Wondering what to watch this weekend? Our contributor Shloka recommends Jawaani Jaaneman and Maska.
★★★½

A quiet, unassuming, undramatic piece that leaves you thinking, asking, evaluating, and ultimately, looking at life in a wholly altered way.
★★★½

Sparkling wit and an important core message, keeps you invested in Shubh Mangal Zyaada Saavdhan even if it doesn’t fully come out of its comfort zone as much as one would have hoped.
★★★½

A sh-t show from start to finish that is so irredeemably bad, it will put you off going to the movies for weeks.
★

Deliciously dark and twisted in parts, with edgy characters, but too many conveniences and loopholes in its plot and contrived inconsistencies prevent it from being the gem it could have been.
★★½ 

A film that’s stylishly stupid, glamorously dumb and beautifully foolish and yet, somehow, works!
★★★½

An overlong, over-cooked, often cumbersome slog that occasionally fires up because of its glorious leads, but eventually peters out.
★★½

Sassy, spontaneous, sexy and stylish PC & Bebo were at their sizzling best in the finale of Koffee With Karan.

Madhuri Dixit and Anil Kapoor have fun with their parts, but that’s nowhere near enough to salvage this banal, tacky and lacklustre comedy.
★★ 

Zoya Akhtar’s film about a slum-dwelling youngster with big dreams who refuses to let his relatively bleak circumstances cripple the longings of his heart, is a triumph, thanks to a ‘rap’turous performance by Ranveer Singh.
★★★★½ 

An incredibly important film especially in an industry where depiction of same-sex couples on screen has almost unanimously been ridiculed and/or labelled as ‘artsy’.
★★★

Definitely a good tribute to Lakshmibai, but it sure as hell, could have been better, writes columnist An Josh.
★★★ 

Ranveer is pure dynamite, and despite being completely devoid of originality, Simmba is an entertaining, engaging riot from start to finish.
★★★

Love versus the forces of nature. A sweeping, old school romance, an earnest Sushant Singh Rajput and an extraordinarily confident debut by Sara Ali Khan make Kedarnath an engaging watch.
★★★½ 

In Sara we stan. An episode that smacked of genuine wit, articulate guests and authenticity. Saif was classy as always, and Sara, we’re rooting for you gurl!

A true homage, to the ‘70s and ‘80s films of yore.
★★★

As the two stars took centre stage, it was Katrina Kaif with her astonishing self-awareness and emotional intelligence, that proved to be the episode’s major highlight.

More like the Slog from Hindustan. Do yourself a favour and don’t let these thugs mug you off of your well-earned cash.
★½

A little more engaging thanks to Khan, because of whom more current topics were covered, but perhaps host Johar needs to learn how to strike a balance between fun and content – it’s either too much of one or the other.

Boys just wanna have fun: Ranveer and Akshay’s madcap energy and bromance kept me engaged and rescued this week’s show from being stuck in the doldrums.

The season opener ticked the prerequisite boxes and both Deepika and Alia individually were affable, but there was nothing really ground-breaking here that hasn’t been witnessed before.

An inaccurate but engrossing film for the most part, with show-stopping turns by Ranbir Kapoor and Vicky Kaushal.
★★★

Do yourself a favour and keep well away from this complete and utter turd.
★

Four spunky ladies all of whom are a riot in a breezy first act and deserved a climax like Thelma & Louise – but instead get saddled in a script that can’t quite decide what it wants to be.
★★★

An engaging, intelligent and well intentioned thriller with yet another riveting performance by Bhatt.
★★★★

Has the distinction of being that well intended venture that entertains and educates in equal measures, and one that dares to think outside the box and attempts to challenge an archaic mindset.
★★★

Keeps you invested and in awe of its beauty despite its many inconsistencies, with a show-stopping turn by Ranveer Singh, who gives us an antagonist for the ages. I'm not sure why they just didn't call it Khilji.
★★★½ 

A gem of a film with a sparkling turn by Vidya Balan.
★★★★

Forgettable, but an entirely entertaining one time watch.
★★★

An eminently likeable feature film, with a well crafted story that's peppered with wit and depth and one that will inevitably appeal to a universal audience.
★★★★
