Detective Byomkesh Bakshy!
Don't miss it. Even if just to go back to the magical world of nostalgia created so beautifully and earnestly by Banerjee and cinematographer Nikos Andritsakis.

When a film aims at offering violence wrapped around a love story, there’s the possibility of a conflict between the two. Often, violence is romanticised to the point that humane elements are eventually overlooked.

Delhi In A Day
A whodunnit usually doesn't carry the burden of ethical or social lessons but this movie chooses to do the exact opposite.

Delhi Belly
This is a film that is sure to make you go red in the face, if not from embarrassment, surely from too much laughing.

Dekh Tamasha Dekh
A rare film that treats its audience as intelligent enough to understand the nuances of the subject that it deals with.

The best part of this film is perhaps that there is no compromise whatsoever with the pace, the decadence, the beauty and the purity of the language that a setting of this kind demands.

Dear Zindagi
... it just appears as if the film's unable to find a point, place a nail there, and just hammer it in. Which was so not the case with Shinde's masterstroke, 'English Vinglish' (2012).

Dear Dad
This could have been a better film dealing with a real issue, but sadly, the script and direction did not seem confident enough to deal with it.

The film just stops being about a relationship; let alone romance, or comedy. It's almost like the filmmakers are certain the intended audience won't connect much with such a young-old love, by itself, in a single screen theatre. Well if you think they can't take it, then why make it?

If you're in the mood for a ton of laughs, this slapstick riot is for you. That is, of course, you can keep up.

Bejoy Nambiar’s second venture has none of the energy or the edge of his first Shaitaan. But the storytelling shows maturity. A pity that it turned out to be so average.

... a wholly enjoyable ride in the theatre, yet again. Don't think I need to say more. You won't miss this anyway.

Daddy
It can't exactly be termed as Gawli's biopic, because so much of his life is missing from the film. Nor can one say that it is entertaining as it offers nothing new.

Dabangg 3
...there's no point intellectualising, analyzing, mentally masturbating over a movie that makes no bones about its severely lowbrow, literally below-the-belt purpose.

Dabangg 2
...apna Salman returns in top form and cheer and really, that’s what will delight diehard fans.

...essentially a formula film and the script could've done with some more highs.

Daawat-e-Ishq
The premise is promising, the intention is right, but the half-baked script fails to hold one’s attention for long.

This rough, dusty roller-coaster ride though is still about the stolen moments (music included), some delightfully wonky folk, crackling scenes (screenplay co-credited to Jaydeep Sarkar), top-notch dialogues, soaked in the patois of contemporary Lucknow (co-credited to Tariq Siddiqui).

...with an innovative story idea, adept editing, fantastic execution and good performances is immensely watchable, at least once.

...it just seems like a gimmick to cash in on a controversy. No heart, no soul -- just a stillborn.

This film keeps you engaged alright. During its two-hour plus period, it makes you snigger, snort, laugh out loud at the unintentional humour and makes you gasp with disbelief at the absurdity of it all.

A film so real that you can almost touch it. Please go watch it. The audience needs such films more than the film needing the audience.

Coolie No.1
None of this campy comedy from the times of Campa Cola is done with any sense of irony. Making everything else that follows seem not so much as an insult to the audience's intelligence, as a movie that ignores your intellect altogether.
