and I precisely had the same question - that if we fly to US take for example and earth is rotating = then why cant a flight be stationary in the air and let earth;s rotation do the job -= that way fuel wont be spent too, and we will reach the desired destination in 12 hours😆

know it sounds insane...but I dont agree with rotation theory😆

Are U serious ? 😕

You cannot compare the speed of earth's rotation to the speed of jet planes 😆

The ultimate proof of Earth's rotation is phases of moon and for revolution, it is seasons.

Also, heavenly bodies cannot be still in the space, they need to be rotating and in revolution simultaneously to be in their respective orbits.,

o/wise, there is no solar system, no galaxies, nothing 😆

I have and absolutely loved it. Especially the ending.

Loved what happened to Saif in the end😈

ok seriously dont want to sound wacked out 😆 closing the discussion on this...as I see we do have lot of stalkers - m sure they'll think m a psycho😆

But all the reviews have given it thumbs up...now now m in a dilemma - dont LIKE VARUN AT ALL...but he seems to have done a good job here

Story: Raghu's (Varun Dhawan) indefectible life is devastated, when a robbery episode kills his wife and son. The culprit Liak (Nawazuddin Siddiqui) refuses to let out the truth and is imprisoned for 20 years. Refusing to move on, Raghu harbours in him the tryst for truth. Can he avenge the deaths of people who meant the world to him? And, is being devoured by the feeling of revenge as gratifying as his volcanic rage had promised?

Review: Badlapur is a gobsmacking movie that suffuses on screen - a deftly written story, spectacular performances and an intelligently layered screenplay. What works best here is the film's unpredictability. From the minute it begins, you're latched to your seat with your heart throbbing in your mouth and your throat frequently choking up. For the sheer impact the movie conjures up, writer-director Sriram Raghavan deserves a bow!

Mixing grit and suspense in the right measure, Sriram allows his film to take the risky path in keeping you invested, ably playing his motley bunch of characters. While the layers smoothly unfold in this vendetta affair, Raghavan's clarity of vision keeps the narrative seamless. The wicked humour sprinkled abruptly in the sequences draws one further into this movie. The excessive gore might be considered superfluous but is vital for the impact it has.

The driving force here are the actors who evolve the story. Varun's measured acting and sincere eyes draw empathy. With each scene, the intense hues he brings to Raghu, unravel. Nawaz is superlative as Liak, bringing a sinful streak of twisted comedy, teaming it with unabashed swagger. The ladies deliver adequately, but it's Huma Qureshi who brings more to her role than what it holds.

Though the film's second hour meanders and is a tad long, the compelling climax and memorable scenes, like the one where Liak reveals the truth that Raghu had desperately been seeking, trivializes these flaws. Added to it, Sachin-Jigar's haunting music adds a piercing quality.

Brisk and absorbing, concluding differently than expected, Badlapur is an inspired film that dangerously attempts to change the landscape of the thriller genre in Bollywood.
