Titli Movie Review
A slow-burning, searing crime drama that shuns the conventional trappings of the genre, first-time director Kanu Behl’s Titli is a remarkably sure-footed film. Its dark, disturbing screenplay (Kanu Behl, Sharat Kaytariya) explores Delhi-NCR’s grimy underbelly and delves into the ugly innards of a family that subsists on the margins of the city. Titli is the story of a […]
Jazbaa Movie Review
It is but natural for a Bollywood diva making a comeback to go hell for leather. Likewise, a consummate actor taking each scene as it comes, with customary poise, is par for the course. Together, however, they make Jazbaa, another flashy but torpid remake of a Korean thriller from Sanjay Gupta, a rather disorienting affair. As […]
Singh is Bliing Movie Review
Another Prabhu Deva film that operates on the principle that the world is still inhabited by Neanderthals, Singh is Bliing goes all out to redefine cinematic trash. A blundering hero in search of a mission in life, a kickass female protagonist who packs a mean punch, a sleepwalking interpreter who is more than just an English-to-Hindi translator […]
Talvar Movie Review
Talvar is a minor miracle of a movie. Mining riveting yet balanced drama from a real-life murder case lost in a tangled web of fact, fiction, hearsay and insinuations could not have been easy. But not a wee bit of the effort shows. At one level, Talvar is a classic whodunit and a sharply observant police procedural that […]

Aishwarya Rai Bachchan’s Jazbaa May Have This Extra-Special Bonus
It appears that Amitabh Bachchan may not be the only singing star of Bollywood’s First Family.

It quotes a source as having said, “Aishwarya has been sounded […]
All Is Well Movie Review
All is far from well with All Is Well, but this road trip dramedy has just about enough impetus not to be thrown completely off its chosen track by its occasional inertia. Director Umesh Shukla switches frequently from breezy slapstick comedy to intense family drama and does so relatively smoothly until about the last quarter of […]
Papanasam Movie Review
The Kamal Haasan we get to see in Papanasam, the Tamil remake of Malayalam blockbuster Drishyam, is the actor that made him a legend; an acting idol for many contemporary and upcoming actors. Not the star he has grown into in recent years trying to don multiple hats to direct, write, sing, and produce all at once. […]
Guddu Rangeela Movie Review
It’s a timeworn formula. Take a pair of unflappable goofballs with a penchant for trouble, throw them into a series of life-threatening situations, and then watch them wriggle their way in and out of danger. Despite the done-to-death feel inherent in that construct, it can yield an engaging tale when informed with the right dashes […]

Miss Tanakpur Haazir Ho Movie Review
Do not look for surface gloss in Miss Tanakpur Haazir Ho. There is none. It is after all a film about a baffled buffalo whose plight is meant to show us why the law is such a blind ass. For those looking for a break from the Bollywood staple of star-studded, buffed up, feel-good entertainers, this […]

Hamari Adhuri Kahani Movie Review
SPOILERS ALERT Director Mohit Suri’s Hamari Adhuri Kahani is an anachronistic, tragic romance that touches an emotional chord, yet, makes you dismiss it as a regressive piece of art. The direction appears confused, with a present-day setting, while the treatment of the plot and characters belong to a bygone era. The story, with its verbose, melodramatic and […]
Everything About the Baahubali Trailer is Epic

Filmmaker Karan Johar, who is presenting the film, tweeted a link to the trailer of ‘India’s biggest motion picture.’ Almost instantly, the hashtag #BaahubaliTrailer began to trend. The two-minute long clip is filled with […]
The Second Best Exotic Marigold Hotel: The Stakes Are Raised, And So Is the Romance
Beyond its blindingly colorful palette, the pleasures to be gleaned from the sequel to the 2012 hit The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel derive from watching its eminent, mostly British cast ham it up while trying to inflate dramatic molehills into mountains. To get away with pretending that less is more, strenuous overacting is required. But for die-hard […]
