Bhooth Bangla Review There was a time when Bollywood comedies did not need to explain their jokes. The setup was invisible, the timing was surgical, and the laughter was involuntary. Bhooth Bangla, in 2026, makes a bold attempt to bring that era back — and for the most part, it succeeds gloriously. The Opening Act A Normal Beginning, Then Asrani ...
Dacoit Review There is a peculiar kind of frustration that comes from watching a film that clearly knows what it wants to be but spends an unreasonable amount of time deciding when to actually become it. Shaneil Deo’s Dacoit: A Love Story is precisely that kind of film — a heist-romance that opens like a lukewarm cup of chai, meanders ...
Dhurandhar The Revenge Review Director Aditya Dhar is back with Dhurandhar The Revenge, promising a massive scale, ruthless action, and a storyline deeply entrenched in real-world Indian politics. If there is one film in 2026 that sets the screen on fire with raw emotion and brute force, it is this one. However, the sheer volume of gunpowder and an exhausting ...
Assi Review Some films begin gently, giving you time to settle into the world before they start pulling the rug from under your feet. Assi does the opposite. Its very first scene is the kind that makes your skin tighten and your breath shorten—not because it’s trying to shock you with noise, but because it feels raw and intensely alive. ...
O Romeo Review O Romeo opens with the kind of swagger that immediately tells you what the film wants to be: Shahid Kapoor walks in carrying an attitude that feels like a mash-up of Kabir Singh’s rage and Ranbir Kapoor’s Animal-style violent bravado. On paper, that mix could have created something dangerously magnetic. On screen, it mostly becomes a reminder ...
Tu Yaa Main Review Tu Yaa Main opens with suspense right from the first beat, the kind that tells you, “Okay, buckle up—something messy is coming.” The lead pair is Adarsh Gaurav and Shanaya Kapoor, and the film clearly wants you to feel two worlds colliding: street energy versus glossy influencer life. On paper, it sounds like a familiar Bollywood ...
Mardaani 3 Review: An arresting start and a changed tone After the success of Mardaani and Mardaani 2, one might have expected the third part to open in a familiar way—but it does not. From the very beginning, Mardaani 3 signals a change of pace. Rani Mukherjee’s introduction is striking: she doesn’t just appear on screen, she seems to burst into a ...
Border 2 Review Border 2 comes with the weight of a legacy and the instant recall of Border 1’s iconic patriotic high. This time, the battle premise is set against the 1971 Indo–Pak war backdrop—and the film expands the familiar template by adding the Navy into the mix. Sounds promising on paper… but in execution, Border 2 often feels like ...
The Raja Saab Review Some movies start with a simple emotional hook and then slowly build a solid story around it. The Raja Saab also begins with something that could have been interesting: Prabhas’ dadi is searching for Prabhas’ dada—and that search becomes the starting point of the film. Sounds like a decent setup, right? But as the story moves ...
Ikkis Review War films usually make a promise: give the audience adrenaline early, keep the tempo high, and end with a heroic crescendo. Ikkis chooses a different route. It starts with strong character introductions and a quietly confident setup, then builds its emotional foundation before unleashing the kind of grounded, realistic combat that hits harder because you’ve lived with these ...
Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri Review There’s a very specific Bollywood mood that peaks around a big holiday release: glossy locations, big entrances, a soundtrack engineered for reels, and a love story that’s meant to feel “current” without alienating the widest possible audience. Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri arrives right in that lane—positioned as ...
Kis Kisko Pyaar Karoon 2 Review When “Repeat” Replaces “Refresh” Ten years is a long time in comedy. In 2015, Kis Kisko Pyaar Karoon introduced Kapil Sharma to the big screen with a full-blown confusion comedy about one man, three wives, and a pile of lies. A decade later, Kis Kisko Pyaar Karoon 2 arrives… and within minutes it feels ...
