De De Pyaar De 2 – movie review

De De Pyaar De 2 is a glossy sequel that falls much behind the charm of its predecessor, lacking the freshness of it's first part. The film sort of reminds one of Cheeni Kum quite often while watching it. This romantic comedy stumbles over uneven writing, not so funny moments and lacks emotional depth. After having convinced his family of his choice of getting married to Ayesha Khurana (28 years old) in De De Pyaar De, Ashish Mehra the 52-year-old London-based NRI investor now embarks on seeking approval from Ayesha's family. Though it shouldn't have been surprising that the girl's father is just a year older than the groom. Proclaiming that they are "We are educated progressive people, modern cultured thinking", yet the girls parents are not happy with her choice of marrying a man who is almost her father's age, divorced and has 2 grown up children. Ayesha tells Ashish ....

Hi Zindagi – movie review

Blending emotional drama with a socially urgent message, Hi Zindagi ignites a powerful conversation around the need to make India’s rape laws gender-neutral.

Directed by Ajay Ram and produced by lawyer-turned-filmmaker Sunil Kumar Aggarwal, the film boldly confronts a legal system that fails to recognize male victims of sexual violence—exposing the silence, stigma, and systemic gaps that surround their trauma.

Can men also be victims of sexual violence?

This is the haunting question Hi Zindagi raises through its unsettling narrative, inspired by real-life incidents. The film follows four affluent, carefree women� ....

Ek Chatur Naar – movie review

The eponymous name of the movie Ek Chatur Naar, has been derived from the song of the movie Padosan, however it has no further bearing than that on this movie storyline. This 2025 movie that is a duel of cleverness, vigilance and prudence has been released on Netflix. It is about a cat and mouse game between the haves and the have nots the good and the evil, the slum dwellers vis-a-vis the rich and famous. Beginning with a high-end phone theft and culminating in a kidnap climax, it has a lot going for it in-between. The story is simple yet has a lot of twists and turns, what with both sides trying to outdo each other. A legit conman Niel Nitin Mukesh who is a conduit through whom the state CM siphons off government funds, is conned, and who calls him out at his own game. It is the middle aged mom played with great chutzspah and spunk by Divya Khosla Kumar who while desperately tryi ....

Jatadhara – movie review

Jatadhara is an engaging, visually striking supernatural thriller that successfully merges commercial spectacle with artistic expression. It begins with a mythical narrative of how hundreds of years ago, with absence of banks or safe deposit vaults, when people used to store and hide gold and valuables beneath their homes to safeguard their hard earned wealth from dacoits. The introduction goes back and forth from the current day seminar on paranormal phenomenon and ghosts by the Indian Paranormal League where one attendee stands out declaring that he strongly believes that there are no ghosts. The film's central concept, blending the ancient legends of the Anantha Padmanabha Swamy Temple's hidden treasures with a modern-day conflict between faith and science, is undeniably intriguing. However, directors Venkat Kalyan and Abhishek Jaiswal struggle to maintain a balance, resulting in a ....

Thamma – movie review

Thamma is a love story set in a world where vampires exist. Alok (Ayushmann Khurrana) meets Tadaka (Rashmika Mandanna), and what follows is a tussle between love and the supernatural. Overall, with Thamma and the MHCU (Maddock Horror Comedy Universe), there has been a valiant attempt to reclaim this genre. For the most part, Thamma delivers on being a well-made fantasy film. The world of Thamma is very familiar. In part, it borrows from its predecessors, Stree and Bhediya, in terms of look and feel—color palette, screenplay structure, and the cross-pollination of characters moving between these films. The rest, it borrows familiar elements from Western vampire lore: training montages, the werewolf–vampire connection, and a ‘head’ clan governed by strict rules. Yet, Thamma manages to feel refreshingly original. The film’s well-handled treatment of the genre, seamlessly woven ....

Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat – movie review

Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat is a film that wears its heart on its sleeve—but that heart is stuck in a bygone era. For fans of melodrama and intense romance, it might be a 'one-time watch'. For others, it’s a reminder that passion without perspective can feel more exhausting than exhilarating. Harshvardhan Rane debuted in Bollywood with Sanam Teri Kasam (2016), earning a strong female fan base. Sonam Bajwa, a top name in Punjabi cinema, recently grabbed headlines for her standout role in Housefull 5. It is a visually lush but narratively dated romantic thriller that leans heavily on melodrama and nostalgia, with performances that try to salvage a script stuck in the past. Vikram Aditya Bhosle (Harshvardhan Rane) is a brooding, intense lover whose affection for Adaa Randhawa (Sonam Bajwa) spirals into obsession. What begins as a poetic romance quickly descends into a psychologica ....
