The good thing and the problem with the new Netflix movie All Together Now is its familiarity.

Maniyarayile Ashokan
5 Years ago, around this time there was another Onam release in Malayalam that marked the debut of director Basil Joseph; Kunjiramayanam. The first half of, this year’s first Onam release Maniyarayile Ashokan directed by Shamzu Zayba, reminded me of that fun experience I had while watching Kunjiramayanam.

Raat Akeli Hai
Raat Akeli Hai directed by Honey Trehan is a whodunit that isn’t completely surprising. Well, the trailer of the movie showed us an inspector Jatil Yadav who was completely clueless about the criminal. When it comes to the movie, that cluelessness is definitely there, but the excitement is slightly off. With the help of the… Continue reading Raat Akeli Hai
Indian Matchmaking
