Kirubhakar Purushothaman of News18 gave 2.5/5 stars and wrote "The actual mission here is of director Venkat Prabhu, and his objective is to keep bringing out those cheers and hoots every few minutes with some callbacks, easter eggs, and cameos.
‘रजनी की बारात’ सिर्फ एक लड़के और लड़की के बीच की आम लव स्टोरी नहीं है, बल्कि बदलते भारत के छोटे शहरों की बेटियों की कहानी है जो अब अपने हक, अपने प्यार और अपने फैसलों के लिए समाज की पुरानी सोच वाली दीवारों को चुनौती देने की हिम्मत रखती हैं. यह फिल्म समाज के उन डबल स्टैंडर्ड पर भी तीखा और मीठा वार करती है जो मानते हैं कि प्यार या शादी का इजहार करने में हमेशा लड़कों को ही पहला कदम उठाना चाहिए. बेहतरीन एक्टिंग, शानदार डायरेक्शन, हंसी और आंसुओं का यह खूबसूरत मेल इस वीकेंड आपके पूरे परिवार के साथ थिएटर में जरूर देखना चाहिए. मेरी ओर से फिल्म को 5 में से 3 स्टार.
Despite script flaws, Rani delivers a raw, convincing performance, making this hard-hitting drama a must-watch for its strong message and impactful acting.
Pritam and Pedro is an entertaining cybercrime thriller that doesn't always hit the mark, but Arshad Warsi and Vir Hirani's chemistry makes this six-episode series a breezy binge.
Kashvi Raj Singh of News 18 rated it 3.5/5 stars and said that "Despite some forgivable flaws, the film is a visual treat, and the second half will surely leave you jaw-dropped.
Yatamanyu Narain of News 18 gave 4 stars out of 5 and said that "Madhuri Dixit delivers a powerful, chilling performance in Nagesh Kukunoor’s layered psychological crime thriller that grips till the final episode."
Flaws? Certainly. The humour is hit-and-miss. Some cultural touches skim the surface rather than diving deep. And narratively, the film walks such a straight line that surprises are few and far between. Yet, in an era where “romance" often comes camouflaged with explosions, espionage, or superhero capes, the very simplicity of Param Sundari feels radical.
A significant flaw in the show lies in its storytelling approach. Given that the audience has already been exposed to this narrative in films and shows like Mission Majnu and Rocket Boys, it was incumbent upon the director to infuse the story with a fresh perspective. Unfortunately, the show falls short in this regard. It fails to spark curiosity or excitement among viewers. The narrative lacks the ability to engage; instead, it feels rushed and disjointed. To resonate with audiences, the show needed a more nuanced and thoughtful approach that would have allowed the characters to breathe and the story to unfold organically. However, it looks like the makers were prioritising pace over depth. It is because of this that the makers fail to establish their characters and bring a flow to their storytelling. The show’s dialogues are another major letdown, often feeling forced and unnatural.
Yatamanyu Narain of News 18 rated it 3/5 stars and said that "Search: The Naina Murder Case is gripping and intriguing in parts, enriched by strong performances and an intelligent premise, but it never quite achieves the narrative cohesion it strives for."
Kirubhakar Purushothaman of News 18 gave 2.5/5 stars and wrote "Instead of being a mythical series that marries myth to science, Aindham Vedham ends up being a self-important work that insists upon itself."
Kirubhakar Purushothaman of News18 gave 4/5 stars and wrote "Rajkumar Periasamy needs a huge salute for making a subtle but incredibly touching ode to a soldier.
