Mission: Majnu (Netflix)
Directed by Shantanu Bagchi
Mission Majnu is mentioned only once, or maybe twice, in the entire film. That’s the codeword for Raw agent Amandeep (Siddharth Malhotra)’s mission across the border.
Now the kaum in Pakistan in Indian cinema means green everywhere and the characters in skull caps addressing one another as ‘janaab’, which is not how people in Pakistan speak. Where is the normal conversation?
But yes, to the film’s credit, civilians in Pakistan are not demonized for once, only the politicians are. And they, I am sorry to say, come across as fools and clowns. No fault of the good actors Rajit Kapur, Shishir Mishra et al. who try hard to confer some dignity to their characters.
But it is a losing battle. When it comes to the depiction of Pakistan in Hindi cinema it always is: a losing battle, I mean. In every sense.

Mission Majnu is a thriller movie directed by Shantanu Bagchi starring Sidharth Malhotra, Rashmika Mandanna and Parmeet Sethi. It is written by Parveez Sheikh, Aseem Arora and Sumit Batheja. You can watch it on Netflix from January 20.
Mission Majnu is a Bollywood film for those first time viewers with its songs, sentimental characters and colorful, rhythmic vision in an action thriller.
This movie is in its original Hindi, so you need to take that into account.
Spies, intrigue, thriller and melodrama in this production with a political backdrop.
About the Movie Mission Majnu
We warn you: this movie promises more action in the tráiler than which it delivers later in the movie. However, it is entertaining… it uses a plot and treatment that is more or less lightweight at the beginning and transforms it into a more “serious” movie of political intrigue that gradually morphs into drama and even melodrama.

Code Name: Tiranga
Written & Directed by Ribhu Dasgupta
It is easy to be dismissive of a film that doesn’t break new ground or doesn’t pretend to. A straightforward sharply-written film about a terrorist extraction gone wrong, Code Name: Tiranga packs in quite a punch in the action sequences.
Shot in the rugged locations of Turkey, this is a slow-burn thriller. Writer-director Ribhu Dasgupta has an interesting track record. He started his directorial career with the intriguing Naseeruddin Shah vehicle Michael and went on to do the riveting series Yudh with Amitabh Bachchan.
Code Name: Tiranga misses out on the strong performances of his earlier films. The actors are authentic, many of them local Turkish, others veterans of Hindi cinema like Rajit Kapur and Shishir Mishra, but never rising above the script at any point.
The real hero in this film is the cinematography by Tribhuvan Babu Sadineni, which...

Bollywood actress Parineeti Chopra talks about doing action sequences with co-actor Sharad Kelkar and how she had bruises all over. She said: “Sharad Sir’s height is 7 feet and we had to do action in the film. Typically, the heroine’s work is to wear good clothes, look good, and do nice hair as if a luxurious and romantic sequence is going to be shot. Our director told me that I will have to perform action scenes and that too with Sharad, who is the enemy in the film.”
Parineeti added how Sharad’s heights used to create difficulty for her to perform stunts with him. “Now you see his height and my height and you can see he is a seasoned actor who has done so many action films for the past 10-15 years and when I had to do action scenes with him then one can understand.

‘Code Name: Tiranga’ director Ribhu Dasgupta opened up on why he thought of casting Bollywood actress Parineeti Chopra for his film and why he is more interested in making action films. He said he was impressed with her action skills that he saw while working with her in ‘The Girl on the Train’.
He said: “Before ‘Code Name Tiranga’, we shot ‘The Girl on the Train’ with Parineeti in London, and while shooting the same we had a very tight schedule and barely had any breaks. After every scene, she would come and hit us. She used to cram and sometimes try Karate on me and my Dop. Parineeti did a lot of action behind the camera, so we were like, ‘let’s make an action film with Parineeti only.”

Indian actresses Kalki Koechlin and Deepti Naval will star in the upcoming film ‘Goldfish’ directed by cinematographer Pushan Kripalani. The film will explore the subject of dementia.
The film follows the story of Anamika, a half-Indian half-English woman, who returns home to the UK, to deal with her mother’s dementia and the scars of her childhood.
“It’s very difficult to make independent cinema, as it does not get funded easily and so it’s taken me this long to get to make this film. I feel that dealing with larger questions is only possible by examining the smaller parts of human relationships. I feel that my job is to further the human conversation and this was a wonderful way to attempt to do that, Kripalani told Variety.

Hindi-language “Maja Ma,” starring Bollywood icon Madhuri Dixit Nene, is the first of many Indian original films from Amazon Prime Video, Aparna Purohit, the head of India originals for the streamer, has revealed.
The film is a Prime Video commission, as opposed to an acquisition. “We have been acquiring films, we have been putting films straight on our service and over the last two years, we put almost 60 films out and we also bought into co-productions.
