Ramayana Trailer Discussion: What Worked & What Didn't

Namit Malhotra's Ramayana trailer was released on July 30, 4:15am at Brahm Muhurat. Many reviewers praised it, some criticised it. But the criticism by some reviewers on Ramayana is being considered as hate. If someone is claiming that we are presenting our culture and history to the world through Ramayana, people will be concerned about it obviously. Their PR, Yash and Ranbir fans are defending it blindly. But here's my honest take on what we know about this film yet. What worked: Some visuals in the trailer like Jatayu vs Ravana fight glimpse. Airavat elephant shot (though Indra dev is not visible. They might have saved him for movie or another trailer). Rakul preet casting looks good as Shurpanakha. The Rakshas they previously showed in glimpse was looking westernized. Makers listened to that and gave him Indian look. The lotus scene where Shri Ram is taking knowledge from Vishwamitra was also good. One thing I would mention is, that in comics, they have mentioned Ravana wa...

Deul Band 2 review

Blockbuster marathi Deul band's sequel has released in theatres on 21 may. Heres my opinion for the movie First part was released in 2015 after 2 weeks of Bahubali release. But it was not affected by the clash, because of its content. After I watched the part 2 trailer, thought this wont be good like the first one. But I was wrong. This movie is not any less than the first part. Deul band 2 is based on farmer's suicide in Maharashtra and their problems. It does not deal with it politically but practically. In a spiritual way.  Faith as a Strength, Not an Escape The story follows a struggling farmer who is pushed to his absolute limit, and his family, whose deep devotion brings Swami Samarth back into the picture. What I really loved about the writing is how Swami Samarth’s character is handled. He doesn’t just wave a magic wand to clear bank debts or make it rain instantly. The movie shows that spirituality isn't a shortcut to skip hard work; it’s the inner strength you nee...

Dhurandhar: The Revenge- Spoiler free review

Dhurandhar: The Revenge is not just a film, it’s an emotion that stays with you long after the screen fades to black. You won’t leave the theatre even after movie ends. It strikes a powerful balance between intense storytelling and deep-rooted patriotism, making you feel every moment in your heart. Whatever you would have expected from this film, it fulfils more than that. From the very beginning, the movie builds a strong connection with the audience. It doesn’t rush. It lets you absorb the pain, the sacrifice, and the silent strength of its characters. The lead performance carries a certain raw honesty that makes you believe in the journey, not just watch it. What truly stands out is the emotional depth. The film reminds you what it means to stand for your country. Not just in grand heroic acts, but in small, personal sacrifices that often go unnoticed. There are moments where your chest fills with pride, and others where your eyes might quietly well up. There are also som...

Dhurandhar the Revenge- Trailer Breakdown

The long-awaited trailer for Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge has finally dropped, and it’s clear that Aditya Dhar is doubling down on the gritty, high-octane intensity that made the first film a box-office behemoth. If the first film was about the mission, this sequel , judging by the trailer , is personal. Here is a breakdown of what we’ve gleaned from the explosive first look. The trailer starts with “Hindu bada darpok com hai” line in 1 st film. And then showing Jaskirat’s rage while killing Rehman Dakait. That’s a great symbolism. 1. The "Beast Mode" Evolution The trailer wastes no time establishing that Ranveer Singh’s character has shifted gears. We move from the tactical, undercover operative Jaskirat Singh Rangi to a raw, unhinged power player, Hamza Ali Mazari. The Shift: Ranveer's performance feels far more primal here. The glimpses of his backstory as a younger Jaskirat filled with angst and fire , suggest that the "revenge" in ...
