It is usually assumed that filmmakers make films for the entertainment of the audience however, here the ‘scene’ looks different! Right from the first frame it is the makers who seem to have enjoyed the most – in making what they have made and in seeing the outcome of their ‘bundle of joy’. We have all seen films of different genres in horror too including zombie horror, zombie comedy, and what not, Phone Bhoot might find its place in the wacky horror comedy genre. Wacky because the writer has poured his heart out laughing at this own humourous looking (and sounding) referenced scenes.
Phone Bhoot comes from one of the most reputed productions which has most of the successful and entertaining titles to their credit and directed by one of the ‘Mirzapur’ helmers. It boasts of the biggest Bollywood actress – Katrina Kaif along with the Gully Boy and Gehraiyaan fame Siddhant Chaturvedi and Ishaan Khatter.

The guessing game format created by Richard Bacon and U.S.-based TV producer Nick Weidenfeld will once again see four people all claim to be the same person and that “This Is My House.” A panel of celebrities will attempt to tell which “homeowner” is telling the truth and which are the actors.
The first season performed particularly well among younger audiences and was a rage on social media, the BBC said.

ReviewThe second season is simply 10 more episodes of abundant violence, sexual innuendo, toxic masculinity, father-son wars and power struggles. Saraswati DatarThere is a word that is unique to the Indian vocabulary when it comes to describing an activity that is neither particularly great nor too bad -- timepass. That is perhaps the best way one can describe watching Mirzapur 2, now streaming on Amazon Prime Video. It is entertaining in parts, has some great performances from its lead players, and has definitely been produced on a more generous budget than the previous season. However, ultimately, the second season is simply 10 more episodes of abundant violence, sexual innuendo, toxic masculinity, father-son wars and power struggles. The proceedings begin a couple of weeks after the blood-soaked finale of Season 1, where the troubled heir Munna Tripathi (Divyenndu) killed Bablu (Vikrant Massey) as per the plan, and Sweety (Shriya Pilgaonkar) becomes collateral damage. Guddu (Ali Fazal...

Mumbai, Oct 16 (Ians) Actress Shweta Tripathi Sharma feels the popular crime drama Mirzapur has broken her girl-next-door image.
"My main reason to do 'Mirzapur' was that I wanted to be seen as a credible actor more than a cute heroine. The world and the character was so far away, which is what drew me to this show. After 'Haramkhor', in which I played a teenager, I became synonymous with these young cutesy parts. But a performer has to be able to do all sorts of things. I consciously made a choice to do stories and films where I am not playing a soft part," she shared.
In "Mirzapur", she plays the role of Golu Gupta. In the upcoming season, she will be seen as a headstrong girl.

"I was shooting in Glasgow in the UK for '83'. During the shoot, people gathered around the location, and I used to think to myself, maybe it is because they are excited to see an Indian film shoot happening." The crowd, he recalled, consisted of Indians as well as foreigners.
"After wrapping up the shoot when I used to get a chance to meet them, they would only have one question to ask -- 'Kaleen Bhaiya, when will you be back on screen?'" he recalled, referring to his character from the series.
"I was shocked to see the massive fandom of 'Mirzapur' that has made its way to the UK. While I was shooting for other projects too, crew members and people all around still crazed out about 'Mirzapur',...

While most actors have a long wait ahead of them before their next starring role is devoured by audiences, actor Ali Fazal has two major performances coming out: Season 2 of Amazon India Original series “Mirzapur,” streaming Oct. 23, and a feature role in Kenneth Branagh’s Agatha Christie adaptation “Death on the Nile,” set for release Dec. 18, pandemic willing.
Fazal broke out internationally in “Furious 7” (2015), before going on to play Abdul to Judi Dench’s Victoria in Stephen Frears’ “Victoria & Abdul” in 2017 — the same year he was chosen as one of the Variety’s 10 Actors to Watch.
In “Death on the Nile,” Fazal plays a character first portrayed by George Kennedy in the 1978 film adaptation, and by David Soul as part of long-running series “Poirot.” His casting continues the recent trend of color-blind casting where an actor’s ethnicity doesn’t necessarily inform the role. “The culture has shifted,...

It?s refreshing when the most menacing gangster of the web world aka Guddu Bhaiyya steps out of his toughie image to turn a romantic hero for a music video. Ali Fazal is all set to woo his on-screen lady love played by Surbhi Jyoti in upcoming music video Aaj Bhi.
Crooned by the masterful Vishal Mishra, who has delivered the biggest hits of Kabir Singh last year, the song is helmed by Mirzapur creator Gurmmeet Singh for Vryl Originals.
Talking about the track, Ali says, ?It?s the first time I am working with Surbhi and Vishal. It?s been super interesting. I loved interacting with Vishal. He has such a mesmerising voice. He has a soulful singing quality. Vishal and I bonded over our Lucknow connect. Surbhi is super cool and we kept chatting about movies and food. The 4 days in Chandigarh was such a blast.?
But what?...

Amazon PrimeA brilliant cast of actors led by Pankaj Tripathi is let down by an inconsistent script and indulgent direction.Saraswati DatarThe name 'Mirzapur' traces its etymology back to the Persian words Emir (commander ) and Zad ( lineage) and literally translates to ‘place of a king’. It’s an apt title for Amazon Prime’s third made-in-India original, produced by Excel Media and Entertainment, that tells the story of a powerful overlord trying to rule his fiefdom while consolidating control for his heir apparent. Directed by Karan Anshuman, Mihir Desai, and Gurmmeet Singh, Mirzapur boasts of an enviable ensemble cast and a story that on paper, has all the ingredients for another small town crime potboiler. It’s an interesting ‘othering’ of small town India as a hotbed of crime and all things immoral and rather perversely exotic, for a largely urban audience watching it on a digital platform.

Film: "What The Fish"; Cast: Dimple Kapadia, Vishal Sharma, Sumit Suri, Mithun Rodwittiya, Deepti Pujari, Manjot Singh and Manu Rishi; Director: Gurmmeet Singh; Rating: *** 1/2
So okay. Comedies are hard to sustain for more than an hour...and yes, this one does over-run its playing time by 20 minutes, although it's just about a 100 minutes in length. And that's a 100 conveying sustained satirical strength. The quality of the humour and the context of the characters' comic tangles is, on the ha-ha-ho-ho whole, adroitly maintained, sustained and executed.
So here goes. A cantankerous old woman in Delhi, Sudha Mishra (Dimple Kapadia, delightfully over-the-top) leaves her home and its two specific properties namely the pet fish.
