Mahaprabhu Jagannath
2026 · Times Of India
A decent family watch, especially for children interested in mythology, fantasy adventures and colourful visuals, though the film needed more visual polish to truly stand out as a promising mythological animation.

Thrash
2026 · Times Of India
It's the kind of movie that keeps you mildly engaged while watching but fades quickly from memory.

Awarapan 2
2026 · Times Of India
For Emraan Hashmi fans, this is less a sequel and more a reunion. Awarapan 2 may not match the emotional intensity of the original, but it delivers enough massy entertainment to keep the core audience engaged.

Onslaught
2026 · Times Of India
A stylish throwback that pulls its punches. Watch it for Adria Arjona, atmospheric visuals and flashes of bloody action, but keep your expectations measured.

Harrd Disk
2026 · Times Of India
With weak humour, stretched pacing and an underdeveloped screenplay, Harrd Disk ultimately feels like a promising idea buried under a stretched, unfocused thriller.

The Super Mario Galaxy Movie
2026 · Times Of India
Watch it for the visuals and nostalgia — it's entertaining in bursts, but keeps running, jumping and falling short of being a complete package.

Ishqnama
2026 · Times Of India
More than a romance across borders, it's a deeply human story that reminds us love is stronger than [the barriers that divide us].

Babita Singh Reporting
2026 · Times Of India
A quiet, thoughtful investigation into patriarchy and self-worth

Welcome to the Jungle
2026 · Times Of India
A chaotic comedy adventure that delivers ample laughs. If you enjoy chaotic ensemble comedies packed with slapstick humour— this jungle ride offers enough.

Carry On Jatta 4
2026 · Times Of India
Carry On Jatta 4 delivers familiar chaos with bigger laughs and the franchise magic remains intact, offering audiences what they've come to expect from the beloved series.

Lust Stories 3
2026 · Times Of India
Lust Stories 3 is ultimately an uneven but sincere anthology. Some segments lean heavily on their premise or twist, but the film's biggest strength is its willingness to treat female desire as an important part of relationships rather than a taboo subject. Rather than being simply about lust, the film uses desire to explore loneliness, insecurity, communication and the need for emotional and physical connection.

Pyaar Prema Kalyanam
2026 · Times Of India
Its treatment of marriage, family and gender roles is not groundbreaking, but its light-hearted approach gives the familiar conversation a refreshing perspective. By asking whether marriage should mean leaving one's family behind—or simply finding a way for two people to build a life that works for them—the film makes its point without losing sight of entertainment.

Accused
2026 · Times Of India
Konkona Sen Sharma anchors a tense psychological drama with layered storytelling and nuanced performances.

Cocaine
2026 · Times Of India
Sarim Momin's film is a watchable thriller that thrives on atmosphere and performance but falters in execution, promising more than it ultimately delivers.

Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai
2026 · Times Of India
While HJTIHH offers a handful of laughs, catchy songs and a committed central performance from Varun, the film ultimately relies too heavily on Dhawan's energy to keep this comedy afloat, falling short of being a genuinely memorable entertainer.

Heer Sara
2026 · Times Of India
A pleasant road trip that doesn't fully reach its destination. Watch it for its feel-good road-trip spirit and charming friendship, but don't expect a groundbreaking narrative.

Haunted 3D: Echoes of the Past
2026 · Times Of India
A dated horror sequel that struggles to haunt. A horror sequel that remains haunted not by spirits, but by its inability to move beyond the formula.

Border 2
2026 · Times Of India
Border 2 is a war drama that doesn't redefine the genre, but it benefits from Sunny Deol's roaring presence, its rousing spirit, and the emotion it wears proudly.

De De Pyaar De 2
2025 · Times Of India
De De Pyaar De 2 doesn't reinvent the formula — it merely updates it with wit, charm, and maturity. Despite its uneven tone and missing spark, the film remains an enjoyable, light-hearted sequel that reminds us love can defy age, but not always logic.

Raat Akeli Hai - The Bansal Murders
2025 · Times Of India
A sincere, slow-burn sequel elevated by Nawazuddin Siddiqui, but short on the tension that made the original compelling. Nawazuddin Siddiqui's quiet intensity powers an ambitious but tame thriller.

Dhoom Dhaam
2025 · Times Of India
Dhoom Dhaam is a fast-paced rollercoaster of action, comedy, and mystery, powered by Yami Gautam and Pratik Gandhi's electric chemistry.

Wild Wild Punjab
2024 · Times Of India
Wild Wild Punjab is an entertaining but bumpy trip of misadventures.

Sector 36
2024 · Times Of India
While not for everyone, Sector 36 is a stark reminder of the real-life horrors that can lurk beneath.

Sooryavanshi
2021 · Times Of India
Sooryavanshi is high on style, show and action thrills

Mastiii 4
2025 · Times Of India · Nov 2025
Mastiii 4 caters strictly to fans of adult comedies who enjoy unabashed silliness, loud performances and low-brow humour. It offers a handful of laughs and some comfort-zone nostalgia for franchise loyalists. For everyone else, it’s a loud, uneven and often cringe-filled ride best avoided.

Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat
2025 · Times Of India · Oct 2025
EDKD strives to rekindle a bygone era of love—one where intensity often overshadowed logic and passion flirted with obsession. Much like Saiyaara, it doesn’t venture into new territory, yet it finds its footing with those who still cherish melodrama laced with nostalgia.

Jaat
2025 · Times Of India · Apr 2025
Jaat delivers exactly what it promises: a nostalgia-fueled action drama powered by its male leads and dialogue-heavy theatrics. But for all its sound and fury, it lacks the courage to push beyond its comfort zone. It’s a decent one-time watch for fans of old-school Deol-led actioners, but for anyone seeking innovation or depth, Jaat may feel like a missed opportunity wrapped in a thunderous punch.
