Murder Mubarak Review | An Eccentric Knives Out That Works in Parts

Homi Adajania’s latest film, Murder Mubarak, is based on the book Club You To Death by Anuja Chauhan. Set against the backdrop of the high society life of Delhi, there is a layer of humour to this Knives Out-ish murder mystery that gives it some uniqueness. Since I haven’t read the book, I am not… Continue reading Murder Mubarak Review | An Eccentric Knives Out That Works in Parts

Shaitaan Review | An Unremarkable Horror Thriller With a Reveling Madhavan

The first and second act of the latest Ajay Devgn film, Shaitaan, is structured in a way that even though you won’t really feel the excitement with the way things unfold in the story, there will be that genuine curiosity to know how Vikas Bahl would take the movie forward as we would be looking… Continue reading Shaitaan Review | An Unremarkable Horror Thriller With a Reveling Madhavan

Laapataa Ladies Review | A Social Satire That Ultimately Puts a Smile of Hope on Your Face

At its core, Kiran Rao’s latest film Laapataa Ladies, is a women-empowerment film that pretty much asks women to step out of the limitations set by a patriarchal society. But the most beautiful thing about this all-hearted satiric drama is that it never appears as a preachy subject. With its predominant humor layer keeping us… Continue reading Laapataa Ladies Review | A Social Satire That Ultimately Puts a Smile of Hope on Your Face

Crakk Review | Crap Would Have Been an Apt Title That Justifies Its Craft

Crakk opens with a terrible CGI visual of Vidyut Jammwal doing the train stunts, which are pretty infamous among Mumbai Locals. The thing with that visual and the visual effects is that it pretty much gives you a good idea about what you will endure in the next two and a half hours of the… Continue reading Crakk Review | Crap Would Have Been an Apt Title That Justifies Its Craft

Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya Review | A Fun Human Robo Rom-Com With an Underdeveloped Central Conflict

The reason why something like Android Kunjappan worked for me was the fact that it was able to address various aspects of a robot entering our routine life. From the obvious humor to the emotional impact such an unemotional entity creates in our minds was presented very sensibly in that film. When it comes to… Continue reading Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya Review | A Fun Human Robo Rom-Com With an Underdeveloped Central Conflict

Fighter Review | Siddharth Anand’s Sophisticated-Gadar Is Surprisingly Not Bad

When I watched the trailer of the film Fighter, the overdose of hyper-nationalism, especially the dialogue about IOP (India Occupied Pakistan) made me wonder whether I will be watching a sophisticated version of Gadar in this Siddharth Anand film. Well, there is no denying the fact that the movie is playing to the gallery to… Continue reading Fighter Review | Siddharth Anand’s Sophisticated-Gadar Is Surprisingly Not Bad

Main Atal Hoon Review | A Selectively Curated Propaganda Package, Featuring a Standout Pankaj Tripathi

As someone who grew up in the ’90s, I remember Atal Bihari Vajpayee as a political figure who was always standing up for ideas of love and peace. Some have even called him the “right man in the wrong party.” The underwhelming part about the new movie Main Atal Hoon is that the peace-seeking, love-endorsing,… Continue reading Main Atal Hoon Review | A Selectively Curated Propaganda Package, Featuring a Standout Pankaj Tripathi

Merry Christmas Review | Sriram Raghavan’s Slow-Burn Mystery Thriller Is a Delightful Cinematic Experience

The first half of the new Sriram Raghavan movie Merry Christmas is a deliberately bad love story. I was like, why is this looking so odd? How can this be the draft Sriram opted to film out of the various versions he wrote? The first half that sort of establishes this romantic relationship felt like… Continue reading Merry Christmas Review | Sriram Raghavan’s Slow-Burn Mystery Thriller Is a Delightful Cinematic Experience
