Most famed directors over some time develop a signature template for their films. Rajkumar Hirani is not an exception. His template is to pick up a serious social subject that has a universal appeal, develop an interesting screenplay around it and lace it with scenes that work on humour at one level and emotions at...

The Freelancer (Web Series) – My Flash Review!
First up, the motivation to watch this web series is of course the man behind it – Neeraj Pandey who has built a formidable reputation for himself in the thriller particularly the Spy thriller genre with works like Baby, Aiyyary and The Special Ops series. Pandey is credited with creating and co-writing this series while... Continue Reading →
The Railway Men – My Flash Review!
When you watch The Railway Men, what strikes you most are the highly superior production values and the making of the series. I haven’t seen one in recent times on Indian OTT platforms that has taken such painstaking efforts to recreate an Indian heartland town of the 80s. For people like me who belong to...

Kannur Squad – My Flash Review!
The title Kannur Squad sounds like a story of some crack covert team from Kerala but out on some mission of National and International consequence. This film is indeed about a crack team but from the Police that operated in real in Kannur to investigate and crack down on the rising crimes in North Kerala... Continue Reading →
Tiger-3 – My Flash Review!
Tiger-3 as the title suggests, is the 3rd in the ‘Tiger” series of Salman Khan – Yashraj Production combo. I really liked the 1st one in the series – Ek Tha Tiger; the 2nd one – Tiger Zinda Hai was o.k and not bad and therefore I looked forward to watching this one. But then,... Continue Reading →

Jawan – My (late) Flash Review!
As I write this, Jawan has already completed more than two weeks in theatres and has turned out to be a humungous box office hit beating many records. The film starring Shahrukh Khan is directed by Atlee, a relatively new name in Bollywood but a very familiar name in South India having churned out successive... Continue Reading →
Jailer – My Flash Review!
Any Rajinikanth movie comes with loads of expectations and associated hype and Jailer is no exception. The film, coming at the back of a few average outings like 2.0, Durbar and Annatthe for the actor and an underwhelming Beast for Director Nelson obviously arrived with additional pressure for these two. First up, I must say... Continue Reading →
Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahani – My Flash Review!
I always thought that as a filmmaker Karan Johar doesn’t just make films, but celebrates films. Invariably his films wade into oodles of nostalgia at every opportunity. His latest film – Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahani (Rocky from here on) goes a step further. It is an unapologetic tribute to the Bollywood of Yore,... Continue Reading →
