Satyaprem Ki Katha
The best part of the movie is its performance and the concept it touches upon through a love story. But the biggest problem is also that although it does dramatises the social issue but doesn't delve deeper. Go watch Satyaprem Ki Katha this weekend with your family and come back home with some better understanding and some food for thought.

Pathaan
Fireworks all the way from start to end - that's Yash Raj bankrolled actioner Pathaan for all. There is not even a single dull moment in this YRF actioner. The action sequences between SRK and John are over-the-top yet mind-numbing.

Ponniyin Selvan: Part I
Make no mistake about it, Mani Ratnam's 'Ponniyin Selvan - Part I' is a masterpiece that deserves all your adulation and love. The auteur does a phenomenal job of bringing to life the exceptional characters of eminent writer Kalki's finest creation, 'Ponniyin Selvan'. The beauty of Part one of the two-part film lies in the fact that Mani Ratnam has not only made the story concise but has managed to do so carefully, taking adequate care not to dilute the essence of the novel or its charm.

War
If you are a Hrithik, Tiger fan and want to enjoy an action-packed spectacle of two good-looking men bruised and bleeding with guns and bullets giving them company, then 'War' is for you. Also, the twists and turns can boggle your brain but no I am not giving away any of the spoilers here!

Thugs of Hindostan
Fans will watch 'Thugs Of Hindostan' this weekend, as it's a festival release but when the makers could burst a sparkling bomb this Diwali they delivered a 'phuski pataka'.

Dishoom
The only thing which bothers is the fact that a lot of stuff happens while you still try to figure out the scene. But maybe that's because the entire film runs on a 36-hour-long deadlock. Be ready for many highs but do not think on 'how is it possible?'. Do not forget, it's Bollywood and nothing is impossible.

Te3n
All in all, Amitabh Bachchan will leave a lasting first impression in this flick while Nawazuddin Siddiqui excels in his dual job of a Father and an Inspector. Vidya Balan will remind you to not forget her 'Kahaani' performance, just as we know a sequel is in the pipeline.

Azhar
The ghost of match-fixing and the allegations run across the run-time, and what exactly a player goes through if he's innocent is what 'Azhar' summarises. Go, watch it for the love of cricket!

All in all, even if you aren't SRK's 'Jabra' Fan, you are bound to become one after watching his bestest performance till date. To make it sound a little filmy, I will end by saying, 'Rehne De Tu Nahi Samjhega'!

Fitoor
There is certainly a different kind of curiosity which binds the viewers in watching a story unfold on-screen which has been read before. Despite, knowing the basic plot, the director's vision surprises us in each scene. Fitoor has some power-packed dialogues by Supratik Sen.

Ghayal Once Again
What do you expect from a Sunny Deol flick? Lots of action, punches and some hard-hitting dialogues? But, his latest outing 'Ghayal Once Again' which was earlier titled 'Ghayal Returns' lacks in these core Sunny Deol speciality areas.

Airlift
There is not a moment of disbelief while you watch how one man named Ranjit Katyal could try his best in evacuating 1,70,000 Indians safely back to our Motherland—India. And yes, with one Kuwaiti woman and her toddler as well. The story of Indians struggling in the war zone, which by the way was their 'home away from home' is not just thrilling but heavily inspiring.

Dilwale
Let's start by saying that don't have any preconceived notion about 'Dilwale' before you plan to book your tickets. It's not just a romantic saga where two people meet and fall in love, there's certainly more to it.

Prem Ratan Dhan Payo
The director has tried his best to keep the ethics of Indian culture right at the centre of his screenplay. The movie is a sureshot family entertainer, without any uncomfortable scenes. However, it does take a while to digest that such a perfect family and ethics can co-exist in today's time.

Hero
...the camera work has used certain innovative techniques, and it was a good decision to use slow motion for fight chase, as it doubles the effect on viewers. 'Main Hun Hero Tera' by Salman Khan will definitely rush you to the cinema halls, we are sure. So, grab a ticket a watch this one to see the new-age 'hero' and 'heroine'.

Drishyam
You possibly should not miss this film, because one it has those intense eyes of Ajay Devgn along with realistic performance by Tabu. And if that's not enough, then you have another reason - content surely is the king.

Dil Dhadakne Do
We say go watch 'Dil Dhadakne Do' for understanding this dysfunctional Punjabi family but in a larger-than-life cruise ship along with little dog Pluto, who has a surprise to offer when you 'hear' him out. No, I am not letting the cat out! Let your 'dil' beat a little harder for the Mehras.

Gabbar is Back
The filmmaker Krish has tried to bring forth the point that how youth can do wonders if the energy is channelised on the right path. The way and mechanism through which Gabbar stings the corrupt officials, thereby creating a sense of terror among everyone is incredible to watch. The film never loses its momentum—with some power-packed punches and high jumps.

Baby
The fact that innocent minds are captivated and influenced in the name of religion, must be seen as one of the biggest issues that our country is dealing with. Akshay Kumar has taken his action hero image to the next level with 'Baby'. It is a must watch entertainer for every Indian. Go grab your tickets!

Tevar
We have seen a lot of northern India and heard the dialect which strikes a hit note with the audiences, recently. Still, when you open your eyes to the world of Arjun Kapoor aka Pintoo in 'Tevar', there is something you feel for Agra and Mathura.

Raja Natwarlal
Filmmaker Kunal Deshmukh's 'Raja Natwarlal' starts with a small con game and towards the climax, the movie ends with a huge con, making the audience applaud seeing our 'hero' Emraan Hashmi. We can safely say that the con is on, beware!

Singham Returns
Overall, `Singham Returns` is a depiction of power-play and dirty politics which meddles in the way of dutiful Mumbai Police, but only to be met with an end like that of Swamiji and Prakash Rao. Actor Ajay Devgn shines as a tough cop and we do like his way of `encountering` the culprits. For `Singham` fans, here is a bonus for you and a good way to celebrate independence day. Thumbs up for this film—else `Ata Majhi Satakli`!
