Watch our full review of Bhool Chuk Maaf (Forgive My Mistakes), a 2025 Hindi-language supernatural romantic comedy starring Rajkumar Rao and Wamiqa Gabbi, written and directed by Karan Sharma, streaming now on Amazon Prime Video.
Titli’s dad won’t let Ranjan marry her because he doesn’t have a good government job. That’s where it all begins. Ranjan starts trying to find a job and then it starts getting crazy…It’s set in the holy city of Varanasi. There’s a guru on every street corner, and you don’t know which ones are real and which ones are con-men, and neither does Ranjan.
This month, Shuvam and I review the Hindi-language film Sector 36, a police thriller about a serial child killer streaming now on Netflix. Loosely inspired by true events surrounding the Nithari case, it led us to a much deeper conversation than in our usual reviews including discussing the RG Kar rape case, the Atlanta child killings, the French gang rape case and the politics of caste and religion.
It has a lot of layers. It talks about caste politics, religion politics, and the patriarchal side of society. Deepak Dobpriyal is known to play comedy roles but this movie has given him an opportunity to really shine. Vikrant Massey has also done something which he has never done before. So, kudos to both of these great actors . . . The film keeps the police thriller genre fresh by placing a real life social issue in the middle of it, which is that the police and the media are not interested if it’s a poor kid.
