‘Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat’ – Love, Obsession … and a Dash of Censorship Drama

Entertainmententertainment

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], October 17: In the glitzy pre-Diwali race to captivate audiences, the forthcoming film Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat arrives with a heady mix of high emotion, big musings on love and obsession, and — ironically — a run into bureaucratic hurdles. On paper, the film appears to tick many boxes: a leading man in Harshvardhan Rane, a rising actress in Sonam Bajwa, a director with a flair for drama in Milap Zaveri, and ambitious marketing that screams “epic love story”. Yet behind the promotional sheen lies a more complex narrative: one of creative ambition meeting regulatory constraint, of emotional intensity courting…

‘Laalo: Krishna Sada Sahaayate’ — A Soulful Gujarati Ride with Hiccups but Heart

Entertainmententertainment

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], October 17: It’s always a gamble when a film dares to mix spiritual introspection with earthy realism. With Laalo: Krishna Sada Sahaayate (2025), director Ankit Sakhiya takes that gamble for Gujarati cinema — and the result is, to put it diplomatically, uneven but earnest. What’s the Film About? At its core, Laalo is a simple man’s journey. A rickshaw driver worn down by life and guilt, Laalo (portrayed by Shruhad Goswami) chases a quick escape—only to find himself inexplicably trapped in a remote farmhouse. Cut off from the world, he begins to see visions of Lord Krishna.…

Entertainmententertainment

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], October 17: If you asked me a year ago whether a Korean exorcism horror led by two nuns could open top of the box office, I’d have chuckled. Yet here we are. Dark Nuns (also styled The Priests 2: Dark Nuns) has invaded screens — and minds — in early 2025, bringing with it ambition, dread, and some stumbles along the path of faith and spectacle. When Dark Nuns premiered in South Korea on January 24, 2025, it arrived with more than whispers of curiosity — it came with weighty expectations. A spin-off of the 2015 cult-hit…

Tron: Ares 2025 — Jared Leto’s Neon Dream That Glitched at the Box Office

Entertainmententertainment

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], October 16: There are cinematic universes that expand. Then there’s Tron — a digital realm that seems to crash every time it tries to reboot. Tron: Ares, Disney’s $200 million cyberpunk gamble and Jared Leto’s long-gestating passion project, finally powered up screens this October — and, unfortunately, short-circuited on impact. The long-awaited sequel to Tron: Legacy (2010) was supposed to be Disney’s dazzling return to the Grid — a place where philosophy meets phosphor, where code becomes consciousness. Instead, it feels like a visual dissertation in search of a pulse. And yet, amidst the pixelated chaos, there’s…

Bogotá: City of the Lost – Song Joong-ki’s Crime Odyssey That Loses Its Way but Finds Its Legacy

Entertainmententertainment

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], October 14: It’s not every day that South Korea’s golden boy, Song Joong-ki, trades sharp suits for dusty jackets, suave monologues for silent rage, and Seoul skylines for Colombian chaos.

The long-delayed crime thriller has finally reached the world — streaming now on Netflix — and if one thing’s certain, it’s that even a half-broken Joong-ki still commands the screen like few others can. The story kicks off in the late 1990s, when Korea’s financial crisis pushes Guk-hee (Song Joong-ki) and his…
