TVF Sixer is an incredibly accurate portrayal of the spirit of gully cricket that resides deep down within every cricket admirer in India.

The series does an excellent job of capturing the emotions that every Indian child who has played cricket must have felt at some point in their lives. One of the things that I appreciated most about Sixer was the attention to detail. From the cement pitches to the tribulations of bowling to hard hitting batsmen with and the tennis-ball-turned-cricket-ball contest. The acting by the entire crew felt really authentic. The series also did a great job of portraying the camaraderie and sense of community that is so prevalent in gully cricket, as well as the passion and intensity that players bring to the game.

Each character felt genuine and relatable, and I found myself rooting for them as if they were my own friends. The acting truly brought the story to life and helped to convey the emotions of the characters.

Overall, Sixer is a must-watch as it provides a fantastic window into the world of Indian street cricket. The series captures the spirit of gully cricket in India perfectly and allows the viewer to relive their own memories of playing cricket on the streets. I would highly recommend this series to anyone looking for a heartwarming and nostalgic look at their childhood.

The list of issues with the movie are way too long. But I'll try to restrict myself to the major ones.

First and foremost the plot of the film does no justice whatsoever to a topic that has the potential of churning out a blockbuster. The entire film revolves around a case in the Supereme Court that seeks permission to dredge a portion of the Ram Setu to create a new international shipping route that would make it easier for merchant ships to navigate the stretch of Indian ocean that lies between India and Sri Lanka.

The protagonist portrayed by Akshay Kumar and his sidekick team of researchers always manage to pull out anecdotal evidences without any solid research or fact finding.

Its almost as if the film desperately tries to play on the religious sentiments of its viewers to keep them interested but unfortunately the shoddy VFX and poorly shot action sequences overwhelm those efforts too.

Seldom do you come across a Bollywood splatter film that delivers an astonishingly gruesome and thrilling plot with such grace. Mind you, the this film is not your average run off the mill bollywood thriller flick.

The plot centres around Anuja (Kashmira Irani) and Neha (Swarda Thigle) who are teachers at a government school in Nagpur. The two are appointed by government authorities to conduct a census survey of nearby villages. As they are about to wrap up their assignment, they land up on the final house on their list - an outlandish mansion situated in the middle of nowhere. With no neigbours for miles, the house is completely cut off from human civilisation. In spite of their misgivings, Anuja and Sharda decide to enter the outlandish mansion, only to realize that things are not as they seem as.

Debutant director Pushkar Mahal has done an outstanding job and never for once do you get the impression that this is his first feature film. Every character has a complex backstory which we learn as the film progresses. The entire cast delivers an exceptional performance but the lead actresses Kashmira Irani and Swarda Thigle merit a special mention due to their riveting performance. The background score is spot on and magnifies the bloodcurling intesity of the film. Overall, this is a thrilling entertainer and definitely deserves more recognition. Watch this if you are looking for a fresh breath of air.
