Sometimes when you watch a film, you wonder how this movie was approved on a script level. Because there is nothing much happening in those movies other than some random gags with a very impromptu feel in the execution. Khali Purse of Billionaires, starring Dhyan Sreenivasan and Aju Varghese as the main leads, is one… Continue reading Khali Purse of Billionaires Review | A Lousy and Insufferable Modern-Day Dasan-Vijayan Story

Saturday Night Review | This One Looks Like a Scrapped Draft of Zindagi NA Milegi Dobara
