Nadaaniyan 2025
Thank god I’m a middle-working class citizen.
Nadaaniyan is far from perfect, but its social undertones and familial core stand out in parts. However, any sincerity is overshadowed by weak writing and an overreliance on privileged storytelling. Tired of the same pretentious, first-world problems of rich kids, audiences deserve better than yet another glossy, insular film that lacks depth.
Ibrahim Ali Khan delivers a grating, almost unbearable performance, proving that being a star kid alone isn’t enough. There is no…

Padmaavat 2018
“Rajputi Kangan Mein Utni Taaqat Hai Jitni Rajputi Talvar Mein.”
Rewatching Padmaavat, what stayed with me the most was the haunting silence that lingered long after the Jauhar scene. That moment is chilling—Sanjay Leela Bhansali captures it with such poignancy that it leaves an impact beyond words. This will always remain one of my favorite Bhansali films. Deepika Padukone as Padmavati is simply outstanding. The sheer power she holds in her expressions, her grace, and her unwavering resolve give me…

Chhaava 2025
“Tum Chandan Ho, Tilak, Hamare Maathe Ka”
Laxman Utekar’s Chhaava by Maddock Films is a grand, action-packed tribute to the Maratha Emperor, Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj, mixing Gladiator-style epic battles with a personal, emotional story. It’s not just about war—it dives into Sambhaji’s childhood scars, his struggles, and the weight of being a ruler shaped by bloodshed.
Vicky Kaushal absolutely owns the role. He’s fierce, intense, and completely in character from start to finish. Every action scene, every dialogue—he delivers with full…

Hum Aapke Hain Koun..! 1994
“Rang Layega Intezaar.”
Rewatching Hum Aapke Hain Koun..! by Rajshri Productions in cinemas during its re-release was overwhelming in the best way—I cried so much. Nostalgia aside, what truly struck me was how progressive and smartly crafted this film is, even by today’s standards. Sooraj Barjatya’s storytelling radiates warmth and sincerity, but beyond that, his attention to detail is remarkable.
For a 90s Hindi family drama, the picture subtly pushes boundaries. Beneath its grand wedding celebrations and feel-good romance between Prem…
