I think I fell in love with Bong Soon more than Min Hyuk did. After finishing this series, I was incredibly sad just because I won't be able to see Bong Soon any more. Jokes apart, this series is a roller coaster ride of emotions. I haven't seen any other series balancing romance, comedy and suspense so perfectly. And the chemistry between Park Hyung-sik and Park Bo-young was so perfect, you can't help but fall in love with them. Though I think this series isn't flawless. Few of the scenes are only there just to lengthen the episodes, like the Nizamuddin incident. Still, you can include this in your watch list if you want to watch something that is so weirdly satisfying.

This is a movie about an Uber driver and a detective. Stu is the uber driver so he is called Stuber. The detective i.e. Dave Batista lost his partner in an encounter and he is tracking his partner's murderer. On a particular day, he had gone through some eye tests so he couldn't drive. So he did the next best thing, called an uber. That is how the main characters of this story meet and the story begins. There are few funny scenes with few action sequences. But here is what I think about this movie. This is a 'weaka**' movie with 'weaka**' script with similar 'weaka**' acting. If you have something better to do, don't waste your one and half hours as I did.

Frankly speaking, I started watching this movie only because of Emilia Clarke and by the end of the movie I realised that I wasn't wrong at all. She was the heart and soul of this movie. The storyline was weak. They try to make this movie dramatic as well as spooky but nothing was done to the full extent. So if you decide not to watch this movie, there's nothing much to miss. But if you are a fan of Emilia, you can give this movie a go.

Is the movie non realistic?- Yes. Is the movie exaggerated?- Yes. Is the movie highly dramatic?- Yes. Does the movie make you feel like going back to your college days and re-live the days with your friends again?- Absolutely yes. And result does not decide if you are a winner or a loser, effort does. This movie tells this in a very sweet kind of way. This movie will make you nostalgic, you'll enjoy every moment of this movie.

When you hear something like hindustan, British or name like Clive, the freedom fighting movement always comes into your mind first. If you are thinking that this movie is based on some historic events then you are so wrong. Yes, there is freedom fighters and the Brits and there is lord Clive but this movie is totally a work of fiction. If you keep this in mind while watching the movie, it doesn't seem that much worse as most of the people are saying. Still 2 hours and 40 minutes for this movie is way too much. If I liked anything about the movie, it were the two persons, Amitabh Bachchan and Aamir Khan. It was not what what they were acting, it was their acting skills even in such a weak plot and storyline that amazed me the most. And also I felt that the character played by Katrina Kaif was not even needed. If you remove the character from the movie it won't affect any part of the movie except of two songs and the dance, again which were not at all good enough to cover the helplessness of the plot rather it was a cry for help. If you are saying the time was of late 18th century then people didn't use to sing or dance in that way at that time. It was way too modern for that time. Now if there was any chance for me to rate that movie I would rate it 1.5 out of 5.

Mainak Bhaumik basically presented 'Old wine in a new bottle'. There have been a lot of other movies which were made on the same concept- infatuation, separation, drama(this is the part where the movie builds up) and at last happy ending. Still I like this storyline. Koyel and Jishu both were flawless. The movie was thoroughly entertaining, But the songs were the the best part, thanks to Anupam Roy again. I really like the idea of a pub with only Bengali songs. Please let me know if there is any such pubs in Kolkata. I would love to attend.
