PINK, hindi movie
Can't a working girl have a drink and dinner with her friends? What about those girls who stay independently, have a career and once in a while indulge in partying with their friends?

Yet, a section of the feudal society still labels them as 'characterless girls'. Shoojit Sircar's PINK, a social thriller film depicts the story of three girls who share an apartment in Delhi.

Baar Baar Dekho also marks the debut of American screenwriter Sri Rao which made news about this film which is based on an ageing romance spanning 30 odd years.

Hai Apna Dil Toh Awara - movie review
Here is a rom-com quite different from the ones we see these days. Shot extensively in the picturesque locales of Kashmir, Hai Apna Dil Toh Awara is a story of three couples who have their own point of views about life and when their thoughts collide, it's a Bull vs Matador fight to the finish for them. It is generally evident in the couples of urban cities of India where they are immersed in their own web of problems, relationships and social obligations. The real romance is missing in the lives of these 3 couples. One of them is a playboy, the other is a henpecked husband and the third is a mama's boy, enough to upset his wife. Tony Singh (Sahil Anand) is a perfect con artist when it comes to women has his lady love Pooja Mehta (Niyati Joshi) in a web of dreams around him. Rikki Dalwani's (Vikram Kochhar) life is a beach resort where he has this perfect wife Sanya Dalwani (Divya C ....
