Image - YouTube Do Deewane Seher Mein Review – A Smooth First Half, But a Romance That Fades Away Intro:  Do Deewane Seher Mein  is a  2026 Hindi romantic drama  written by  Abhiruchi Chand  and directed by  Ravi Udyawar . The film stars  Siddhant Chaturvedi  and  Mrunal Thakur  in the lead roles. Released in theatres on  20 February 2026 , the film is now streaming on  Netflix . It explores a relationship between two individuals dealing with personal insecurities and emotional struggles in an urban setting. Review (90 Words):  I was a bit sceptical to watch this box office flop, but Mrunal Thakur and Siddhant Chaturvedi made me give it a try. The first half is smooth and has some cute and funny moments, but after that, the film loses its grip. The story feels stretched, and the conflicts don’t always work. Siddhant does well, especially with his speech-related character trait. However, the romance lacks strong music,...

Image - Prime Video Maa Ka Sum Review – A Fresh Idea That Starts Strong but Loses Direction Intro:   Maa Ka Sum  is a  2026 Hindi-language drama series  streaming on  Amazon Prime Video from April 3, 2026 . The show stars  Mona Singh, Mihir Ahuja, Angira Dhar,  and  Ranveer Brar . Built around a unique mix of mathematics, relationships, and everyday life, the series explores the bond between a mother and her son while placing them in a modern, slightly unconventional setting. Review (90 Words):  I picked  Maa Ka Sum  mainly for Mona Singh and its intriguing title. The story starts on a very interesting note but loses direction midway. The mother-son equation works well, though the son’s character feels overdone and slightly unrealistic for his age. His portrayal feels more exaggerated than grounded. The series tries to do a lot, which makes it uneven at times. That said, it still feels different from the usual crime and revenge dram...

Image - YouTube Bhooth Bangla Review – A Nostalgic First Half, But a Confused Second Half Intro:  Bhooth Bangla  is a  2026 Hindi comedy horror film  directed by  Priyadarshan , starring  Akshay Kumar, Paresh Rawal, Rajpal Yadav, Tabu, Jisshu Sengupta,  and  Wamiqa Gabbi . The film brings together a familiar mix of horror, comedy, and chaos, attempting to recreate the old-school Priyadarshan style. Currently running in cinemas, the film tries to balance spooky elements with humour and ensemble performances. Review (90 Words):  I was expecting the old Priyadarshan magic with Akshay Kumar, Paresh Rawal, Asrani, and Rajpal Yadav, but I was only partially satisfied. The first half is fair and has good comic timing that will make you laugh. The performances work well initially, though Wamiqa Gabbi feels underused. However, the second half feels like a completely different film, with the story going too much into imagination and losing direction. O...

  Image - YouTube Toaster (2026) Review – A Quirky Dark Comedy, Average Overall but Saved by a Surprise Character Intro: Toaster  is a  2026 Hindi black comedy thriller  directed by  Vivek Daschaudary , starring  Rajkummar Rao  and  Sanya Malhotra . Released on  Netflix on 15 April 2026 , the film follows a man’s unusual obsession with a toaster he once gifted, leading to a chain of chaotic and bizarre events. Inspired by a real-life story, the film attempts to blend dark humour with crime and absurdity. REVIEW  (90 - WORDs) I picked  Toaster  mainly for Rajkummar Rao and Sanya Malhotra, and it offers dark, dry humour with an uneasy tone. The film is average overall with an unusual idea and tone, and it will make you laugh in bits and pieces. It also lost me at a point where the character crosses a line, which I personally didn’t like. I even paused it and completed it later. However, the second half re-introduces a character w...

  Image - YouTube Tu Yaa Main Review – A Survival Thriller That Is Watchable but Predictable Intro:  Tu Yaa Main  is a  2026 Hindi survival thriller  directed by  Bejoy Nambiar , starring  Adarsh Gourav  and  Shanaya Kapoor . Streaming on  Netflix , the film is a remake of the Thai thriller  The Pool . The story follows two characters trapped in a dangerous situation where survival becomes the only goal. Blending romance with high-stakes tension, the film attempts to create a mix of emotional and physical conflict. REVIEW ( 90-WORDS):  I picked up  Tu Yaa Main  mainly for Bejoy Nambiar and Adarsh Gourav. The film is average — nothing great but not disappointing either. It works if you just want something to watch without too many expectations. The story feels predictable and slightly stretched, though it has moments of tension with both internal and external struggles. Some parts feel real, while others feel a bit ove...

Produced by  TVF , the five-episode series stars  Vineet Kumar Singh  in the lead role. Directed by  Pratish Mehta  and created by  Abhishek Yadav , the show follows the journey of a passionate physics teacher determined to make quality education affordable and accessible for students across India. Review (90 Words):   Hello Bachhon  is a simple and heartfelt series about ambition, education, and the kind of teacher who genuinely wants to change lives. Since the story of Physics Wallah is already widely known, the series focuses more on the journey than surprises. Vineet Kumar Singh’s performance stands out and carries the show with sincerit...
