TAARZAN THE WONDER CAR ACTOR IMAGE MOVIE

Based loosely on Stephen KingвЂ™s 'Christine', the film was visionary at the very least. But if director duo Abbas-Mustan and writers Lalit and Sunny Mahajan are going to credit themselves with anything in relation with the film, itвЂ™s the inventiveness.

The nostalgia doesnвЂ™t make the movie a better one, Ayesha TakiaвЂ™s debut is still haunted by the ghost of the filmвЂ™s release, Vatsal Sheth was placed in one too many cringe-worthy scenes and God help those visuals. Having said that, IвЂ™m guessing Taarzan: The Wonder Car has some nostalgic strings attached to it. And maybe, you canвЂ™t get Himesh ReshammiyaвЂ™s music and the comically ominous вЂTaarzanвЂ™ theme song out of your mind. If you have watched the film, you probably did so ironically or with people who seemed to enjoy their popcorn entertainment without bringing criticism and analysis to the theatres. Buckle up millennials, this is going to be a drive down memory lane. Looking back, I totally get why the film that launched Ayesha Takia was a flop but was it a complete failure? On the anniversary of Taarzan: The Wonder Car, I'm looking back at the film that could've been Bollywood's finer attempts at a revenge drama. Night ShyamalanвЂ™s The Village (in the same year, just to give you an idea of the range) so when The Wonder Car appeared with its weird purple hood driven by an unassuming Vatsal Sheth, I was intrigued, particularly by the concept of a possessed car. Having consumed the best of films pretty early into my childhood, I had already lapped up popular films like Back To The Future and more obscure hits like M. I couldn't either when I watched it on a vacation day and it was quite an experience. The Abbas and Mustan Burmawalla film's spectacle at the movies rivalled an actual car crash, it was terrible but you couldn't look away. It was also the year Taarzan: The Wonder Car released, accelerated through its ambitious 2h 42m run-time and crashed at the box office.

2004 was especially influential with films cementing the early cinematic tones of the decade. It was a strange time for Bollywood as the industry dabbled into everything between big family dramas with Indian diaspora in the States to cheesy college romances. Oh, the glorious early '00s, the decade of Dhoom, Main Hoon Na and RTDM.
