The millennial in me was happy to direct this commercial for @amazonmusic India!

Music unites our country! More so when it is Antakshari played across India.

⚡Welcome to Soho, London.

BBC which is minutes away from this place will not send anyone to cover it, but will send cameras to remote villages in India to show dirt.

This was how London was before they plundered us, so they're going back to their roots.

#SpiderManBrandNewDay has been watched and must say its a very good movie. Story really tight and didn't get bored anywhere in the 2.5 hrs run time.
Only downside was since it was first day, lot of screamers and clappers ruined the experience a bit for me 😬😬 My only gripe.

My Review For Ramayana's Trailer

The Focus: VFX Over Story

The trailer for Namit Malhotra's Ramayana makes its priorities clear. Since Malhotra owns the world's biggest VFX company, the footage heavily emphasizes the visual effects rather than highlighting the story, characters, or actors.

Casting: The Hits and Misses

Some of the casting choices feel completely off. Sai Pallavi simply does not look the part of Mata Sita. I will not go into too much detail, but she just does not fit the visual expectation for the role. The same applies to Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Ram. He lacks the divine aura you would expect. His performance feels exactly like his usual acting from his other films, relying on the same intense-eyed dialogue delivery. There is even a specific scene where he is doing a Pranam pose, and it genuinely looks like his face has been digitally swapped or enhanced.
On the positive side, Yash is absolutely perfect as Ravan. He looks the part entirely, along with Arun Govil as Dashrath. Ravi Dubey is a spot-on choice for Lakshman, and the actress playing Manthara also does a great job.

The CGI and World-Building

The VFX is what this movie is being highlighted for, and for good reason. The CGI does not aim for absolute realism. Instead, it is very stylized and clean. It is similar to Marvel movies where you know the backdrop is completely computer-generated, but it still looks gorgeous. The textures, lighting, and contrast are fantastic. Most importantly, the actors blend seamlessly into these digital environments. Given that the movie relies almost entirely on green screens and set extensions, making it look this stunning is a huge achievement.
It definitely justifies the massive 4000 crore budget. Because it is a two-part epic set 14,000 years ago, massive amounts of CGI are required to build a world that no longer exists. Choosing to stick completely to a CGI environment was a smart move. Mixing real locations with heavy VFX often creates jarring transitions that pull you out of the experience. Keeping it fully digital helps the whole movie look cohesive.

Specific Scene Breakdowns

There are some truly spectacular shots here. The sequence showing Ravan arriving as a sage and taking over the throne in Lanka is brilliant, especially the shine on his crown and the surrounding fire. Jatayu in flight is easily one of the best shots in the entire trailer. The Pushpak Viman might not be completely Valmiki-accurate, but it looks fantastic and will likely be a major highlight. The indoor sets are beautifully lit and feel incredibly cinematic. We also get a brief glimpse of Ranbir Kapoor playing Lord Parshuram as he hands over the bow, and he actually looks really good in that specific avatar.
However, there is definitely room for improvement. The snow environments look a bit off and need more polish. During Dashrath's havan, the fire, although supposed to be magical in that scene, has an unnatural blue-orange tint that looks off and needs work. The demons border on being a bit cartoonish, though they are high-quality creature models that just need some final texture enhancements. Another weak point is a specific chariot entry shot of Shoorpnakha pulled by large tigers or wolves. Those CGI animals just do not look convincing right now and need to be refined.

The Final Verdict

Ultimately, this looks like the level of execution Om Raut was attempting with Adipurush. People might not like the comparison, but Namit Malhotra is actually succeeding where that film failed. The ambition is similar, but this version of the Ramayana is shaping up to be much better.

People are underestimating the role of Gitanjali Angmo in the ending of hunger strike. By 19th July Sonam realised the agenda had been hijacked, he was being played to die. Also there was no way for him to reach out to Modi/Shah. But his wife could.

@kripalamanna Sorry Kripal, but you've got this one wrong. Its a terrible place, zero hygiene and very rude staff with average tasting dishes. Doesn't deserve the hyping up..
