1962: The War in the Hills (2021– )

Not effective but one time watch

[6/10 · 26 February 2021]

The strongest side of this series is the script. In this series based on the true incident, on one hand, the glimpse of the private life of the soldiers is shown.

The human side is shown. At the same time, India-China has shown fierce war on the other side. Director Mahesh Manjrekar and writer Charudatta Aacharya have been successful in maintaining interest by connecting the episode.

The screenplay of Charudatta Acharya is mainly divided into India-China skirmishes, political compulsions, and the personal life of the soldiers.

The narration uses the narration of Major Suraj Singh's wife Shagun Singh (Mahi Gill), who tells her Millennial grandchildren and grandchildren about the story of the war and the turmoil in the personal life of C-Company jawans Is telling about.

The early episodes of 1962 The War In The Hills have a slow edge and pace, but the last four episodes pick up the rhythm and the series starts engaging.

Had the series been made in fewer episodes, the result would have been more impressive, as the personal life events of the jawans are very filmy and taut. They slow down the pace of 1962 The War In The Hills series.

Starcast and language make the series a bit weak. If you like war drama 1962- The War in the Hills will not disappoint you.

Nail Polish (I) (2021)

Must watch psychological drama

[6/10 · 1 January 2021]

ZEE5 Nail Polish is a psychological drama, which changes color in the court. Despite all the scientific evidence against Veer Singh, Jai Singh argues: Unless science is accurate, it is not science, its astrology, where planets can be taken to get desired results.

This story revolves so fast at its mid-point that many vortices are formed. In the mind of the viewer, however, they are born. Veer Singh's character becomes a challenge for the court and the viewer as to what opinion to form about him. The three judges, lawyers, and spectators have to think here.

The film 'Nail Polish' is a film made only for adults, but here this information is only for brainstorming.

The film runs at a slow pace and completes its talk in about two hours and five minutes. From time to time in ZEE5 Nail Polish, new colors, new hues emerge and the thrill remains.

The film leaves the answers to the questions to the audience. The film exposes the weaknesses of the law but it is not a melodrama like the 'blind law'.

This is a story based on a solid basis, to understand it, you just have to keep your mind alert.

Sandwiched Forever (2020– )

Must watch Indian Sitcom

[8/10 · 27 December 2020]

Sandwiched Forever is a sitcom. In the Sandwiched Forever web series, all the small incidents, from mother-in-law's problems, keep the atmosphere sour-sweet-puffy.

At the same time, in this, their friends and their children are faces to face in different flats. The equations of their relationships, love, and friendship with each other, misunderstandings-happiness, rage-coaxing, and good-bad situations give rise to petty events.

Their confusion and difficulties cause the audience to laugh. Here in the center are Samar and Naina, sandwiches made between their parents. Nearly every story revolves around what is happening in their home or life.

In the series edit, the windows of the same floor flats are used repeatedly for the transition, the rest of this serial does not get stuck anywhere. Except that it gets slowed down somewhere.

Writers have given different strengths and flaws to each character.

Wonder Woman 1984 (2020)

not like 1st one but action scenes are amazing

[6/10 · 26 December 2020]

I will not tell you anything about the story otherwise your adventures will end in the film. The 1 best thing in the film is that Villon is also told about his personal life, meaning his story is also shown well.

The story of the film is completely different from its previous films. In which this time Wonder Woman will be seen saving the world.

Barbara Minerva (Kristen Wiig) arrives on screen with Gal Gadot. A different spell envelopes the screen. In the film, she tries to be like him. After which the real story of the film begins. There are many big twists and turns in the story in an attempt to be like that woman. Which keeps you in your chair.

The story of Patty Jenkins and Geoff Johns is impressive and more important, it is not associated with any other films in the DC Universe.

DC films tend to be dark, but are written as purely commercial entertainment. Dialogues are simple and sharp as needed. In Maxwell's scenes, the one-liners extend far apart but according to the character's personality.

This is not about Diana trying to save Maxwell to destroy the world; Barbara's track also plays an important role and increases stress levels. The climax, although preached, makes an impact. The mid-credit scene is quite surprising.

AK vs AK (2020)

Craziest Experience to Watch

[7/10 · 25 December 2020]

The film 'AK Vs AK' is a moving film within the film. The characters are wearing their dresses. This trend of making a documentary of fake type is a new use of cinema.

In the film, Anil Kapoor's brother Boney Kapoor, son Harshvardhan, daughter Sonam, his staff are all from the real world, just the work he is doing in a story. The story begins with a dialogue program where Anurag gets angry and throws water on Anil Kapoor's face. The film fraternity boycotting him after this incident.

To save his career, Anurag goes out to make a film in which he kidnaps Sonam, and Anil Kapoor has time to save him. And, during all this, the camera is not to be turned off.

The special thing about this film is that like typical Bollywood films, there is no extra song, no romantic angle. All characters are real.

The film's biggest drawback is its promises. The film promises to be a reality-closer film but does not play it. The film story is so weak that you cannot even try to make a film woven into the fabric of reality.

Overall, AK Vs AK is a good and new experiment that has been tried to tie in the film. The dialogues of the film catch your attention.

Criminal Justice: Behind Closed Doors (2020– )

Only for Pankaj Tripathi

[7/10 · 24 December 2020]

Apoorva, who outlined the pain and consternation of the gay community through 'Aligarh', has worked through this web series to bring an issue related to women from behind closed doors to the front, which is often not considered an issue.

'Criminal Justice-Behind Closed Doors' furthers Apoorva's mission of portraying human sensibilities as being a court drama.

The story of 'Criminal Justice Season 2' is straightforward and predictable. The writer has not even tried to confuse it with the screenplay.

The focus thriller has been more of an issue than coherent, with short twists and turns. The essence of the entire series, which hinges on it, is also known to the viewer in the opening scenes. However, it is accurately revealed in the last episode.

However, the story of this series seems to be slow in some places, especially the prison scenes are repeated at times.

The web series 'Criminal Justice-Behind Closed Doors' may have been described as a courtroom drama, but you will be disappointed if you sit around expecting a suspense thriller to watch it. Watch it calmly.

Pankaj Tripathi, Anupriya Goenka, and Mita Vashistha are associated with the first season of Criminal Justice, have also looked strong in this season.

There is a truth, understanding, and compassion in the character of advocate Madhav Mishra, played by Pankaj Tripathi with all sincerity.

At the same time, Anupriya Goenka has also done full justice to her character. On her part, the director has given many important dialogues, which she has been successful in bringing out effectively.

Also, artists like Jishu Sengupta, Ashish Vidyarthi, Adrija Sinha, Pankaj Saraswat, Ayaz Khan, Kalyani Mule, Ajit Singh Palawat, Khushbu Atre have fully supported the story.

It would not be wrong to say that the characters of 'Criminal Justice' are a strong side of this series.

The story revolves primarily around Anu Chandra, played by Kirti Kulhari. The actress has already won her acting in films and series like Pink, Mission Mangal, Uri, Four More Shots Please.

In 'Criminal Justice', she also appears to be dissolved in her character. In short dialogues, Kirti continues to connect with the audience with her gestures.

Black Widows (2020– )

Little bit boring but quite intresting

[6/10 · 19 December 2020]

Black Widows' web series opens its layers. Mystery and adventure are not the main focus of the story. Here the characters of the story laugh at themselves. They curse themselves and the audience neither sympathizes nor hates them. This is a real dark comedy.

The hard work of ZEE5's creative team is evident in the indigenous adaptation of this foreign series. The lanes, turns and intersections through which the story has been started at a very enthralling location are the real joy of the story.

This story of 12 episodes of about half an hour, where it stops, tells that its second season must also be made.

More characters continue to come in the story one by one and continue to expand the story.

Mona Singh is quite junky as Veera. She plays the role of a wife who is scared after the death of her husband but also works wisely with her. Swastika Mukherjee as Lalit's wife is also strongly influenced by her performance.

There is more stagnation in her acting. Shamita Shetty is the wife of Nilesh. Her character in the form of poetry is slightly different from the rest.

We all know that Sharad Kelkar always impresses with his performance. His role as Jatin in the ZEE5 Black Widows web series is quite impressive. His facial expression and dialogue delivery have always been impressive.

Rayama Sen's elusive character gives a balanced flow to the series' story. By the way, Parambrata Chattopadhyay is also no less in terms of influencing. As far as Shruti Vyas is concerned, she is also looking very good as a Lady Inspector. Aamir Ali and Nikhil Bambari also influence.

Unpaused (2020)

A Wonderful Anthology to watch

[7/10 · 19 December 2020]

In its five-part anthology, Unposed mixes all the news from lockdown-related topics of isolation, loneliness, resilience, which have made headlines with average results in this terrible virus-ridden year. Each story is complementary to the other, and the way they are laid out is simple.

The film starts at a high point with glitches and ends better with Chand Mubarak. I liked the last two the most.

Coming into Gulshan Devaiah's film is his routine, picks yet another character and plays it so well that we can't even imagine touching anyone else. Ishwaq Singh's performance is a bonus.

Lilette Dubey never manages to spark happiness again with her appearance as a charmer. Full points for Rinku Rajguru to stand out not only among Lillet's aura but also for her tremendous talent. Abhishek Banerjee has always been an underrated gem for me in many films.

Ratna Pathak Shah plays the lone Maya Sarabhai in the film. My greatest path among this talented group of people is to become Shardul Bhardwaj. Acting opposite Ratna Pathak Shah is difficult and hopefully, you will notice. Shardul makes the most of the limited he gets.

Raj and DK take a modern route to tell their version of the story and love a lot about their world. Nikhil Advani is deep and basic to his story.

Tannishtha Chatterjee's Rat-A-Tat is dialogue-heavy, and its writing really helps keep the intrigue alive. Avinash Arun Bong is a small sub-plot from Bong-Jun-Ho's 'Parasite'. Nitya Mehra lets her characters do major lift-ups while keeping everything original. The background score is equally good in every story.

Beautifully lost with unprecedented performance, the anthology deserves more as a whole package.

Torbaaz (2020)

Waste of Time

[12 December 2020]

In a country where children have seen more terrorism than books and bats, promoting cricket is an impossible task. Netflix Torbaaz movie is a story of hope. Hope .. of a happy life, of humanity, of fulfilling dreams, of a better tomorrow. The theme of this film revolves around terrorist activities happening in Afghanistan.

Torbaaz film is a heart touching story that shows the mood of people battling fanatics and children living in refugee camps.

How do children brainwash by terrorists, what effect does it have on them and their family. All of this is shown in the film. Girish Malik, who wrote the script, is quite weak and fails to hold up for two hours.

The director was also not impressed with this sensitive story. Length is also a big reason for this. The initial one hour of filming only takes the story.

The story moves extremely slowly. At the same time, the story picks up in the second half, but in the Climax, it is scattered like a card.

The theme of the film and the thinking behind it is good .. positive. Bringing together fascism and cricket is also interesting. But coming to the screen, the soul of the film is no longer there.

Sanjay Dutt is cast in the role of Naseer Khan. He has a good rapport with the kids .. especially in the emotional scenes. However, there was a shortage of a cricket coach. Also, when Sanjay Dutt is in the film, some action scenes are also expected, but there is a disappointment here.

Nargis Fakhri looks like a bag in a small roll. The talent of Rahul Dev in the character of terrorist Abdul Qazar has also been completely lost by the director.

Well, the strongest side of the film is the children .. makes 'Torbaaz' worth watching for two hours .. especially Eshan Javed Malik, Rehan Sheikh, and Rudra Soni.

Overall, Torbaaz can be omitted because it does not deliver the intense massage with the intensity it deserves. It is a cumbersome film made on a good subject, so giving it two hours would be a waste of time.

Bhaag Beanie Bhaag (2020– )

Totally Boring

[3/10 · 5 December 2020]

Bhaag Beanie Bhaag is a series of six episodes of about half an hour. In the beginning, it moves slowly. It continues to wander along with the wanderings of Beanie's life but eventually returns to the track.

When writers and directors start this series, it seems that they are under the tremendous influence of English comedy films and sitcoms.

This series is the story of a stand up comedian but if there is anything less in it then it is laughter. Although through many shows, Beanie's life has been shown to be moving forward, but you will never want to see her show after listening to her jokes.

This may be the story of a girl fulfilling her dreams, but I wish someone could tell that girl that she needs the ability to fulfill her dreams.

It is not a matter of everyone to do comedy and it is clear from the dialogues written for Beanie.

It is a very painful experience for the story to not be funny and to constantly watch the stand-up comedians on stage without jokes.

The casting of this series is perfect. The only problem is in the lead of the series. To support the rest of the story, Dolly Singh as a friend of the star, Varun Thakur as a fiancé, Mona Ambegaonkar as a parent, and Girish Karnad are all well placed in their roles.

Viewers will love watching Varun Thakur in a serious role apart from comedy. On the other hand, Ravi Patel, a character of Confusion who is more than a friend of Swara's sudden friend, also seems to be trying well.

As part of Mona Ambegaonkar and Girish Karnad, being the parents of Beanie , they have played as smoothly as they have come.

Dolly Singh is the only star of this series. You will be able to connect to them whenever they are on the screen.

Naxalbari (2020)

Watch for Aamir Ali

[7/10 · 29 November 2020]

The conflict between Naxalites, industrialists and the government is very old. All three have their own agenda, which they try to fulfill. In between all this, political parties also find their point in it.

ZEE5 Naxalbari web series is one such story revolving around Naxalism, industry and politics, which is made under the direction of Partho Mitra. This web series of nine episodes will be shown on ZEE5 Original.

The seat thriller of ZEE5 tells the story of the conflict between the Naxalites and the government. The moments depicted in it will increase your heartbeat.

Naxalbari web series is a great web series to watch, with great action and sharp social commentary. A film or web series, its story becomes funny when there is suspense in it.

The story of Naxalbari is not as easy as it seems. Naxalbari captivates you from the very first episode. The subsequent nine episodes take you on a fantastic adventure.

However, a lot of expectations are attached to it and hopefully it will not disappoint. Of course, no such show has been shown on screen yet.

Ludo (2020)

Entertaining movie to watch

[8/10 · 13 November 2020]

Just as there are red, green, blue, and yellow pieces in the game of Ludo, the events that take place in the life of the four main characters in the Ludo film represent these four colors, whose every move determines the dice of luck.

These four characters are completely different from each other, but playing the game of life, luck brings them to the same 'house' (floor) again and again. Like the game of Ludo, there are such stops where they bite each other.

A leaked sex tape, from a suitcase full of money to two painful murders; Four absolutely random stories collide with each other because of luck, coincidence, and a cynical criminal. Life has been compared to chessboard several times, but these four stories derived from the four colors of Ludo are interesting.

All four stories are quite interesting. But the factor that pulls the film back is its length. This two and a half-hour film is boiled on several occasions.

The different environments of the four stories and their characters are depicted in a great way. Editing done by Ajay Sharma could have cut a few more minutes. This game of Ludo is two and a half hours long. A tight screenplay could have proved even more effective. The dialogues written by Samrat Chakraborty are excellent in some scenes, while in some scenes listen and average.

Laxmii (2020)

very disappointing film

[1/10 · 10 November 2020]

Laxmii is a horror comedy but the film has neither horror nor comedy. Scary tries to scare the audience by showing faces and director Raghava Lawrence fails here. Like a ghost licking a drop of blood. But the way to scare the genre was abandoned by the films in the 90s.

'Laxmii' also underlines sensitive issues such as narrowness of thinking about transgenders and their spontaneous acceptance in society.

However, between these issues and messages, the story of the film definitely staggers and at times there is a clear contradiction in its original spirit.

The film picks up pace in the second half where Akshay Kumar finally appears in the character of Lakshmi. But Akshay will once again be seen disappointing you in the role of Lakshmi.

Your disappointment will increase when the film will have the entry of the real Lakshmi as she is completely different from Akshay Kumar.

The action of the film seems childish even in Climax. Neither does the film scare nor bring sympathy for Laxmi in your mind.

Laxmii is completely Akshay Kumar's film. Akshay with his strong performance and energy has helped cover all the shortcomings of the film. In Akshay's transformation scenes as Lakshmi, Akshay's expressions are amazing. His spontaneity in these scenes makes him effective. Kiara Advani is frozen in her character. Kiara has been balanced in emotion.

The rest of the actors of the film have performed their respective responsibilities according to the expectations of the story.

However, the track with geomorphic has been used in improvisation only. The writers also did not pay much attention to that.

Sharad Kelkar has done well in the role of the real Lakshmi. His role is small but important. He really deserves applause and praise for this role.

If you want to see this film, then watch it for Sharad Kelkar. But for that, you will have to wait a long time and by then maybe your sobriety will answer. So if you see Laxmii, then watch this film keeping your mood in mind.

Taish (2020)

For Harshvardhan Rane's Performance

[8/10 · 30 October 2020]

Taish is primarily a story of two very angry characters, played by Pulkit Samrat and Harshvardhan Rane. The story of this series is scattered in six episodes of about half-an-hour, due to the fact that both these characters are in the air and the result of their collision.

It is being called 'film and series' on the film's promotional material. Some things remain unclear in Taish's story. Many reasons have also not been revealed.

Some such points do not digest and weaken the swim. Anjali Nair, Karthik R Iyer, and Nicola Luis Taylor have done extensive experiments with screenplays with Bejoy Nambiar.

He repeatedly took scenes in the past to explain the reason for what is happening in the present. Such experiments are often seen in web series to create suspense and thrills, but in the case of Taish, the use of the series is slightly affected.

The viewer will have to sit with little attention to connect the strings of the story. Harshvir Oberoi's cinematography also gives the film a height.

The outdoor locations are filmed extremely beautifully. At the same time, Priyank brings tension in Prem Kumar's editing series.

The 6 episode 'ZEE5 Taish Movie' tells a story of about 3 hours, which does not give viewers a chance to get bored.

The strong side of the series is its casting. Jim Sarbh, Pulkit Samrat, Harshvardhan Rane, and Sanjida Sheikh have been effective in their roles.

However, female characters could be improved a bit more. Kriti Kharbanda has not been given much opportunity by the director on screen.

The three main male actors of Taish, Jim Sarbh, Pulkit Samrat, and Harshvardhan Rane have played their roles effectively.

Their scenes show an emotional depth. Be it scenes of Harshvardhan and Sanjida or scenes between Pulkit and Jim Sarbh.

Bejoy, who has made 'Wazir' with Amitabh Bachchan and Farhan Akhtar, also made 'Karvaan' with Irrfan Khan and Dulquer Salmaan in between. Apart from this, Bejoy has also made acclaimed thrillers like 'Shaitan'.

Bejoy's direction has an emotional depth and style, but sometimes the lack of dispatch makes even the best scenes seem ineffective. It feels like this somewhere in Taish.

The story of this series or film is scattered over six episodes of about half an hour. In Hindi Cinema, there are many stories of dying for family and relationships but Taish Movie's treatment sets apart from other films.

A Suitable Boy (2020)

it's not engaging

[5/10 · 28 October 2020]

The screenwriter of the serie- Andrew Davis, who has tried to cover 1359 pages of Vikram Seth's 1993 novel A Suitable Boy in 8 episodes for which he deserves congratulations.

Later, Mira Nair divided these eight episodes into six parts, giving them more strength. The series is written in great detail and presents every possible picture of 1950s India.

Interestingly, despite not leaving any aspect, the series seems to be threaded and threaded together. The dialogues are simple-easy and they also have a comic put.

It is difficult to present such a novel as a tight story. That too is impossible in only six episodes. Especially when the series has many stories going on other than the main story.

And this is where Mira Nair wins your heart. The series is a story of finding a suitable groom for Lata, but walking with four families. And these four families never disappear from the script.

Sometimes you feel restless because some characters get incomplete touches and there is no attempt to fulfill them.

Talking about the technical side of the series, first of all it is important to keep in mind that this series is made in English and it is dubbed in Hindi. And this dubbing is disappointing.

The series is full of the cast. And everyone tries to do their job well. But here comes trouble. Why not everyone's share, in 6 hours, is as much as the audience expects.

Even the main character Ishaan Khattar sees you coming into your form after a three-hour series.

Tanya Manaktala as Lata on the other hand tries her best to hold you tightly. Tanya Maniktala is the discovery of A Suitable Boy web series.

If we talk about the remaining supporting actors in the film, Ram Kapoor is effective as a politician, then Vinay Pathak is remembered even in the small character of the minister.

Rasika Duggal will be seen as Lata's sister throughout the series, but her part has not been impressive.

On the other hand, the extramarital affair and sex scenes of Shahana Goswami and Randeep Hooda seem to carry the story somewhere but are not able to take it.

Vijay Verma as Rashid and Ranveer Shorey as heir are played with full vigor.

Namit Das leaves a mark as a candidate for Lata's future husband.

Mira Nair has tried to tie BBC A Suitable Boy web series tightly and she has also succeeded in it. And she deserves congratulations for this successful attempt.

Meera Nair has made the scenes come true with full skill and imagination.

The series could have focused on choosing a boy only for a girl, but he did it very well in the different money classes that emerged in the country after Partition, Hindu-Muslim riots, new laws, and society flourished. In the rebellion and using it all, we have shielded the best in politics.

Despite A Suitable Boy shortcomings, this series serves you as much as you promise. This series does not give you any false promise from its very first scene. And Netflix A Suitable Boys web series does as much as she does.

Comedy Couple (2020)

One time watch film

[6/10 · 22 October 2020]

This film full of comedy will entertain you completely. The director has brought the relationships of metropolitan life to the screen on the pretext of Deep and Zoya's story.

Media and conservative ideology have also been attacked fiercely in the film. Taking up the theme of 'Go Mutra', the director in the film has also tried to satirize about 'freedom of expression'.

In the 21st century, everyone claims to be modern, but when it comes to living in a live-in relationship of a boy and a girl, the high society and people who consider themselves very modern, also show their true colors. Huh. This is the focus of the entire story of this film.

ZEE5's one-hour 55-minute comedy Couple is basically a film to attract the youth of the metros who find moments of laughter in the face of problems and tensions.

Bikas Ranjan Mishra, Raghav Raj Kakkar, Kashyap Kapoor and Gaurav Sharma write and devlope the story of ZEE5 film Comedy Couple.

Constant hiccups arise in this relationship and stability does not come easily. The comedy couple states that the two were raised in a completely different way. W

hile Zoya is a self-sufficient girl made of a single mother (Pooja Bedi), Deep is a young man from a traditional Hindu family, who cannot rebel and adjust herself to the rites of childhood.

The good part of the story is that in this, along with the couple, every effort has been made to bring out the changing political-social environment of the country. The film could have been tightened a bit.

There are no chances of laughing out loud in the film, but Saqib and Shweta have handled the opportunities of stand-up comedy.

A chemistry between Saqib and Shweta is fantastic. In particular, Shweta has flourished in the film beautifully and effectively.

She is doing a consistently good job in the web world and this role of Zoya is noticeable.

Pooja Bedi has returned to the entertainment world after nine years.

Director Nachiket Samant has made Marathi films before this. This is his first Hindi film. Certainly, he retained the Metro feel of the story from beginning to end.

He has given the two main characters of his film 'Comedy Couple' their separate zones. For this reason, the entire cast of the film 'Comedy Couple' is actually on its director Nachiket Samanta.

ZEE5 film Comedy Couple's story keeps you feeling from beginning to end. The film could have been tightened a bit but this film will tickle the minds of the metro youth.

Scam 1992: The Harshad Mehta Story (2020)

It's a masterpiece to experiance

[9/10 · 10 October 2020]

The web series tells that Harshad's journey starts like an ordinary youth, whose father's Clothes business collapses.

The lower-middle-class family gets caught in financial difficulties. Harshad Dreams are big right now he worked from clergy to support the family to sell goods on the streets.

He turns to the stock market and jumps at the speed of a cheetah. But a setback brings him and the family back on the road.

Director Hansal Mehta and his authors, Sumit Purohit, Vaibhav Vishal, and Karan Vyas, had done considerable research into the script, and this reflects well in the series.

Being a stock-market virgin, a few words fall down every now and then, bouncing on my head. But the author has kept it as simple as possible, clarifying the story with some excellent dialogues.

Hansal Mehta tries his best to keep the story as possible, even if we know the end. By the end, the story starts from economic to political but the detailing is quite spectacular!

The most talented symbol in the picture is Pratik Gandhi. A popular Gujarati actor, in Scam 1998, he is honored to be at the center of the spotlight, seeing a scintillating performance.

As Harshad Mehta, actor Prateik Gandhi remains rigid in character. There is no attempt to make the scamster heroic. Nor does the performance point fingers at the character's misdeeds.

Among the supporting cast, Shreya Dhanvantari has more opportunity to shine in the second part of the series, and she performs well in those parts.

Veteran Satish Kaushik leaves a mark, as foul-mouth stockbroker Manu Manek. The rest of the cast, some of the popular Gujarati artists, are very reliable and give excellent performances.

Whatever Hansal Mehta has done to open Harshad Mehta's saga reflects any commendable aura, but still retaining the original dignity of a saga that saw the Indian middle class money.

Hansal Mehta tries his best to keep the story as possible, even if we know the end.

Hansal Mehta's clever direction, Gandhi's brilliant performance and quotable quotes make this Harshad Mehta story adequate.

Bad Boy Billionaires: India (2020– )

An amusing tale deprived of revelation

[8/10 · 6 October 2020]

Netflix Bad Boy Billionaires: India is a British documentary, in which the lifestyle, working style, and economic crimes of these three are drawn.

The documentary, released on Monday on the OTT platform Netflix, explains in detail how all three have been carrying out major economic scandals in the two-and-a-half decades of the country under the nose of power and order.

Bad Boy Billionaires: India masks the faces of Vijay Mallya (director: Dalian Mohan Gray), Nirav Modi (Johanna Hamilton), and Subrata Roy Sahara (Nick Reed) respectively in three episodes ranging from 50 minutes to an hour.

Those who help them inside the system are also seen here. There is no focus on them.

However, some people are also here, defending these economic criminals who looted the taxpayers and the poor of the country.

Total accumulated in all three stories, you find that two big criminals are absconding and small punishment in one case.

In the case of the documentary Mallya and Nirav Modi, one thing also underlines that corruption in Indian banks would not have happened if international banks in the UK, US and Switzerland did not help them. All three stories are woven with tightness and must be seen.

You must have heard the age-old line of Indian Charvak philosophy, Yavajjiveed Sukhman Jivet, minus Kritva Ghritam Pibet.

That is, as long as you live, live happily, even if you have to drink ghee by borrowing for it. These stories are of such people who continued to live their lives with debt and free money.

They do not mind that people are dying because of this. Surprisingly, the film was made by foreigners on the adventures of these people.

No Indian has. It is probably because somewhere we know that these are the only three who were caught. Those who are not yet on the radar have probably dug large pits from them.

Are we ready for more such films?

Serious Men (2020)

It's Engaging and Sensational

[8/10 · 2 October 2020]

It is true that the parents do not want their children to see that lack, suffer the misery they themselves bear, but it is not good for the children to bear the burden of their happiness and sorrows and ambitions.

Director Sudhir Mishra's film Serious Man brings these issues to the fore.

The interiors of this story are beautiful. The writer-director has created an exit strategy for Ayyan and Adi.

But consider that this is not the end of the fight of the fighters for their rights because the status has no connection to the IQ and the talent also has no color (black or blonde).

Some of the film's dialogues are quite effective. At the same time, some scenes between Nawazuddin and Akshat touch the heart.

The film starts off with satire and then becomes poignant and then poignant.

The film based on the book slows down considerably in many parts. The main characters have been given a lot of time to set up, which makes it a bit bored and impacts the storyline.

Films on social bias and discrimination have been made for years, but 'Serial Men' makes its characters different.

As a father, Nawazuddin Siddiqui appears to be the best, while the strong side of the film has emerged as Akshat Das in the role of his son.

He walks shoulder to shoulder with Nawazuddin in every scene.

Nasser is perfect in his character.

But, the director has given very little space to a good actress like Shweta Basu Prasad.

Apart from caste discrimination, 'Serious Men' made under the direction of Sudhir Mishra touches on topics like inequality, lack, corruption, politics. Director Sudhir Mishra has tried to put it in an easy way.

The message of Netflix Serious Men is very important for making a serious and social taunt, but it is served that way easily.

Enola Holmes (2020)

Comfortable movie with so many good things to watch

[8/10 · 26 September 2020]

Netflix film "Enola Holmes" is about a young woman in search of self, but the film takes a deeper investigation into the power, family bonds and risks of changing a world.

The film is a murder mystery, so every scene of it is full of thrills. In every aspect of the story, you are forced to think about what is going to happen in the coming scene.

The film offers a tricky insight into her curious mind without losing her charm, whether it is her unwavering faith in her mother, her undying love for Sherlock, the ability to see life as an endless series of puzzles and not her identity in the process To lose

The teenage romance between the young prince and the title hero is perhaps the film's most heart-touching dimension; It is delicate, soft and important.

The film balances various genre-specific elements with enough flourish, be it thrill, action, romance, suspense or thrill.

Screenwriter Jack Thorne doesn't mess too much with the editing patterns of modern Sherlock Holmes. He cleverly bridges the flashback sequences, so that you can also simplify the events around you.

Millie Bobby Brown is an excellent choice to play the title character and never let the sadness of this part diminish his mental strength.

Apart from 'Stranger Things', it is fantastic to see her in a good character. Her presence makes the film more exciting.

Sam Claflin's Mycroft is a lot more poignant than seen on the BBC's version. Unfortunately, Henry's opportunity to focus on Sherlock assumes that his character must be found in the narrative.

Sherlock went unnoticed as Henry's costumes, body language to mold himself.

Luis Partridge is beloved as the handsome, young prince who shares on-screen chemistry with Brown with a terrifying spirit.

Helena Bonham Carter as Eudora Holmes has a limited presence, but the way she uses her presence minimally and so effectively.

I believe Harry Bradbeer had a solid reason to keep this film for only 120 minutes. It is a conscious decision to bring non-Sherlock fans to their territory.

Although the film still seems a little slow, but Harry Bradbeer has handled it well.

Enola Holmes is an emotional mother-daughter story, but it is full of action, comedy, drama and lots of thrills.

Crackdown (2020– )

Stay away from this horrifying series

[2/10 · 24 September 2020]

When Makers or OTT platforms rely on the current spices of the market more than the content, then they get eaten.

Voot Select Crackdown web series is also a story about the entertainment market's spices, in which nothing special was taken care of. Something new that attracts the audience.

There is a lot of lack of freshness in the story, tightness in the screenplay, and excitement in the dialogues. This thriller which comes on the Voot Select puts a temper of patriotism but is slow and boring in many places.

Especially the first four episodes. In which it is clear that the writer-director is finding it difficult to find the way forward.

By the end of the fourth episode, when he sees light far away in the dark tunnel, then somehow he is overcome by confusion.

Meanwhile, the balance and thrill of the story again and again upset. Whereas later a lot of things have been included in a hurry here.

This is a long boring drama of eight episodes.

The casting of 'Crackdown web series' is its weakest link, neither Saqib Salim nor Shriya Pilgaonkar seems comfortable in their roles.

Iqbal Khan's character seems to be implicated in the story only because someone wants a villain here, or how someone will become a hero.

Rajesh Telang is definitely relaxed whenever he comes on screen.

The focus of the writer-director is on Saqib Saleem and Shriya Pilgaonkar rather than the whole story. As a result, the characters of Iqbal Khan, Velusha D'Souza, Rajesh Tailang, Ankur Bhatia have kept wandering. It seems that these people take frequent entries to give a break to the story of Shakib-Shriya.

In particular, the lack of work on the treks and characters of Iqbal-Velusha is a problem. The difficulty of Crackdown web series is that it was not written correctly. One, it comes on track late and second its balance continuously deteriorates.

More than the terrorists and ISI conspiracies, the writer-director's attention was focused on showing the fights between the RAW people.

Giving real treatment to Apoorva Lakhia story, putting an angle of Mary's face in it, makes the web series a film.

Should you watch it or not? Crackdown is a staple material that is partially dominant and partially predictable.

Wakaalat from Home (2020– )

A series with Good concept

[7/10 · 11 September 2020]

The most special concept is. Earlier videos and series on YouTube have been shot at home. Much has been seen during the lockdown as well.

But the new series of Amazon Prime Video has served this concept in a completely different way. Nowhere do you think it was shot at home.

Anubhav Pal's writing is also excellent. It is also special that in the series there is no opportunity to do more than writing.

It is very difficult to produce situational comedy in front of the camera without moving. The comedy itself is quite a difficult genre.

His writing brings a lot of standup feeling, which also laughs according to jokes' timing and punch.

Wakaalat from Home web series is shortened. An episode in a series of 10 episodes is 15 minutes. In this case it does not put a load on you.

Working on the new concept in lockdown is a big thing in itself. However, you will see some drawbacks after this.

It also has the merit of actors, who have technically given such a good performance. Nidhi Singh (Radhika) and Sumit Vyas (Shujin) have previously appeared together in permanent roommates.

There is a flow in the acting of both. Sometimes you may find Nidhi Singh's acting mildly over.

Kubra Sait (Rajni) is back with absolutely fresh acting. Kubra's Flow breaks in a few episodes in between.

But the most noticed among all this is Gopal Dutt in the character of Lobo Tripathi. He has looked absolutely natural.

Rohan's direction is also correct. Have managed to use small things. Wakaalat From Home web series is the great effort of Anubhav Pal and Rohan Sippy.

Wakaalat from Home series is a good comedy web series. The early episodes are going to make you laugh a lot. There will be a slight lockdown in the middle. But in the end, the laughter is unlocked once again

C U Soon (2020)

Masterpiece movie to watch

[7/10 · 2 September 2020]

The Malayalam film industry has a different style in choosing the backdrop as opposed to the C U Soon analysis routine. In Prime Video C U Soon movie, screenplay combines technology with a social problem in Kerala.

Topics of the current generation, such as collecting information using web chat apps like Facebook, Google Hangout and Skype, are nicely displayed on the screen.

The highlight of the film is the directing of the film through chatting between mobiles and computers.

Adding suspense, mystery, and thriller to the story of why the two lovers fell in jail under unforeseen circumstances, the film takes the story to another level.

The way the story is written, the way it is told in a way that is easily understood by today's youth is great.

Also impressive is the way the suspense continues in the story to the end. The emotions in the characters are new as shown on the screen.

Fahad Fazil, who is closer to the audience with films like Super Deluxe and Trance, once again put on an amazing performance.

The emotionally charged acting through his eyes in the climax further impresses the fans.

Roshan, who has gained fans with his negative shade in the Malayalam film Kapela, has impressed by playing a sympathetic role this time. Feel Good gets emotional with his actions not only in the scenes but also at crucial times.

Darshana Rajendran Performance It has to be said that Iron Thirai fame Darshana Rajendran is alive in the role of Anu Sebastian.

It must be said that it has done full justice to the role of telling the problem faced by Kerala young women.

Feeling we have 'Run out of gas' emotionally with the help of a character who has less dialogue and more scope for emotions.

Director Mahesh Narayan's talent is captivated by the heart-wrenching story of how young men and women get into trouble with the lure of taking jobs.

The film is designed to add technology to a social problem and give a new feel to the audience.

The film manages to impress not only the youth but also the family audience with no place for pornography.

It very beautifully makes us aware of the fact that how technology has taken over our lives and some of us are already suffering from it. You should watch this film with English Subtitles.

Aashram (2020–2024)

try to make realistic

[7/10 · 30 August 2020]

You will find the web series story familiar. Its story has been kept largely realistic. The exploitation of sevadars, the practice of intoxication in the ashram, Baba's atrocities on women, land grabbing of people, and more.

This is something you have recently heard on TV and read in newspapers. However, the suspense has been kept alive.

The first episode of the ashram itself lays the foundation of the story and includes politics, blind faith, business of hypocritical babas, caste system everything.

With each episode the story seems to promote a new problem of society. But in each episode, both parallel plots appear to grow together.

On one side is the devotion business of Baba and on the other side, a police officer solves the skeletal case. It is obvious that the skeleton is closely linked to the ashram.

The main plot of the series is quite interesting. Hindi entertainment has not seen so much detail on blind devotees in Dhongi Baba and Baba Business.

How 44 lakh devotees of a Baba become the vote bank of politics, this is also probably seen by the audience for the first time.

So MX Player Aashram web series tries its best to tie the audience to its opening.

Do not think that after reading everything, everything is healed in 'Aashram'. An attempt has been made to force the story.

At the same time, the second thing is that this story has been told so many times before on TV that you skip somewhere and move forward. Will Baba be caught, this is where Factor keeps the web series.

Talking about Bobby Deol, he has not performed very well. However, he makes Dhibi Baba feel full.

Except Bobby Deol, all the characters in the series give their best. Bobby Deol seems uncomfortable in Baba's role.

Or simply say that Bobby Deol seems to falter between Nirala Baba becoming Monty Singh and then Monty Singh becoming Nirala Baba.

His dialect and tone show the effect of dialogue delivery of Baba Kam and Sunny Deol, which breaks and irites you from the story.

Chandan Roy, who has appeared in films like Rang De Bansati, has also played Bhopa's character well. Talking about the actress in the Aashram web series, Aditi and Tridha Chaudhary attract.

All the problems Prakash Jha has shown in his films so far have been put together in this series. The problem is that instead of opening layer by layer all the problems are served together.

The second part of Aashram web series has an impressive season. The only problem is that to watch that season, you have to watch this season. Even if it is not very long, dull, and impressive. Still, Prakash Jha is forced to watch Aashram season 1, promising a bang for the next season.

Sadak 2 (2020)

The Movie is Like 'SadakChhap'

[1/10 · 29 August 2020]

Understand philosophically, Sadak 2 is the story of two broken characters coming together, who spiritually and mentally support each other.

The story is straightforward, but the screenplay has been so entangled that for some time one does not understand where the film is going.

The initial scenes of Sanjay Dutt and Aaliya confuse. However, later the picture starts to clear. However, by then the film is bored and runs on a very worn-out pattern.

sadak 2 movie review The writing of Pushpdeep Bhardwaj, Suhrata Sengupta, and Mahesh Bhatt was very weak. Dialogues are ineffective and outdated.

Even after half the film, nothing happens in the film. The film's villain changes with just a lot of twist and every twist that will haunt you after some time.

Arriving at Climax, the entire film piles up like a castle of cards. And you will never be disappointed with a film.

After the completion of 'Sadak 2' for about two and a half hours, the idea is that this is 'SadakChhap'.

The main character of the film is two - Alia Bhatt and Sanjay Dutt. Both have tried their best to portray their characters well.

But in some scenes where Sanjay Dutt is seen holding the character too much, Alia is seen leaving her character.

Aditya Roy Kapur done his parts as he could.

Talking about the supporting side, the best actors like Gulshan Grover, Mohan Kapoor were dealt cheaply.

The trailer of the film suggested that in the role of Baba, Makrand Deshpande would create an impact like Sadashiv Amrapurkar, who became the street queen, but his character was in fear Instead creates a sense of humor.

If any artist leaves an impact in the film, he is Jishu Sengupta. Jishu has played a negative role in the film and made scenes with his performance.

There is a balance in his acting. Actually, Jishu's character brings an exciting twist to the Sadak 2 story.

Mahesh Bhatt has come in 2020 with Sadak Part 2 and through which he has ended his exile under direction. However, this comeback is extremely disappointing and sad given Mahesh Bhatt's illustrious legacy.

To prove the film a sequel, an attempt has been made to randomly link the road.

For this, the street flashback scenes have been used so much in the film that you will feel bored. Pooja Bhatt is present only in scenes from her first film in the film.

This film is a high faded dish. You will enjoy everything while window shopping, but in the trial room you will just leave disappointed. So, if you believe us, you can leave this film comfortably.
