It’s the technical front that is noteworthy rather than the creativity. All of the battling scenes, lying in wait, gun-fire, fisticuffs, and sniper shots are real and does not need any VFX. If closing your eyes, you can possibly feel like you’re on the battlefield with the sounds of weapons, bullets and the whispering of comrades.

What makes Kabir Singh a must watch is a rousing performance from Shahid Kapoor and also the fact that how it deals with modern relationships, heartbreak and melancholy that a broken heart sparks off.

Continuing the success of Baaghi, Baaghi 2 attracts all fans of action movies the day it was released.

Race 3 movie review:

Despite the appearance of big names in the Bollywood industry, Race 3 doesn’t show its supposed A-list excellence but a recycle bin of chasing scenes and explosions. Too many redundant slo-mo and wilted lines have ruined the performance of veteran actors. However, it’s still a worth watch if you are die-hard fans of Salman Khan or Anil Kapoor.

Starbiz rating: 2 stars

Race 3 movie download will be updated soon.

Thugs Of Hindostan movie review:

With the ambition making an Indian version of Pirates Of The Caribbean, Thugs of Hindostan gathers big names in the entertainment industry and somehow get the audience involved in thrilling adventurous experiences. However, narration and visual effects of the film has nothing special, if not tedious. This clearly make fans feel off mood while watching this movie.

Starbiz rating: 2.5 stars

Thugs of Hindostan movie download will be updated soon.

#2. Padmaavat - ₹585 crore

Padmaavat movie review:

Compliments on Raveer, Deepika and Kapoor’s performance are redundant as they already prove their talents through years, but watching Padmaavat you will no longer remember their names as they are absolutely immersed in the movie characters. The film is an exhibition by director Bhansali, which you will savor every scene it portrays.

Starbiz rating: 4 stars

#1. Sanju - ₹586.85 crore

Main cast: Ranbir Kapoor, Vicky Kaushal, Paresh Rawal, Manisha Koirala, Sonam Kapoor, Dia Mirza, Jim Sarbh, Anushka Sharma

Sanju movie review:

Sanju is an excellent work from either director or actors. While the director sophisticatedly managed to change many people’s belief about Sanjay Dutt, Ranbir Kapoor totally engages the audience with his performance. From body movement, language to the eyes, Ranbir’s work deserves to be put in textbook in acting schools, as Paresh Rawal commented.

Starbiz rating: 4.5 stars
