The Tashkent Files : After a long time seen a wonderful nicely made movie which is not having any Typical Hindi movie masalas. This is a must watch movie. Movie will not allow you to move in your seat right from the beginning to end. This movie is for audience who are applying their mind in analysing the facts to find out truths, having knowledge about history and politics. This movie is not for those who only like typical Hindi masala movies. It seems lots of research is done on the subject issue and that is shown on the screen superbly. Movie clears as well as raises so many questions in your mind to think about when you come out of the movie theater after watching this movie. Full credit goes to director Vivek Agnihotri who is also producer and script writer of the movie. And what a wonderful role he has played as a director and as a script writer! Direction and superb script writing are major plus points of this movie. Dealing with such a complicated subject, chances are there to loose focus on either direction or in script writing but here Vivek is getting 10/10 for both. What a superb script it is that as an audience you never feel any confusion in what point director is trying to prove in each dialog. Another plus point of the movie is superb acting by all the characters in the movie. Shweta Basu Prasad acting is so good to project political journalist character on screen. Seen Pallavi Joshi (who is wife of Vivek Agnihotri) after a long time in the movie and she proved that she is still a wonderful actress. Pankaj Tripathi is as usual too good in performing his character in any movie. He is one of the best talent film industry is having. Vivek Agnihotri is also a member of censor board. You will surely wonder after watching this movie that how come this movie got censor clearance without any controversy. Please watch this movie in a theater before it will ban for whatsoever reason as it is dealing with very sensitive politicle history and facts. It's a MUST WATCH movie.

Secret superstar : Whenever Aamir Khan movie is coming , audience is always having high expectation from him irrespective of the fact that he is a producer, actor or director of that film. Whatever role he is playing in movie making process, he always gives his more than 100 % for sure ! Once again he gave wonderful movie as usual. Aamir movie is always having different story line with a powerful message and that is what makes his movie different compare to rest of the crowd in the Bollywood. Aamir is always giving the best performance. I do not think that I have that much knowledge about film making and acting that I can comment on his performance. If i do it then it will be like showing mirror to the sun. It is always treat to watch him on the big screen even If he plays a small role in the film. Story of the movie is simple but nice script and wonderful direction makes it different. Director Advait Chauhan has given nice treatment to the simple story to make sure that it will hold you till the end. Highlight of the movie is magnificent performance of Zaira Wasim. She is so good in bringing each emotions on her face and makes you feel the same while watching the movie. Another plus point of the movie is superb performance of Meher Vij who is playing Zaira's mother role in the film. Mehar and Zaira has performed mother daughter caractors so well that it will surely touch your heart more than once during the entire movie. This is a Must watch movie for -: Magnificent performance of Zaira and Meher. Good direction , simple yet different story and of course for Aamir Khan who gave full focus to Zaira and restricted himself of playing a shorter role in the film. I believe other actors must have to learn this from Aamir Khan. This movie is completely Zaira's movie.
