Kaccha Limboo, movie review
Kaccha Limboo is Writer-Director Sagar Bellary’s genuine attempt of a journey into the mind and heart of an overweight and somewhat irritated child Shambhu and tries to reason out why the kid is always so distressed and lonely. Kaccha Limboo is a coming-of-age early teen flick which is largely shot in the real corridors and classrooms of a Mumbai School. The slice-of-life moments in the school life are a delight, like when the kid is trying to copy his parent's signature in his school calendar, and many other hilarious moments that have you in splits. It is a tale of Shambhu (Taheer Sutarwala), a fat and clumsy 13 year old boy who has everything going against him - fights with seniors in school, warning from principal and so he decides to run away from home. Oddball Shambhu just can't fit in... like desperately trying to be a part of a group of his school friends, but they ign ....

Utt Pataang, movie review
Vinay Pathak, an established name in the ‘small’ films circuit plays a double role in this thriller Utt Pataang directed by Srikanth V. Velagaleti. Utt Pataang starts quite promisingly and is a thrilling comedy flick about several incidents occurring during a night. Utt Pataang isn’t a brainless comedy as the name suggests. Yet it has eccentric characters, nursing broken hearts and desperately longing for love. The film is basically an account of happenings on one particular night. Ram (Vinay Pathak) is a 35-year-old ordinary guy from Mumbai who has been ditched by his rough and foul-mouthed lady love Sanjana (Mahie Gill).. Nandu (Saurabh Shukla) is Ram’s friend a rather clueless, inept detective. While having dinner at a restaurant, Ram and Nandu meet Koyal (Mona Singh), a small-town girl who has been betrayed by her boyfriend. The cunning Nandu hooks up Ram with Koyal ....

Dil Toh Baccha Hai Ji, movie review
Dil Toh Baccha Hai Ji is a slice of life film about three men - Naren, Milind and Abhay and their encounters with love! There is an apparent resemblance to the much-acclaimed Basu Chatterjee’s 1981 romantic comedy Shaukeen which had three older men trying to get naughty in their elderly age. Here we have three middle-aged men in a real life day to day situation, trying to explore the love and lust aspect of their lives. Dil Toh Baccha Hai Ji movie review... A listless Naren Ahuja (Ajay Devgn), 38, working as a bank manager, is going through a divorce. He is going through a 'mid-life crisis".
