Srikanth
Starring Rajkummar Rao,
Directed by Tushar Hiranandani
Normally, biopics in Hindi cinema struggle to cram in as much eulogy as possible. Tushar Hiranandani’s Srikanth is different. It is a warm and affectionate look at a truelife hero. But it avoids being a visual hagiography.
Rajkummar Rao in a performance that he can show to his unborn children humanizes the blind entrepreneur Srikanth Bolla without denuding the character of any of his blemishes.
Into the rarest-of-rare category falls the visually impaired visionary Srikanth Bolla whose lifestory is so inspiring, it would take a devastatingly doltish director to destroy the dream. Happily, Tushar Hiranandani is not an inept filmmaker, though he could have taken Srikant Bolla’s story much further than it actually goes in this heartfelt love story: the love of a insurmountably disadvantaged man for life.
This existential ebullience comes shining through in Rajkumar Rao’s buoyant performance.

If you’re an anime fan, chances are you’ve watched Akira Toriyama’s work without necessarily working. From Dragon Ball to Sand Land you’ll be able to notice his distinctive art style and unique storytelling from a mile away.
Unfortunately, the man himself passed a few months prior to the release of Sand Land, but he did see late builds of his much-loved work come to life, and we were lucky enough to talk to Keishu Minami, the game’s producer, about everything you have in store for you when you boot it up for the first time!
[Some of the answers below have been edited for clarity and length.]
For our readers who may not necessarily be aware of yourselves, would you mind telling us who you are and what Sand Land is about?

Editor’s note: This review was originally published at the 2023 Toronto International Film Festival, with the film’s English title “Lost Ladies.” Since then, the film was released wide in India and now streaming on Netflix as “Laapataa Ladies.”
It only takes a few minutes for Kiran Rao’s “Laapataa Ladies” (“Lost Ladies”) to reveal the true meaning of its title.
Jaya (Pratibha Ranta) and Phool (Nitanshi Goel) are two new brides who wind up in the same Indian cross-country rail car, faces hidden behind identical red marital veils on the night they become fatefully laapataa. Phool’s husband Deepak (Sparsh Shrivastava) accidentally wakes Jaya in the night and takes her home to his village, while Phool is ushered off the train by Jaya’s husband and abandoned at a railway station.
There are multiple Hindi words for “lost,” each with designated usage. There’s haarna, the infinitive for losing...

Guns & Gulaabs(Netflix, 8 Episodes)
Can violence ever be humorous? It can, if you are Quentin Tarantino or Guy Ritchie, or nearer home Sriram Raghavan or Raj-dk, the duo that sticks its neck out so far, you fear for their hair.
Guns & Gulaabs (probably a tilt of the protagonist Tipu’s topi to the rock band Guns & Roses) is set around the 1970s and 80s in a lawless town named Gulaabganj, adjoining the town Sherganj . Just when you thought there would be a Romeo and Juliet from the two warring towns , we are told there is a lovelorn Romeo, Tipu played by the irresistibly goofy Rajkummar Rao who pines for a school teacher Lekha on a mo’ped(T J Bhanu).
Now Tipu is no Sultan of romance. Fuck, he can’t even write! So he gets a prim and propah schoolboy who listens to love songs by Aerosmith...
