Two of the most awaited movies of 2023...released this week....ANIMAL and SAM BAHADUR....Even after reading a lot of reviews online, I was still not sure which one to watch...So finally, After a lot of contemplating, I decided to watch both the movies back to back.....Despite being coarse,vulgar and bizzare at the same time....ANIMAL stands out as a clear winner....Animal is an extremely entertaining and excellent movie with mind blowing performances from the entire cast.......ON THE OTHER HAND.....SAM BAHADUR is a very boring and more of a documentary rather than being a movie....even the fact that this is a real life story of the great Sam Manekshaw...and an excellent performance from Vicky Kaushal will not be able to save the fate of this movie.

This is a must watch series ..i will rate it a 5 star. All the four leading ladies have different personalities and they never fail to surprise you with their one liners. Bhavna is a bit superstitious ....but then that is how she is...very real. Seema is very practical and pretty...the way she says ....mummmmmy on the flight is cute. Neelam wants to make a comeback and misses the showbiz...deep down maybe somewhere she regrets quitting movies. Maheep is the cutest and most likeable.it is very touching when she mentions...'It is very difficult to be the least successful in a family of very successful people.' Amongst the men.... Sameer Soni shines as the common man. Chunky who has made us laugh all these years.... made me cry when he spoke about ananya getting a filmfare. I am extremely happy for chunky that finally his daughter has achieved what he couldnt. Sanjay seemed very cute...playing the protective father. Sohail had just two scenes ...but he was there to support seema. About people/critics who write lengthy negative reviews about movies and web series...all i have to say..is if u did not like it...why to write long list of negative stuff to discourage or put someone down. Agreed these ladies and their husbands are not A-listers in bollywood....but they still deserve a fair chance....i as a viewer have given this series a fair chance and loved it!!!!

Some movies are good and some are not......some just go unnoticed.....SHABAASH MITHU is one such movie based on the life of the 'captain of the Indian women's cricket team'. Taapsee Pannu portrays the role of Mithali Raj with panache. There is a scene where...Taapsee gets the news of the death of a person she values the most.....just a few minutes before a crucial match and still she plays well without anyone knowing about the pain she feels within....and that too with a smile on her face......the other Indian female cricketers also have their own struggles and pains which are shown in a subtle manner. The movie speaks about gender bias between male and female cricketers...... By the way in reality also the salary paid by BCCI also varies hugely, wherein a male cricketer draws 3 to 7 crores per year .....against a female cricketer drawing only a meager 10 to 50 lakhs per year. Sadly no one is interested in watching ..the real story of....Mithali raj.....but everyone is talking about ....lal singh Chaddha and rakhsha bandhan... which, both, are mere fictional entertainers.
