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 ....

Pyaari Tarawali film review
Pyaari Tarawali The True Story traces the journey of emotions and struggles that a girl goes through yet it also depicts (though subtly) the helplessness of a single man who is subject to ridicule just because he is still unmarried at the age of 38. This man works hard to keep his wife happy but towards the end his wife deserted him as this woman had some more desires in life that she gets swayed by sweet talks of her ex-boyfriend and ends up in a mess only for her own wrong-doings. Pyaari in her infanthood had been bought up by her mother narrating a story that one day a Knight in Shining Armor would come and marry this girl who would then rule as a Queen and live happily ever after. Is that the end? No. Pyaari had unending desires for herself. Though Pyaari had suffered marriage break-up twice, the third time she found the right man who respected her, cared and loved her, yet ....

Love All movie review
The over protective father desires to safeguard his son from any psychological or physican harm in the future, unlike the trouble he went through in his school and college days. Love All movie review... "The young ones have infinite dreams and they eat sleep and think of only one thing - Their game. Only to experience shattered dreams as one in a million reach the Olympics or the altair of their game receiving medals and big fat cheques. Rest of them just fade over in time and don't they deserve a life of dignity?" says the father who has seen it in the eyes of those children in sport sweating it out under the scorching sun." His child's teacher beautifully summed it, "What a child can learn in the field of sport cannot be learnt in any academics. It is only this interest in sport that makes the child different from the average ones. At least the sport teaches him to be a better in ....

Neeyat film review
Neeyat opens with an extremely impressive and refreshing visuals of chilled crispiness of Scottish woods, grandeur of a well maintained vast estate house while introducing the characters. Aashish Kapoor (Ram Kapoor) has invited his close friends and family for celebrating his birthday in a low key private gathering (unlike the grand birthday parties of past) in his castle in Scotland. In the short list of about a dozen invitees, probably less, this billionaire has invited his ex-flame, his tarot card reader cum guide, his close Doctor friend and his wife who was close to him in the days gone by. Till the reception of guests and the display of Scottish landscape, Neeyat keeps you engrossed in the hope of experiencing something awesome like Agatha Christie mysteries that are usually unfolded on a grand scale. As the story proceeds, you see that the service staff of the castle has bee ....

Adipurush movie review
Adipurush, made on a huge budget of 700 crores (so the makers claim) supposedly an adaptation of Valmiki’s Ramayana makes you tired with its running time of three hours begins with Ravana (Saif Ali Khan) doing penance in front of Brahma and Ravana abducting Janaki (Kriti Sanon) in the disguise of a sadhu and provoking Ram to come for him with the kind of rage which usually isn’t the emotion you’d connect with him. Fast forward to Ram seeking the help of Sugreev, Lord Hanuman (Devdatta Nage), and his brother Lakshman (Sunny Singh), and setting out on the journey of bringing Janaki back from Ravana’s control. The narrative wastes no time in establishing characters or Ram’s aura or what led to his exile from Ayodhya. The director does not at all waste time on building up the story of what led Ram to be banished from Ayodhya on exile and just focuses on Janaki’s treacherous ab ....

Shubh Nikah movie review
What makes the narrative of Shubh Nikah different from the other yarns of this ilk is the fact it maintains a progressive tone in storytelling even as it sets out to convey its message, making the film a well-intentioned effort, says Jyothi Venkatesh. The film is about a young Hindu boy Munnalal Mishra (Rohit Vikram) and a young Muslim girl Zoya (Aksha Pardasany) who fall in love with each other, without realising the obstacles and difficulties that their love will have to face. At first, though both the families object to this relationship when the love birds convince their respective families that the other is willing to convert, they agree. The families once again develop cold feet when, because of the impending conversion, trouble-makers try to start mayhem and threaten to start communal riots. The plot is definitely as old as the hills about two people from di ....

Ajay Devgn in Bholaa
At the outset, let me warn you that this film is man adaptation of the Karthi starrer Kaithi. Right from the first frame till the last, the film abounds with excessive violence and gory scenes. Bholaa (Ajay Devgn), an absentee father waiting to unite with his daughter, is the protagonist, a man of very few words, who shows all his angst and pain through his eyes, in the film.Bholaa channels his inner rudra avatar to fight like a fearless warrior and battles a horde of gangs, right from bike-driving baddies to well-greased, kachcha-sporting villains, to remove all the obstacles that come in the way of him meeting his daughter. Bholaa, who is released from then prison after 10 years, is desperately waiting to meet his daughter for the first time, but IPS officer Diana Joseph (Tabu) leaves him with no choice but to help her in a high-pressure situation that involves the drug mafia, the c ....

Khela Hobe movie review
Khela Hobe is thriller that is directed by Sunil C Sinha, that begins as a drama which turns into a thriller when a single woman Shabbo (Mughda Godse) who avenges the atrocities imposed upon her family by the village Thakur. This could probably be the last film that veteran actor Om Puri has been featured and it has the glam girl Mughda Godse playing the simple woman small town, yet in a pivotal character in the story. Khela Hobe is set in a small town in Benaras and is all about the patriarchial society that still exists in several part of the interiors of our country. The narrow mindset of the locals, their attitude about the single woman Shabbo who runs a Beauty parlour and the superficial family values intertwined along with the hollow relationship of the locals and the powerful in this sleepy town are portrayed in this drama. Given an opportunity, the single woman Shabbo wh ....

Main Raj Kapoor Ho Gaya movie review
The film Main Raj Kapoor Ho Gaya revolves around Raj (Manav Sohal) and Suman (Arshin Mehta) who have a happy marriage until an unfortunate incident takes place and claims Suman’s life, forcing Raj to become an alcoholic a la Devdas. The film is about a man who, despite being born in a world full of hoggish beliefs, chooses to live a life of truth and honesty and believes in the fact that God created everyone as equals. In a strange turn of events, one fateful night, his mundane life turns upside down when he shelters and protects a woman (Nazia Hussain) from goons. From now onwards a strange relationship develops wherein she is not able to recollect anything from her past and he who desperately wants to forget his past.
