Masand review: 'Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster Returns'

With 'Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster Returns', director Tigmanshu Dhulia delivers another earthy cocktail of power games, bedroom politics, and palace intrigue. Only the stakes are higher in this sequel; the love is tainted from the start, and there's even vengeance thrown in for good measure. Indeed the film is gripping for the most part, if you're willing to overlook some convoluted stretches. ...

'I, Me Aur Main' review: You can't help feel that real potential was squandered

There's an interesting premise at the heart of debutant director Kapil Sharma's 'I, Me Aur Main', which tells the coming of age story of a 35-year-old. But despite giving us a believable protagonist, Sharma and writer Devika Bhagat fast run out of interesting ideas to keep us hooked. ...  

'Why We Broke Up' will enthrall you with its plot

I had bought this book last year and since then was struggling with it. I would read fifty pages or so and give it up for another read.
