She - Imtiaz Ali?s diversion from love struggles with its own ?identity? after a terrific start. Starting with a bang and ending with a whimper.

The Story of She

Bhumi Pardesi (Aaditi Pohankar) a simple middle class Marathi Mulgi works as a police constable. Bhumi the only earning member of her family of an ailing mother and a younger sister. The simple boring and unexciting life of Bhumi takes a paradigm shift when she is asked by senior officer Jason Fernandez (Vishwas Kini) to come out of her shell and work as an undercover cop to nab a cocky drug...

ReviewThe show is supposedly about a woman exploring her sexuality, but sadly we see her completely from male points of view.Saraswati DatarBhumika Pardeshi is no ordinarily named girl. Bhumika in Hindi means a role or a character and pardeshi/pardesi means foreign land or foreigner. Both are rather appropriate for a story where a police constable, Bhumika aka Bhumi (Aaditi Pohankar), is forced by duty and circumstances to play a sex worker. She is playing a part and gets sucked into a world that is foreign to her. But after a crackling first episode, She sadly flounders indecisively between genres, unsure of just how far it can go in uncharted waters. Produced by Tipping Point and Window Seat Films for Netflix, She marks film director Imtiaz Ali's debut as a web series creator. Imtiaz also serves as the film's co-writer along with Divya Johry. When Sasya (Vijay Varma), a notorious drug dealer,...

What starts off seeming to be a take-off on Mani Ratnam's most recent political drama "Chekka Chivantha Vaanam" turns into an engrossing crackling cat-and-mouse drama about a political empire in Maharashtra where siblings squabble for power after the patriarch (Atul Kulkarni) is gunned down.

Straightaway, "City Of Dreams" encircles a cluster of power-hungry characters whose motives are never cogent, let alone comprehensible. There is always a sense of more going on here than meets the eye.

Writers-directors Nagesh Kukunoor, Rohit C. Banawlikar peel off layers after layers of subterfuge to reveal a system of governance that thrives on corruption and deception.

Deftly inter-woven, the plot moves in mysterious ways embracing characters who are at once cunning and naive. The aforementioned wounded politician's daughter Poornima (a very lovely and emotionally empowered Priya Bapat) fights it out with her out-of-control debauched brother Ashish (Siddharth Chandekar).

The two actors play off against one another with controlled acerbity,...
