Really saddened by the news of Nana ji’s passing.
He was one of those rare actors who never needed to do too much to make you sit up and watch. That voice, that intensity, that honesty in every performance… he was completely his own.
I feel fortunate that we got to work together in Welcome, and then again more recently in Housefull 5. There are so many memories from those sets that I’ll always hold close.
Nana ji was truly one of a kind. It’s hard to believe you’re gone.
Thank you for all the memories. You will be missed more than words can say. 🙏

#DrishyamTheConclusion: OUTSTANDING.
Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐½
Lives up to the mammoth expectations... This is, without doubt, the BEST FILM in the #Drishyam franchise and also among the BEST FILMS of 2026... SURE-SHOT BLOCKBUSTER. #DrishyamTheConclusionReview
Director #AbhishekPathak, who helmed the second part as well, proves yet again why he is among the finest storytellers today... He understands the DNA of the franchise and takes the story forward without recycling its formula... In fact, the direction and writing emerge as the two strongest pillars of the film.
The biggest high point is the #AjayDevgn - #JaideepAhlawat face-off in the first half... Simply MARVELLOUS… Deserves a standing ovation!
The courtroom sequences are another major highlight... In fact, the very first sequence featuring #PrakashRaj with #AjayDevgn and his family is yet another brilliant moment.
Now, to the all-important climax – Does it deliver?... Does it culminate convincingly?... Does it leave you satisfied?... YES, YES, YES... The finale is powerful, gripping, and thoroughly fulfilling.
#AjayDevgn returns as the iconic #VijaySalgaonkar – the soul of the franchise... The lifeline of #DrishyamTheConclusion... He navigates this demanding role with remarkable brilliance... His pre-interval sequence with #JaideepAhlawat, in particular, will certainly drive audiences back for repeat viewings.
#JaideepAhlawat is a terrific addition to the #Drishyam universe... His performance is controlled yet commanding, and undoubtedly one of the film's biggest strengths.
#Tabu is fabulous... Anger, hurt, revenge, determination – the varied emotions she portrays prove yet again why she was the best choice for this part.
#PrakashRaj is simply remarkable... His authority and unmistakable screen presence add considerable weight to the proceedings.
#ShriyaSaran is in super form, while #RajatKapoor brings dignity and conviction to his part... #KamleshSawant is top notch, adding further weight to the proceedings.
#IshitaDutta and #MrunalJadhav are alright in their respective parts.
There's no scope for music in the narrative, but the background score is electrifying and significantly enhances the tension and drama.
⭐ Final word? #DrishyamTheConclusion is sure to rule hearts as well as the boxoffice... A finale that delivers on every front 🔥🔥🔥.
Captain Smit Machchhar is a HERO.
In the face of the gravest danger and despite being seriously injured, he showed immense courage and an unwavering resolve to protect the lives of others.
His valour helped save hundreds of lives and avert a great tragedy.
India is proud of Captain Machchhar.
Praying for his speedy recovery, renewed strength and good health.
My salute to the Indian pilot Captain Smit Machchhar for his extraordinary bravery.
Despite being stabbed and seriously injured, he fought back, resisted, opened the cockpit door, and enabled passengers and crew to overpower the attacker — preventing a catastrophic mid-air disaster.
He saved the lives of 174 people, including Israeli citizens and other nationals.
I wish Captain Machchhar a speedy and full recovery.
He is a true hero.
Never felt prouder as an Indian. President Putin. President Xi. And our Magnificent Prime Minister Narendra Modi together in Mother India. International diplomacy like never before. Take a Bow. Modi Ji
India’s exemplary GDP growth of 7.8% during Q1 of FY 2026-27 is a herculean feat.
The collective strength of our people ensured India delivered such growth despite oil price shocks and supply chain issues in the midst of global uncertainties.
Doomsayers were doomed and India bloomed…yet again!

#Toxic: DISAPPOINTING.
Rating: ⭐️⭐
Yash is ROCKING in #ToxicTheMovie – he's the heartbeat, the lifeline... Ferocious action, engaging in parts... BUT #Toxic is body beautiful minus soul... Falls flat in the second half... #Yash certainly deserved a better script! #ToxicReview
#Toxic is NOT conventional cinema – you realise that right at the outset... Director #GeetuMohandas introduces you to a world and its characters that appear unusual, unpredictable, and intriguing.
The first half has several highpoints that stay with you – the first 20-odd minutes and, especially, the interval point are standout moments.
Drama, glamour, conflict, and action – #Toxic has it all, and in abundance… The emotional quotient forms the foundation of the first half, but is unfortunately underdeveloped post-interval.
The second half takes the film's graph downhill… The story stagnates, the writing lacks meat, and what you're served are action sequences… and more action sequences.
It's only when the father-son face-off comes into focus that the film begins to grab your attention all over again... The action that follows is spectacular and ferocious... However, the son's track, in particular, may evoke mixed reactions once the reality dawns upon the viewer.
#Yash returns to the big screen after the blockbuster success of #KGF2, and he is simply marvellous... Charisma, intensity, swagger, and screen presence – #Yash delivers a towering performance and commands every frame.
#KiaraAdvani is top notch, especially in the emotional moments... #Nayanthara excels, and her sibling bonding with #Yash – including the flashback portions – keeps you invested.
#TaraSutaria does well, but her screen time is limited... #RukminiVasanth is wasted – an actress of her calibre deserved far better... #HumaQureshi does very well, although her character had considerably more potential.
The background score is electrifying, while the action sequences are ferocious and visually striking... Among the songs, #Tabaahi stands out.
⭐ Final word? #Toxic is a classic case of style over substance... The film rides primarily on #Yash's immense star power, charisma, and popularity – factors that have also contributed to its FANTASTIC start at the boxoffice... The film will need to sustain momentum once the initial curiosity and fan frenzy settle down.
