Hasee Toh Phasee poster

2014 · Hindi · Rummana Ahmed

The screenplay could have been tighter and the film could have easily been 30 minutes shorter. It's not an unusual love story, it is the quirky Meeta and some beautiful moments that make 'Hasee Toh Phasee' work.

Jai Ho poster

2014 · Hindi · Rummana Ahmed

Salman Khan's box-office draw is indisputable but you can't circumvent every rule in the book and hope to just ride on star power.

Dedh Ishqiya poster

2014 · Hindi · Rummana Ahmed

Abhishek Chaubey's 'Dedh Ishqiya' is entertaining, intriguing and humourous. He sure knows how to tell a gripping story peppered with generous doses of wit.

Dhoom 3 poster

2013 · Hindi · Rummana Ahmed

'Dhoom 3' is big on style and completely delivers on the entertainment quotient. The fact that it comes at a cost of suspension of logic at times, I guess is a given.

Bullett Raja poster

2013 · Hindi · Rummana Ahmed

...not completely unwatchable but we have come to expect a certain class from Tigmanshu Dhulia and it is sad to see him sacrifice that in a bid to make a commercially viable film.

Besharam poster

2013 · Hindi · Rummana Ahmed

Ranbir alone makes 'Besharam' watchable, approaching this film with complete sincerity and proving that he can even make shoddy writing look good.

The Lunchbox poster

2013 · Hindi · Rummana Ahmed

Ritesh Batra's film is a winner all the way, an exceptional love story, where two individuals romance each other, much like the director romances Mumbai.

...reeks of insensitivity and touches a new low as far as obscenity in Bollywood is concerned.

Shuddh Desi Romance poster

2013 · Hindi · Rummana Ahmed

...the film forays into an unexplored grey area in most romantic relationships but it doesn't really delve deeper. The protagonists never seem completely convinced about their feelings and may be that was intentional.

Satyagraha poster

2013 · Hindi · Rummana Ahmed

Prakash Jha's films tend to be didactic but the unnecessary inclusion of a romantic track just dilutes the essence of the film instead of providing some much-needed respite.

...undoubtedly makes for an engrossing watch, a little more attention to detail and the film would have been brilliant.

Chennai Express poster

2013 · Hindi · Rummana Ahmed

If you are a die-hard Shah Rukh fan and if you can overlook the many indulgences of the Rohit Shetty-style of filmmaking there is no reason for you not to love this movie.

D-Day poster

2013 · Hindi · Rummana Ahmed

Nikhil Advani exhibits rare brilliance as he manages to sustain edge-of-the-seat suspense throughout. Watch it for an engaging story and engrossing performances.

Bhaag Milkha Bhaag poster

2013 · Hindi · Rummana Ahmed

The film may belong to Akthar, but in the final analysis it is the work of a director in complete control of his material, and his craft.

Fukrey poster

2013 · Hindi · Rummana Ahmed

'Fukrey' creates memorable characters and some sadi dilli nostalgia but the film never really becomes more than the sum of its parts.

Yamla Pagla Deewana 2 poster

2013 · Hindi · Rummana Ahmed

Sangeeth Sivan's 'Yamla Pagla Deewana 2' is organized chaos. Alas, garam Dharam can do little to salvage the sinking career of his two sons. The film remains watchable in bits and pieces for Dharmendra and Dharmendra only.

Aurangzeb poster

2013 · Hindi · Rummana Ahmed

'Aurangzeb' is an engaging saga but it is very dialogue heavy where music or humour hasn't been used effectively to provide some respite. Arjun Kapoor and Prithiviraj Sukumaran rise above the slightly flawed execution.

Bombay Talkies poster

2013 · Hindi · Rummana Ahmed

'Bombay Talkies' boasts of superb craft; crisp writing, skillful direction and brilliant performances. Four directors, four stories, one film; is there a common thread? Maybe.

Lootera poster
Lootera3.5/5

2013 · Hindi · Rummana Ahmed

'Lootera' oozes with the allure of an old-world charm and Sonakshi befittingly plays the heroine of this epic drama. Vikramaditya Motwane's subtle love story has an inherent appeal but is weighed down by a labored pace.

Kai Po Che! poster

2013 · Hindi · Rummana Ahmed

Kapoor's craft lies in the fact that though he has picked an unusual premise, he manages to keep his audience engaged throughout. He builds a beautiful canvas but doesn't make it formulaic at any point.
