Jayeshbhai Jordaar Starring Ranveer Singh, Shalini Pandey, Boman Irani, Ratna Pathak Shah, Jia Vaidya Directed by Divyang Thakkar Rating: ** There is so much that this well-intended well-targeted misfire could have done with the theme of female foeticide, if only it did not allow itself to be bogged down by unnecessarily goofy chase sequences and lengthy monologues on how important a ‘Pappi’(kiss) is to humanity. That’s where Ranveer Singh,bright bubbly and bouncy, lost me . His big monologue on the kiss is a total miss , and if I were this f | Click Here...
Review Of Hum Do Hamare Do: Lost Opportunity, Missed Quarrel
Hum Do Hamare Do (Disney-Hotstar) Starring Ratna Pathak Shah, Paresh Rawail, Rajkummar Rao, Kriti Sanon Rating: * ½ Not even the wonderful Ratna Pathak Shah and Paresh Rawal could rescue this dreary rom-com from sinking so low into the abyss that it’s hard to find one single moment of joy from the mirthless mess. On the premise level it sounds promising. Rajkummar Rao is Dhruv ,an orphan craving for a, awww, family. Ever-bubbly Kriti Sanon , the new-age Preity Zinta, craves for a Bunty with a large heart and a larger family. So what does Dhr | Click Here...

Review of Thappad: Unflinchingly hard-hitting
Thappad Starring Taapsee Pannu, Pavail Gulati, Maya Sarao, Geetika Vidya, Kumud Mishra, Ratna Pathak Shah, Tanve Azmi, Naila Grewal Directed by Anubhav Sinha Rating: ***** (5 stars) Let’s face it. Damaged humanism, fractured emotions and flawed relationships are the crux of Great Cinema. If there was no Auschwitz there would be no Schindler’s List. If Madhubala had not died so young would we still think her as being so unattainable? And if Romeo and Juliet had lived happily ever after would Shakespeare’s play have become a timeless classic? | Click Here...

Much to his horror and the outraged reaction of both the families, she files for a divorce. As simple as that. There are loud sniggers from people around the wife asking if she is not over-reacting. This is the reaction Anubhav Sinha’s fights in thi | Click Here...
