The player was competitive & tenacious then than the other fellow. Here too, the player is a better option! I likedContinue reading “Reply 1994”

The suggestion was for days but due to the murder mystery I kept on postponing it. But it is really good. With the cast as Nawaz & Radhika Apte is was going to be gripping. What follows is the drag when the politicians interfere & the investigation has to be abandoned. The end is superblyContinue reading “Raat Akeli Hai”

Instead of menopause then the mother is having a late pregnancy. She is diagnosed on the birthday of her lost son!
