Haram

Even though the audience was not at all finding Haram interesting, I personally loved the first half an hour of the movie that kind of initiated an interesting debate about the modern day relationships.

Shamitabh

The best part of director Balki’s latest movie Shamitabh is the competition between the well established Amitabh Bachchan and the talented Dhanush. The on screen sync of this pair helps the movie very much in becoming an attention-grabbing narrative. The director’s intention to make this movie a less ambitious one has definitely made it a… Continue reading Shamitabh
