On February 4, 2005, 20 years ago, two films were released simultaneously. While Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Black mastered the marque, Pritish Nandy Productions’ capricious and captivating Shabd is remembered within the film fraternity for the infamous incident wherein the late and much missed Pritish Nandy’s plucky daughter Rangita asked Shah Rukh Khan, Gauri Khan to leave preview screening meant only for the cast and crew of Shabd.

Sometimes, an interesting premise fails to carry a film to a luminous conclusion. Shabd has it all: a truly striking plot, great looking cast, terrific locations and mesmeric cinematography. Yet it misses the bus, stops short of delivering a genre-defying wallop in the jaded face of the box-office.

Shabd proves one thing for all times. Merely packaging a different plot in gloss cannot compensate for the absence of intrinsic credibility in the proceedings. Debutante director Leena Yadav displays a flair for framing her shots...

What are some of the movies that come to mind if somebody mentions the word “siblings”? To be specific, movies with plots that hinge on the sibling dynamic instead of just having siblings in it. If you pick from the crime drama genre, there are Deewar, A Better Tomorrow, and Fiza. If you move towards the action genre, there’s Main Hoon Na, Karan Arjun, and Warrior. If you look at horror films, you’ll get Crimson Peak, Evil Dead Rise, and Nope. If fantasy is your thing, then there’s The Chronicles of Narnia franchise, the Spy Kids franchise, and Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events. If you are wondering about step siblings, then you have Cruel Intentions and Step Brothers. And if you want to go into the realm of taboo, you can try out Close My Eyes.

Farah, who originally choreographed the song, reminisced about the shooting of this song, saying that like Shoaib, she too wasn’t well at that time.

“I choreographed this song for ‘Dil Se.’ We filmed it in Ladakh during the winter. Near that frozen lake, especially for the last portion– there was literally no oxygen.

The immigrant dream might be Western civilization’s greatest export. Since the days of colonialism and long since, people all over the world dream of moving to the U.K., Europe, or U.S. to start a new life and change their family’s legacy.

Reality shines through day-by-day; that supposedly civilized countries are plagued by their own issues, that predominantly white spaces aren’t always safe for people of color, that moving to a new city or country anywhere in the world means struggling to build that life and questioning the whole endeavor.

All of this comes to light in Rajkumari Hirani’s “Dunki,” a story ostensibly about the treacherous trek across nations, but more intriguingly about the dream dangled at the end of those treks — and whether it’s a dream at all, but a lie.

The title “Dunki” refers to “donkey-flights,” or the practice of people migrating...

Shah Rukh Khan has rejected a Rajinikanth film. That’s it, that’s the news for the day. It is surprising as well as shocking since who says no to Anna, right? However, what is more surprising it that the actor did not give a second thought as well, before rejecting the role since he was very sure about one thing – not doing cameos anymore.

If you don’t remember clearly, then we might brush your memory a little. In the past few years, Srk has done way more cameos than films. This includes his presence in Brahmastra, Rocketry, and Tiger 3. In fact, he is even expected to have a cameo in Suhana Khan’s next film, which is being directed by Sujoy Ghosh.
