“Gaslight” Movie Review: Sara Ali Khan And Vikrant Massey Fail To Dial Up The Dread

In the "Gaslight" movie, Sara Ali Khan plays Meesha, a young woman who returns to a Rajasthan haveli after a long gap where she spent her childhood. However, upon her return, she is beset by dark dreams, and her father is nowhere to be found.

Shiv Shastri Balboa Review: A Genuine Effort With Outstanding Performances

Despite its flaws, Anupam Kher and Neena Gupta's Shiv Shastri Balboa is a pleasant and straightforward slice-of-life drama.

He makes friends with a domestic helper from Hyderabad once he arrives. The two embark on an adventure that quickly goes wrong.

It's also reminiscent of Rishi Kapoor's final film, Sharmaji Namkeen. After they finally get to retire, the main characters in both films have epiphanies about what matters in life. Despi...
