Intelligent Hindi film critic complains that DHOOM 2 is glossy, superficial, juvenile, ultra-commercial, shot just like Hollywood, and lacking in true Indian cinematic soulfulness. It's all true. Yep, this flick is gonna make a mint!

Bollywood stars face court action over kiss
Sun Dec 3, 2006 9:12 AM GMT
BHOPAL, India (Reuters) - A kissing scene from a movie starring Bollywood actors Aishwarya Rai and Hrithik Roshan has irked a lawyer who has filed a criminal case against them, accusing them of obscenity, he said on Sunday.
Shailendra Dwivedi of Indore, near Bhopal, the capital of central Madhya Pradesh state, said the scene from the movie, titled "Dhoom 2", lowered the dignity of Indian women and gave an obscene message to youth.
"Bollywood actors are conveying vulgarity in the society," Dwivedi told Reuters. "These films cannot be watched with our families, they are so vulgar at times."
A local court accepted Dwivedi's petition to punish the actors and said it would hear the petitioner on December 11.
The Indian censor board, which certifies all films, released the movie with a "parental discretion" certificate.
