A Fairy Tale For Kids.
A Kamaleshwar Mukherjee directorial. This movie is an adaptation of the novel by the same name. Unlike the book, this movie is only for children. The brillkance of this flick is not even close to that of the book. Still, a decent watch.

Savage.
Raman Raghav 2.0 marks the comeback of Anurag Kashyap after the debacle of Bombay Velvet. Initially, it was touted to be a biopic of Ramanna-the infamous serial killer of Mumbai. As the producers refused to provide him more than 5 crores, he went on to make a modern day crime saga with Ramanna's killer antics. Instead of keeping the same story, Anurag diluted the story instead, whatwith the innovation of Raghav as a drug addict policeman whose characterisation was complex and dirty. The movie is expressed in chapters just like his masterpiece, 'Black Friday'. Nawazuddin steals the show with the realistic portrayal of Ramanna. Vicky Kaushal as Raghavan is equally good. He gets enough screen time to showcase his talent. This movie is really a game changer for him. He manages to get noticed in spite of sharing the screen space with Nawaz. RR 2.0 marks the acting debut of Sobhita Dhulipala and the casting director, Mukesh Chhabra. Kashyap keeps it raw wifh the locales of slum areas and offbeat songs. He also puts a complex angle about how actually Ramanna is attracted to Raghavan as they both shared something in common. During the second half, it gets a little boring with unnecessary elongation of certain scenes. It already received standing ovasion in International Film Festivals. The above line speaks everything. Maybe it's not his best,but definitely it's a sure shot Winner.

Sambit Gupta reviewed Te3n
Te3n Point Five.
Te3n is a thriller which is directed by debutant Ribhu Dasgupta. Starring Amitabh Bachchan(John Biswas) and Nawazuddin Siddiqui(Martin Das) in lead roles, it also stars Vidya Balan and Sabyasachi Chakraborty in key roles. The story revolves around the kidnap and murder of Amitabh's grand-daughter. Big B's only aim is to achieve justice and find out the main culprit. Surprisingly, the same old crime is repeated after 8 long years and this time the victim is Sabyasachi's daughter. The same process of kidnapping is followed. Hence, Big B couldn't afford miss this golden chance to catch the criminal. As a result, he seeks the help of a female cop(Vidya Balan) and an ex-policeman(Nawaz), who is presently, a priest. What follows is ample suspense accompanied with lots of twists and turns. Top notch performances by the star cast helped the movie but the pace is very slow for a suspense thriller. Nevertheless, it is an awesome watch, whatwith an unpredictable climax.

Wooww Randeep Hooda.
After Mary Kom, Omung Kumar comes back with another biopic which is equally emotional and patriotic. Randeep Hooda(Sarbjit) proves his acting prowess once again. His performance would definitely send chills down your spine. Aishwarya, as Sarbjit's sister who fights for her brother for 22 years, is decent. In spite of loopholes, this film is still very much watchable. Randeep's performance was lauded by classes and masses alike. Truly, he deserves a National Award. The film focuses on the real life incident when Sarbjit was found near Pakistan border. Hence, the Pakistan army arrested him and put charges on him of being a terrorist from India. Then begins his sister's journey and sacrifice to prove her brother innocent get him out of jail.
Though the director stayed away from showing the politics surrounding Sarbjit, as it could have created tension among many people, still it makes up for a decent watch.

Dabangg Female Version.
Aftr Ghajini and Holiday,A.R.Murugadoss comes up with Akira-who fights against all odds and sacrifices her freedom and career for the so called society-filled with corruption in the form of ACP Rane(Anurag Kashyap) and others...
Dialogues r praiseworthy...Performances deserve a big Thumbs Up....The protagonist is NOT the 'one-man-army' type,unlike the other stereotypical flicks....
The second half lags a bit,whatwith certain faults,bt those r easily passable....An interesting watch,thnks to its non-love story plot and only two songs(placed during crucial moments)....
What follows is an inspiring and emotional ending....Must watch...Specially fr every grl...
Note:-The BEST thing in this movie is ANURAG KASHYAP
Warning:- Don't expect a NEERJA...
