Aanand L Rai is sure commanding mastery over stories emanating from the North Indian heartland – the dialect, the nuances and the humour.

Watch ‘Tanu Weds Manu Returns’, it will definitely make you laugh out loud for the most part. This is one sexy swagger by Kangana.

Kashyap made films from the heart and it struck a chord and here, he dilutes his style, attempting cosmetic precision – and the film remains just that – a superficial story with superfluous characters.

‘Gabbar Is Back’ is not a complete waste of time, it is just a very problematic film.

Detective Byomkesh Bakshy is definitely worth a watch but is it brilliant? Not really.

…is a fun watch. What is in fact commendable is that a banner like Yash Raj Films has put its weight behind a project like this one. We always associate YRF with foreign locales, snowcapped mountains and chiffon-clad heroines – basically slick productions where everything looks perfect. It is heartwarming to see a relatable story with characters you can identify with.

Watch Badlapur. Yes, it is disturbing, but it is by far the best revenge saga I have seen in a long time.

Watch it if you want to, but Roy was just too pretentious for my choice.

Ali Fazal kind of holds the first half together, simply because we are still confused about the dead husband. But post interval it all collapses into a heap of inanity. Frankly speaking, there is just too much noise in ‘Khamoshiyan’.

Watch ‘PK’, I am sure no other recent film has doled out such genuine humour.

After three hours (2 hours 25 minutes to be precise), which felt like eternity, the discombobulating was officially over. I hugged myself and advise that you do the same. What a waste!
