Karanveer Khullar , Gillian Pinto , Khushboo Upadhyay

Synopsis: ‘Nirmal Anand Ki Puppy’ depicts the monotony of Mumbaikars as well as the modern-day relationships that require equal amount of contribution and compromise from both parties. Overall, this film will undoubtedly touch your heart due to its simple approach and high emotional quotient.

27 Aug 2021 | 2 hrs 19 mins

Amitabh Bachchan , Emraan Hashmi , Rhea Chakraborty , Siddhanth Kapoor , Dhritiman Chatterjee , Raghubir Yadav , Annu Kapoor , Krystle D Souza

Synopsis: Chehre aims to make a social commentary on the state of criminal justice in India. The idea at the outset is interesting, but it stops at just that. The film turns out to be a preposterous courtroom drama that feels longer than any longest-running lawsuit.

Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar

19 mar 2021 | 2 hrs 6 mins.

Parineeti Chopra , Arjun Kapoor , Jaideep Ahlawat , Neena Gupta , Raghubir Yadav

Synopsis: ‘Sandeep and Pinky Faraar’ is one of those neo-noir films that set out with a promise to engage, entertain and educate by slowly unraveling its layered subtext. But with its preposterous execution and frustratingly slow pace, it’s the audience who might want to escape, much before Sandeep and Pinky.

Mera Fauji Calling

12 mar 2021 | 2 hrs 8 mins.

Sharman Joshi , Bidita Bag , Mugdha Godse , Zarina Wahab , Ranjha Vikram Singh , Mahi Soni , Shishir Sharma

Synopsis: In a nutshell, ‘Mera Faulji Calling’ is a human-interest story that leaves an impact despite its glaring flaws.

Time To Dance

12 mar 2021 | 2 hrs 2 mins.

sooraj pancholi , Isabelle Kaif , Waluscha De Sousa , Rajpal Yadav , Sammy John Heaney , Atul Sharma

Synopsis: For its 113 minutes’ runtime, ' Time To Dance' offers a bucketful of superb dance performances to keep you engaged throughout.

BellBottom review – Akshay Kumar has flare as a Bollywood Bond

A look at Indian politics elevates this crowd-pleasing blockbuster, in which movie god Kumar lives out his super-spy fantasy

I n its native India, this Akshay Kumar vehicle has become the first major Bollywood production to enter tentatively reopening cinemas. (UK multiplexes reopened with Salman Khan’s Radhe.) It’s easy to understand why: informed by the multiple plane hijackings that disrupted India and Pakistan’s early 1980s impasse, Ranjit Tewari’s film is a reassuringly traditional masala mashup that hands its enduring star a juicy lead role. Kumar’s NatSec nabob Anshul Malhotra bounds on screen to the loudest fanfare heard since James Bond’s, an illustrious intro only undercut by the revelation of his character’s codename: BellBottom, derived from Malhotra’s preference for circus-tent trousers. As a back-to-cinema-business proposition, it’s already one joke up on Tenet.

What follows is a teachable example of how Hindi films are routinely constructed to keep the movie gods on their pedestals. Malhotra is swiftly established as multilingual, a chess champion, a devoted son and a virile husband. (“Don’t tell me you’re a priest as well,” yells a friend as he dashes to a wedding.) By the first song’s fadeout, there’s no doubting who our hero is, or why he’s the first call when a separatist group with ISI ties seizes control of an Indian Airways flight with 210 passengers on board. We might only question the long, extraneous flashback to Malhotra’s spy-agency training; the answer is that it allows the leading man to indulge his 007 fantasies. Still, there have been worse Bond pastiches of late, and Kumar on this suave, precise form is worth indulging.

Though his foes are textbook action-pic nogoodniks – flushing hostages’ asthma inhalers down the loo – the script also taps into internal Indian politics. Centred around Lara Dutta’s steely Indira Gandhi, the debate within the film elevates BellBottom over the facile flagwaving of the recent Shershaah . A playful ding-dong on the soundtrack, too, as composer Kulwant Singh Bhamra conjures up proggy wigouts while Tewari leans into BellBottom’s caper elements. The finale looks like an amped-up Raid on Entebbe, as Kumar maps chess moves on to a Dubai runway and his trousers dodge a late-breaking sandstorm. Yes, it’s absurd, especially the last-reel Margaret Thatcher lookalike. But BellBottom always feels more movie than propaganda – a mission undertaken to offer audiences a good time after the longest and worst time.

'Maidaan' Review: Ajay Devgn strikes gold, yet again

'maidaan' movie review: a biopic on the life of pioneering football coach, syed abdul rahim, the ajay devgn film immortalises the unsung hero..

Listen to Story

• 'Maidaan' will release in theatres on April 11 worldwide
• The film is a biographical drama on the life of football coach, Syed Abdul Rahim
• Ajay Devgn plays the lead role in the film

Cast & Crew

Release Date: 9 Apr, 2024

India celebrated its 'golden era' in football, even earning the moniker of 'Brazil of Asia' in the 1950s. During this time, with players like Chuni Goswami, P K Banerjee, Peter Thangaraj, Tulsidas Balaram, Jarnail Singh, and Pradyut Barman, the team ended in fourth place at the 1956 Olympics and won gold at the Asian Games in 1951 and 1962. While they played hard on the turf, Syed Abdul Rahim was the man who created and coached this team.

'Maidaan' , starring Ajay Devgn, aces the job of celebrating the passion and love of 'Rahim saab' towards the sport and how he put India on the world map.

However, the film is not jingoistic or only highlights his big feats - it's more about the roadblocks he faced during his stint. It's about how he fought politics, media animosity, and regional biases to build a team that could fight against the best.

'Maidaan' is about a family that stands by this man's deep passion, asking him to choose football rather than spend his last few months with them. It is about how ' jazbaa ' (enthusiasm) is all that you need to fight the toughest opponents on any field. And when you are 'that' good at what you do, you do win over your naysayers one day.

Director Amit Ravindernath Sharma is used to making 30-second advertisements, and 'Maidaan' gives him a chance to helm something more than 300 times longer. He did falter in the first half of the 180-minute film, as the slow pace tests your patience. However, in the second half, he headbutts it out of the park with an engaging screenplay and some delightful camera work.

Special mention to sports directors of photography, Fyodor Lyass, Tassaduq Hussain, and Christopher Reed. Given football is a sport of movement, probably for the first time, go-pro cameras have been used in a feature film, adding to the nail-biting experience. The matches are gripping and make you cheer for the players and even shed a tear at their failure.

Also, the best biopic or period film is the one that makes you want to Google more about it. 'Maidaan' scores full points with that, as many in the audience were slyly searching more about the players or even the tournaments that Syed Abdul Rahim coached, while in the theatre.

After '83', this film has also struck gold when it comes to casting. The team not only got actors who looked like the original players but also trained them to play like professionals. Chaitanya Sharma aka Slow Cheeta and Amartya Ray stand out as PK Banerjee and Chuni Goswami. So do Davinder Gill and Tejas Ravishankar as Jarnail Singh and Peter Thangaraj, respectively. Priyamani, as Rahim's wife, may have just a few scenes, but her pleasant screen presence and highly expressive face do leave an impact.

Coming to Ajay Devgn , the superstar is on a roll after 'Shaitaan' emerged as a sleeper hit earlier this year. He sheds his 'Singham' personality and embodies the part of the coach so naturally. He is known to emote through his eyes, and he does that in 'Maidaan' so well. Even with a quiet demeanour and subtle personality, he stands his ground with his players and the authorities. The film also allowed him to tap into many shades of a human personality, as Rahim tries to perfect the part of a husband, father, and coach. He is also marvellous in the emotional scenes, especially when he sees the love of his life - football - slipping away from him.

However, we would have to give a yellow card to the dialogue and music department of the film. Apart from the 'Team India' song, none of the AR Rahman compositions really stand out in the film.

Given that sports films are high on adrenaline, we also expected some more dialoguebaazi that could pump things up. There is an SRK-esque '70-minute' coach diktat like 'Chak De', as Rahim talks about the power of 'one' as a team and position in the game. But given Rahim's soft personality, the makers may have chosen to underplay it, keeping things quite non-dramatic.

However, one of the sequences where Ajay's character calls out a senior sports journalist, Roy Choudhury (played brilliantly by Gajraj Rao), and uses Elvis Presley's statement - 'Don't criticise what you don't understand. You never walked in that man's shoes' - did have the theatre whistling.

' Maidaan ' is not only a treat for football enthusiasts but also quite a delight for movie lovers. It immortalises the unsung hero, after whom India never qualified for the Olympics. Rahim, in one scene, says ' Kismat haathon se nahi, pairon se likhi jaati hai (destiny is written by foot, not hands)'. While it was the truth back then, you realise in reality, luck favours the brave, and SA Rahim was truly Indian football's Braveheart.

" From the sound of it, Bhaiyya Ji will be an action thrill ride with plenty of dramatic stakes as Bhaiyaaji tries to avenge those he loves.

Bhaiyya Ji Trailer

It's manoj bajpayee against the world.

The trailer for Bhaiyya Ji depicts a large group of men from a village standing in a circle, surrounding Bhaiyaaji, who is lying unconscious on the ground. One man tentatively prepares to hit him with a metal pole, but Bhaiyaaji wakes up, and the men flee in terror. Bhaiyaaji, bleeding from a number of wounds, grabs a cigarette, stands up, and swings around a shovel as everyone flees and the credits roll, with plenty of slow motion thrown in for good effect.
