Jahan AaraThe brand new Bollywood movie Taj Mahal (and first after decades of ban on Indian movies in Pakistan) is shown at SozoFortress and Empire Cinema. A film review describes Taj Mahal as "..Taj Mahal is Akbar Khan’s magnum opus, it claims of some of most extravagant sets ever mounted, some of the most lavish costumes ever made, some of most of the spectacular and exhilarating battle scenes ever captured, and the most expensive film ever made in India.." However, most reviews claim that the movie leaves a lot to be desired. It falls short on acting, sets, as well as in the storyline. Since the theme of the movie has been done to death, it should have made the movie-makers consider some dynamic sequences or fantastic scenes. Sadly, the viewer only ends up with lots of yawns. However, hopefully better Indian movies will be allowed in Pakistani cinemas. http://www.danka.com.pk/viewEvent.php?id=668Date: Fri, 12 May 2006 To Thu, 18 May 2006 Punjabi filmhttp://www.danka.com.pk/viewEvent.php?id=802Date: Tue, 11 Jul 2006 To Thu, 01 Jan 1970 BLADE TrinityCrown Cinema's Lahore presents exclusively for the first time the Hollywood Blockbuster "Blade - Trinity" with Wesley Snipes.Based on the Marvel comic book character, Blade joining forces with two vampire hunters part of a group called the Nightstalkers as they tackle the powerful and ruthless villain Danica Talos.

He disposes of rivals and opponents, though not always in the most obvious ways (one acquaintance claims he had Machiavelli's "The Prince" memorized.) He dumped bodies in rivers, doled out money from the treasury to friends (sometimes having more printed when needed) and bedded other mens' wives. He insituted a short-lived and ill-fated space programme. Over the years he visited with Nixon, Bush and Indira Ghandi, among others. Like his European counterpart, Nicolai Ceaucescu, even at the end he can never quite be convinced of his own unpopularity. He manages to avoid the Ceaucescu's degrading end, and instead succumbs to prostate cancer in 1997.

Madagascar may be a nice place to visit, but for the gang of animals who spent most of their lives in New York, there is truly no place like home. After discovering the remnants of a crashed airplane, the penguins quickly set about making the repairs needed to get the craft airborne again. When the plane finally takes to the sky, it begins to look like it's only a matter of time before Alex the Lion (voice of Ben Stiller) and friends are soaring over New York Harbor. Unfortunately the penguins weren't the aviation experts they claimed to be, and before long the crew is coming in for a crash-landing in the untamed plains of Africa. Now, as the animals reared in the safety of the zoo come into contact with their decidedly wild counterparts for the very first time, they get a better feel for their roots while marveling over the differences between life in the concrete jungle and life on the world's second largest continent. Of course, while there's plenty to love about wandering the open plains, romantic rivalries and the risk of running into dangerous poachers soon begin to outweigh the joys of some long-overdue family reunions. With some particularly heavy cases of homesickness causing hearts to weigh heavy, the group gradually starts to wonder whether they'll ever find their way back home.

Even though he is looking to avoid trouble, trouble has a way of finding him: a group of Christian human rights missionaries, led by Michael Burnett and Sarah Miller, approach Rambo with the desire to rent his boat to travel up the river to Burma. For over fifty years, Burma has been a war zone. The Karen people of the region, who consist of peasants and farmers, have endured brutally oppressive rule from the murderous Burmese military and have been struggling for survival every single day. After some inner contemplation, Rambo accepts the offer and takes Michael, Sarah, and the rest of the missionaries up the river. When the missionaries finally arrive at the Karen village, they find themselves part of a raid by the sadistic Major Pa Tee Tint and a slew of Burmese army men. A portion of the villagers and missionaries are tortured and viciously murdered, while Tint and his men hold the remainder captive. Concerned by their disappearance, the minister in charge of the mission gathers a group of mercenaries and pleas Rambo transport them with his boat, since he knows their last exact location. But Rambo can't stay behind: he joins the team where he belongs, to liberate the survivors from the clutches of Major Tint in what may be one of his deadliest missions ever.Show timings: Daily: 3:30 pm , 6:30 pm , 9:30pm. http://www.danka.com.pk/viewEvent.php?id=6076Date: Fri, 01 May 2009 To Sun, 10 May 2009 Synopsis: Imagine being one of the most successful businessmen in the country.

He travels a thousand kilometers by train to stand under her balcony only to have a glimpse of her face. And yet not speak a word with her. Veer does not understand how Jai can treat matters of the heart without passion, like a financial transaction. Jai does not understand how Veer Singh could have been so naive and silly about Harleen in the days of his youth. But as both stories unfold, we realize that the process of relationship might be different in different eras, but the experience of being in love remains the same. So there is the frolic and despair of modern living, the liberation and confusion. And there is the past - the times of innocence and compulsion. And there is distance, and the fondness that increases with distance. Gaps widen between two people, but bridges keep growing too.Show timings:  SUNDAY TO THURSDAY : 3:00pm, 9:30pm, 9:00pm   http://www.danka.com.pk/viewEvent.php?id=6796Date: Fri, 14 Aug 2009 To Thu, 27 Aug 2009 Synopsis:New York brings to screen an event that reverberated universally.It touches the lives of three friends – Maya (Katrina Kaif), Sameer (John Abraham) and Omar (Neil Nitin Mukesh) – leading a carefree life in New York.

Joe base and sends Storm Shadow (Lee Byung-hun) and the Baroness to retrieve the warheads with assistance from Zartan (Arnold Vosloo), inflicting casualties on several G.I. Joe soldiers. After a fight, Storm Shadow and the Baroness retrieve the warheads and take them to Baron DeCobray, the Baroness's husband, for him to weaponize and use them to destroy the Eiffel Tower to serve as a showing of the warhead's destructive power. Making their way to Paris, the Joes pursue them through the streets but are unsuccessful in stopping them from launching the missile. Duke manages to hit the kill switch, but in doing so he is captured and taken to McCullen's base under the Arctic.Show timings: TBAhttp://www.danka.com.pk/viewEvent.php?id=7676Date: Mon, 21 Sep 2009 To Sat, 10 Oct 2009 This English movie will open for public viewing at Bambino Cinema in Karachi from 21st Sep onwards.Show timings: Daily 9:30 pm and Eid show at 12 Noon.For more info: 2729312 http://www.danka.com.pk/viewEvent.php?id=7678Date: Mon, 21 Sep 2009 To Sat, 10 Oct 2009 This movie will open for public viewing at Reno, Venus, Ghalib  and Imperial Cinemas from 21st Sep onwards.Cast: Ahmad Butt, Nida Chaudry, Rida Chaudry, Anjuman Shehzadi, Hina Khan.

In the film, Aladin is a shy, young man, constantly bullied by a certain gang of boys in his college. He secretly loves his classmate Jasmine (Jacqueline) but never musters the courage to tell her about it. One day, through a twist of fate, the incredible ‘Genius’ (Genie) lands up in his life and all hell breaks loose for Aladin! That genie refuses to leave Aladin alone and follows him everywhere, unwilling to leave without granting him 3 wishes! But there is another side... an ultra-cool and uber-evil magician Ringmaster is using a magic mirror to Google our Aladin. And he wants to kill Aladin, take back the lamp and reclaim his powers (for even Ringmaster was once a genie)… As Aladin’s 3 wishes run out and the Ringmaster closes in on him, the stage is set for an exciting battle between the forces of good and evil. Packed with fun, music, masti, action and adventure ‘Aladin’ boasts of a visual scale as never seen before on Indian screen. The music of the film is composed by talented duo Vishal & Shekhar.

But they had little in common except their family's vague connection with music. While Arjun's life was consumed by a passionate drive to get on stage and realize his grandfather's unfulfilled dream, Mannu had little interest in his music tutor father's instruments and was content with remaining a child at heart with no higher ambition than enjoying the good things in life. But little did they expect music to strengthen their friendship and then test it with catastrophic results... Arjun diligently pursued his dream, at the risk of running away from an uncle who was his only family in an unfamiliar land and roaming the streets of London before taking shelter in a music shop and priming himself until he's ready to make his foray into the world of music and showmanship. As Arjun forges a band with Zoheb and Wasim, two brothers who'd duped their relatives in Pakistan to travel to London in pursuit of their musical aspirations, and Priya, a music enthusiast from a conservative South Indian family, far away in Punjab, music becomes a survival tool for Mannu, who takes to playing in wedding bands in his village. But when he gets Mannu to London and makes him a part of the band, Arjun soon realizes he's created the biggest threat and obstacle to his own ambitions. For, Mannu, with his inherent musical gift and irreverent style of performing, becomes an instant darling of the crowds. What has taken Arjun years to achieve, Mannu does overnight. It causes Arjun to feel betrayed by the God to whom he'd surrendered everything in return for eminence in music. Arjun's unbearable pangs of jealously and insecurity only worsen when Mannu also unwittingly woos and wins his secret love, Priya. As he battles his inner demons, Arjun slowly devises a sinister plan to destroy his best friend. Over a three city tour spanning Paris, Rome and Amsterdam, Arjun sends a naive Mannu on a downward hurtling rollercoaster ride of sex and drugs that almost breaks Mannu's spirit and his love life days before a show at Wembley, a venue where Arjun hopes to have his moment of glory. A venue where his grandfather had failed before a crowd of 25,000 people! But a rude shock awakens Arjun at Wembley at the expense of his band, his friendship and his credibility - a humbling experience that teaches him the true meaning of acceptance in life.  Show timings:   MONDAY TO THURSDAY : 3:30PM, 6:30PM, 9:30PM FRIDAY  : 3:00PM, 5:30PM, 8:00PM,10:45PM SATURDAY & SUNDAY: 2:30PM, 5:15PM, 8:00PM,10:45PM  http://www.danka.com.pk/viewEvent.php?id=8248Date: Fri, 13 Nov 2009 To Wed, 25 Nov 2009 Synopsis : Parag Dixit is living a dream life with a great job and his loving girlfriend Maansi!

At last they will marry.http://www.danka.com.pk/viewEvent.php?id=8313Date: Mon, 23 Nov 2009 To Thu, 03 Dec 2009 Synopsis: Priyadarshan's latest offering after the not-so-successful Billu, is Akshay Kumar and Katrina Kaif's De Dana Dan. Priyan has roped in the Hera Pheri Trio of Akshay Kumar - Sunil Shetty and Paresh Rawal. Sadly, the magic is missing and De Dana Dan is easily one of the more forgettable slapstick comedies from the director. Nitin (Akshay Kumar) is poor and works for Archana, a rich businesswoman. He and his friend Ram (Sunil Shetty) kidnap Archana's most prized possession, her dog. The dog turns out to be smarter, escapes and returns back home. The cops believe the victim of the kidnap is Nitin and the search begins. At this point we are introduced to two dozen characters all under one roof in a Hotel, each with a confusion of his own. The comedy of errors begins. The movie begins well with the kidnapping of the dog, but quickly turns into a tedious, unhumorous watch. The first half is lengthy, slow paced with confusions aplenty. Akshay-Paresh-Sunil never appears on screen together and Akshay shut safely into the cupboard for a good part of the second half would disappoint his fans. Ditto for Katrina Kaif who sizzles in the 'Paisa' song but is missing from the more important scenes. The introduction of several new characters in the later half, their mistaken identities, cartoonish fights, exaggerated and loud dialogues is all a part of this silly Priyadarshan circus. The blast in the swimming pool and the water mayhem that follows is inspired from the Hollywood film 'The Towering Inferno' and deserves the 'Silliest scene of the year award' if at all there was one. Akshay is full of energy with good comic timing in the first half, but is hardly present in the second. Sunil Shetty hams. Katrina Kaif has a couple of songs, few dialogues. Neha Dhupia shines. Paresh Rawal, Johny Lever and Rajpal Yadav provide a bit of entertainment. Others put you to sleep only to be woken up by Archana Puran Singh's screeches. To sum up, De Dana Dan is 175 minutes of sheer madness with extended special appearances by Akshay and Katrina. One of Priyadarshan's weakest film in recent memory.Show timings: TUESDAY TO THURSDAY : 3:30PM, 6:30PM, 9:30PM FRIDAY  : 3:00PM, 5:30PM, 8:00PM,10:45PM SATURDAY TO MONDAY: 2:30PM, 5:15PM, 8:00PM,10:45PM http://www.danka.com.pk/viewEvent.php?id=8312Date: Fri, 27 Nov 2009 To Thu, 03 Dec 2009 Synopsis: 26th July 2005 rang an ominous bell-for most... but amidst all the chaos and the tragedy, it reunited two star crossed ex lovers. 2 people who meet after a hiatus of 6 years-now occupying different worlds.

But marks never stopped him from dreaming of an exciting and adventurous career, and they never will. He takes a deep, positive breath and dives into the world of sales, rumoured to be an ultra cool career for all smart people blocked from entering medical, engineering or business schools by brainless entrance exams. It's everything he dreamt of, with its smooth dressing, smoother talking men and women who can sell ice to an Eskimo, dreams to an insomniac, and a lifetime mobile connection to a dying man. But soon, his idea of success begins clashing with the strange ways of these 'professionals' and 'bosses' he looked up to. Rocket Singh - Salesman of the Year is the sometimes thoughtless, sometimes thoughtful story of a fresh graduate trying to find a balance between the maddening demands of the 'professional' way, and the way of his heart - and stumbling upon a crazy way which turned his world upside down, and his career right side up.

He is given a mission to infiltrate the Na'vi, who have become a major obstacle to mining the precious ore. But a beautiful Na'vi female, Neytiri, saves Jake's life, and this changes everything.

Hers is an epic tale of Shakespearean dimension. It’s the story of the first woman in history to lead a Muslim nation: Pakistan. Newsweek called it the most dangerous place in the world, and the home of nuclear war heads and the Taliban.Benazir Bhutto was born into a wealthy landowning family that became Pakistan’s dominant political dynasty. Often referred to as the “Kennedys of Pakistan,” the Bhuttos share a painful history of triumph and tragedy, played out on an international stage.Educated at Harvard and Oxford, and with an eye on a foreign service career, Benazir’s life changed forever when her father, Pakistan’s first democratically elected president, chose Benazir to carry his political mantle over the family’s eldest son. In the late 70’s, when Zulfikar Ali Bhutto was overthrown and executed by his handpicked Army Chief, Benazir swore to avenge her father and restore democracy — or to die trying.Benazir Bhutto may have broken the Islamic glass ceiling, but she was wed in a traditional arranged marriage to then-Karachi playboy Asif Ali Zardari. Her two terms in power saw acts of courage and controversy as she eradicated polio and stood up for women, while fighting the male-dominated political elite, and a nervous military leadership, while battling accusations of corruption and scandal.In 2007, with the South Asian country rolling in turmoil and under the thumb of yet another military dictator, Benazir was called back onto the world stage as Pakistan’s best hope for democracy. With her assassination she transcended politics, but left a legacy of simmering controversy and undeniable courage that will be debated for years. Show timings: MONDAY TO THURSDAY: 9:30pmFRIDAY TO SUNDAY: 10:30pmhttp://www.danka.com.pk/viewEvent.php?id=9870Date: Fri, 18 Jun 2010 To Thu, 24 Jun 2010 Synopsis: Kites has a unique storyline and a dance based romance thriller.
