Hansal Mehta’s upcoming film Simran starring Kangana Ranaut is a much awaited film and for many reasons — Ranaut as the lead makes it quite a watch and Mehta helming the project adds a huge weight of credibility in the story owing to his past records. The trailer of the film was launched on 8 August and it immediately intrigues you with its sheer simplicity — both in the story-telling and performance. Just […]

 On the occasion of Mahesh Babu’s 41st birthday, the teaser of his highly anticipated upcoming spy thriller Spyder was released on Wednesday. Going by the visuals, we can be assured that we are in a great clash between good and evil. The good, needless to say is Mahesh Babu, and he looks majestic as ever in the teaser. The evil will be actor-filmmaker SJ Suryah who sends chills down our […]

The trailer for Angelina Jolie’s upcoming Netflix original film, First They Killed My Father was released on 2 August. Based on the 2000 memoir by Loung Ung, it chronicles the Khmer Rouge genocide that rocked Cambodia under the dictatorial regime of Pol Pot during the 1970s.

Shanker Raman’s first film as director – after stacking up several acclaimed credits as a cinematographer – is a visual treat. That is, if a relentlessly grim King Lear-esque account of an imploding family can be described as such. Vivek Shah’s outstanding cinematography in Gurgaon conjures up a sepulchral world in blacks, browns and greys. Like Raman’s script, which has been written by the director and three collaborators, Shah’s camera […]

If the flop-ridden Hindi film industry had its hopes pinned on the new Shah Rukh Khan starrer for salvation, then it’s time to unpin those hopes. Imtiaz Ali’s eagerly awaited “Jab Harry Met Sejal” is a lengthy, lumbering, baggy and pointless love story.

(Aamir at an award show, rare eh?) Later, we see him give a pep talk to […]
