The Buckingham Murders (2024)
Okay, first of all, let me say that someone who can make an awesome Biryani or a fantastic cake is perfectly capable of making a terrible Sabudana Khichadi. So when, Hansal Mehta, who made Shahid and Citylights makes Buckingham Murders you shouldn’t hold that against…

Devara Part 1 (2024)
A movie made for the masses is usually supposed to be intense, grandiose, with high voltage action, stars with huge fan base, seeti maar songs and dances and a racy plot. Devara gets all of this but forgets to get in the plot. So we…

Do Patti (2024)
DO PATTI, BUT EK NA CHALI!Do Patti scores top marks for me as one of the worst A-lister Hindi films I have seen in recent times. I like both Kriti Sanon and Kajol as very capable actors, but Do Patti is that one film that…

Auron Mein kahan Dum Tha (2024)
I will begin by saying that Neeraj Pandey deserves a huge round of applause for making this movie. It takes some serious courage to think that the viewers of the 21st century are a bunch of morons. And this sort of courage shouldn’t go unappreciated.…

Nanpakal Nerathu Mayakkam (2022)
MORE NIGHTMARE THAN DREAM Nanpakal Nerathu Mayakkam is a strange movie. Reminiscent of the style of films like Elippathayam (1982), it is deliberately slow to the point of ennui. There are cinematic devices strewn around in the narrative ostensibly to evoke a “how clever” from…
