Delhi’s Bold wives vs. Mumbai’s Bitchy Bollywives I've always thought that Delhi represents flair and showmanship, while Mumbai stands for simplicity. However, after watching this series, I can confidently say that the portrayal of these so-called Bollywood wives was anything but charming. Their behavior-petty, competitive, and downright obnoxious-was so off-putting that it left me feeling nauseated. If this is the version of Mumbai Karan Johar wants to showcase to the world, someone should toss this series in the trash. On the other hand, what stood out to me was Shalini's refreshing presence. Her positive outlook, spiritual nature, and refusal to engage in the negativity swirling around her were a breath of fresh air. It's clear that being outspoken, or mufat, doesn't give anyone the right to bully others or be rude. Kudos to Shalini for rising above the pettiness and not giving a damn about these toxic personalities. She was bold, talented, and, most importantly, someone who genuinely contributes to society. A quick Google search revealed she's a true philanthropist, which only increased my admiration for her. The behavior of these Bollywood wives doesn't reflect the Mumbai I've come to know. They certainly don't embody the simplicity or warmth of the locals I've met. Instead, these women seem obsessed with dividing Mumbai and Delhi into warring camps. It's embarrassing-especially considering they're in their 50s, behaving more like quarrelsome schoolchildren. Ridhima, on the other hand, tries to flaunt her Delhi connections through her marriage to a Delhiite. Yet, she's just another replica of these Bollywood wives-completely missing the grace and dignity associated with her family like Neetu, Chintu ji, or even Ranbir. The way these women gossip, cry over trivial matters, and display such deep-rooted insecurity was beyond believable. Maheep's constant use of profanity was jarring. If swearing is considered cool or empowering, then we have a serious cultural issue to address. Watching Maheep, Neelam, and Kalyani compete over who is 'best in bed' was both cringeworthy and degrading, especially on a public platform. Shalini truly outshone the rest of the cast. Her husband, Sanjay Passi, though only appearing briefly, left a lasting impression with his humility and gentle demeanor. A sharp contrast to the chaos around him. My Personal opinion on Hospitaliy, Delhi's hospitality outshines Mumbai's like 1000 times, I have seen this in general life and also it was quite evident on this show. In conclusion, this series can be summed up as: Psycho and Mentally Draining Bollywood Wives vs. Dignified and Resilient Delhi Wives.

This movie is a refreshing departure from the usual melodramatic fare, devoid of unnecessary songs and flashbacks. It presents action in a raw, realistic manner, depicting fights between ordinary people rather than the exaggerated, gravity-defying stunts often seen in action films. The film highlights the alarming lack of security and checking at railway stations, illustrating how easily someone with ill intentions can infiltrate your journey without any warning. The plot revolves around an incident on a train where passengers are taken hostage by dacoits. Despite the potential for collective resistance, the film poignantly showcases the reluctance of individuals to stand up and help each other. Only two women and two teenagers muster the courage to aid the hero and his friend, who are Army commandos. The action sequences are particularly noteworthy for their authenticity. They depict how an average person might fight back using whatever minimal resources are at hand. The dacoits, armed with local knives and hammers, outnumber the passengers but are still gripped by fear and desperation. A significant theme in the movie is the impact of hasty and ill-considered decisions. One person's poor judgment leads to a chain of events that endangers many lives. The film seamlessly weaves together elements of a love story, a tale of revenge, and the moral duty of an Army personnel. The lead actors deliver convincing performances, especially in the fight scenes, where they come across as genuinely capable fighters. The hero, in particular, endures multiple hammer blows, adding to the film's gritty realism. One of the most powerful scenes is when a female passenger kills a robber to avenge her son’s death. This moment encapsulates the film’s raw emotional intensity and the profound personal stakes involved. It's a compelling watch that keeps you engaged from start to finish.

The storyline and acting were disappointing, and the depiction of the Armed Forces was poorly handled and the production house should be fined. The director and production house should be banned from making movies

I watched this movie for the great Kapil Dev and the wonderful sportsmen who played for India. You dont watch this one for Kabir Khan, Ranveer or Deepika. This is truly for india and its cricketeers. The filmmakers have caught the experience well and i personally feel Kapil never got his due from BCCI and this film will give him the status in indian cricket which he deserves ... It is a great great watch ... felt proud.
