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.

Speedy Singhs - movie review
A Hollywood production titled Breakaway has it release in India as Speedy Sings. The film is a cross-cultural hockey drama set in the Indo-Canadian community in suburban Toronto, Canada.

Chatur Singh Two Star - movie review
Chatur Singh Two Star is based on a novel, titled Chalak Jasoos by M. Raza. The only admirable thing in this film Chatur Singh Two Star is the outstanding cinematography which captures the attractive, wonderful locales of Cape Town in South Africa. All characters try their best and end up indulging in buffoonery. The punches and jokes do not appeal at all. There is nothing like a story in this film. Just unsuccessful attempts to pack one joke after another. Chatur Singh 2 Star enacted by Sanjay Dutt is a police officer always ending up botching up cases and making a fool of himself. He is a disgrace to the Mumbai Police Department. Inspite of making a mess of almost every case handed to him, Chatur Singh has just been handed the biggest case in the department's history. This is a perfect chance for him to prove everyone why he is the best officer they have. A corrupt polit ....
