OpinionOnce upon a time, toxic love was extensively romanticised on screen. But today, with such narratives under scrutiny, there have been attempts to address the intricacies of toxic relationships.During an interaction for an interview, scriptwriter Sanjay (one half of the Sanjay-Bobby duo) spoke about how liberating it is to no longer see heroes slapping heroines in Malayalam cinema. There was a time when one ‘tight slap’ was mandatory in most films (especially family dramas) to ‘tame’ the heroine so that she would go back to complete the patriarchal happy family picture. But with the political correctness lens firmly fastened on films by social media, writers and filmmakers are thinking twice before sitting complacently on their conditioned belief systems. Once upon a time, love was extensively romanticised and lopsided on screen. There were many instances of toxic love being normalised, as well as celebrated, without question.

Pushpa (Karuna Pandey Vaidya) and Bhavana are very good and close friends but when it comes to comparisons, Bhavana finds her very bossy sometimes.
“It was very difficult for me in the beginning because both the show timings used to clash and all the sequences during that time were important. It was very difficult to handle these issues. But I guess every artist wants to see a time in their career where they don’t have time as they are working continuously. I am blessed with such great work and characters,” she says.
Talking about the shows, she says: “My role in ‘Pushpa Impossible’ is that of Bhavana. The story is about a chawl in Mumbai and the issues that people face there. Pushpa (Karuna Pandey Vaidya) and Bhavana are very good and close friends but when it comes to comparisons, Bhavana finds her very bossy sometimes.

KollywoodThis bizarre action thriller directed by Ajay Gnanamuthu tries very hard to be clever, but is filled with carelessness in the scripting.Sowmya RajendranSeven Screen StudioCobra is 3 hours, 3 minutes and 3 seconds long. This exhausting runtime is by design. ‘333’ is an angel number (a number sequence that contains repetition), and the hero of the film is a mathematical prodigy with schizophrenia named Madhi (Vikram). For a film obsessed with showing off mathematical calculations, I want to ask a question: how old is Madhi supposed to be? Vikram, in real life, is 56. In the film’s flashback sequence which is said to be ‘20 years ago’, he appears as a boy who isn’t older than 10 or 12. The college boy version of Madhi is played by another actor altogether (Sarjano Khalid). So, between ages 20 and 30, how did Madhi get a completely new face? Why was my mind occupied with such calculations? Because this...

Review Several of their Bollywood friends and family also make special appearances along the way, including Arjun Kapoor, Janhvi Kapoor, Malaika and others.Saraswati DatarFabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives, now streaming on Netflix, is the kind of show you don’t expect pathbreaking content from. It rejoices in its own frivolity and yet remains a tad too politically correct for truly entertaining reality television. Inspired heavily by international formats like Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, Selling Sunset and popular shows like Sex and the City, the series follows the lives of four women linked to Bollywood by marriage or career. Karan Johar, who is the Executive Producer of the show, also makes multiple special appearances to set up controversial conversations or conduct an extended version of his popular chat show Koffee with Karan. Unfortunately, the script keeps things too prim and proper and doesn’t allow interactions to get truly nasty or saucy.
