O Maria
Premier Show at Kala Academy (IFFI 2010) On 30th Nov. 2010 at 5.30pm With full film cast It’s all about Goa. including Gumott, Guitar & Cantar Insiders/outsiders, land deals, property disputes, drugs, Casino etc etc In another words, it’s another wake up call to save what's little left of Goa. Movie is good and I would give 3.5 stars Roseferns and Com John D’ Silva also played cameo roles John is ‘pedo/Sancristao’ and says ‘ i am very busy, I have a funeral at 3.30 and a wedding at 5’ But our Bollywood comedian ‘Tiku Talsania’ got most applause for his Konkani/Marati/Hindi/English talk. Maria’s role played well. Maria, a middle aged spinsters who looks after her sick mother who is bedridden. The bedridden mother’s role was good too (another bollywood actress Sulabha Arya?) She did not utter a word yet her role was so natural The role brought some tears in my eyes as it reminded me of my mother in the bed.. Kevin D'Mello role of a 'cool boy' was also good. He mostly stays with his aunt Maria and his grand mother. Maria's brother was 'Roseferns' who wanted to sell his ancestors' beach side property to a foreigner. But he could not do so without his sister Maria's signature... The foreigner (the leading role) played by a foreigner who puts up with Maria’s as paying guest. Music was good too with some Remo’s popular songs playing in the background Looks like some songs are taken off (I am not too sure about it) We may be able to watch the whole movie when it releases on 19th Dec. this year. The film started at 5.43pm and ended at around 7.20pm (With no break) The show was houseful. 50 tickets were left 24 hours before the show starts. Entire film cast was present at the show except ‘Maria’ (and Tiku?) All of them were called up on the stage before the show See the complete pic (with about 25) Roseferns and John D’ Silva also seen The pics: The Film Director, The Music Director and the Film Hero (Lead Role) Rajendra Talak, Remo Fernandes and Cory Goldberg http://www.flickr.com/photos/joegoaukiffi/5221709506/ With Kevin D’Mello (Com.

Looks like something I did not get right. Why Maria's brother and his family living in a hut like house when they have a very big portuguese type house where Maria and her mother lives?(a fim song by Remo), don't remember listening to this song at the premier. It goes like this Just two days ago, some film cast along with the director seen at Kingfisher village seating in the VIP lounge. At that time the director handed over a CD to be played MAKA NAKA TUKA NAKA TEKA NAK TIKA NAKA TEMKAM NAKA AMKAM NAKA HEM 'POLUTION' [email protected] for Goa & NRI related info... http://in.groups.yahoo.com/group/GOAN-NRI/ For Goan Video Clips http://youtube.com/joeukgoa In Goa, Dial 1 0 8 For Hospital, Police, Fire etc
