Recently I was browsing in my free time and in an upset mood on Amazon Prime to see a movie. Suddenly the poster of Flat 211 caught my attention and I make up my mind to watch it.
Although it was released in 2017 many of us might have missed it and gone unnoticed. This may be because the promotion was not done properly just like big movies or due to the not well-known cast of the movie.
Flat 211 is a thriller movie regarding an incident in flat 211 directed by Dubai-based IT professional Sunil Sanjan. Sunil is from a non-Bollywood background and tried to present something new. All characters are shady and played well by Jayesh Raj, Sonal Singh, Samonica Shrivastava, and Digvijay Singh…
The plot of the movie is good that keeps viewers engaged about what next will happen which is a basic requirement of a suspense thriller movie.
The mystery story of murder in Flat 211 is good to watch at least once. More work to tighten up the script can make it a wonderful movie.
This movie is good to watch especially for those who love Hollywood thriller movies.
Background music is good along with a few songs by Mika Singh and Divya Kumar.
Flat 211 has highlighted the consequences of desires to gain in life and falling into the trap.
Frankly speaking, this movie has changed my mood.
I suggest the young generation to watch the movie. It’s worth spending money on this type of movie.
Yesterday late at night I was changing channels as usual without any intention to find some good program or film suddenly I found a movie has just started. The initial shots of the movie stopped me and bound me to remove my hand from the remote.
It was a beautiful shot of the hilly area covered with white snow and a car passing in between the beautiful trees covered by snow.
In the next shot of the movie, Emraan Hashmi was driving the car.
Normally I avoid watching movies with Emraan Hashmi I don’t know the reason probably because I don’t like his acting in a monotonous way and a few intense scenes with heroines in every film.
I was supposed to change the channel at that time but it was Annu Kapoor in a Sikh role that stopped my hand again.
I’m not a fan of Annu Kapoor but I admire a few roles he has played in a few movies.
Now after watching the complete movie, I appreciated my decision not to change the channel.
Are you interested to know more about the movie?
It’s a suspense, thriller, game show, and courtroom drama raising some issues of crime in a very interesting way.
In this movie, a mask is been removed from a person after a long interesting discussion.
I’m not going to disclose the story of the movie to maintain your curiosity and your enjoyment while watching the Chehre Movie.
The only thing I want to say is that it’s based on the novel “A Dangerous Game” written in the year 1956 by Swiss writer Friedrich Dürrenmatt.

Chehre Movie Review.
Please pin it
The story of Chehre is fantastic. If the screenplay should have been written somewhat more effectively it can be a fantastic film. Although it is capable to hold the viewers till the last scene.
The closing statement by Amitabh Bachchan is very lengthy and a few dialogues were repetitive. Although the strong voice of Amitabh Bachchan had tried to cover up boring.
As usual, Amitabh Bachchan has done good acting although it reminded me of his role in Pink. But it’s my observation that his acting is more impressive during short dialogues or a few dialogues. A few directors make mistakes by giving him more dialogue due to his strong voice.
Annu Kapoor has done natural acting and impressed me with his calibre. He has justified the role of a Sikh.
Emraan Hashmi has done more mature acting as compared to his previous movies. But during the flashback scenes, he was the same as in old movies.
Dhritiman Chatterjee and Raghuveer Yadav have nothing to do more in the movie still they showed their strong presence fitting in the role.
Rhea Chakraborty looked beautiful still she has to work more on her acting. The role she played doesn’t match her expressions.
Krystle D’Souza looked stunning, especially during intimate scenes with Emraan Hashmi. She deserves the role and played very well.
The rest were ok in their short role.
Regarding the music of the movie, there was no scope for any song. Background music didn’t make any impact probably I didn’t notice.
The photography was decent, especially capturing the shots of Slovakia and in the room without light.
The “Chehre” movie was released in theatres in August 2021.
Overall I would like to give a rank of 4/5 due to the good story and impactful presentation. I recommend not missing this movie Chehre.
Will you decide to go on your honeymoon with family members?
Before deciding to go on a group honeymoon watch the Punjabi Movie “Honeymoon”.
Yesterday I was feeling bored hence I decided to go to a movie along with my wife after a very long time.
To take a decision is a really very tough job, especially for a new movie due to the lack of reviews and your mood.
Anyway, we decided to go to watch Honeymoon since it was the only Punjabi movie running in my city and we love to watch Punjabi movies.
Believe me, friends you are going to laugh while watching “Honeymoon” throughout the entire movie due to the situation created. It’s really a fun movie with a strong social message.
I don’t want to go into the details of the well-written story of the Honeymoon movie since it will spoil your pleasure.
Honeymoon is directed by Amar Preet Chhabra.
He managed to engage the audience throughout the movie with continuously changing circumstances. He was successful by taking out the best in every actor. After intermission for a few minutes, a sad incident made me sad. I think that can be shortened for more impact.
Writer Naresh Kathooria should pat on his back for a tight script.
Starcast of Honeymoon
Gippy Grewal: He is a famous hero in Punjabi Movies. As usual, his performance is good.
Jasmin Bhasin: I’m sure that you still remember her cuteness in Big Boss and as Twinkle Taneja in the Tashan-e-Ishq Tv serial. She looked beautiful and charming in the Honeymoon movie which is her first Punjabi Movie. I hoped she will get a warm welcome in Punjabi movies due to her work.
Nirmal Rishi. She is a well-known senior actress in Punjabi movies. She is the life of this movie with her great performance.
Karamjit Anmol, Harby Sangha, Raj Dhaliwal and a few other actors have justified their roles.
The music given by B Praak is good to some extent. Although it breaks the continuity of the movie during the romantic song.
Pakeezah is a classic Bollywood film released in 1972, directed by Kamal Amrohi, starring Meena Kumari, Raaj Kumar, and Ashok Kumar. It’s a timeless tale of love, sacrifice, and redemption set against the backdrop of the traditional courtesan culture of pre-independence India.
Pakeezah a love story
The film portrays the life of Sahibjaan and Meena Kumari played this role fantastically. Sahibjaan is a talented and beautiful courtesan. She is caught between her love for Salim Ahmed Khan and societal expectations and struggles to find her place. Sahibjaan’s journey is one of heartbreak, as she faces numerous obstacles in her pursuit of true love, including betrayal, societal stigma, and personal tragedy.
Salim Ahmed Khan’s role was played by the legendary actor Raaj Kumar. He played the role of a forest ranger. One of his dialogues is still the most popular. “Aapke paon dekhe, bahut haseen hai. Inhe zameen par mat utariyega, maile ho jayenge.”
Stunning Cinematography
One of the most notable features of “Pakeezah” is its extravagant visual style and breathtaking cinematography. Additionally, with its elaborate sets, luxurious costumes, and emotive music, the film transports viewers to the vibrant world of courtesans in pre-independence India.
The iconic songs of “Pakeezah,” including “Chalte Chalte” and “Inhi Logon Ne,” have become legendary in Indian cinema. Moreover, these songs continue to be cherished by audiences decades after the film’s release. Furthermore, one more song “Mausam Hai Aashiqana” music is wonderful, especially the initial music with the sound of birds. Additionally, photography and picturisation are awesome.
Meena Kumari’s Performance in Pakeezah
Meena Kumari delivers a mesmerizing performance as Sahibjaan, imbuing her character with depth, vulnerability, and dignity. Her performance captures the subtleties of Sahibjaan’s emotional conflict and determination, gaining her widespread recognition. Moreover, it solidified her place as one of Bollywood’s most accomplished actresses.
The timeless classic “Pakeezah” explores themes of love, honour, and societal expectations that resonate with audiences across generations, remaining relevant today. Although some critics have pointed out the film’s melodramatic elements and pacing issues. But these shortcomings are overshadowed by its undeniable emotional impact and enduring legacy.

Furthermore, “Pakeezah” is a must-watch classic Bollywood film that tells a compelling love story. Moreover, it has earned a place in the history of Indian cinema.
