Mujhse Fraaandship Karoge
If I were a student, I wouldn't mind bunking a few lectures to catch it again, with my campus friends I so miss now.

Harud
If the purpose of a movie is to move you, then Harud does that pretty well. For mainstream regulars, this independent effort might come across as a bit boring.

Ekkees Toppon Ki Salaami
...is different from the crowd and has something new to offer. The satire unassumingly takes you on a tragicomedy journey that is incredibly believable.

Bala
It's almost as if the film has been designed to clear every headspace and leg/elbow room for the leading man Ayushmann to spread his wings and soar. And boy, does he shine—perhaps outshining anything he's done in the mainstream space so far.

The Dirty Picture
The film shocks, titillates, makes you laugh, and gets you involved.

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.

it's Shah who really steals the show. The character seems to be an extension of his real self, and you will have newfound respect for him.

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

Bombay Velvet
...is more like a roller coaster ride, as it takes you on a dizzy high with its charming ambience and music that is bound to stay with you for long, but later you are brought down not so gently with the underwhelming plot and lack of punches.

But watch this one. You might come out loving yourself a little more than you do.

Peepli [Live]
The on-goings in the film have an authentic touch and that's why the screenplay manages to evoke humour and pathos in equal doses.

Tanu Weds Manu Returns
Even though Kangana has evidently grown by leaps and bounds in confidence over the five years since she starred in the original, the same can not be said about the sequel.

Madras Cafe
Watch this one as it takes you back to a horrid chapter of our political history and makes you think.

Filmistaan
Kakkar deserves a round of applause for staying true to the story and thus establishing the fact that a sincere story, told with simplicity, can entertain you as much if not more, in spite of the absence of the mandatory romantic songs or worse still, an item number.

Bajrangi Bhaijaan
Be ready to want to wolf whistle, even when you have a tear or two stealthily streaming down your cheek. Watch it.

Phobia
The best thing about this film is that it doesn't follow the trusted and safe route of horror films and gets pleasantly unpredictable at the end.

Stree
The filmmakers here, supremely strong on craft, pull it off swiftly though, landing most of the punches (including punch-lines) at the right place.

Ghayal Once Again
Sunny Deol, as a director, does a better than decent job. He manages to keep the plot believable and keep you involved in the goings on.

Panga
...has the same histrionics films of such nature are known for- Parental conflict, sacrifices, heroic montages, training sequences, and ultimate triumph. But despite all the ingredients, the film is fueled by sharp writing by Tiwari and Nikhil Mehrotra, boisterous dialogues and above all

Khelein Hum Jee Jaan Sey
Gowariker deserves full marks for picking a historic subject that's novel and unique.

Gangs Of Wasseypur
...a delightful film. It has a grand plot, lots of interesting characters, and an epic canvas.

Talaash
A no-frills taut plot, a gripping even pace, a limited character palette, some surreal moments, ‘Talaash’ is consistent as a thriller.

Bombay Talkies
Each film comes with a distinct emotion. Zoya’s film has a wide-eyed innocent feel to it, Dibakar’s film has muted passion, Johar’s film is about helplessness and Kashyap’s film is about optimism and faith in the face of harsh reality.

Happy New Year
Director Farah Khan offers a fully masaledaar entertainer yet again and as is her style, serves it with a side dish of dollops of delightful self-deprecating humour.
