Taaza Khabar Review: Bhuvan Bam And Shriya Pilgaonkar's Series Is A Desultory Affair

Saibal Chatterjee | Friday January 06, 2023

Taaza Khabar Review: The central conceit of the show may be unusual but, in terms of the characters and the plot details, Taaza Khabar is as stale as yesterday's news. It has little that could be described as fresh off the oven.

Aar Ya Paar Review: Aditya Rawal Does His Best To Carry The Weight Of The Story

Saibal Chatterjee | Friday December 30, 2022

Aar Ya Paar Review: Sumeet Vyas, Ashish Vidyarthi and Dibyendu Bhattacharya hit the right notes for the most part. Sadly, their collective presence in the cast fails to lend credence to the proceedings notwithstanding the flashes of emotion and drama strewn across the narrative.

Saibal Chatterjee | Saturday December 24, 2022

Cirkus Review: Ranveer Singh can bring a great deal of natural gusto to a role. Here, too, he does pretty much the same, but the two roles that he is stuck with are awfully insipid.

Saibal Chatterjee | Friday December 16, 2022

Saibal Chatterjee | Friday December 09, 2022

Salaam Venky Review: The film is certainly not in the same league as Anand as a film about a terminally ill man, but it does have the meat to be a substantial addition to the canon.

An Action Hero Review: Ayushmann Khurrana And Jaideep Ahlawat Lend The Film Power

Saibal Chatterjee | Friday December 02, 2022

An Action Hero Review: The film bustles with coiled energy every time Jaideep Ahlawat is on the screen as a toughie responding to a rough, ready and rustic notion of justice and self-worth.

Dharavi Bank Review: Suniel Shetty's Web Debut Does Not Deliver Real Thrills

Saibal Chatterjee | Friday November 25, 2022
