Yes, Leo finally won! But that was probably the most expected thing of the 88th Academy Awards night and I have absolutely nothing more to add to this topic! However, there are plenty of other points that are squirming in my mind and I must express them now. After all, I had to wake up […]

There was a time when a film like Fire (1996) just could not get released. Then there came a period when people like Karan Johar had to insert a series of running gay jokes in Kal Ho Na Ho (2003). One cannot blame him for that because that was the only way he could even […]
![oscar_best_picture[1]](https://blog.enakshisharma.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/oscar_best_picture1-730x410.jpg)
So the Oscars are due within a week or so. Not that it matters but I would like to try my hands on some predictions this time. I have more or less seen most of the major films that were nominated. So, I think I should make a few guesses. I am refraining from predicting […]

Kanoon is a very rare film considering its very nature. It is so rare that it’s very existence is a reason to celebrate for the Bollywood buffs. It is not only a songless film, which are rare in Bollywood even now, but also a taut courtroom thriller, again a genre nearly tried out even now. […]

So, the much awaited trailer of R Balki’s Ki and Ka is out. To begin with, I was intrigued because of the title which did not immediately give away anything. I was never a big fan of Arjun Kapoor or Kareena Kapoor but their odd pairing sounded interesting, although newbie Bollywood fans unaware of its […]

The trailer of Kapoor and Sons is out and as far as I can see, it has received near universal acclaim. It is full of witty situations backed by strong performances and it seems the writer and director have done a good job too. So, here are a few reasons that makes it worth looking […]
![junglebook[1]](https://blog.enakshisharma.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/junglebook1.jpg)
The teaser released a few months ago gave enough indications of the fact that it will at least be a visual extravaganza if nothing else. Now the full trailer of The Jungle Book is out and it is also one of the best things you will see today because it only raises our expectations even […]

There was a time when Manoj Bajpayee was the next big thing. He was not the leading man in Satya but he became synonymous with Satya instead of JD Chakravarthy who played the titular role in the film. This was a real acting star, someone who could take on the biggest and privileged dynasts of […]
![spotlight[1]](https://blog.enakshisharma.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/spotlight1-730x410.jpg)
As I started watching Spotlight, I could not help but think of India and its current state of journalism. It is a real story and a pretty recent one at that. So, more I watched it, more frustrated I felt at the situation back home. Anyways, let us first get back to the basics of […]

There are films, there are epics and then there is The Revenant! This sheer grandiloquence of this film is not merely about the size of the production but also about the sheer effort and exertion of everyone involved. It is the willingness of the cast and crew to reach the edge of their physical and […]
