In the era of the 70s and 80s, we have been subjected to a very romanticized versions of jail on celluloid, while often being witness to a character stepping out casually from a sign board that reads ‘Central Jail’… Read More…

- Genre: Drama, Thriller
The premise of the second season of Paatal Lok is as much about the character dynamics to begin with, as much as the plot which begins as a simple whodunnit. In a turn of events, you notice that Hathi Ram Chaudhary (Jaideep Ahlawat) is still grappling with his department even as his once junior officer ACP Imran Ansari (Ishwak Singh) is now his superior… Read More…
- Date of Release: 18 April 2025
- Genre: Horror
Back in the day, a typical horror setting would look something like this – a haunted mansion hosting a spirit that would soon target a hapless damsel in distress (notice how my mind immediately zeroed in on a particular gender even in this gender-neutral genre), even as the latter would be inquisitive about a ghostly presence… Read More…
- Date of Release: 02 May 2025
- Genre: Crime, Mockumentary, Thriller
One of the early signs of a mockumentary style of narrative in the Hindi show Black, White & Gray – Love Kills, is when a journalist named ‘Daniel Gray’ doubles up as a documentary filmmaker to unravel an unsolved case. The name ‘Daniel Gray’ is a metaphor on two accounts – almost a fictional take on American journalist Daniel Pearl who was assasinated on duty in 2002, and secondly, preparing the viewers that the world as well as the tale narrated is ‘Gray’ (as mentioned in the title)… Read More…

Written by Aryan Khan, Bilal Siddiqui and Manav Chauhan, The Ba***ds Of Bollywood delves in two layers. The top layer is reserved for the origin story of Aasmaan in the industry who is fresh off the oven with a surprise hit film Revolver under a legacy production house Sodawallah Productions headed by the snobby honcho Freddie Sodawallah (Manish Chaudhari), who in turn gaslights Aasmaan into signing a 3-film contract even when the latter is about to sign a Karan Johar film… Read More…
- Date of Release: 07 November 2025
- Genre: Drama
The fourth season of Maharani works both at a macro level as well as the micro level. On the surface (and given that it is now the fourth season of the show), the drama resembles a fruitful bilateral test series between two opponents that look to outwit each other. The difference remains its arena – this ain’t a cricket field but instead a political landscape that is much cruel, and a setup that has no handshakes (oh, wait)… Read More…
- Date of Release: 05 December 2025
- Genre: Drama
The cold open of the new Hindi show Real Kashmir Football Club is enough to briefly acquaint you with the politics of the land. The setting remains that of Kashmir in 2016 wherein a mob is gathered at a wine shop. The conflict imposed is of alcohol being ‘Haraam’ (read: forbidden), something that prompts for the gathering to get volatile… Read More…
- Date of Release: 04 July 2025
- Genre: Drama, Thriller
The skeletal outline of the Rajiv Gandhi Assassination Case and the IC 814 hijack have eerie parallels to contend with. Both these cases revolve around central incidents that can best be termed as black chapters from the political history of the country. There is almost a parallel that you can draw with the security issues as showcased in each of the two series in the lead up to the central incident of the respective shows… Read More…
