	Tanmay's TAAL Page - About the film
		Taal is the eternal triangle love story involving Mansi (Aishwarya Rai), Manav (Akshaye Khanna) and Vikrant (Anil Kapoor).
		Though she looks pained and tragic in most of the film, she does a good job of a woman who is very protective of her father and one who doesn't think twice before rejecting a lover who has insulted her father.
		Taal will again enhance her reputation as an actress while in no way detracting from her image as a traffic-stopper.

	Dream India - Taal ... a beat of passion, Starring- Aishwarya Rai, Anil Kapoor & Akshaye Khanna
		Taal se taal mila is melody and nature's (Chamba's) beauty at it's best.
		The title track of "TAAL" picturised in scenic Chamba, is visually appetising as a plain-looking AISHWARYA RAI, playing Mansi in the film, dances in the rain with her sisters while a besotted AKSHAYE KHANNA look on.
		An important element of this film is definitely its music....In that sense, the score, as the movie, tends to grow in complexity with each song.

	Indo-Asian News Service -> US-Cinema-Taal-> 'Taal' to be part of best overlooked films festival (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		The film's director Subhash Ghai and Uma da Cunha, an expert on Indian films, will be in attendance when "Taal" is screened as the Sunday matinee musical to close Ebert's Overlooked Film Festival at the University of Illinois from April 20-24.
		"Taal" will be among a dozen movies to be screened at the festival, ranging from the 1925 silent epic "Phantom Of The Opera" to "Murderball", a 2005 documentary on the sport of full-contact wheelchair rugby that won an Audience Award at the Sundance festival.
		Writing on his website, Ebert described "Taal" as a film starring Aishwarya "as a singer who falls in love with the son of a rich neighbour - until his parents insult hers, and she seems about to marry a famous music video director".

	Chicago honour for Taal : HindustanTimes.com (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Taal is one of the 12 films that have been selected for the ongoing 7th Roger Ebert Overlooked Film Festival (April 20-24) in Chicago.
		Taal or its maker could never have hoped to be in such wonderful company.
		While it is certainly a singular honour for a film made essentially for the Indian masses, the very fact that the mainstream Hindi blockbuster is in a festival of “overlooked” films is proof enough that Bollywood cinema is still a fringe phenomenon in the global scheme of things.

		Nothing new in that, of course, and in case, their criticism has failed to dampen the enthusiasm of the distributors who are extremely confident and optimistic about the film's prospects.
		The formula of `Taal' is old, but Ghai has proved that old wine in a new bottle does sell — and sells well, especially in the age of packaging and presentation and in a market where looks count.
		As many as 76 films are still waiting to be released and 20 of these are yet to find even one buyer.

		I found her acting in Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam was overhyped and overdone, and in Taal, she was overshadowed by Anil Kapoor.
		In the film, Kapoor's character, Avinash, is very well defined as a good samaritan who treats human beings the way he wants to be treated.
		A film is so much better without these annoying comedians, case in point the recent Dhadkan, which was a touching, well-made, beautiful film without all the stupidity of comedy sequences.

	The Hindu Business Line : In-film branding is the in thing
		Secondly, while brand communication can be brought in to a film, it should be used in a selective and judicious manner and there should not be an overdose of the brand and its communication; otherwise, it would become boring, moving to a point of ridicule and seem forced.
		My fourth recommendation is that while dividing the choice of film for finalising in-film branding, one should check the track record of the film producer and the director as well as the story line, and choose films which have a greater probability of being a hit rather than being a flop.
		In-film branding is a great way of enhancing the image of the brand, and the strategies discussed here could go a long way to increase the effectiveness of this weapon.

		It was the most nominated film of 1999 at the Filmfare awards with 17.
		"Taal" is not a great film or even that good of a film, but it is a film filled with bits and pieces of great and sometimes spectacular moments.
		Ash who had never had a 'hit' film was suddenly the major attraction of the number one and two blockbusters of the year.

		Taal (pronounced tall, meaning "rhythm") is another movie I watched based purely on the soundtrack.
		She wasn't given a whole lot to do in that film, so I was eager to see her in a more prominent role.
		I really enjoyed his performance in that film, and was pleased to see a familiar face here.

		"Taal" is a film written, produced and directed by SUBHASH GHAI and going to be released in August 1999 all over the World through Eros International, U.K for overseas territories.
		'Taal' will alwaays be dear to my heart, and to me it is definitely my most favourite work too date.
		"Taal" is a great love story revolving around three dynamic characters (never presented so effectively ever before on the screen) being portrayed by Aishwarya Rai, Anil Kapoor and Akshaye Khanna who change the opinion of those critics who have seen them in dim lights.

	TAAL- Review by Nabil Qureshi
		Taal is an Indian movie (a "Bollywood" film) that combines the artistry and subtle backrounds of its locations to create a passionate love story extending from both these people.
		Mansi is a very shy woman and there a couple of moments in the film where her and Manif exchange some nice gestures between each other.
		I mean you watch this film for three hours, enjoying the songs and backgrounds and you expect a half decent way to finish this film off, but all you get is a "emotional" monologue on part of Kapu and that's it.

		The film stars some of the top Bollywood actors, Anil Kapoor, Aishwarya Rai, and Akshaye Khanna, and its music is composed by one of the most sought-after film musicians in India, A R Rahman.
		Another sign of the film's massive strength in the south Asian community in the US -- on Saturday August 14, Regal Cinemas, a multiplex theater in North Bergen, NJ, showed the film simultaneously on all its 13 screens.
		Taal's success (as well that of Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam) is a clear indication that the market is ripe for well-made romantic films.

		One of my goals with the film is to heal, myself and hopefully a few of those who watch it.
		The music in this film is original work, by the band Technically Virgins (I play rhythm guitar, and some vocals too), and all all of it was performed and recorded spontaneously that day.
		Another layer to the film, we anticipate, will be the personal growth and enlightenment we may gain individually and as a family.

	Planet-Bollywood - Film Review - Taal
		The one thorn in the creative scheme of "Taal" is a major one - the storyline.
		The storyline of "Taal" itself is extremely predictable.
		Manav first comes off as the possessor of great inner-wisdom, but he surprises the audience when he is quick to lose his temper and is able to call off his relationship in a rash, whimsical manner.

	TAAL (1999)
		As expected, Kapoor falls for his would be star leaving the film to somehow resolve the dramatic complications that develop as Akshaye tries to win back Aishwarya while Anil actively courts her.
		The most successful and enjoyable Bollywood films of the last few years have been those that have successfully been able to present old wine in a shiny new bottle.
		Meant to be the point when the film reaches its most crucial stage, Taal's climax is a shocking mish mash, so drawn out that by the time the film actually finishes you are breathing a sigh of relief.

		But, perhaps, the biggest drawback of the film are the jokes of breaking wind by the police officer's senior and the antics of the hero adopted by him to be one-up on his opponents.
		The film shows Malli’s transformation from a cold-blooded monster convinced that her acts of violence are in the best interests of her country to a human girl with emotions.
		The film is highly symbolic and uses a variety of images to tell the story.

		In some of the songs I try to break the conventional way of having a track and ask the singers to sing freely without any inhibitions, and there comes a point when the song elevates and at times by nearly 300 percent.
		We started working on the songs for “Taal” in 1995 and the first song took 45 days, the second one took one week, then it became faster.
		For instance, in "Taal" Anil Kapoor plays a very different kind of a character and the music is to suit his role.

		And the film benefits from the Tourneur-esque "less is more" approach, except when the monster is finally revealed -- it's a large eye with tentacles (the ideal reaction would be a nod of appreciation at the effectiveness of the construction as well as a round of ROTFL).
		At one point in the film, when Nandini (Nandita Das) tells Sujata (Jaya Bachchan) about the need for her to make the effort to understand her son, Jaya retorts "is rishte me.n bhii koshish, na.ndinii?".
		The film was slated to collide head-on with Yash Chopra's Veer-Zaara during Diwali, but the actual release date seems to fall somewhere in the late November fragment of the year.

		Moreover, the film is about the story of a village belle, Aishwarya Rai who starts off her humble journey from the valleys of Chamba to the glitz and glamour of Mumbai.

		This is a typical Kamal Haasan film with the maestro in a deadly role.
