Vicky Vidya Ka Voh Wala Video movie review: Starring Rajkummar Rao and Triptii Dimri, the comedy film has exactly five lines that make you chuckle.

Jigra movie review: Alia Bhatt's performances usually have at least a couple of distinctive notes. Here, badass replacing vulnerability, those edges are blunted. Jigra becomes a stretch, of both patience and credulity.

Zindaginama review: Not all six are equal in depth and complexity, but it doesn’t stop us from acknowledging the importance of these kinds of stories, which go a long way in keeping informed conversations around mental health in play.

Rajkumar Hirani and Vijay Varma spoke to The Indian Express at the Screen relaunch on their craft, the numbers game and why scale doesn't matter

Bandaa Singh Choudhary movie review: Arshad Warsi is such a pleasing performer that he manages to lift even the worst things he is in. Playing a central character usually gives a good actor something to do. Not here.

Do Patti movie review: There's enough in Kriti Sanon-Kajol film for a juicy, substantive drama. But the unpacking turns more into an unravelling, mainly because the writing is shallow, and the characters lack depth.

Kajol and Kriti Sanon on their journey, the changing role of women in the industry, trolling and why super stardom is dead. The session was moderated by Vandita Mishra, National Opinion Editor, and Shubhra Gupta, Film Critic.

Mithya The Darker Chapter review: The first season wasn't perfect, but it had a degree of freshness. The new season is such a drag.

Singham Again movie review: It's all so same-old in Singham Again, starring Ajay Devgn, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Arjun Kapoor, Ranveer Singh, Deepika Padukone, that even the new locations don't help. Neither does the great epic Ramayan.

Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 movie review: Kartik Aryan's Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 suffers from the same things that Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 did: stereotypes instead of characters, forced humour which refuses to land, and tasteless lines bordering on the risible.
