‘Shamshera’ fails as a movie on many levels. Apart from a good cinematography, the movie doesn’t have anything that would keep the audience engaged.

The Shamshera jukebox is full of original songs and that’s the best part of the album which makes it refreshing. “Of course, Shamshera is a period action entertainer. So, the music also had to fit in that period so that it’s not jarring. The film has very different kinds of songs. It’s got a good […] More
‘One man’s peace is another man’s chaos’- the movie has some mind-blowing dialogues and references.
