I genuinely feel bollywood should stop making sequels I don't understand why bollywood is so obsessed in making sequels and ruining the original movie like directors don't have any script or work so they start making sequel even when there is no need. For ex Aashiqui 3 like why is it even necessary to ruin that gem . Why director is so obsessed with Kartik Aaryan ruining every original movie.Bro's whole career totally depends on sequels. There was no need for BB2 and 3. 5 5 replies
Humpty Sharma ki dulhania is the perfect example of how reboots and remakes should be made Rewatched Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania, which is one of the few movies from the masala genres I genuinely enjoy. Midway through the tone and presentation and the obvious homage given, the film is an absolute retelling of Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge and although some frames and scenes did take me back to DDLJ overall the movie feels so fresh and different despite it being basically the same story. The rooting and the cultural contexts of the quintessential Delhi Launda and throw in the modern punjaban treatment, I found the... 4 12 replies
My thoughts on The Roshans Documentary I have watched the Salim-Javed documentary, recently. I had to skip a lot. Even though I am a fan of their work, I still found the documentary very monotonous. It didn't add anything new or exciting; If you are already familiar with their work and consume a healthy dose of- Bollywood news, interviews etc. At least the YRF documentary had better editing. It was very well crafted with nostalgia bait and propaganda that made it very enjoyable. But A documentary for the Roshans? I fail to see the point.... 1 4 replies

Break Ke Baad (2010) Still Feels Fresh, But 1995 Felt Like a Different Era Just rewatched Break Ke Baad (2010), and surprisingly, it still feels fresh. The fashion, the styling, even the overall vibe—it doesn’t feel like a movie from 15 years ago. It’s crazy how little has changed in terms of clothing trends. But if we rewind another 15 years to 1995, the difference is night and day. Movies from the mid-90s had drastically different fashion, aesthetics, and even storytelling styles. It’s like the jump from 1995 to 2010 was a complete transformation, but from 2010 to now, it’s just... minor tweaks?... 1 4 replies

What is your favourite romantic gesture made in a Bollywood film? 1. Lootera (2013) The film's climax defines one of the most moving acts of love Bollywood has ever seen. Varun's (Ranveer Singh) method of repentance for breaking Pakhi's (Sonakshi Sinha) heart many years ago, is to instill hope within her, as well as the willpower to live. It redefines all those moments of genuineness that he shared with her - from learning the skill of painting, to implementing it on the masterpiece he had yearned to make, which turned out to be "the last leaf". 2. Veer-Zaara (2004) Veer... 2 43 replies
