Junooniyat24 Jun 2016 | Meena Iyer

Cast:Pulkit Samrat, Yami Gautam, Hrishitaa Bhatt






Raman Raghav 2.024 Jun 2016 | Mohar Basu

Avg. Readers Rating:

4.3 / 5

Cast:Shahid Kapoor, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Alia Bhatt, Diljit Dosanjh






Luv U Alia17 Jun 2016 | Mohar Basu

2.2 / 5

Cast:Chandan Kumar, Sangeetha Chauhan, V Ravichandran, Bhumika Chawla

Do Lafzon Ki Kahani09 Jun 2016 | Renuka Vyavahare

3.6 / 5

Cast:Amitabh Bachchan, Nawazuddin Siddiqui, Vidya Balan (special appearance)






Project Marathwada03 Jun 2016 | Mohar Basu




The actors do a fine job of salvaging the situation. Be it Seema Biswas or Dalip Tahil, the film’s supporting cast shines. But mostly, the film rides on Om Puri’s shoulders.

2.8 / 5

Cast:Om Puri, Seema Biswas, Dalip Tahil, Kunal Seth

Cast:Radhika Apte, Satyadeep Mishra, Yashaswani Dayama






Veerappan26 May 2016 | Meena Iyer




In all fairness, Sandeep brings Veerappan alive and the National Award winner Usha as Muthulakshmi is convincing. Though not in top form, RGV does redeem himself to some degree.

Avg. Readers Rating:

2.8 / 5

Cast:Arvind Swamy, Himanshu Sharma, Ekavali Khanna, Aman Uppal






Azhar12 May 2016 | Meena Iyer




Emraan bears no physical resemblance to Azharruddin. However his mannerisms—the blinking of his eyes and swagger add to a knockout performance. Watch Azhar for him.

3.1 / 5

Cast:Emraan Hashmi, Prachi Desai, Nargis Fakhri, Lara Dutta, Gautam Gulati, Kunal Roy Kapur, Karanvir Sharma and Manjot Singh






Buddha In A Traffic Jam12 May 2016 | Mohar Basu




Quoting from the film, the best thing that can be said about Buddha in a Traffic Jam is that we love the ideas Vivek brings forth but we are not in love with them. It lacks outrage and treads familiar ground.

2.3 / 5

Cast:Arunoday Singh, Anupam Kher, Mahie Gill, Pallavi Joshi






1920 London06 May 2016 | Mohar Basu

4.2 / 5

Cast:Manoj Bajpayee, Jimmy Sheirgill, Prosenjit Chatterjee, Parambrata Chatterjee,






One Night Stand06 May 2016 | Mohar Basu




Even with a compelling idea, One Night Stand remains singularly superficial. Jasmine and her writer Bhavani Iyer, manage to whip up only a half-baked, predictable plot ridden with clichés.

2.2 / 5

Cast:Pawan Kalyan, Kajal Aggarwal, Sharad Kelkar, Mukesh Rishi, Tisca Chopra






Ki & Ka01 Apr 2016 | Meena Iyer




Kareena is terrific, Arjun, endearing. But Balki’s writing is inconsistent. A few scenes leave you misty-eyed, but for the most part, the stock situations are banal.

3.6 / 5

Cast:Kareena Kapoor Khan, Arjun Kapoor, Swaroop Sampat, Rajit Kapur






Rocky Handsome25 Mar 2016 | Renuka Vyavahare

Mastizaade29 Jan 2016 | Meena Iyer




Honestly, this film looks like a better version of last week’s Kyaa Kool Hain Hum 3 because it has Sunny instead of Mandana Karimi. Otherwise, it is just as blah.
