It appears that the Hindi film industry seeks a Nana Patekar from time-to-time (Fortunately he is back with Tvw). It was in 1994, only a couple of years post riots that Nana Patekar had mouthed the famous dialogue about discrimination (through blood) of individuals from two religion in ‘Krantiveer’. “ये मुसलमान का खून ये हिन्दू का खून…. बता इस में मुसलमान का कौन सा हिन्दू का कौनसा… बता।”, so, in response to Nana’s secularist / humanist dialogue, the makers of ‘The Great Indian Family’ have literally narrated how we can differentiate and create a rift between fellow brethren. This is the height of being cliché.
In this day and age when the world is looking at Bharat as the most secular democracy, why do filmmakers have to bring up such sensitive topics in the name of entertainment. More so,...

Reportedly the biggest-budgeted and most widely released Bollywood production ever, “Thugs of Hindostan” is an exuberantly excessive masala of swashbuckling heroics, broader-than-broad comedy, propulsively choreographed action, and raucously caffeinated song-and-dance sequences. Writer-director Vijay Krishna Acharya, a creative force behind the popular “Dhoom” movies, has borrowed freely from Disney’s “Pirates of the Caribbean,” even to the point of having Indian superstar Aamir Khan often come across as a smudged carbon of Johnny Depp’s Jack Sparrow while playing a similarly unreliable rogue. But for all its recycled elements and predictable narrative stratagems, this diverting Diwali-timed extravaganza stands on its own merits as a lightly satisfying popcorn epic — provided, of course, you have a taste for such over-the-top amusement.

Thugs Of Hindostan
Starring Amitabh Bachchan, Aamir Khan, Fatima Sana Sheikh, Katrina Kaif
Directed by Vijay Krishna Acharya
Not done! You can’t take two of Bollywood’s superstars together for the first time and then make a film that confounds your senses, boggles your mind and tries your patience.
Thugs Of Hindostan does all of this, and more. It is guilty of many crimes, not the least of them being the rather strange attempt to pass off the corny as the epic, and the dishevelled as the spectacular. The plot, we are told, is based on an ancient novel by Philip Meadows Taylor which no one seems to have read.
The film, if you ask me, also deserves much the same treatment. It is an overblown, undercooked piece of abomination masquerading as majestic when it is nothing of the sort. Speckled on top and hollow and dull inside this...

Aamir Khan’s character in Yrf’s Diwali entertainer Thugs of Hindostan has become a huge talking point among audience even before the release of the film. He plays the character of Firangi – a flamboyant, deceptive, slippery, smooth-talking thug who cannot and should never be trusted. Aamir and the other thugs of the film speak about the notoriously charming Firangi.
Aamir says, “When I heard the script for the first time, I loved the character of Firangi. He’s a strange guy because he is not a very reliable person at all. He is someone who is constantly lying and you don’t know when he is telling the truth. Fortunately, I don’t know anyone like Firangi in real life!”
Fatima adds, “Ekdum lucha hai, kamina hai, matlabi hai. In real life agar mein kissi Firangi ko jaanti, toh uss se das foot door rahoongi!”
Amitabh Bachchan says, “He has a dual personality,...

When we first got a glimpse of Katrina Kaif’s character in Thugs of Hindostan we knew it was going to be a very interesting to see Katrina in this role. The film promises to present Katrina in her hottest desi avatar to date as she plays the role of an outrageously beautiful performer named Suraiyya. She is the most gorgeous girl in British India who makes every man go weak in their knees.
Now we have learned that in the new song titled Suraiyya, Aamir Khan’s Firangi is completely besotted by Katrina Kaif’s scorching beauty and hot moves.
Prabhudheva, who always sets a benchmark in innovative choreography, has worked tirelessly to design this song that combines old Indian dance forms with intricate contemporary moves. The song will see Aamir, dressed as a British captain, having the guts to woo Katrina in front of a room filled with British officers.
