Rocket Boys (2022– )

The story and bonhomie of father of Indian Nuclear & Space Program

[10/10 · 24 March 2023]

I write very few reviews and I just could not hold back from writing a review for this show. It's amazing especially for history buffs like me to know the events and the historical figures upclose and know about their circumstances and what they went through to achieve impossible targets with limited budgets and resources. This is factually accurate and shows the reality in a sophisticated way. This show does not have the usual bollywood over the top vibe and that makes it more appealing. Kudos to Jim Sarbh & Ishwak Singh for staying true to their portrayals. The way they were acting in the show was superb. A must watch for every Indian.

Daredevil (2015–2018)

A very Realistic Superhero, one can relate to

[10/10 · 24 September 2019]

First and foremost, when we watch the SuperHero stuff, then, we kind of overlook the acting part but not here. This show has the best actors in it. Lead by Charlie Cox aka The Daredevil and the Supreme Villain - Wilson Fisk. These two actors are the pillars of this show. Apart from that, the action is so realistic that you would think that you can also pull it off. And the rest of the cast supports the story and twists in a great way. You will feel connected to each character apart from Karen Page's. The season 1 was great and season 2 was okayish but wait the season 3 is the greatest. All's well that ends well.

Kabir Singh (2019)

Outstanding Acting by Shahid

[9/10 · 13 July 2019]

I just wanted to say that this movie is a piece of art and we should take it like that. There has been a lot criticism of this movie about the character and the way he treats people. Putting that all aside and seeing it as a movie with no bias then you will enjoy it to the fullest. His acting is so natural that you will fall in love with this guy purely on his ability to portray such an extreme character. Go watch it and you will not regret it.

Kesari (2019)

Intense and Engaging till the very end.

[9/10 · 23 April 2019]

A tale of mythological proportions where 21 soldiers take their last stand against the invading army of 10000. The dialogue delivery is brilliant to convey the emotions of the particular scene. Akshay Kumar does full justice to the role as well as other supporting actors. One of the best war movie ever made.

Uri: The Surgical Strike (2019)

Learn a new word for the better- Surgical Strike

[10/10 · 30 January 2019]

This is movie is high on emotions after the aftermath of the Uri Terrorist attack on on Army base. There were several tense days after the attacks and everyone in India was thinking what will our new(MODI)government will do. There was a possibility of another war but our PM took a path less travelled with zero collateral damage. We all (Indians) were very happy with these surgical strikes which indeed was a good lesson for the unruly neighbours(Pakistan and their proxy terrorist set ups). This movie provides much needed visual representation of all the things which happened during those days and time. It is a must watch if you want to know about recent big events around the world coz it was one of them and was even in the news which almost led two nuclear countries to the brink of a war.

Kal Ho Naa Ho (2003)

A story of love that can encompass ages, boundaries

[9/10 · 8 January 2019]

This is one of the best movie of all the actors involved. It can be seen number of times and still you will not get enough. Must watch and feel it, live it.

Tumbbad (2018)

Do not label it as Indian, It is a movie of another kind

[10/10 · 7 January 2019]

The international audience will definitely like it coz we as Indians were not aware of the Mythology behind this movie but it worked brilliantly for the story of the movie. I will rate it highly because of its background score, story and acting. One of the best horror movie of all time and a must watch for horror genre lovers.

Satyameva Jayate (2018)

Powerful Acting & Direction: A must watch

[8/10 · 29 October 2018]

This movie is all about the Persona of John Abraham and his acting. He looks amazing in front of the camera. Manoj Bajapai is an acting powerhouse and the scenes between these two are extraordinary. Maybe there are a lot of cliches but the acting of these two men will make you watch it till the end. This movie is for the ones who like the power of cinema without a bias or comaparison.

Awarapan (2007)

If Jannat made him a star then this movie made him an Actor

[10/10 · 12 August 2018]

This movie is all about Emraan and his acting and how he fights his inner demons. It is really interesting to see this story of a gangster doing the right things. It feels like a classic cult movie of its own genre. It has the best songs and music of that time and even today if you listen to any of the song it will not sound old. Treat to watch.

Chalo Ishq Ladaaye (2002)

If you had a fun-loving Nani or Dadi like the one in this movie, then, its a must watch

[10/10 · 17 March 2018]

I liked this movie coz the Grandmother in this movie had a lot in common with the way my dear nani lived her life(she is no more). So, this movie has a lot of sentimental value but inspite of all that, we being Indians can totally relate to the fact how much our grandparents want us to be good kids, get good jobs and then marry a good boy/girl. But this movie has a twist in the sense that the grandchild wants to kill(not really) his grandmother and loves her deeply within. And in order to achieve his funnily ill-intentions, he makes a deal with an actress. But it all ends up in a laughter riot.

Train to Busan (2016)

Zombie Lover's Delight 10/10 (5 star rating)

[10/10 · 22 October 2016]

This is the best "Zombie" movie ever made without excessive special effects. Its the only well made emotional movie against the background of zombie breakout. It really connects with each character of the story and also teaches high moral lessons in the time of dire consequences. It clearly shows each characters mindset and how they react to the situation. The protagonist's (Father-Daughter)story is very emotional and touches all the right chords of feelings. The director has used emotions so well that it really makes a mark in terms of direction and cast is superb with the little girl's innocent & pure acting skills. It is a journey which you would like never to stop and a must watch for Zombie Lovers.
