Deepa Gahlot picks 10 Bollywood horror flicks to mark Friday the 13th.
You can watch some of the Oscar nominated films on OTT.
Here's a quick look at the Bollywood movies list of 2026. Lots of interesting titles and genres coming right up!
The Raja Saab is a poorly judged effort to appease to the lowest hanging fruit, and is not sincere in its ambition to entertain, notes Arjun Menon.
There's a lot of OTT entertainment in store this February. Joginder Tuteja lists the interesting line-up of movies and series coming up.
January releases also feature Pawan Kalyan, the Fukrey folks, Vir Das, and the Border stars...
Though Vash Level 2 doesn't deliver an absolute knock-out experience we would expect from a horror sequel, it has got enough zing to keep the franchise hurtling forward, raves Mayur Sanap.
'People ask me about my biggest action sequence; this is it, because it involved two giants of Indian cinema.'
'It is daunting, for sure, because you're rowing upstream.'
This Superman likes a cuppa of hot cocoa, trusts people around him quite easily, gets hurt by social media trolls (the '#Supershit' particularly irks him), and admits to 'screwing up' all the time, discovers Mayur Sanap.
'Not many films have a reference to a creature who talks, emotes, acts in a film. And Munjya is doing all of it.
As a nothing-better-to-do weekend watch, Jurassic World Rebirth is fine. But the franchise is losing steam, observes Deepa Gahlot.
If you're a fan of the Transformer films already, you will be delighted with a hearty dose of nostalgia here but... Mayur Sanap adds a caveat.
What keeps the momentum going is Kajol's fully committed performance that elevates this generic material to a surprising degree of watchability, feels Mayur Sanap.
The love story of Shakuntala and Dushyant is so familiar, from textbooks, comics, stage and screen versions, that it has become part of our cultural DNA. If a film-maker thinks he can make it his own by producing a 3D version with excessive CGI, he achieves nothing but overkill, notes Deepa Gahlot.
If not for Tamannaah, it would have been an ordeal to sit through this uninspired horror fable, notes Arjun Menon.
Salman Khan's Sikandar may not be the spectacle one hoped it would be. Many decades ago, Sohrab Modi made the historical extravaganza Sikandar that continues to inspire audiences today.
There's not any effort -- not even a smidgen -- to resurrect a superstar on the wane in Sikandar, sighs Sukanya Verma.
'When you try to do something that's not been tried before, nobody likes that.'
If Naam was made today, there wouldn't even have been enough audiences to boo it out of the halls, observes Deepa Gahlot.
Kraven The Hunter feels like a missed opportunity, a film that could have offered a fresh take on a complex character but settles for mediocrity, observes Sonil Dedhia.
Four Indian nationals, including a young woman, lost their lives and several others were injured in a tragic multi-vehicle road accident in the US state of Texas during the Labour Day weekend.
There are so many loopholes in this lazily scribbled plot, it could be a different movie and still as crummy, observes Sukanya Verma.
Divya Nair recommends that non-Vijay fans save their money and wait for GOAT to drop on Netflix instead. At least you can fast forward and get to the climax faster.
'Being the Rs 100 crore girl definitely has a nice ring to it. This will get me to work harder every time I face the camera.'
The Kalki Universe might just take off, but it will still owe its gee-whizery to Hollywood movies, observes Deepa Gahlot.
'When I started to step into the West in 2006, I believed India was not going to be the back end.' 'I understood that no film-maker wants to believe that they are outsourcing their creativity to a low-end place.' 'The application of technology in the hands of our Indian artistes is identical to any of our artists in the West.' 'Nobody in the world can say this shot was done in India and that in London.'
Malayalee From India is trapped within its self-serving corniness and refuses to break free in the process, observes Arjun Menon.
The Hindi dubbed (badly) version of the Tamil hit Aranmanai is out, and it turns out to be lengthy, noisy and mostly tedious, observes Deepa Gahlot.
External Affairs Ministry spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said India is closely monitoring the security situation in that country.
Despite its horror movie momentum, what draws us to Aditya Sarpotdar's narrative is Bittu's homely universe and sweet struggle to confess his feelings to Bela, not Munjya's malevolent antics.
Modern Masters aims to showcase Rajamouli's enigmatic career and paints a context of what makes him the singular voice that defined his generation of film-makers, for millions, observes Arjun Menon.
If Salaar is just a compendium of violent action, and an overuse of CGI, it would be a tedious watch, sighs Deepa Gahlot.
Baahubali has generated an enterprise of television spin-offs, video games, graphic novels and what not, but a memorable Game Of Thrones it is not, observes Deepa Gahlot.
'Nobody likes preachy stories. When you lace it with humour, it works.'
We take a look at 10 recent awe-inspiring prosthetic aesthetics that actors have rocked for their respective roles in films.
Operation Valentine follows the templates of similar Air Force narratives to deliver some rousing, harmless fun time, observes Arjun Menon.
The fatal flaw of Fast X is that it's trying to be smarter than it really is and the result is a convoluted mess with nothing novel at display.
The ambition shown in the world-building of this universe is highly commendable and something that promises a big-screen spectacle. Mayur Sanap hopes that Nag Ashwin is not swayed by the excessive use of CGI and his rooted vision will shine with a strong and unique storyline.
