| Film by APARNA SENThis name suggests that the film (Directed by Aparna Sen) is related with a address. But, sorry Aparna Di, this is not your address. It should not be. Of course, the film attracts with interesting story line, gripping narration and high rated performance of the actors (special mention to Rahul Bose and Shabana Azmi). But as a dire...

I suspect some of them feel exposed ...a little emasculated collectively, maybe. Now don’t kill me guys I’m nothing but an observer! :D Is this the real macho mallu? A sobbi...

| Surreal lunacy with a fun filmmaker |
| When you write a negative review, there is almost always backlash. Most of you who have read me before do thus realise I'm not the most popular man in Bollywoodland -- to say nothing of Rediff's messageboards -- and there are filmmakers who loathe me, having taken a review too personally.Anyway, last week I wrote a column about Anurag Kashyap and h...

You can see kids kicking a football around with great enthusiasm but does it really equal the maniacal craze that the game of cricket generates? No.. but stil...

| Here's presenting some deleted scenes from one of my favourite films- each a delight to watch, though some would have been really unnecessary, and hence have been deservedly deleted. Still, the absence of some truly sparkling scenes (Scene #2 is a must-see) does break my heart, even though the movie is pretty long as it is!DELETED SCENE #1 DELETED ...
