Isse Kehte hai Entertaining Sitcom , Maza aagaya 3.5 Star ⭐⭐⭐.5

This Situational Comedy on a serious social issue is refreshing and delightful to watch with humour surrounding it round making you laugh out loud , there are scenes you will play on rewind to laugh over again , The Chemistry between the lead pair is solid , Kriti Kharbanda excels in her role & Vikrant Massey as usual is a dhamaka , he has been super amazing all through, Special Mentions for Gauhar Khan who entertains in both her roles and she has played them beautifully , rest follows the ensemble cast Priyanshu ,Yamini das and all others who have delivered spot on humour. The film scores a star less for its predictable storyline but mantains its impact due to the unqiue screenplay and well written & naturally enacted comedy scenes . The film at its end does throw light on Prestigue issues, Log kya kahenge and honour killing ....All and all its a neat and clean family entertainer , you are sure to have a lot of laughs in this fun journey.

Toofaan

Toofaan

Strictly Mediocre,the film & its characters are earnest but same old bollywood boxing formula nothing outstanding 2.5 Star ⭐⭐.5 

With huge expectation comes this sports drama , 110% marks for the hardwork put on by Farhan Aktar for his transformation & also for effortless acting as Aziz ali the gangster as well as boxer aka Toofaan . The film as an whole does have few moments of fun,emotion , love and a message being delivered without being preachy, but what fails is the cliche boxing sequences ,an formula thats age old in bollywood  and no more excites the audience , None of the boxing seem adrenaline pumping or power packed they just seem repetative and all you can do is forward them , the film is too long i.e 2hrs 45mins and poor editing is what makes it dragged , the film could have been easily completed off in 2hrs , unnecessary songs pop up every now and then adding to the boredom , and the title track of Toofaan which could pack a punch is added in the end credits which dosent make any sense . First half is pretty much engaging and you kind of go along with the story as it transits but the 2nd half derails and feels very boring & laggy , the chemistry between the lead pair Farhan & Mrunal excels , and is well presented . Coming to acting Farhan is the real Toofaan and has been mind blowing , Mrunal is beautiful with her smile in every frame and has delivered a nice performance, Veteran actor Paresh Rawal Ji has also delivered an amazingly awesome performance all throughout the film as a coach & as a father , Vijay Raaz in the special appearence is decent . All and all the film missed out on making a zabardast power punch impact , just feels like an ordinary sports drama which is average . Climax scenes are the only points where film has scenes which standout or make a damakedar impact apart from that the film dosent liveup to its expectation.

Collar Bomb

Collar Bomb(D+Hotstar)
Good Intention,Great Start but Ends up flat basic & impactless 2 Star ⭐⭐
Film starts off  with great expectation and goes on building up suspense , thrill & a complicated plot & you feel  it would amazing suspense hard to guess what this is all about until after few minutes when everything turns out plain basic , by the end the film leaves not much impact even though the film had a very good intention & message to tell us it fails due to poor screenplay & hodge podged direction , what is apprecitable is the editing of the film which is on point runtime and not simply exagarated . VFX is not upto the mark ,BGM could have been better, Coming to the Actors Jimmy Shergill as always proves he is a good actor  and has great screen presence but he could have had even better scope which has been missed out by the director as Jimmy Shergill is not just good he is far far amazing actor, Asha Negi has also done a great job but the accent with her has gone wrong in the film . All and all this film had a potential but a lot if time was wasted in trying to build a suspense which was later presented in a minute wihtout any impact , the film would have been far better if it was written well and directed well , this is definetly a opportunity missed .Also the film could have been named something else .  A film that begins promising but ends being below average.

Hum Bhi Akele Tum Bhi Akele(D+Hotstar)

Hum Bhi Akele Tum Bhi Akele(D+Hotstar)
Brave Attempt but dosent live up to the expectation set 1.5 Star ⭐.5
Themed around LGBTQ issues the film throws light on genuine issues and hurdels faced in a sensitive way and how LBGTQ community is judged on basis of presumptious thought process. The film is definetly brave at its attempt but what fails is a boring a laggy screenplay , poor music and unnecessary songs every now and then , editing has been very poor, the film could easily be chopped off 30 to 40 mins of unnecessary drag making it crisp . Coming to the actors Zareen Khan has failed to live up to her role ,the acting feels fake and artificial all through , the coversations, rappo everything just seems pretentious .Anshuman Jha has done a decent job and rest follows the ensemble cast . The very purpose of the film is killed at the climax and ends up like a typical hero heroine happy ending film which is immensly disappointing , all though the film was slow and laggy if the climax had been good the film would score better for a portrayal like never before . Overall a film that is different and new age but fails to live on the purpose it was actually made for so not a worth watch 

Sardar Ka Grandson

Sardar Ka Grandson
Promising & Heart Warming concept but fails at execution big time 2.5 Star ⭐⭐.5
This film is an emotional cross border tale something similar to Bhajrangi Bhaijaan in a different way , the film had great potential to excel but the way its written & directed fails bigtime . Nena Gupta is an delight to watch as Sardar , Rakulpreet is beautiful in every frame , Arjun Kapoor has been mediocre and rest follows the ensemble cast. The film has an emotional core attached to it and makes u feel the realm of it at points , had it been directed & executed well would leave heartfull impact . Overall an average film to watch out 

State Of Seige-Temple Attack

State Of Siege - Temple Attack(Zee5 Film)

Fictional story inspired by true events stands out 3.5 Star ⭐⭐⭐.5

The story & plot inspired by true events of an attack at Akshardam Temple fictionalised  and presented in a spine chilling screenplay with the complete ordeal of what happend and the impact of this on the innocent devotees and their family present at the premise , you can feel the pain, the fear & anger in every frame while you glue into the story telling and wait for the cruel terrorists to be busted by our proud soilders of NSG. The way NSG handels the situation at the front foot to neutralize the threat risking their life  for the nation & its citizens gets you goosebumps .The climax is a experience you will feel along the narration and feel the heat of the moment till the end arrives . The film is at points loosely writtent but all of it is overlooked due to the plot which engages you in the story , the actions scenes are simple yet great , Actors have done a great job specially Akshaye Khanna who drives it at his potential , film gets you personal and in every frame you feel for whats going on all the emotions and you heart flows for the innocent people and  at the same time you feel proud on our soilders . There are flaws at points , a little exxagaration at points , a little preachy at points but All and all its a film , which is more of an experience and a worth watch .

Ray

Ray(Netflix Series)

Netflix's Latest antalogy gets you through the lens 4 different short stories of Satyajit Ray into a series which gets you the mysterious mindset of human. 

EP1: Forget Me Not - 4 Star ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Ali Fazal Kills it all in the role of a flambouyant businessman and a cruel human being , this episode & story explores story of a women being played on and betrayed and the complete revenge system and portrays part of life where the same business man turns dementia patient . The fate of a human who once was compared to an computer to a lady who silently accepted betrayal her way and all the pain and the tabels turning in life is beautifully portrayed . It is a worth watch from acting to plot all and all a winner. 

EP2: Bahurupiya -  3.5 Star ⭐⭐⭐.5

This episode is well directed , Kay Kay menon is mindblowing as the baharupiya , plot is engaging and has the curosity factor to it . This story is also worth the watch. 

EP3:Hungama Kyu Hai Barpa-4 Star⭐⭐⭐⭐

One of the rare gem of a kind duo Manoj Bajpaye & Gajaraj Rao and their fun banter and exchange is something to look out for , there is humour , sweet talks and right comic notes between the both when they meet twice on a train .They have a object common to their fates both they they meet and the way its presented creates excitement & fun in the narration and the way the story ends is something that will definetly lite up smiles on your faces. its a duo you cant miss . 

EP4: Spotlight- 2 Star ⭐⭐

This story shows irrevelance of a star irrespective of his fame & following v/s a mysterious religious leader called didi who has way more popularity & craze , the star played by Harshvardhan kapoor is insecure about the same and also curious on this . On the other hand Radhika Madan who plays didi in real is nothing close to what the star considers her as , the 2 characters meet and have a conversation and the climax is something to look out for . Coming to acting Harshvardhan dosent seem to be in his character  and the whole portryal feels unreal , the story also feels immature , Radhika Madan has definetly done a great job but all and all this story dosent simply stand out and fails to impress. 

Haseena Dilruba

Haseena Dilruba
Starts Off Promising,Ends Disappointing 2.5 Star ⭐⭐.5
First half has a feeling of something new & intresting, 2nd half is all Slow,mediocre & random and the climax finally kills all the points the film had earned sustaining till the end .Film tries to sail through Thriller , Romance , Entertainment but fails at all of it creating a mess . No doubt the film tries to be something new , something out of the box but as it depends on illogical writing and randomly switching plot it fails bigtime . Vikrant Massey is definetly a star performer in the film , Tapsee Pannu has also done a decent Job , Harshvardan Rane also stands out in his act but again very less screen space for a character that was important .Many scenes in the film lack common sense. The film in first half definetly looks very intresting and engaging starting from the depection of early marriage days to the point when a 3rd person enters in, but from the 2nd half the film looses its track which is sterotypical and random, investigation also stays mediocre and the climax is out of the world illogical and beyond any scope left to be accepted as reality . The whole thriller point for which you wait until the end is like a mere joke and as usual the film ends like a typical bollwyood film proving that the film is nothing new , nothing out of the box . overall a total disappointment from a film that had lot of expectations .
