Baat Toh Karo

#KhandaaniShafakhana - A mediocre attempt of broaching upon a so called taboo subject, using humour.

That said, the storyline is simple and somewhat unrealistic and immpractical. The comedy/wit could have been much better and only draws a few scarce laughs. However, this is a good stepping stone for more open-mindedness in #Bollywood and like they say in the film, #BaatTohKaro.

#SonakshiSinha and #AnnuKapoor are aptly cast; #VarunSharma is too silly and wasted; #Badshah’s acting talent is inversely proportional to his rap; #NadiraBabbar should have been more energetic; #KulbhushanKharbanda is old and cannot possibly show the range of a man from 50 to 80; he just looks 80 the entire time!

Overall, not too bad for a debutant director.

2.5⭐️ from me.

Jolly Good!

#JollyLLB2 - Thankfully a pretty decent watch after 2 disasters over last 2 weekends.

Although he is neither #Raees nor #Kaabil, the Jolly fellow ensures entertainment all the way through! :-)

Superb performance by Saurabh Shukla, ably supported by Annu Kapoor. Akshay Kumar is kinda unfit for the character but does not lose grip. Kumud Mishra is underutilized and so is Huma Qureshi.

The dialogues are quirky and the tact with which the seasoned actors deliver them make them even better!

Overall a good one time watch. Hard to find too many flaws.

4/5 ⭐️ from me.
