Toofan (2021) Hindi Movie Review

Directed by Rakyesh Omprakash Mehra starring Farhan Akhtar, Mrinal Takur , Paresh Rawal in lead.

Life of Aziz Ali a local goon is changed when Ananya comes to his life. 

Story is told in the backdrops of Boxing and the movie has all the contents a sports drama requires. Eventhough the pattern resembles an usual sports drama the performance by lead actors keeps it at another level. Farhan Akthar is the show stealer portraying the life of a failed aports man. Mrinal Takurs presence adds to the beauty of the movie. Solid performance by Paresh Rawal is another positive in the movie. Backed by adrenaline pumping sports scenes and good background scores the movie turns to be a good sports drama.

Verdict: Good sports drama

Chathurmugham (2021) Malayalam Movie Review

Tejaswini who started a Start up firm in partnership with Antony loses her phone and buys a not so famous companies phone online. There is some mystery revolving around the new phone and it changes her life.

Marketed as a Techno horror movie it tries to explain some unrealistic things using technology and science. The concept seems interesting and fresh but the presentation fails terribly. With a bunch of cliche horror scenes and Bgms which feels like we have already heard before Chathurmugham ends as an average movie. There is nothing much from the lead actors too which are commentable.

Verdict: Average horror movie
