Indian 2 Review | The Return of Thatha Can Take Your Tolerance Levels to Zero

Shankar’s Indian was released in 1996, and for people like me, it is a part of childhood nostalgia largely due to the songs and set pieces. If I am not wrong, it sort of showed us this world of large-scale vigilante justice movies. After Indian, we have seen various iterations of mass movies that talk… Continue reading Indian 2 Review | The Return of Thatha Can Take Your Tolerance Levels to Zero

Ayalaan Review | A Broad-Stroke Sci-Fi Fantasy That Is Strictly for Kids

I am a bit confused about giving a verdict for the new Sivakarthikeyan movie Ayalaan. On one hand, it is a movie with a very simple and predictable story with every twist and turn feeling very familiar. And on the other hand, if you take your kids who aren’t much exposed to the sci-fi genre… Continue reading Ayalaan Review | A Broad-Stroke Sci-Fi Fantasy That Is Strictly for Kids

I Love You Review | Pavail Gulati Excels in This Flawed Thriller With a Captivating Premise

Nikhil Mahajan’s film I Love You, which is streaming on JioCinema, has a run time of 95 minutes and has a very enticing premise for a single-location thriller.

Chhatriwali Review | This “Reebook” Version of Vicky Donor Hardly Manages to Create Any Impact

Chhatriwali, the new Bollywood film starring Rakul Preet Singh in the central role, feels like a stretched-out government advertisement that wants to endorse safe sex by encouraging the use of condoms. But the movie directed by Tejas Deoskar has no original ideas to build a story around the theme. For almost 80% of its runtime,… Continue reading Chhatriwali Review | This “Reebook” Version of Vicky Donor Hardly Manages to Create Any Impact

Thank God Review | Thankfully, This Forgettable Fantasy Is Not a Patience Tester

Thank God from director Indra Kumar is a wannabe, feel-good movie with no plans to look fresh. Starring Ajay Devgn and Sidharth Malhotra in major roles, Thank God is a lazily written greenscreen comedy that had the scope to walk away from the template but chose to play it safe by having skit-level jokes. Ayaan… Continue reading Thank God Review | Thankfully, This Forgettable Fantasy Is Not a Patience Tester

Doctor G Review | Anubhuti Kashyap’s Film Is an Emotionally Winning Comedy Package

The brand Ayushmann Khurrana is known for taking up themes that have some social stigma attached to them, and so far, he has managed to have an excellent record in maintaining that brand. Of late, the preachiness of the movies was somewhat of a problem. But with Doctor G, the brand hits the sweet spot,… Continue reading Doctor G Review | Anubhuti Kashyap’s Film Is an Emotionally Winning Comedy Package

Cuttputlli

When I hear the song Tu Cheez Badi Hai Mast Mast, it somewhere takes me to those childhood memories of watching it on Doordarshan. To see the hero of that song play a 36-year-old police officer on screen in the new Disneyplus Hotstar film, Cuttputlli, is definitely a difficult thing. And it becomes even more… Continue reading Cuttputlli

De De Pyaar De

At the core of De De Pyaar De, there is a unique and interesting topic of the age gap in marriages. In one scene Ajay Devgn’s 50-year-old Ashish explains his confusion about getting married to a 26-year-old Ayesha as he fears how problematic things will be just after 10 years. The disappointment I felt after… Continue reading De De Pyaar De
