DocuBay, the streaming platform specializing in documentaries, is pushing boundaries with its latest original film “Bad Toys Inc.,” which explores the burgeoning sexual wellness industry in India.

The documentary, produced by Black Iris, plunges into the world of sex toy sales and custom products in a country often perceived as conservative.

Girish Dwibhashyam, COO of DocuBay, revealed that the idea for the film came from its content team’s research. “We were surprised to see the market size and the widespread social acceptance and new startups which have come up in the segment with custom products,” he told Variety. The company chose Black Iris to produce the film, citing its ability to handle the adult topic with grace and aesthetic sensibility.

Richa Sahai, director-producer at Black Iris, said, “Gender and sexuality has always been of interest because you get to go right under the skin and get the deepest insight...

[Warning: The below contains Major spoilers for Evil Season 4 Episode 5 “How to Fly an Airplane.”] Kristen’s (Katja Herbers) really going to regret going on that trip to Rome—and not because she may have almost been killed by a ghost pilot while she, David (Mike Colter), and Ben (Aasif Mandvi) transported a relic (the box holding what was thought to possibly be part of Christ’s cross but is a fake) to the Vatican. Kristen’s already having a rough time, having just left her husband Andy (Patrick Brammall) at a psychiatric treatment center; he has no idea what’s going on but was found, his heart stopped after he injected himself rather than his daughter, as Leland (Michael Emerson) tried to brainwash him into doing. The doctors will reevaluate after two ...

The new episode of ‘Shark Tank India 3’ witnessed a pitch by a men’s sexual wellness brand ‘Sukham’, however, the founders faced disappointment as they failed to secure a deal with the Sharks. Hailing from Delhi, founders of ‘Sukham’, Vivek Krishna, Ananya Sarkar, Nitin Kumar and Ishan Pant, appeared on the entrepreneurial reality show, and talked in depth about their brand, which started in 2022.

Their products and treatments are based on Vajikarana, and are divided in two categories — firstly for the needy – products and treatment plan for erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation, and secondly for the greedy – ayurvedic lube date night shot and others.

The products are a blend of classical medicines and modern lifestyle solutions. The brand has 20,000 plus customers. They asked for Rs 1 crore for 3.33% equity.

Vivek then went on to describe about the brand’s journey, and the sales. He said that the formulations are based on Indian materia medica,...

Charithra Chandran is not in Season 3 of “Bridgerton,” the British star has confirmed, but she has a range of other projects coming up.

Chandran, who is of Indian heritage, will produce a reality TV series based on ancient Sanskrit-language text the “Kama Sutra.” While the text was primarily designed as an art of living guide, many of the film and TV interpretations of it have focused on its sexual aspects.

“I’m working on a reality TV show, which is inspired by the ‘Kama Sutra,’ [for] which I would be just behind the scenes. I would just be producing obviously, not on the show,” Chandran told Variety. “The ‘Kama Sutra’ is actually an ancient Hindu text, but in the West it has this not-so-pleasant, or positive, reputation and connotation. And it’s about taking ownership back of things that belong to us and our culture, and actually showing the beauty and...

“I ought to be thy Adam,” says the Creature in Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein. “But I am rather a fallen angel.” It’s the basis for every mad scientist story: You try to create man and end up with a monster. Fuck around with playing God and see what happens. Poor Things wants to add a few what-ifs into the Prometheus-myth mix. What if the Creature wasn’t a hideous Adam, but a gorgeous Eve that enticed every man who came into contact with her? And, like Shelley’s existentially miserable reanimation,...

Indian cinema has a long history of exploring erotic themes and sensuality. Since the nineties, many filmmakers have produced bold and artistic movies that showcase sexual expression and desire. These movies have a large and loyal fan base, who appreciate not only the erotic scenes, but also the creative storytelling and direction. Today, eroticism is more accepted and mainstream in popular movies and web series, featuring well-known actors and actresses.

In this article, we included hindi, malayalam, tamil, telugu movies but more focuses on Bollywood, which has the widest reach and influence. So here are the top 10 hot steamy erotic Indian movies.

10. Nasha (2013) Nasha Trailer

Nasha (2013) is a Hindi erotic thriller film written and directed by Amit Saxena and produced by Sangeeta Ahir. The film stars Poonam Pandey and Shivam Patil in the lead roles. The film is about a young woman who is addicted to drugs and her relationship with a teenage boy.

New Delhi, Aug 2 (Ians) Bollywood celebrities are left in “shock” at the demise of renowned art director and production designer Nitin Chandrakant Desai, calling it a “heartbreaking news”.

Desaiwas found hanging in a case of suspected suicide at his N.D. Studios here, early on Wednesday, official sources said. He was 57.

Condoling the death ofDesai, Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri wrote in a social media post: “I am heartbroken and sad beyond control to learn about my dearest friendNitinDesai’s death. A legendary Production designer, a visionary who made Nd Studio…Nitin not only loved Pallavi and I, he always guided me even in films we didn’t do together. Why Nitin, why?”

“Some ofNitin’s films: Salaam Bombay, 1942 A Love Story, Khamoshi, Kama Sutra, Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam, Mission Kashmir, Lagaan, Devdas, The Legend Of Bhagat Singh, Munnabhai Mbbs, Swades, Mangal Pandey, Slumdog Millionaire, Jodhaa Akbar..Now you know why he was a legend,...

New Delhi, July 30 (Ians) Courts in India make a criminal swear by the Bhagavad Gita before he deposes in a case, or at least, that is what I have seen in films. The Gita, if one understands rightly, is the ultimate belief one can swear on to tell the truth. A criminal may still lie, but our judiciary and our films continue to repose faith in this holy book.

Since our film folk swear by the Gita, why won’t our Central Board Of Film Certification (Cbfc)? The Cbfc has passed the Hollywood film ‘Oppenheimer’ with a scene showing the lead pair indulging in sex while the male actor is shown reading from the ‘Bhagavad Gita’!

No, not Vatsyayana’s ‘Kama Sutra’, unless the Cbfc thought it is all the same!

I don’t know why the makers thought of doing this stunt, but, maybe, the Cbfc did figure it...

“Joyce Prigger: World’s First Billionaire Pornographer,” reads a marquee at the top of Minx‘s Season 2 premiere. Sure, sex sells, but that seems a mite fast, no — especially given the way things stood at the close of Season 1?

As it turns out, yes. The signage, as well as a fur-clad Joyce working the red carpet at a film premiere, is part of a nightmare Doug is having at the start of the series’ sophomore run. (A run, by the way, that might not have happened had Starz not swooped in to revive the comedy after HBO Max killed it.

One of independent film’s key players, Ray Price, died July 16 at the age of 75 from heart failure after a long battle with cancer, his long-term partner Meg Madison confirmed.

Talking to Price about movies, past and present, was an exhilarating sport that could take a while. He knew his stuff — no one loved movies more — but more than anyone during the great indie decades of the ’70s, ’80s, and ’90s, he was a respected innovator who thought outside the box. He began as an exhibitor in San Francisco and moved on to marketing, releasing, and distributing movies, leaning toward the outrageous in how he lured audiences to sample challenging fare.

“Ray, while being a defiantly singular individual, was also emblematic of a bygone age of independent film,” Magnolia Pictures co-ceo Eamonn Bowles wrote me in an email. “From theatre chain owner to distributor, exquisite marketer, and production exec, he...

Ray Price, a respected producer of indie filmmaking, died July 16 from heart failure after a long battle with cancer. The news was confirmed by his long-term partner Meg Madison. He was 75 years old.

Price launched his film career in 1972, managing the Berkeley storefront theater the Rialto, and went on to build with Allen Michaan Renaissance Theaters, an independent art film chain that became one of the largest (33 at its peak) in the Bay Area and was later sold to the Landmark Theatre circuit.

A tough negotiator and exacting exhibitor, under Price’s stewardship, Renaissance Theaters were renowned for redesigning marketing materials, from posters to press books — designs that fledgling distributors often adopted when the films hadn’t found success in other markets.

At a time when most top arthouse distributors focused on established auteurs from Europe and Asia, Renaissance Theaters exploded those norms by programming new American directors like Martin Scorsese and John Cassavetes.

Ray Price, an indie film producer and marketing veteran, died on July 16 of heart failure after battling cancer, his longterm partner Meg Madison confirmed. He was 75.

During his career in film, Price was president of Francis Ford Coppola’s production company American Zoetrope and First Look Pictures and a marketing and distribution exec for Landmark Theatres, Trimark Pictures and 2929 Entertainment. He also supported up-and-coming filmmakers like Tran Anh Hung (“The Scent of Green Papaya”), Gurinder Chadha (“Bhaji on The Beach”), Carl Franklin (“One False Move”), Allison Anders (“Gas Food Lodging”) and John Sayles (“The Secret of Roan Inish”).

“Ray, while being a defiantly singular individual, was also emblematic of a bygone age of independent film,” said Magnolia Pictures co-ceo Eamonn Bowles in a statement. “From theatre chain owner to distributor, exquisite marketer, and production exec, he always sought out novel ways of approaching things. He truly was a rebel...

Ray Price, the respected indie film innovator who served as president of American Zoetrope and First Look Pictures and as a marketing and distribution executive for companies including Landmark Theatres and Trimark Pictures, has died. He was 75.

Price died Sunday at Whittier Hospital Medical Center from heart failure after a long battle with cancer, his longtime partner, Meg Madison, said.

Throughout his career, Price displayed an encyclopedic knowledge of film, mentored generations of executives and leaned toward the outrageous in the ways he lured audiences to sample challenging movies.

Along the way, he championed filmmakers including Carl Franklin (1992’s One False Move), Allison Anders (1992’s Gas Food Lodging), Tran Anh Hung (1993’s The Scent of Green Papaya), Gurinder Chadha (1993’s Bhaji on the Beach) and John Sayles (1994’s The Secret of Roan Inish).

As obnoxious as the phrase “cancel culture” might be, it’s not unreasonable to assume that some skits might not have passed the smell test when Hulu’s History of the World Part II was in development.

But David Stassen, who served as showrunner on the eight-episode series, said there wasn’t a single conversation where someone said, “We shouldn’t do this.”

“Everyone thought of the best ideas, and we worked on them,” Stassen said Saturday during the show’s Contenders TV panel in Hollywood. “Hopefully, the best rose to the top.”

Actually, there was one skit that didn’t make the final cut. Ike Barinholtz — who joined the panel Saturday with Stassen and star Wanda Sykes — said they wanted to show a couple having sex right as the volcano erupted in Pompeii,...

Self-love and sexual pleasure are intertwined, yet many of us have a hard time voicing our desires and even acting upon them. Many of these conversations are often had behind closed doors or left to hushed whispers in a public space, leading to feelings of embarrassment and shame.

But, why should we bite our tongues when talking about pleasure? In fact, studies show it can actually be beneficial...

History of the World, Part II — — General Grant heads out in search of a drink; After the Russian Tsar is executed, Schmuck Mudman and his family head to Moscow; Shakespeare’s Writers Room; Invention of Fire; The Real Kama Sutra. Commentator (Nick Kroll), Commentator (Wanda Sykes), and Commentator (Ike Barinholtz) shown. (Photo: courtesy of Hulu) Over the course of his illustrious career as a writer, director, producer, and actor, the legendary Mel Brooks reveled in his role as an equal-opportunity offender — he wasn’t afraid to make fun of anyone or anything. Of course, in this day and age, that could get you in trouble: Many people think Brooks couldn’t get away with making some of his most famous movies, like Blazing Saddles, in today’s culture. But that hasn’t stopped Brooks and an all-star team of comedians from making a TV series “sequel” to his 1981 film, History of the World,...

Over 40 years after "History of the World Part I" hit theaters, a sequel is finally arriving in the form of a TV series on Hulu. Appropriately titled "History of the World Part II," the series follows in the footsteps of the legendary Mel Brooks by looking back at history with a contemporary comedic lens. Taking cues from the original movie, the series jumps around to different historical periods and events, such as the Biblical times of Jesus Christ, the unfolding of the Russian Revolution, the struggles of ending the Civil War, and many more. While some of the sketches are ongoing threads spread across eight episodes, there are also smaller bits involving Noah's Ark, Kublai Kahn, William Shakespeare, and Galileo.

What's great about "History of the World Part II" (watch the trailer here) is how it combines the classic style of Mel Brooks comedies with the contemporary humor of its creators.

We haven’t come to re-litigate the fiery ending of “Game of Thrones,” in which Emilia Clarke’s Daenerys Targaryen rides in on her dragon and torches King’s Landing, behaving tyrannically in ways antithetical to the ethical character built scale by scale over the previous eight seasons. The Mother of Dragons comes to a shocking and lethal end, but House Targaryen still has narrative juice to be squeezed. The highly-anticipated prequel series “House of the Dragon,” based on George R. R. Martin’s “Fire and Blood,” is set two centuries prior, when another battle of succession roils the powerful, incestuous, platinum-haired dragon-keepers.

“House of the Dragon,” or “Meet the Targaryens,” has the girl power backbeat that drove previous characters like Daenerys, Arya Stark and Ygritte. Spunky heir Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen has the dragon-riding goods and inner fire to rule. However, in this patriarchal hierarchy, lacking a winkle weakens her...

The time has come for Hulu to release its list of everything coming and going in the month of August.

This will come in handy after the “Bachelorette” season finale in late July leaves us in desperate need of something else to watch.

In August, a new episode of Hulu’s horror anthology “Into The Dark” arrives, in which a group of social outcasts who are stuck in weekend detention are confronted by the school’s legendary hauntings.

As fall approaches, Hulu is revamping its collection with a slew of new titles.

Jill Duggar certainly knows any occasion can be a learning opportunity. Take her 5th wedding anniversary, for example. She and husband Derick Dillard celebrated their special day with a romantic getaway to Branson, Missouri. The Counting On star documented everything from their meal at The Keeter Center and viewing of Toy Story 4 to, yep, their bedtime activities. Cuddled up in their bed and breakfast, the couple—they have kids Israel David Dillard, 4, and Samuel Scott Dillard, 23 months—played a seductive (yet "clean!") card game and read the Kama Sutra, all of which she posted on Instagram last night. "We stayed at a bed and breakfast, then hung out at Silver Dollar...
