Border 2 movie review
Based on the 1971 India–Pakistan war, covering Operation Chengiz Khan, the Battle of Poonch, the Battle of Basantar, and the defence of INS Khukri, Border 2 is the sequel to J.P. Dutta’s 1997 blockbuster Border. Directed by Anurag Singh, the film captures the grit and sacrifice of frontline soldiers while showcasing the combined strength of the Indian Army, Air Force and the Indian Navy. Its scale sets it apart, offering audiences a sweeping view of multi-front operations. With several war films released recently, Border 2 stands out for its well-crafted battle sequences, overseen by producer J.P. Dutta. Unlike its predecessor, it avoids excessive melodrama and comedy, opting for a more restrained presentation. However, compared to films like Dhurandhar and URI, some action scenes feel slightly tacky. Sunny Deol reprises his role as the central protagonist, joined by Varun D ....

Taskaree The Smugglers Web. Web series review
The latest eponymous OTT crime thriller series on Netflix which well describes itself, is about smuggling of gold, drugs, luxury items and expensive watches however primarily via air and more about gold or peela as it is called in the series. Gold has always allured our people. Taskaree: The Smuggler's Web review... The penchant for gold jewellery is well known, Indians have the largest domestic appetite for gold, the amount of house-held gold would embarrass even Fort Knox. Thus any import duty or taxation invites smuggling in this yellow metal. Historically too gold had been the most smuggled item apart from electronics till the 1990s however there was a lull in the interim period when the duty was reduced 2% but lately with the rates and duty going north it has come back in fashion. Taskaree: The Smuggler's Web is now streaming on NETFLIX (No. of episodes 7) It reveals how wi ....

Happy Patel movie review
Leave your brains at home to Happy Patel: Khatarnak Jasoos that sets out to reinvent the detective genre with a quirky, desi twist. It is a slapstick spy‑comedy, a parody on crime genre that leans heavily on absurd humor and frequently uttered Hindi words wrongly pronounced by a British-Indian which do not amuse you at all. Happy Patel (Vir Das), the adopted son of two British secret agents, dreams of following in his fathers’ footsteps by joining the elite MI7 agency. When his aspirations fall short, he discovers his Indian roots and is dispatched to Goa on a mission: to rescue a white woman forced into developing a fairness cream formula by the local don, Mama (Mona Singh). Bound by an inter‑generational feud with Happy, Mama seizes the chance to settle old scores. By the way - this jasoos turns out to be a master chef instead of being a dangerous spy. Just wongering whether t ....

The Rajasaab movie review
After a long inordinate wait filled with delays, controversies, and sky-high expectations, The Raja Saab has finally hit the screens. Starring Prabhas in the lead role, the film is marketed as a horror-comedy with fantasy elements, but instead turns out to be a slow, exhausting experience that lacks horror, comedy, emotional depth, and engaging narration. The RajaSaab movie review... Raja (Prabhas), lives with his grandmother Gangamma (Zareena Wahab) and his uncle’s daughter Anitha (Riddhi Kumar). Anitha loves Raja, while Gangamma suffers from Alzheimer’s disease and remembers only her husband Kanakaraju (Sanjay Dutt), who she believes is still alive. Raja learns that his grandfather may be in Hyderabad, near Charminar, and travels there. During this phase, he encounters a nun (Niddhi Agerwal) and instantly falls in love with her. It is now time for Bhairavi (Malavika Mohanan) ....

Ikkis movie review
Ikkis is based on the real-life heroism of Arun Khetarpal, the Param Vir Chakra recipient who laid down his life just after turning 21. Directed by Sriram Raghavan and produced by Dinesh Vijan and Binny Padda, Ikkis is a biographical war drama film based on the life of Second Lieutenant Arun Khetarpal and revolving around the Battle of Basantar during the Indo-Pakistani War of 1971. The film stars Agastya Nanda as Arun Khetarpal, Dharmendra (in his posthumous film debut) and Jaideep Ahlawat Arun Khetarpal's father M L Khetarpal (Dharmendra) goes to revisit those places after his son is dead. A brilliant film, but my only worry is that this kind of a film may not find audience as people are now saturated with war movies. Rather over-saturated. The story has war, action, emotions and is in a linear narrative about the war which happened at that time (the Indo-Pak war of 1971). ....

Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri movie review
Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri arrives with glossy packaging, a charming lead pair and postcard-perfect visuals of Croatia. Directed by Sameer Vidwans, the film promises romance and family drama but delivers a mixed bag—delightful in its first half and then a frustratingly illogical in its second. Ray (Kartik Aaryan) a wedding planner and Rumi's (Ananya Panday) chance meeting at an airport leads to camaraderie during a trip to Croatia, setting the stage for flirtation amid the postcard-perfect backdrop of Croatia. The narrative shifts from breezy rom-com to tackling taboo family values and generational expectations, aiming to balance entertainment with a social message. Kartik Aaryan is lovable as Ray, a wedding planner whose boyish charm and comic timing instantly win over the audience. He carries the breezy tone of the film with ease. Ananya Panday is ravishing, bringing f ....

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 ....

Dhurandhar movie review
Story telling at it's best, gradual and steady, Dhurandhar gets you hooked ... like reading an international thrilling bestseller. One requires patience to watch this spy action thriller till the end as it is virtually like reading a fictional novel. Directed by Aditya Dhar, the maker of Uri: The Surgical Strike, this Ranveer Singh actioner is a fictional narration of strategies and planning of several evil plans tailored by Pakistan (from that country's point of view) set against the backdrop of real-life geopolitical conflicts, including the IC‑814 hijacking (1999) and the Parliament attack (2001) and the 26/11 Mumbai attacks (2008). Dhurandhar follows the journey of a Punjabi youth (Ranveer Singh) held captive for committing a revenge-driven crime in his hometown. It is the Intelligence Bureau Chief Ajay Sanyal's design who crafts a daring mission to infiltrate and dismantle a ....

Tere Ishk Mein movie review
Tere Ishq Mein aims for grand emotional scope but overreaches with a meandering, illogical narrative that compromises believability. While the film puts its bets on emotional intensity and aesthetic spectacle, it falters in core storytelling, character consistency and pacing. With an illogical premise of the central character —an aspiring doctor conducting a thesis project on “controlling an angry person through counseling” that spirals into a romance—feels forced and cinematic to a fault. The film leans on far-fetched career twists (a vagrant to IAS officer to pilot) that undermine credibility and irritate viewers who crave internal logic. Characterisation leaves much to be desires with inconsistencies in Kriti Sanon’s dual role as researcher and love interest is muddled. The premise asks for a self-sacrificing, emotionally meticulous woman who simultaneously surrenders ....

Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari movie review
The above titled movie is the latest offering from Dharma Productions, this is amply made known with Karan Johar himself putting in an uninspiring cameo as a marriage celebrity. Released on 2nd October 2025, Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari  is now streaming on Netflix. Though it may suggest otherwise but the eponymous Sunny is not so 'sanskari' and Tulsi is not your average 'Main Tulsi tere angan ki' types. Like a rollercoaster it starts out as a fun flick then goes into conflict, then down to a tearjerker then again bouncing back for a happy ending. In current times love is just a 'situationship' until someone else comes along who attracts you so much that you will dump your love to marry a stranger, then explain it away as parental pressure. Then enter the ex-es wishing to break the newly formed alliance and reclaim what is theirs, they even have the gall to ask 'I hope you are n ....
