#ORomeo (2026)-Streaming on Amazon Prime after it's theatrical run.

#ORomeo (2026)-The fictionalizing of the 90's underworld looks very convenient & I don't understand the need to portray notorious gangsters as romantic hero/villain, and the protagonist is shown as nearly a superhero. The film has many songs but they didn't appeal to me.

#ORomeo (2026)-This film sees Vishal Bhardwaj attempting a crossover between SLB & RGV (during his hey days).

#EverybodyLovesSohrabHanda (2026)-Rajat Kapoor & his team of dependable actors ensure that it's an engaging watch though the narrative is uneven. Streaming on Zee5 .

#EverybodyLovesSohrabHanda (2026)-What starts off as a whodunit mystery slowly settles into psychological take on human dynamics among a group of dysfunctional family members/friends.

New episode of Frequently Made Mistakes is out. Share with your writer friends working on high concept jigsaw narratives. P.S: I loved Masthishka Maranam but… youtu.be/wxThkqKdpM4?si…

#Mudborn (2025)-An above average Taiwanese supernatural horror film that combines elements of folklore & modern technology to make it reasonably engaging. Streaming on Netflix.

@Kelpha Exactly, lots of such clues are given

@Sethumadhavan Places like when jailor visits the women wing...neena asks what the name of the jailor is...prakash Singh...we know he was involved,but how is revealed in the end

#Vadh2 (2026)-This spiritual sequel to #Vadh (2022) works to a considerable extent thanks to the performances.

#PizzaMovie (2026)-A fun stoner campus comedy film that doesn't break any new ground but is a timeless watch with a duration of just 97 minutes Streaming on JioHotstar.

#Vaazha2 aka #Vaazha2BiopicOfABillionBros (2026)-Thankfully avoids getting preachy & hence all the better. Playing now across cinemas worldwide.

#Vaazha2 aka #Vaazha2BiopicOfABillionBros (2026)-This Malayalam coming of age comedy drama film is an improved version of the framework used by #Vaazha (2024) & it does a good balancing act between the comedy & emotional portions.

OTTPlay is shutting down and some of us lost our writing spaces. I have been reviewing at least one of Eng/Hindi/Tamil/Malayalam films close to 13 years now. If you are an editor looking for an experienced film critic, let me know. You can find my work at adityashrikrishna.com

#Crime101 (2026)-Easily one of the better crime thrillers in recent times, it's an entertaining film with a solid ensemble cast & keeps us engaged all the way. Streaming on Amazon Prime after it's theatrical run.

#FiveNightsAtFreddys2 (2025)-A horror film franchise set in a abandoned pizzeria could have been really interesting, but the whole animatronics angle is the reason why it doesn't work for me, just like the previous film. Streaming on Netflix after it's theatrical run.

#Anaconda (2025)-A horror comedy reboot version of the popular 1987 adventure horror film, this was a reboot that wasn't needed at all. Neither does it do justice to the original, nor does it bring in anything interesting on its own.Streaming on Netflix after it's theatrical run.

#Mrithyunjay (2026)-Also good to see a Telugu film that is devoid of songs & romance, strictly sticking to the plot. Streaming on Netflix after it's theatrical release.

#Mrithyunjay (2026)-Sree Vishnu shifts from comedy to thriller with this film & the move seems to have worked. This is an engaging film with an interesting cat & mouse game between the protagonist and the antagonist.

#HappyPatelKhatarnakJasoos (2026)-Tries to be a little too cool but instead this quirky comedy is a misfire, as it's silly & some gags just overstay their welcome, gets irritating after a while. Streaming on Netflix after it's theatrical release.
