Durlabh Prasad Ki Dusri Shadi – Movie Review

It's ironical that these days, people sometimes regret even one marriage, but here, Durlabh Prasad is looking for a second marriage. And the story of Durlabh Prasad Ki Dusri Shadi justifies it. Siddharth Raj Singh has directed this film that stars Sanjay Mishra and Shrikant Verma, besides them, you get to see Mahima Chaudhry after a long time. The new girl Pallak Lalwani and the young boy Vyom Yadav are promising actors. The story of Durlabh Prasad Ki Dusri Shadi is very interesting and it doesn't appear cliched or monotonous. Vam Yadav plays the role of Murli, and Palak Lallwani plays the role of Mehak. You might get confused for a second, thinking that Palak Lalwani looks very much like Mrunal Thakur. They have a lot of similarities on the facial front. When Murli asks for Mehak's hand in marriage, Mehak's (Palak Lalwani's) family puts a condition that their daughter will not ....

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� ....

Jolly LLB 3 – movie review

Jolly LLB 3 opens with an oddly amateurish tone, featuring cringeworthy and implausible banter between its two Jollys—Arshad Warsi as Advocate Jagdish 'Jolly' Tyagi and Akshay Kumar as Advocate Jagdishwar 'Jolly' Mishra. Instead of sharp legal wit, we get courtroom comedy that feels more rehearsed than real.

When a powerful business group unveils grand plans to transform Bikaner into the next Boston, small farmers find themselves sidelined. Their legitimate demands are ignored, and force is used to suppress dissent. What begins as a development dream soon spirals into a controversy ~~Read More~~

Bhool Chuk Maaf – movie review



Bhool Chuk Maaf the film captures small-town romance between Ranjan and Titli. The girl's father sets a precondition that the boy should have a government job for which the boy resorts to help by bribing a middleman scamster for securing the job. Their romance blooms across the ghats, narrow streets of Benaras, Uttar Pradesh. Accepted, that it gives a realistic feeling but aren't there too many other films who have showcased the interiors of Uttar Pradesh. Where is the scenic beauty? We are bored watching the small streets and the nukkads of our interiors. Coming back to the story, much to Ranjan's horror, the scamster vanishes leaving him to a dead end when the boy takes a vow at Lord Shiva's temple to perform a noble deed if his wish is fulfilled. As Ranjan prepares for his wedding, a bizarre time loop occurs, with Titli being oblivious to it, repeatedly resetting the days bef ....

Emergency – movie review



Kangana Ranaut makes an honest and sincere attempt to recreate one of the most significant and dreadful political events in India's history, Emergency imposed way back in 1975, with a profound impact on the nation. Director and lead actor Kangana Ranaut attempts to recreate this painful and tumultuous chapter of history on the big screen with a lot of clarity and wisdom. It is not easy to trace the genesis of a poignant era like Emergency in the country with fluidity but Kangana aces in her job not only as a writer but also as the producer and actor with effortless ease. The movie draws inspiration from Coomi Kapoor’s book The Emergency and also Jayanth Sinha’s Priyadarshini. The narrative starts in 1929 and spans four decades, covering India’s Independence, the Indo-China War and Assam crisis in 1962, Indira Gandhi’s rise to power, and the Indo-Pak war of 1971. While the f ....

Ghudchadi – movie review



Streaming on the OTT platform – JIO Cinema, the first mention of this movie Ghudchadi would bring a picture in the mind of that of a big fat Indian wedding. By the way Ghudchadi is a North Indian custom during the wedding celebrations, the groom comes riding on a white mare along with a procession towards the wedding venue, usually being the bride’s home or any place arranged by the bride’s family. However the 'band baaja and baraat' arrives only at the fag end of the movie and this happens after a lot of rona dhona, an unraveling of a truth and a car accident. It starts as an innocent tale of a family who love and respect each other, consisting of three individuals – one is the grandma Kalyani Devi (Aruna Irani), her son Veer (Sanjay Dutt) and her grandson Chirag (Parth Samthaan). The grandma is keen to get her grandson married before she kicks the buck ....

Auron Mein Kahan Dum Tha – movie review



We are reviewing this Ajay Devgn Tabu starrer 'Auron mein kahan dam tha' which is about a couple's love story that ranges 23 years from 2000 to 2023. After watching the entire film, any mature viewer would have felt that the apt title should have been - Audience mein Kahan Dimag tha??!! This flick starring Ajay Devgan and Tabu with Jimmy Shergill in tow, and I wonder what made Jimmy to sign it? The movie is an old tale of Bollywood movies of 70s and 80s, that is about a young loverboy (Shantanu Maheshwari who plays the character of young Ajay Devgn) killing people to save the honour of his beloved (Saiee Manjrekar playing the young character of Tabu) thus going to jail and scarifying his whole life. Yes, Auron Mein Kahan Dum Tha delves into the emotional depth but isn't is somewhat like the stories of the 70s and the 80s? Anyway, writer-director Neeraj Pandey has added an u ....

PIND DAAN (Short Film) review



PIND DAAN, the short film takes you on a roller coaster ride of a cop who also has a human side. At times it is certainly difficult to erase the memories of certain incidents that have happened in one's childhood. Shiv Patil, a young police officer in the Mumbai police department, struggles with his deeply ingrained turbulence of emotions as he oscillates between his professional duty, his pregnant sister and a devastated inner child resulting from a dark past. His sister has forgotten and forgiven the past, while the inspector isn't able to erase those hardships of his childhood. Instead his sister professes him to come out of the world of his duty and criminals and have a different outlook in life. Shiv had lost his parents in his childhood itself and he was brought up by his 'Mama' (maternal uncle) who is in the last stage of his life. The incidents of his late maternal uncle w ....
