What’s Good: The procedural part of a crime investigation is deftly shown. This includes how the police correlate observation and thought with evidence and forensic angles. The performances are more than competent and there is a tangible atmosphere in most of the film. I also liked the unexpected turns that come at periodic intervals and the way the villain’s unrepentant character is presented.
What’s Bad: The script not only meanders in places but, more importantly, incorporates silly gaffes and flaws that could have been completely eliminated by some basic thinking. The post-climactic sequence where the cops are discussing the case jars...

It has been over 3.5 years since Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput left for his heavenly abode.

Merry Christmas Box Office Collection Day 4 Early Estimates (PC: IMDb)
It remains unfortunate that a masterpiece like Merry Christmas hasn’t been able to pick up the momentum yet. Sriram Raghavan’s AndhaDhun began on a similar note in 2018, but the buzz by now was sky-high. Despite highly favorable reviews, that isn’t the case with this mystery thriller. Scroll below to learn how Katrina Kaif and Vijay Sethupathi’s film faired on Makar Sankranti!
First things first, there may not be new releases in Bollywood, but Merry Christmas isn’t the only option at the ticket windows. Shah Rukh Khan‘s Dunki, Salaar’s Prabhas, and Ranbir Kapoor’s Animal are still adding footfalls, although minimal. In addition, the latest Telugu releases like Guntur Kaaram, HanuMan, and Saindhav are also stealing its limelight.

Babli Bouncer(Disney+Hotstar)
Starring Tamannaah Bhatia,Saurav Shukla, Abhishek Bajaj
Directed by Madhur Bhandarkar
Although Madhur Bhandarkar’ s Babli Bouncer is not as probing and revealing about the world of club bouncers as Chandni Bar was about bar girls, and although it is not as good as Bhandarkar’s Fashion or Page 3, it is still superior to the director’s recent films, and a lot better than some of the crap that hit theatres and Ott this week.
Tamannaah Bhatia in the title role is the narrative’s mainstay, though to say that she is the only reason to watch the film is a bit of an exaggeration. Though the writing could have been a lot sharper, I nonetheless found the plot to be taut and fraught with grit and guts. It is always a pleasure to visit films that show women invading what is traditionally the main domain,...

Shershaah (Amazon Prime)

There is something irrefutably comforting about a bio-pic, specially if it chronicles the life of a true hero. And I do want to stress, true hero. In recent years we’ve had too many Bollywood bio-pics on gangsters and politicians and gangster-politicians. Shershaah honours a man who gave up his life at age 24 for his country.
Sure, we honoured Vikram Batra with a Paramvir Chakra. But ask his family, if the medal comforts them when they remember Vikram every single day. To his credit, Sidharth Malhotra plays Vikram Batra with a sincerity and honesty that shine through in every frame. In every frame he is Rajesh Khanna in Anand and Aradhana. You know he is going to be missed sorely once he’s gone.

Sidharth Malhotra, the star of the upcoming Amazon Prime Video Original Shershaah, has revealed that the inspiration for taking on the role as the heroic Captain Vikram Batra came from a meeting with Vikram’s real-life twin brother, Vishal Batra, five years ago.
Shershaah, an original war drama on the true-life events of the Kargil War between India and Pakistan in 1999, tells the story of Captain Vikram Batra, a celebrated Indian army hero who selflessly lost his life whilst saving a fellow soldier during a war which would etch itself into Indian history. At just 24, Vikram became a symbol of the patriotism and heroism associated with India’s triumph against the odds against the Pakistani army who took up a far more advantageous position at higher ground and were able to fire down at vulnerable Indian forces. Despite this, the Indian army were triumphant in claiming victory and Captain Vikram...

Dil Bechara (Disney-Hotstar)
Starring Sushant Singh Rajput, Sanjana Sanghi
Directed by Mukesh Chhabra
It is very difficult to not get emotional about Dil Bechara, it’s about two dying people in love. Also, and more importantly, the film’s hero, a true hero if ever there was one, left us before the film could be released.
There is no denying the fact that the emotions connected to the experience of watching the film overlap dangerously with our feelings about the real-life tragedy that underlines the onscreen goings-on. And to watch Sushant dying in the film, asking his best friend(Sahil Vaid), ‘Will you miss me?’ from the deathbed is beyond ominous.
For us watching the film after its leading man’s death a month ago, Dil Bechara is more than a film. It is a warm, affectionate, cute and cuddly send-off to an actor who had so much to give.

Badrinath Ki Dulhaniya
Starring Varun Dhawan, Alia Bhatt
Written & Directed by Shashank Khaitan
From Jhansi to Singapore….phew! This is one helluva joyride. Badrinath Ki Dulhaniya(Bkd) starts off looking like one of those obnoxious rom-coms where the hero won’t take a no for an answer and the reluctant heroine will finally say yes.
You know those Govinda-Karisma Kapoor types? Gosh, didn’t we leave them behind?
But no! Bkd surprises you. It even steals your heart at the end of the journey. As writer-director Shashank Khaitan’s portrayal of small-town ambitions explodes on screen in multiple manoeuvres of high drama and cunning comedy, he never allows the proceedings to get out of hand.
The number of times the narration threatens to fall over the edge, is not funny. No one topples over even when the characters are boozed out of their heads.
Yup, this film knows where to draw the line.

Agastya Films’ black comedy thriller Baa Baaa Black Sheep starring Manish Paul has just completed its first shoot schedule. The slickly-shot entertainer – directed by Vishwas Paandya and produced by Anand Swarup Agarwal & Krishna Datla – revolves around Baba (Manish Paul), who is initiated into his family business when he turns 25 by his father (played by Anupam Kher). But a professional revelation turns Baba’s personal life upside down and how he comes of age juggling his love life with his professional one, forms the crux of this comic thriller.
Laced with rather highly-stylish action sequences, the film also stars versatile veterans Anupam Kher and Annu Kapoor in very interesting roles.
Director Vishwas Paandya reveals that they will commence the second 40-day schedule in Goa in February next year. He says, “The film is based in Goa and will see Manish in a more subtle avatar, yet in perfect sync with the comic-timing.

Now this is what you call a rom-com! Frothy, saucy, and having just the right emotional base. Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge got it best two decades ago. Lots of films since then have followed the same template. So much so that it has become quite tiresome now. Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania is also an unapologetic tribute to the evergreen classic and thankfully, one that appears fresh despite having the age-old plot.
Kavya (Alia Bhatt) meets Humpty (Varun Dhawan) when she goes to Delhi from Ambala for her wedding shopping. She is a self-professed ‘patakha’ and he a sweet rogue. The expected follows, but she has to return home and get married to the Nri that her father has chosen for her. In true Raj-style Humpty follows her to win over his Simran’s family.
Despite a predictable plot, debutant director Shashank Khaitan creates a fun ride which ensures that the smile never leaves your face.

Looking at the amount of people jumping into the industry, the limelight remains only on the leads. While we know that Alia Bhatt and Varun Dhawan are playing the lead stars in Karan Johar's upcoming film Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania, there's yet another important character in the movie. Well this time it's not all about the leads; it is also about the character role play. And who is this guy?? It's a character artist, Sahil Vaid. He will be seen in Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania wh...

Sometimes you just don’t get the subtle hints that come your way. Or maybe like the pyar in this movie you are sometimes plain stupid. So even after seeing the disaster of a promo, the entirely empty multiplex and the somewhat incessant ads on the screen about emergency escape exits, I still decided to go through the gem of a movie called Ye Stupid Pyar.
The ad hoc scenes contribute to make a storyline which goes like this. Nri Abhishek (Jatin Khurana) meets salsa teacher cum gym trainer Neha (Noopur Patwardhan) and falls in love with her. They get married and move to Bangkok – on her insistence – but she disappears the first day itself. Enter Abhishek’s college best friend Simran (Akansha Shivhare) who helps Abhishek in finding Neha and the reason behind her leaving Abhishek.
When the previous paragraph itself sounds silly enough, I wonder how the makers...
