Could a simple lunchbox and its contents change lives? One of the best films to come out of India in a long time, director Ritesh Batra answers the question in his little masterpiece, The Lunchbox.

Phata Poster Nikhla Hero is a caper comedy that rides on pop culture and, in full awareness, cliches…
Essentially a gimmicky two-star film that entertains in bits, a half star extra for Salman Khan’s epic, self-deprecating cameo.

ikram Bhatt has finally nailed it. Horror Story is a confident film. So confident, in fact, that early into the movie one of the characters asks another if this is just one more “ghisi piti kahani” that they’re getting into.

Inspired by Box 507 (Spain, 2002), John Day is a slow, cumbersome watch that takes too much time to tell too little.

Grand Masti is unabashedly gross, vulgar, crass, shameless and fearlessly adult. But for a moment one has to step back from the noise of dissent – from the guardians of Indian culture and their histrionic fatwas – and ask yourself one simple question: Who are we to choose for others?

Should you watch Shuddh Desi Romance? Yes. It’s light, it’s unconventional, it’s still Bollywood, and it breaks the fourth wall in more ways than one. Ignore the hiccups, and there’s no reason you won’t enjoy it.

In this distressing time of remakes and hand-me-down inspirations, let’s remember Herman Melville, “It is better to fail at originality than to succeed in imitation.” Zanjeer manages neither.

Satyagraha solely documents and offers fleeting wisdom. It succeeds at highlighting the problem but fails at achieving poignancy.

This charged political thriller, despite its flaws, is a leap in the right direction – away from that other “Madras”-titled film and its ilk – that deserves our support. If nothing else, it’ll give you an acute insight and a timely reminder of the turmoil our neighbors went through and our country’s confounding contribution to the matter.

To sum up, Once Upon Ay Time in Mumbai Dobaara is a better crafted film than it’s predecessor but unfortunately considerably shallower. It’s style keeps you reasonably occupied but for a runtime of 160 minutes, it needed a lot more substance.
