CID one of the longest runnings serials on Indian television always kept us glued to the screens as to who murdered the person and why. The concept of Murder Meri Jaan is a bit similar to CID except for the fact that here is a policeman is married to a criminal. Both husband and wife search for criminals and the wife being a criminal herself can easily analyze what is going on in the mind of another criminal who is committing the act. Both of them keep on arguing with each other over petty matters but still love each other.  The series has a very repetitive idea and the episodes are stretched to such a level that they start feeling boring after a point of time. The series offers nothing new in terms of content and can be conveniently skipped from your must-watch list. 

What will happen when you suddenly wake up one day and realize that you have become a millionaire? Either you will grudge or you will be happy beyond measure.

This makes the son jealous and he tries every tactic to snatch away the bar from them but that does not happen. They start making profits which irks Rodney and he leaves them alone.  They are stuck in another situation after he lives wherein a don asks them to pay a hefty amount of 50 lacs. The series becomes boring after a point of time and there is nothing happy about Happy Hour. The series can be conveniently skipped even if you do not have anything to kill your time as it keeps going on and on and God knows in which direction. 

It is very interesting when a noted filmmaker and writer stories are presented before the public to commemorate his style of filmmaking. The adaptations if not made to the mark can lead to criticism and lynching. Ray is the latest anthology on Netflix which adapts Satyajit Ray's stories. Though I have never watched Ray's movies or read his stories I can say that this is not an adaptation that even Satyajit Rai would have appreciated. The stories keep on stretching themselves on and on and it is a painful experience to watch the series.  There is no doubt that the cast and crew have done a wonderful job in the series but there is a problem with the adaptation. The series could have been better if the stories had a shorter duration.  Some of my favourite actors in the series have like Kay Kay Menon, Bidita Bag, Manoj Bajpayee, Gajraj Rao and  Radhika Madan have given good performances. Regarding others, some shine while others lose themselves in the crowd.  You can wat...

Emotions are something that makes us an individual. Without them, we are incomplete. Grahan is a series on Hotstar which takes us through various emotions of love, pain, hurt, betrayal and regret among others.  The series is inspired by the novel Chaurasi written by Satya Vyas. It has both past and present references. On one hand, it shows the past in which a beautiful love story blossoms and on the other hand it shows the present situation where there is chaos everywhere.  The series shows the real truth of 86 riots and brings to light that not all riots have an objective of spreading violence. Some riots are done keeping in mind the fewer people get hurt. Love is an overpowering emotion in the series as we see the love of a couple in past and father and daughter love in present. The cast, crew and everybody have done a great job in bringing out a beautiful web series in front of the audience. It makes you laugh and cry at the same time and it can prove to be one of the binge...

Female oriented movies have always been appreciated and welcomed in Indian cinema. However, the number of female-oriented films is way less than other films being made today. Sherni is one such film that is based on the life of a female forest officer. The movie mainly focuses on a tigress who is roaming around freely and is searching for a place to settle. In this process, she kills many people and a lady officer investigates the case. The officer played by Vidya Balan wants to catch that tigress alive and release her in a national park. However, the other people have different agendas and the tigress is ultimately shot down only to fulfil the political motives of people. Her cubs are also said to be harmful and people want to kill those innocent souls as well.  The villagers come to the rescue of the cubs and hide them safely and the information is given only to the female officer who was interested in saving the tigress and her cubs. The officer is ultimately transferred because...

An adrenaline rush is common in boys when they see a hot and sexy female. They start thinking of her as a lover in their dreams and want to make her happy at any cost. Bamini and Boys is a series that has the same old repetitive idea of three bachelors attracted by their divorced landlady and they try to woo her at all costs. However, we see that the landlady is smart enough to understand the mentality of the boys and she always gets out of the situation and keeps hanging all of them. Two boys get into a relationship but still, they try to impress Bamini at all costs.  The series feels a bit stretchy and monotonous as it has the same old repetitive idea of boys falling for an older woman and there is nothing new the series has to offer. You can watch the series only if you are unable to pass your time.

The performances of all the actors are praiseworthy and the series is a great entertainer.

Every marriage whether it is love or arranged has many kinds of problems. Marriage is never a rosy path and husband and wife always have differences at one point or another. But when these arguments are done in public things get worse than normal.  In the case of Karan Mehra and Nisha Rawal, who is a famous TV couple fought in public and everybody was left in shock. Everybody who thought that they were a cute and ideal couple broke off their myth and started supporting either Karan or Nisha.   Even the TV industry started taking sides and fought with each other over this issue. I do not know what was the entire matter and what they are up to now but the way their story took a turn was very unexpected.  As a couple, you might have many differences but it is not a great idea to discuss them in public as both the individuals will blame each other for the situation and nothing conclusive can be derived out of the same. 

Many murder mysteries have been made and liked by audiences due to their gripping plot. Six is one of those series that is available on Hotstar and is one of the thrilling series which follows the story of a businessman's murder. At first, we see that the investigating officer interviews all the six women who were close to the murderer making us suspect that they are the criminals but we find a very big twist in the end. The series shows how a stifling marriage can lead to committing a crime. The series is very good and can prove to be an ideal binge watch for the weekend as it will keep you glued to your screens till the end. So what are you waiting for? Go and watch the series now and today. 

All of us are fans of old detective serials and movies and Mukesh Jasoos tries to bring in the flavour of the same 80s and 90s detective serials which we used to watch with enthusiasm. However, the series after a few episodes falls flat on its face.  Despite a good cast, the writing fails the series. The series starts feeling chaotic after a point of time as a lot of things are going on in the series and we are unable to understand where the main plot is heading to.  The series makes itself a failure after a point of time and despite so many comic strips, there is no laughter in the series. You can watch this series only for passing the time otherwise it can be conveniently skipped from your must-watch list. 

We have witnessed many series in the past where crime happens and the killer needs to be detected. Crime Next Door is a Hotstar Quix Series where we witness different crimes and how the killer is found out ultimately.  All the cases look simple and clear on the surface but as we dig deeper the realization dawns that there is more to what actually meets the eye. The crimes committed are not very simple and when they come to light we see the real faces of criminals.  The series is very enagaging and keeps you guessing as to what will happen in the next episode. The series is a must watch if you are someone who loves to watch crime mysteries and is good in catching clues. 

Loki has always been considered as a villain as he took away Tesseract from Avengers and always became an obstruction in each and every movie. The new Marvel series Loki which is available in multiple languages depicts what happens after Loki disappears in the Endgame movie.  The series is nothing like the movie and shows the story of a person who looks more like a hero than a villain. His unexplored side is witnessed by the audience and right now the audiences can watch the weekly episodes on Disney Hotstar.  The cast is fabulous and the acting is great. After watching the first episode, I can easily say that this series is going to be a binge-watch once all the episodes are released. 

Everyone has big dreams. Many of them cannot fulfil it and others do not let that dream die. This can be seen in the latest Netflix release Skater Girl where we see a rustic girl dreaming big and fulfiling her dreams of skating.  Skater Girl has a backdrop of a small village in Udaipur and shows how a normal rustic girl gets wings after she meets a foreigner who inspires her to do skating. The movie shows that dreams can be realized if you have courage and self-confidence.  There is a skating park that was built during the film and now that park has become the first skating park of Rajasthan and has been opened to all those who want to fulfil their dreams of skating and flying high. This movie shows the importance of dreams and their realization. 

Despite moving on centuries after centuries, many people are stuck with old traditions and rituals. They do not want to break free from old rituals and this ultimately becomes the cause of their stiffness. They think that society should function as it has been functioning.  People fail to realize that change always happens in society. Shaadisthan is an attempt to bring change in society by changing people's mentality. It attacks the males who think the female is their slave.  It attacks rituals that say that a girl should be married as soon as she is eligible. It questions the norms of the society and tries to bring a change through Kirti Kulhari's character. The independence and open-mindedness she has is seen in other characters much later.  If you really want to watch a good cinema, this movie can be watched. Excellent acting and casting make the movie all the more watchable. 

Sunflower is a web series streaming on Zee5 and it has received great reviews. However, after watching the series I personally feel that the series stretches after a point of time and it feels as if the series is going nowhere. The series is single-handedly managed by Sunil Grover as he has done a wonderful job. All the other actors are also good but Sunil Grover stands out of the crowd. He is one of those comedians who knows how to ace a role perfectly whether it is serious, comic or sad.  The series could have been better and it could have had some more twists to it. The writing seems a bit weird and the ending is very bad. The way the series starts it does not end on that note. You can watch the web series only for timepass and nothing else. 

After Kabir Singh was released, many people started realising the face of a toxic relationship. A few days back, MX Player released a new web series by the name Indori Ishq. After watching it, I found it quite similar to Kabir Singh with few exceptions.  In this series, we yet again see a guy who falls for a girl who loves sleeping around. He trusts her so blindly that when she tells him that she loves her despite betrayal he falls for it yet again. The guy puts everything at stake for that girl including his career, life and friends. Despite having so many girls around him who love him, he is always thinking of the girl who betrayed him and wants her back in his life. He never truly gets over her and is thinking of ways to break her relationship.  Love when becomes obsession is very dangerous. It can lead you in doing drastic things which you have never imagined and takes you towards the path of destruction. Despite so many warnings from others you are still stuck in the same...

There is no doubt that people can do anything to gain publicity. This stunt is not limited to actors and actresses but it is also an ambition of a common man. Recently, Pearl V Puri was arrested on the grounds of raping a five-year-old kid. However, the actor pleaded not guilty and is ready to prove that he is innocent. Later on, the mother of the child blamed the father for accusing Pearl V Puri of rape and the father of the kid said that my domestic fight has nothing to do with the kid.  The point I want to make here is that why people use their child to gain publicity. They need to understand that the accusations they have put are very serious ones and it is very important to blame someone only after knowing the complete truth.  I am not telling that Pearl is innocent or guilty as it is up to the law to do so but what I want to say here is that people should know the complete truth before putting final blame on someone as it is a very serious accusation.

Everyone including Bollywood actors needs to understand that if something is pushed beyond the limits then things can go out of hand. The same case implies with Kangana Ranaut who keeps on twirling herself into controversies every time.  After her affair with Hritik Roshan, it feels her thinking capacity has lessened to a great level. She illogically keeps on targeting people even if they are right on some issues. Recently, the wedding pictures of Yami Gautam were out on social media and Kangana trolled Yami Gautam's co-stars very badly when they wrote on her photos. Her remarks were really out of place and senseless. She really needs to understand that one should speak only when there is a place for them to speak. It is not good to bomb somebody else's posts with your nasty comments.  I do not know what others think about it but what I feel is that she needs to understand the situation and circumstances and only then should she comment.

Slowly, with the help of Maina, Chattis gets the courage and he stands up against his father. The series is streaming on Hotstar and you can watch daily new episodes on the channel.  The series has an excellent cast and the innocence and cuteness of Chattis played by Vikram Singh Chauhan steal your heart. Ye Chattis Mujhe de de Maina I will marry him if you won't.

One needs to be very careful when it comes to food and its safety. This is because the spread of COVID 19 had led people to take more precautions about the food they are consuming. It has become very important to understand the types of chemicals and fertilizers used in food so that our health is not harmed in any manner.  There are a variety of foods for which different chemicals have been used and they are not very good for the human body. The main focus of World Food Safety Day is to make people aware of how you can understand whether the food item you consume is safe for you or not and how can you buy safe food items.  On this day, let us try to consume the food which is safe in nature or make them safe by washing them properly with water and peeling them if required before consumption so that fewer chemicals are consumed on regular basis.

It is always a tedious task to make a sequel of something which has already a landmark in a field. The Family Man, when it came out on Amazon Prime, it was appreciated by people for its outstanding content.  The series has its second season streaming on Amazon prime and we do not find any disconnect between the two seasons. Both the seasons have been interested well and the cast is remarkable which makes the series all the more a great watch.  The series has a lot of Tamil dialects but nowhere it feels that the language cannot be understood. The subtitles are easy which makes us understand the language easily. There are many heartbreaking moments, funny moments and different moments which makes the series worth a watch.  The cast, crew, dialogues, writing and everything have been done perfectly. Every character has been given equal importance and Samantha Akkineni shines in her debut series. Overall it can prove to be an ideal binge-watch this weekend. 

Environment comprises everything as a whole including flora and fauna. All of us need to protect our environment to survive. As we all know in recent times, mankind has destroyed forests and hunted animals for their mere pleasure.  It is indeed a difficult situation in front of us as man-made destruction has already started playing havoc in some parts of the world. It is very important to preserve and conserve our environment so that we can have a healthy and happy environment. We can plant trees wherever we feel fit so that the green cover across the world increases and care for these trees like our own kids as they are equally important for all of us. 

Love is not only a word but an emotion that should be felt via heart. At times, we understand attraction and lust to be love and lose ourselves to it. At times, we become adamant about getting married or loving a person who does not even love us back.  Broken but Beautiful Season 3 is the continuation of a series related to heartbreaks with two new characters Agastya and Rumi who are completely different in class and colours but can understand each other in a manner no one can do.  Their attachment leads them to their deathbeds as Rumi is selfish for Ishaan, a guy she has loved since childhood and is with Agastya so that she can get Ishaan.

Sony Liv has released a new web series called Maharani which is said to be based on the lives of Lalu Prasad Yadav and Rabri Devi. However, this series has faced a lot of backlash and criticism because it has shown how Rabri worked for Bihar but the people of Bihar say that this series is cleaning the image of Rabri Devi.  The series shows how an illiterate lady who has no interest at all in politics and is happy with the normal life she is leading.

She slowly gains confidence when people understand the work she is doing and she becomes the favourite of the Bihar people and ultimately gains their trust. However, the series is faulty on many grounds. Fir...

It has been said since olden times that prostitution is not a good profession and all the prostitutes are looked at from very bad eyes. They do not get respect in society and if they ever try to progress they are discouraged by the norms of society.  It is very important that not all sex workers do their profession with their hearts. They are pushed into doing so and when they realize that they do not have anything to do they are forced to continue with their current profession.  On this day, let us support, recognize and honour all those sex workers who are trying to work towards the welfare of the country or trying to help the ladies like them progress towards prosperity and happiness.
