.

Ravi and I once upon a time did talk of forking our
real selves and wanted to write a story on this idea.
Hussain heard us, and forked himself. And, I am happy.
What say, Ravi ?
