Singham Again Review | Valmiki Might Reincarnate Just to Renew His IP and Stop More Ramayana Adaptations
Physics has always stayed away from Rohit Shetty’s movies, and so I was very cautious to put my thinking cap in the dustbin before entering the theater. Now, the problem is, since he is making movies about terrorism, India’s history, etc., in his cop universe movies, you can’t really part ways with rationality and logic… Continue reading Singham Again Review | Valmiki Might Reincarnate Just to Renew His IP and Stop More Ramayana Adaptations
Do Patti Review | Ekta Kapoor Serial-Like Sensibilities but on a Bigger Budget
Kanika Dhillon, the writer and co-producer of the new Netflix film Do Patti, is someone who has written some of the interesting female characters in the last decade or so in movies like Manmarziyan and Judgemental Hai Kya.

CTRL Review | Vikramaditya Motwane’s Screenlife Thriller Is Smart and Effective
If you look at the characters Nella, the lead of CTRL, and Bella, the lead of Call Me Bae, the behavioral patterns of both these characters have a similarity.

Yudhra Review | A Derivative Action Thriller With Forced Swagger
Yudhra, the latest Excel entertainment film directed by Ravi Udyawar, starring Siddhant Chaturvedi as the title character, is so generic that you feel like asking the makers whether the characters in the movie don’t watch movies. Filled with predictable scenes one after the other, Yudhra almost feels like an autogenerated script that uses a lot… Continue reading Yudhra Review | A Derivative Action Thriller With Forced Swagger
Vedaa Review | An Inept Action Flick Focused More on John Abraham’s Biceps Than Caste Politics
The theme of the latest John Abraham starrer Vedaa, directed by Nikkhil Advani, is the injustice faced by lower caste people. And there is this sequence in the film where the title character Vedaa, who aspired to learn boxing, gets abused by the upper caste men.
