Last one from me this week - ZEE5's Brown is a been-there-done-that whodunnit that struggles to be greater than the sum of its tropes. Reviewed it here

This is a far from flattering profile. Almost hilariously so. This certainly doesn't sound like Netflix cares about making good movies.

Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai is pretty tragic.

An unfunny, irritating blue of nothing. Too long have we been forgiving of this 'brand' of 'enthu' Varun Dhawan. I've always maintained I'm a fan. At this point, I’m just struggling to remember why.

Brain well and truly shut down in the last leg of Hai Jawani Toh. Still having weird flashbacks. I think Mouni Roy is in it ?

[Suchin Mehrotra @suchin545]

@sahiravik Blink twice if you need help.

[Suchin Mehrotra @suchin545]

In Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai, Varun Dhawan makes a Bhediya joke - inadvertently reminding us all of the last time he was actually enjoyable to watch on screen.

[Suchin Mehrotra @suchin545]

@sahiravik ...............we need to talk.

[Suchin Mehrotra @suchin545]

@peedeegee second one sir. Only way to do it :) We're all just out here sunbathing on the Titanic :)

[Suchin Mehrotra @suchin545]

#MaaBehen didn't quite work for me. Lots to admire & be charmed by in a film you absolutely want to root for. But it doesn't quite live up to its playful potential. A curious, sincere drama about female rage & rebellion packaged as an unexciting thriller.

"Cleverly mounted movies like Maa Behen seduce us in a music we understand while at once deconstructing the lyrics"

[Suchin Mehrotra @suchin545]

"But Maa Behen, written by Pooja Tolani and directed by Suresh Triveni, is not most movies. It’s unlike anything I’ve seen in recent memory, and I mean that in the best way possible"

[Rahul Desai @ReelReptile]

Maa Behen is one of the better Netflix films I've watched. Big swings, clever writing, inventive design and performances. Enjoyed it a lot.

Few do female rage quite like Triptii Dimri. Arguably the best thing about Maa Behen.

@Hazaaronbaatein You seem like you'd be a fun hang.

[Suchin Mehrotra @suchin545]

I just want Naseeruddin Shah to give me thoughtful life lessons and tell me he’s proud of me.

[Hindol Hazra @hindolheroic]

naseeruddin shah as the mentor who changes you life is one of the best genres out there and this film, by far, is the greatest film in that genre 🙌

[Kathy Gibson @kathyfgibson]

I loved putting this together for @whatonnetflix. Found plenty of surprises - and Radhika Apte, of course. "Which Star Has the Most Appearances in Netflix India Originals? The Top 10 Actors Ranked": https://t.co/73rphnGlMW

Really liked "Made In India: A Titan Story". Great cast, solid old-school storytelling, resists a corporate tone. One of the better Indian shows this year.

@amityadav502 You seem like you'd be a fun hang.

[Suchin Mehrotra @suchin545]

There are four Hindi streaming shows and one streaming film releasing this Week alone. Someone look at how this makes zero sense, if atleast from a marketing perspective.

#MadeInIndiaATitanStory is an absolute delight. A show about a watchmaking company has no business being this heartfelt. Check out @suchin545's review of the series here.
