April 2024 Box Office Expectations: 400 Crore With 9 Releases ( Photo Credit – YouTube )
Another month has arrived, and another set of releases is scheduled for this Eid month. The biggest one, of course, is the massive Ajay Devgn Vs Akshay Kumar clash at the April 2024 box office with Maidaan and Bade Miyan Chote Miyan. However, if all goes well, then the two films might put up a strong show, bringing a massive 300 crore collection on Eid.
However, despite the 300 crore cumulative collection, the two Eid releases might not beat Salman Khan‘s best Eid performance of 320.24 crore by Bajrangi Bhaijaan in 2015. The film was helmed by Kabir Khan and is the biggest Eid release till date.

InterviewManush, the cinematographer of 'Gunjan Saxena: The Kargil Girl', says he grew up in a home where discussions on politics, art and society were common.Sowmya RajendranManushnandan is over the moon. The 35-year-old cinematographer, who calls himself a 'total Chennai boy', is delighted that his latest film Gunjan Saxena: The Kargil Girl has been getting good reviews and word of mouth. The film, starring Janhvi Kapoor, released on Netflix last week and is about Indian Air Force officer Gunjan Saxena who flew in the Kargil War. For Manush, who grew up in a home where discussions on politics, art and society were common, an interest in cinema happened organically. The son of late writer and journalist Gnani and feminist writer As Padmavathi, Manush says that he directed two short films, both based on Tamil writer Ashokamitran's stories, when he was only 11 years old for a Children's Day programme on Doordarshan.

Starring Janhvi Kapoor, Pankaj Tripathi, Angad Bedi
Directed by Sharan Sharma
The fierce nepotism debate ends right here. Young Janhvi Kapoor spits that golden spoon out of her (privileged) mouth and throws herself into playing India’s first female airforce pilot with the fierce dedication of a one-armed wrestler hurling the opponent to the ground by dint of sheer dedication.
Throughout this wonderfully articulate and engaging film, Jhanvi’s Gunjan Saxena wrestles with male prejudice. Repeatedly being forced to arm-wrestle a fellow-soldier so that her smirking superior may feel… well…superior! There is quiet determination on those melancholic eyes of Sridevi’s daughter when she enters a smoky room with men dancing to Choli ke peeche kya hai.

There are triumphant training montages and Top Gun moments, but this Netflix biopic of a fighting female helicopter pilot elicits smart performances
Bollywood’s pivot to streaming continues with a biopic that presents as an obstacle course of sorts. How to dramatise the trajectory of Flight Lieutenant Saxena, the first woman to helicopter into combat for the Indian Air Force, without generating some inanely gender-flipped Top Gun rerun, and/or slipping into meatheaded militarism? Writer-director Sharan Sharma’s response is to follow the tried-and-tested contours of the biographical star vehicle – he avoids the structural risks of last month’s Shakuntala Devi – while relying on heart and good humour to lift his film over the aforementioned pitfalls. Little has been certain about 2020, but distaff applications for even administrative Air Force positions are surely set to go through the roof.

ReviewThe film makes you uncomfortable and emotional without obnoxious jingoism that’s common in army films.Geetika MantriScreengrab/Netflix In an ideal world, anyone can aspire to be anything. Some progressive families try to treat their children equally, irrespective of gender. But the world, more often than not, does not agree. A child, who was told she could soar, finds herself in a predicament when she learns that the society around her doesn’t think so. She fights back, but she is no superwoman – how many times must she prove herself despite being able? Many women would relate to this story. In a society that defines roles for us almost from the minute we are born, the struggle to swim against the tide can be difficult, exhausting and continuing forever. And the Janhvi Kapoor-starrer Gunjan Saxena: The Kargil Girl does an efficient job of showing that without unnecessary angst or chest-thumping.
