In the same week, we have another frontrunner for worst film of the year. Review, Baaghi 4: hollywoodreporterindia.com/reviews/theatr…

Didn't mind Netflix's latest, Inspector Zende, a rare based-on-real-life film that chooses to be a goofy comedy. Helps that Manoj Bajpayee is in 'The Family Man' mode. Review: hollywoodreporterindia.com/reviews/stream…
A "silent comedy" that left me speechless, and an excellent contender for worst Hindi film of 2025. Review, Ufff Yeh Siyapaa: hollywoodreporterindia.com/reviews/theatr…
Terrible year for mumbai to not have an international film festival. Cinema literacy can't just be about history; time is linear, and it's almost like nobody wants us to see what's out there. Most anti-art this city has ever been.
Aranya Sahay's wonderful "Humans in the Loop" releases this week in theatres. Cannot recommend it enough. Had written about the film earlier this year: hollywoodreporterindia.com/reviews/theatr…

In which Rahul Desai extols "Woh To Hai Albela, Hazaaron Mein Akela" sensibility beautifully.

Re-posting new (personal) essay about unsatisfied parents and the children who grow up envying other parents: ottplay.com/features/jo-je…
It's a strange full-circle moment, when we start to resent our parents by 'comparing' them to other ageing parents (Sharmaji ke maa-baap?). Wrote a personal essay about this through the lens of two cherished Hindi movies from the 1990s: ottplay.com/features/jo-je…
Perfection.
Rahul Desai retweeted
"Metro... In Dino" is not Anurag Basu at his best. Messy is the norm: it's equal parts exasperating and exhilarating. But even at his most forgettable, he makes us remember. Review: hollywoodreporterindia.com/reviews/theatr…
Reviews this week: Secret of a Mountain Serpent (Hindi): hollywoodreporterindia.com/reviews/theatr… Songs of Paradise (Kashmiri): hollywoodreporterindia.com/reviews/stream… Vash Level 2 (Gujarati): hollywoodreporterindia.com/reviews/theatr… Param Sundari (B'wood): hollywoodreporterindia.com/reviews/theatr… The Roses (Eng): ottplay.com/features/the-r…
A rom-com that could've been an email. Review, Param Sundari: hollywoodreporterindia.com/reviews/theatr…
"Songs of Paradise" features Kashmir, music, Noor Begum, womanhood, history and words. But it's too sheltered and safe to be a decent biopic. Review: hollywoodreporterindia.com/reviews/stream…
Till life do us part. Enjoyed the heck out of THE ROSES, which star Cumberbatch and Colman in wonderfully destructive form. Also an oddly moving exploration of marriage. Review: ottplay.com/features/the-r…
Wrote about Vash Level 2, a well-crafted sequel to the Gujarati supernatural thriller Vash (which was remade as Shaitaan in Hindi). Not overproduced, not overwritten: early RGV vibes. Highly recommended. Review: hollywoodreporterindia.com/reviews/theatr…
Nidhi Saxena's "Secret of a Mountain Serpent" had its world premiere at the Venice International Film festival yesterday. Hypnotic film, great ambition, almost too artful for its own good. Review: hollywoodreporterindia.com/reviews/theatr…
