‘Kalank’ was a dream project of the late Yash Johar (Karan Johar’s father) and Karan practically left no stone unturned to shatter his dream into pieces. Despite spending a bomb on the sets in recreating the 1946 era, superb VFX and rich production values, including the cinematography, this tale of eternal love story is outdated. […] More
Director Robbie Grewal handles the subject very well but the paper-thin story line and screenplay, especially in the first half, is below average and very tedious. John Abraham acts quite well and all his get-ups are truly amazing. He is well supported by Jackie Shroff, Mouni Roy and Sikandar Kher. The locations are just perfect […] More
Based on the Spanish film ‘The Invisible Guest’, the novelty in the story is apparent. Amitabh Bachchan and Taapsee Pannu have acted superbly and throughout the film, their conversation scenes are brilliantly executed. Amrita Singh has done a decent job too. Aided by an excellent screenplay and good dialogues, the film is mainly meant for […] More
Director Zoya Akhtar deserves applause for handling the hip-hop culture in Mumbai very sensitively. Ranveer Singh is in top form and is simply amazing in his role. Alia Bhatt equally delivers a fine performance in her relatively smaller role. Siddhant Chaturvedi is brilliant. Vijay Raaz as Ranveer Singh’s father is fabulous. All other artists too […] More
The film is excellently shot at what looks like real war locations; the India–Pakistan border, the LOC (Line Of Control) and other areas resembling military posts and terrorist camps were recreated in Serbia. The reason best known to Indian authorities, the unit could not get any permission to shoot the film in India! All the […] More
Ranveer Singh delivers a fantastically energetic performance and is a delight to watch. He clearly excels in all romantic, comedic and action scenes. Sara Ali Khan is completely wasted and has only 2-3 scenes, and she is barely visible in the second half. Amongst the huge assembled star cast, Ashutosh Rana definitely stands out. There […] More
The rich production values, excellent VFX, special effects and photography contribute to the quality of the movie. Shah Rukh Khan acts quiet well, but not enough to deliver a good entertaining film. He does not look as effective as the dwarf, as Kamal Hassan looked in ‘Appu Raja’. Furthermore, his romantic angle with Katrina Kaif […] More
Undoubtedly, the movie receives the highest rating for the great costumes, superb photography, good production values, well-chosen sets and locations, spectacular drama and upbeat background music, nevertheless, it is plagued with a poor screenplay, no storyline and horribly written dialogues. Director Acharya’s skills are dull and the pathetic plot is terribly executed. What starts off […] More
Saif Ali Khan receives a meaty role and has the looks required to represent a businessman, but he lacks the guts to portray the notoriousness of the venture capitalist. Director Chawla manages to mix all the masala ingredients and set a Hollywood standard, despite being backed by average writing at most places. While the story […] More
Touted as a fun family saga, the movie works primarily because of its crazy sense of humour, done in an unusual way aimed at stirring uncomfortable situations. The reactions to situations, the social message and the uneasy moments make it worthwhile to watch as the audience easily relates to those scenes. Free from stereotypes and […] More
Though pure work of fiction, the court scenes are worth mentioning as well as the locations of Uttarakhand. Shahid Kapoor, Shraddha Kapoor and other supporting cast performances are strictly average. Shree Narayan Singh drags the first half and makes it unbearable to watch. The lack of originality in the story combined with the poor dialogues […] More
