Delhi Crime- Web Series

 It's difficult to watch, probably because it is too real for comfort. The Nirbhaya case that rocked the country is the first one to be tackled. 

Of course, there are crimes galore in all parts of the country, including honour killings, dowry deaths and several other kinds. But this web series is made well, and keeps you engaged, with Shefali Shah being outstanding in the role of DCP.

Others in the supporting cast  are good too. But as I said, a difficult watch because of the subject. Maybe that's the test of a series based on real life!

The Narrow Path- Malayalam Film Review

This is a 2016 film which could be one of the lowest budget films I have seen. Mostly, the action happens in one small house and its terrace. But it is also one of the most unusual, because it is gripping.

The hero is not fair and handsome, by any stretch, but he acts like he is a natural. Actually, there are two heroes- a son and a father. Both are great for their roles. It's about a son who has to care for his partly paralysed father, and the possibility that he may have to forego his love because of the situation. The dilemma keeps the movie going.

Wonderfully narrated story, direction and editing. I saw it on Amazon Prime, and you should too (anywhere), if you like good cinema. Subtitled where I saw it.

Again brings home the point that the story can be the lifeline of a film- Race 3 guys, are you listening?
