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 →

Jackson Bazaar Youth – My Flash Review
With a title like that, it is difficult to fathom what the film is all about. A few minutes into the film, you get that it is the name of a local band around which the story is centred. The band is shown to be very popular in the small town of Kerala somewhere near... Continue Reading →
Pachuvum Athbutha Vilakkum – My Flash Review!
With a title like that, your guess about the genre of the film is most likely that it is a comedy film. Pachuvum Athbutha Vilakkum (PAV) begins like a slice-of-life comedy affair. But along the way, it keeps shifting its genre to being a crime story and a love story and even a social drama... Continue Reading →
Sirf Ek Bandaa Kaafi Hai – My Flash Review!
One can easily mistake this film for a typical masala action flick starring Salman Khan or Ajay Devgn. In reality, it is a courtroom drama made almost in documentary style with Manoj Bajpayee in the lead. The Bajpayee factor upped my interest to watch the film that dropped on OTT last week. The strange title... Continue Reading →
