Secret Soldier

Secret Soldier

2026 · Times Of India

Secret Soldier attempts to blend espionage, friendship, and identity into an engaging thriller but struggles to create the desired impact. However, the screenplay lacks the tension and urgency required for a spy thriller. Despite its promising premise and genuine intentions, the film falls short due to uneven pacing and predictable storytelling.

Mirai

2025 · Times Of India

Despite some narrative flaws, the film stands out for its visual grandeur, mythological depth, and strong performances — making it a worthwhile watch, especially for fans of stylised, myth-inspired superhero tales.

The Girlfriend

The Girlfriend

2025 · Times Of India · Nov 2025

This film mirrors the realities of many young women by exposing affection disguised as control with parents and romantic partners and unveiling raw human emotions. With its emotionally powerful storytelling, director Rahul Ravindran crafts a gripping drama that doesn’t shy away from the uncomfortable truths of modern relationships.
