Normally, realistically, I’m never short of words. Never. But Hungama 2 is one such movie that has left a profound effect on me. Let's put it straight, I am numb.

I went with such high hopes that the free fall is now hurting every bit of me. And why not, the film is directed by none other than Priyadarshan! It boasts of a battery of talented actors starting Paresh Rawal, Ashutosh Rana, Meezan Jaffery, Pranitha, Shilpa Shetty, Rajpal Yadav, Tiku Talsania, Manoj Joshi, and yet such a fiasco.

Touted as a comedy, the film makes a desperate and failed attempt to put a smile on your face. Let me tell you the film does have a plot, I was told so. But, I just couldn’t find it.

Hungama 2 is more like a one-act theatrical performance, where every actor comes, says his or her dialogues and exits. All the dialogues will put the word ‘cliche’ to shame.

If you were of the opinion that Shilpa Shetty making a comeback with Hungama 2 brought in any respite, I have a question for Shilpa, weren’t you better off doing tik Tok videos, which did make us laugh, in real!

As for Paresh Rawal and Ashutosh Rana being a part of this fiasco, well, desperate times (Covid times) call for desperate measures!

Diljit Dosanjh Takes Punjabi to Global Heights with Aryan Khan Collab: A Moment of Pride for Every Punjabi!

The recently released song ‘Tenu Ki Pata’ from the upcoming project ‘The Ba**ds of Bollywood’* has created a wave of excitement, not just for its music but for what it represents. This track marks a surprising yet powerful collaboration between Diljit Dosanjh, one of Punjab’s most loved and globally recognized artists, and Aryan Khan, son of Bollywood legend Shah Rukh Khan and it’s nothing short of iconic. For years, Punjabi culture in Bollywood was limited to background songs or comic characters. But now, Punjabi and Punjabiyat are taking centre stage, not just as representation

Aabeer Gulaal Sparks Hope for Art Beyond Borders: Why Cinema Should Rise Above Politics

Earlier this year, excitement buzzed across the subcontinent with the announcement that Pakistani actor Fawad Khan would return to Bollywood in the romantic comedy Aabeer Gulaal (initially titled Abir Gulaal). Starring opposite Indian actress Vaani Kapoor, the film was set to mark Fawad’s long awaited comeback to Indian cinema after nearly a decade a return that many hoped would also signal a return to artistic collaboration between India and Pakistan. Fawad’s Bollywood career came to a halt following the 2016 Uri terror attack, after which a ban on Pakistani artists in India was impose

Something Has Shifted: Bollywood Steps Up for a Flooded Punjab

Jasmine Singh Bollywood has often embraced Punjab for its vibrant music, colorful culture, and high-energy presence usually in the form of chart-topping songs or scenic locations used to promote films. But rarely has the industry paused to engage with the real Punjab, its struggles, its people, its pain. That’s why what we’re seeing now feels so different. The recent floods in Punjab that have ravaged large parts of the state seem to have struck a deeper chord, prompting a kind of response we don’t often witness from the Hindi film industry. It could be the sheer scale of destruction
