Adil Hussain
Sandeep Vanga & Adil Hussain’s fight intensifies: After Sandeep’s remarks on replacing Adil with ‘AI’ in ‘Kabir Singh’, the latter responds
Filmmaker Sandeep Reddy Vanga's name being attached to controversies is now a regular occurrence, where there are barely any dull moments on any comments he keeps making statements about multiple things depending on what the impending issue is. For the uninitated, the recent saga has been about actor Adil Hussain, who is best known for his role in English Vinglish - and also went on to play a small role in Vanga's highly controversial but highly successful film, Kabir Singh. Recently, Hussain was asked about being associated with the film and his answer took many by surprise. | Click Here...
Adil Hussain On Sandeep Vanga Reddy Threatening To Replace The Actor With AI In Kabir Singh
When actor Adil Hussain declared publicly that he regretted doing Sandeep Vanga Reddy’s Kabir Singh he didn’t know what he was getting into. By now Vanga is known to hit out , if not abuse, anyone who criticizes his cinema. It therefore took the volatile Vanga no time at all to threaten to replace Adil in Kabir Singh with Artificial Intelligence. When I reached out to Adil he didn’t sound frightened. “I just woke up. I’m in America. I never knew my statement would become so controversial. He(Sandeep Reedy) probably didn’t like it. I’ve received calls from | Click Here...

Delhi Crime 2 (Netflix , 5 Episodes) Starring Shefali Shah, Rasika Dugal, Tillotama Shome, Aakash Dahiya, Adil Hussain, Rajesh Tailang, Denzil Smith, Yashaswini Dayama Director: Tanuj Chopra Rating: **** ½ When I first saw the second season of Delhi Crime my initial reaction was relief.

Review Of Meal: A Haunting Short Film On Communal Tensions
Starring Adil Hussain,Ratnabala Bhattacherjee, Arun Mukherjee, Avishek Jain Directed by Abhiroop Basu Rating: *** It was by chance that I saw this highly relevant . though a wee self consciously radical, short film about a very troubled family in Kolkata fighting inner and outer demons. While this family doesn’t seem particularly happy on its own, the communal tension outside—and we hear angry religious chants and rioting outside—makes it worse. This is 11 minutes of unrelenting tension that clamps down on our throats and refuses to let | Click Here...
Review Of Nirvana Inn: Adil Hussain Shines In An Eerie But Not Scary Shining
Nirvana Inn(Cinemapreneur) Starring Adil Hussain, Sandhya Mridul, Rajshree Deshpande Written & Directed by Vijay Jayapal Rating: ** An expectably polished performance from Adil Hussain, which conveys deep echoes of Jack Nicholson in Stanley Kubrick’s horror classic The Shining, cannot salvage this weak atmospheric eerie misfire about an Assamese boatman serving a ‘debt’ sentence in the chilling tranquility of Manali. Once we get to know that the guests arriving at the inn are not what they seem to be, the narrative merely seems to | Click Here...

Adil Hussain Learns To Peddle Manuel Rickshaw For Prateeksha
Adil Hussain plays a rickshaw puller in his new film Pareeksha. One recalls two great actors Balraj Sahni and Om Puri playing rickshaw pullers in Bimal Roy’s Do Bigha Zameen and Roland Joffe’s City Of Joy. But Adil, whom we have seen in stellar form in films like Unfreedom, Parched and Angry Indian Goddesses, has sourced neither of the two great performances for Pareeksha. “I do recall the great Balraj Sahni’s performance in Do Bigha Zameen. But I didn’t go back to it before doing Pareeksha. That’s not how I function now. But let me tell you, I think Balraj Sa | Click Here...
I will keep acting till I die – Adil Hussain

Review of ZEE5’s Pareeksha: A Heartwarming Unabashed Tearjerker
Pareeksha( Zee5) Starring Adil Hussain, Priyanka Bose, Shubham Jha, Sanjay Suri Directed by Prakash Jha Rating: **** The heart is completely in the right place. Pareeksha director Prakash Jha’s best in years, is a heartwarming unabashed tearjerker. It reminded me of one my favourite Shabana Azmi starrer Bhavna (1984) where the mother of a child goes to extreme lengths (prostitution) to educate her son. In Pareeksha Adil Hussain as the all-giving father Buchi an honest righteous rickshaw puller, turns a thief to accrue money for his son’s education in a pos | Click Here...
Chilling moments from Netflix’s drama Delhi Crimes
Netflix's latest Hindi original was the cop thriller Delhi Crime, which was based on the infamous 2012 Nirbhaya gang-rape case that shocked India to its core. It stared Shefali Shah, Rasika Dugal, and Adil Hussain, and the series was surely a chilling retelling of all the events and the investigation that transpired after the brutal incident. The Delhi Police, like most law enforcement organisations around the world, was burdened by a reputation as complicated as that of the city it serves to protect. A lot was written about its handling of the case - it was praised for having nabbe | Click Here...
Review of Netflix’s Delhi Crime – Unbridled and unrelenting – the untold story behind the most brutal crime Delhi has ever seen
16 December, 2012. This day in our recent past is imprinted on the collective conscience of the country as a whole and Delhi in particular. It is an ugly scar on the psyche of every Indian – unfading, undiminishing, indelible. It was the day when the human race plummeted to a new low in demonstrating the savagery it was capable of. It was the day when India lost the right to look the world in the eye. It was the day when New Delhi, seeking to establish its dominance in world politics, gained dominance as the ‘Rape Capital of the World’ instead. 16 December 2012 was the d | Click Here...

What an ordinary man does when faced with extraordinary circumstances proves the strength of his character and the weave of his moral fibre.

Ayan, the protagonist of Tigers, ZEE5’s glittering cinematic tour de force, proves himself of the latter ilk.
