Jubilee Review: A Splendid & Captivating Tale Of T Jubilee Review: A Splendid & Captivating Tale Of The Hindi Film Industry! Watch It!
 
Lootera meet Bombay Velvet
 
Udaan Director Vikramaditya Motwane showcases the making of Indian Cinema with an exquisite nostalgia. A saga of dirt beneath the red carpet where everyone is self-centred, transactional and tainted. Jubilee is set during Indian Independence, when film studios were the power centre with their control of stars and everything else.
 
Roy Talkies owners Srikant Roy and Sumitra Devi are the front runners of the industry and set the agenda. Their new movie introduces a new actor Jamshed Khan but there are lots of twists and turns as they fail to bring him on the big screen. Srikant’s trusted confidant Binod Das becomes the superstar on the foundation of a dark secret. Jay Khanna and Niloufer arrive in Bombay due to post partitions riots and charter into a new league.
 
Ambition, greed, dreams, money, fame, jealousy, mystery and politics rule the human behaviour. All characters in the Black & White era have shades of grey. The Soviet & American Cold War, rise of Ceylon Radio, Partition and other events leave an imprint of on the India cinema.
 
Prosenjit Chatterjee, Aparashakti Khurana, Ram Kapoor are very impressive but Arun Govil, Sidhant Gupta and Wamiqa Rabbi are the most impactful. Sidhant Gupta is the find of the series with his style, charm and debonair swag. Aditi Rao Hydari continues her purple patch and is impeccable as she portrays an entire range of emotions with finesse and grace!

Almost Pyaar With DJ Mohabbat Review: Almost Aweso Almost Pyaar With DJ Mohabbat Review: Almost Awesome!

Anurag Kashyap Is Back!

Amit Trivedi Musical
Anurag Kashyap’s Manmarziyaan Touch
Refreshing Love Story
Hard Hitting One-Liners
Fresh Casting
GenZ World

Anurag Kashyap is back with a smart and contemporary next generation love story. Set in Dalhousie and London, the film captures two parallel stories of naievete and confused teenagers - played by same actors. The characters have are fans of artist DJ Mohabbat, played smartly by Vicky Kaushal. 

The Dalhousie track features fierce school girl Amrita spending time with a simpleton Yaqub. Sneaking out for a concert unleashes a storm that they did not imagine. Londoner rich brat Ayesha is besotted by shy DJ Harmeet, who rebuffs her. She tries too hard to win him and he lands up in a big trouble without any fault of his. Apart from DJ Mohabbat, both couples are victims of patriarchy, societal pressure. Love Jihad, homophobia, social media and teenage innocence are important backdrops. 

Alaya F shines and does full justice to both her contrasting characters. Karan Mehta’s rawness works to his advantage. Vicky Kaushal continues from his earlier avatar in Anurag Kashyap - Amit Trivedi gem Manmarziyaan but his soliloquies fall flat. Loved the references to Gulzar, Ghalib and Amrita Pritam - like Rumi in Imtiaz Ali movies. Modern relationships and real connections shun labels. Love is the only anti-dote to hate. 

Amit Trivedi’s music is wonderful and it slowly grows on you. Mohabbat Se Kranti, Duniya and other songs are beautiful with quirky and Hinglish lyrics to impress GenZ. But this is no DevD or Manmarziyaan. 

Almost Pyaar is an impressive movie despite its flaws. Worth a watch!

Nita Ambani

Thank you Nita Ambani for Nita Mukesh Ambani Cultural Centre - one of the grandest centre to preserve and promote India’s artistic and creative heritage in cinema, music, drama, literature, folklore, science, spirituality, arts and crafts. 

India needs this! A global centre that is befitting to India’s rich heritage, culture and tradition. And expect Ambani to do it in style! Nita Mukesh Ambani Cultural Centre has a 2000 seating capacity grand theatre, a 4-storey art house, Pavilion - a museum-like convertible area of 52,627 sq. ft for art shows and exhibitions, and a studio theatre.

I am really happy that this centre envisions to become home not only to the finest talent from Indian cities, but also from our small towns and remotest villages.

Special appreciation for the impeccable and graceful performance of ‘Raghupati Raghav Raja Ram’ by Nita Ambani at the inauguration. Applause! 

And yes, waiting to see Feroz Abbas Khan’s ‘The Great Indian Musical: Civilization to Nation’ - India’s biggest ever musical!
