Ek chatur naar movie review
The eponymous name of the movie Ek Chatur Naar, has been derived from the song of the movie Padosan, however it has no further bearing than that on this movie storyline. This 2025 movie that is a duel of cleverness, vigilance and prudence has been released on Netflix. It is about a cat and mouse game between the haves and the have nots the good and the evil, the slum dwellers vis-a-vis the rich and famous. Beginning with a high-end phone theft and culminating in a kidnap climax, it has a lot going for it in-between. The story is simple yet has a lot of twists and turns, what with both sides trying to outdo each other. A legit conman Niel Nitin Mukesh who is a conduit through whom the state CM siphons off government funds, is conned, and who calls him out at his own game. It is the middle aged mom played with great chutzspah and spunk by Divya Khosla Kumar who while desperately tryi ....

City of Dreams - Season 2 - review
The second season of this well made family political drama City of Dreams - is here upon us now trending on Disney Hotstar. All you wanted to know how politics works and what people do to remain in power is a lesson beyond that one learnt from Mahabharat as there the fight for power was between cousins but here it is within the family, between the brother-sister in the first season with the brother ending in a watery death at the hands of the sister and now in this season the tussle for power is between daughter and father. The series is structured well as far as the story-screenplay combo goes however it is not entirely seamless as it regresses in flashbacks without warning. The acting department is well managed with veterans Atul Kulkarni and Sachin Pilgaonkar enacting important characters around whom the series usually revolves. There are two surprises though in the form of Ejaz ....

Hulla, movie review
This energetic bittersweet comedy, more accurately perhaps - drama with a sense of humour, Hulla turns a contemporary eye on something that is taken too much for granted in Indian cities, especially Mumbai – private space. It’s about the clash between a stockbroker who is not allowed to sleep at night and a small-time trader who won’t let him (as the secretary of the building society they live in). This seemingly trivial, even laughable, problem eventually snowballs into disasters for both of them and their families, while unspooling the attitudes of people around them. Raj and Abha, a couple in their early-thirties, move into their new 2-bedroom flat in a Mumbai suburb. They are both very happy as only new home-owners can be in Mumbai. Since the flat is in a residential complex away from the bustle of the city and the main road, they both expect peace and quiet. Raj (Sushant ....
