Forced to do evil
Ghost Rider' airs on Star Movies at 10.55 pm on August 3. The movie stars Nicolas Cage, Peter Fonda, Sam Elliot, Wes Bentley and Eva Mendes.
Long ago, superstar motorcycle stunt rider Johnny Blaze made a deal with the devil to protect the ones he loved most: his father and his childhood sweetheart, Roxanne (Eva Mendes).
Now, the devil has come for his due. By day, Johnny is a die-hard stunt rider — but at night, in the presence of evil, he becomes the Ghost Rider, a bounty hunter of rogue demons.
Forced to do the devil's bidding, Johnny is determined to confront his fate and use his curse and powers to defend the innocent.
A disreputable bunch
Golmaal is a tale of friendship, fun and of course — petty thievery.
The story centres around four friends, who are all equally useless: disreputable in a child-like way, aimless and of course, dabbling heavily in the petty business of cheating people out their money, for nothing but fun.
These friends are Gopal, played by Ajay Devgan; Lucky, played by Tusshar Kapoor; Mahadev, played by Arshad Warsi and Laxmi, played by Sharman Joshi. Catch the movie at 9 pm on August 3 on Sony Max.
