Shikara
...is a beautifully shot and poignant love story with fine performances that could have been a compelling masterpiece but it unfortunately gives in to the conventional love story.

Dhanak
...the 'real' problem with Nagesh Kukunoor's Dhanak is the evaporation of the real world in the second half to make way for a predictable fairy tale that restricts the lead characters personal growth in the journey that fails to create the lasting magic that it should have earned.

Tarpan
...may not be that nostalgic and hard – hitting as it should have been considering the subject matter, it flaws are glaring but still the honesty by director Neelam R Singh to tell a story to the people that needs to be told cannot be ruled out.

Sui Dhaaga
...has everything a feel good family movie should have, it’s an inspiring tale as well with moments but lacks the fresh breeze of air and individuality which Dum Laga Ke Haisha had – the common love for Kumar Sanu for example.

Bypass Road

Mere Pyare Prime Minister
...it has its heart at the right place and is an endearingly relevant letter to the Prime Minister. Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra’s Mann Ki Baat has a heart.

Yaaram
...has flaws and some are glaring but the pious intention is undeniable, the absence of high pitch melodrama which could have been easily possible is commendable to an extent. Ovais Khan could have tried a spoof on the issue or maybe he had attempted one in his capacity. Whatever be the case, Yaaram is a pious attempt with decent acts.

Satellite Shankar
...is a feel-good and syrupy adaptation of the 1959 Russian classic Ballad of a Soldier, having less brain and more heart but the important thing is, it brings an Indian to smile and feel proud for India and the Indian army.

Ghost (2019)
...is a tour de scare that takes care that a loyalist of Bollywood’s supernatural horror/mystery is not disappointed.

Bhoot – Part One
...is a decent sonically atmospheric scare fest having Vicky Kaushal delivering an ‘arresting’ act. It offers something different from the routine Bollywood scares.

Zero
The movie is a test of patience and demands great degree of suspension of disbelief. But like those dimples on that smiling face, Shah Rukh Khan as Bauua Singh leaves a lasting impression.

Manikarnika
...is filled with major flaws and passion and pride for India in equal proportion. Kangana Ranaut tribute to one of India’s bravest warrior Queen Rani Laxmibai on screen is painted with dignity, love and grace.

Helicopter Eela

Happy Bhag Jayegi
What happens when a potential laugh-riot ends as just a feel good smiley? Sadness offered from the run-of-the-mill ROM com does run away but afsoos (Alas) it also takes away the potential source of a ROM com with a different force.
