Dobaaraa (2022)
Not bad
It honestly wasn't a bad film. Although I generally dislike Taapse Pannu as an actress it's a decent one time watch. I haven't seen the Spanish original and I don't think many Desi's will have either, so it's better than 90% of the current Bollywood movies which have been released this year. Some aspects of the plot are a little illogical but I guess they are the same in the original.
The pacing could have been tightened a little, and songs are redundant. Taapse could have been a more likeable protagonist and you would have sympathised with her marital situation better. The rest of the cast are OK but nothing memorable.
House Arrest (2019)
Waste of time
This film had no story or purpose. I was hoping there would be some great twist in the end, honestly it was a waste of time.
3 Deewarein (2003)
very enjoyable film
This is a very different film from the usual bollywood love and action crap, it might take some influences from the Shawshank Redemption and other American prison films but overall it is a very original and fresh film. Naseeruddin Shah really shines and the ending is good. The film is basically about an amateur filmmaker (Juhi Chawla) that wants to make a documentary about 3 prisoners on death row. They are on death row for murder, accidental or premeditated. As the film progresses you learn more about each of the prisoners and how prison has affected their life. Overall it is a pretty damn enjoyable film, and it has NO SONGS
