Dunki
2023 · The National (Abu Dhabi) · Dec 2023
Dunki doesn't dwell too much on the journey, however, but chooses instead to highlight the hopes and dreams of its characters, their motivations and the sacrifices they've had to make for what they think will be a better life. And he's done it again with Dunki, spotlighting one of the most politically sensitive issues of our time with great sensitivity and clarity.
CHiPs
2017 · Gulf News · Mar 2017
Reimagined by writer, director, producer and star Dax Shepard, the big-screen CHIPS is a tawdry, testosterone-fuelled tale built around jokes and endless evaluation of women's appearances.
Zootopia
2016 · Gulf News · Mar 2016
Just when it was looking like animated animal movies had run out of anything original to say, along comes the smartly amusing, crisply relevant Zootopia to handily demonstrate there's still plenty of bite left in the anthropomorphic CG menagerie.
London Has Fallen
2016 · Gulf News · Mar 2016
This sort of movie was made for television viewing. You could tune in or out at any moment and really not miss anything. Or just have a drink beforehand and bring your rowdiest friends to the theatre.
Hamari Adhuri Kahani
2015 · Gulf News · Jun 2015
What the film could have been, and which it briefly is, is about a woman, who, despite her over-bearing reality, breaks free from tradition, follows her heart and triumphs. Instead, she stupidly walks with her suitcase into the sand dunes. No, this is not an incomplete story. It's just a badly told one.
