20 WWW.CINESPRINT.COM | NOVEMBER 2019

2.5/5

Analysis :

Harry (Akshay Kumar) works as a barber in a shop named 'Hulk Cut' in London and often
experiences flashes from his past life. He and his brothers, Max and Roy (played by Bobby
Deol and Riteish Deshmukh respectively) owe a huge amount of money to a gangster after
Harry accidentally washed off the gangster's money owing to his bouts of short-term memory
loss. To repay the money, the trio hatch a plan to marry Kriti, Neha and Pooja (Kriti Sanon, Kriti
Kharbanda and Pooja Hegde), the three daughters of a billionaire, Thakral (Ranjeet). Things
go as planned and everyone heads to Sitamgarh for the wedding. As soon as they reach the
destination, Harry recalls everything from his past life.

Final Word:

Now in the year 2019, the couples have been reborn. But there's a glitch. The
pairings are wrong. Will Harry and his brothers finally get a happy 'ending' for their
love story? The rest of the film holds an answer to that.

3.5/5

Story :

Syeraa is the story of the first freedom fighter of the country Uyyalavada Narasimha Reddy. Set in
the backdrop of Rayalaseema, the core plot is about how Uyyalavada Narasimha Reddy comes to
know about the problems faced by the people because of the Britishers and his revolt against the
British kingdom. The film narrates about Uyyalavada's efforts in uniting 61 palegars and revolting
against the British. Watch Syeraa to know about the complete story of the unsung hero Uyyalavada
Narasimha Reddy.

Analysis :

Syeraa starts on a slow note which narrates about the core plot of the film that is set in
Rayalaseema region. The film takes pace slowly and catches the fuel before the pre-interval. The
action stunts are canned well and the interval episodes are the major highlight of Syeraa. Megastar

Syeraa starts on a slow note which narrates about the core plot of the film that is set in
Rayalaseema region. The film takes pace slowly and catches the fuel before the pre-
interval. The action stunts are canned well and the interval episodes are the major highlight
of Syeraa. Megastar roars loud with his packed performance in the movie. The technical
aspects along with the VFX and the grand production values are the major highlights of the
film. On the whole, the first half ends on a decent note and leaves good expectations on the
film. The second half of Syeraa lives up the expectations and the action stunts are the major
highlights of the film. The emotional drama looks well connected and the screenplay along with
Megastar's packed performance is the major highlight of Syeraa.

Final Word:

Megastar Chiranjeevi roars loud with his packed performance in Syeraa which is a visual treat.
Laced with all the needed ingredients, Syeraa should not be missed.

Story :

Khaidi is all about the story of Dilli (Karthi) who faces jail term due to his acts. Right before
his release from the prison, Dilli turns emotional due to a cop who narrates his side and story.
It is then, Dilli decides to help him and shifts an unconscious cop to the hospital. The rest of
the story of Khaidi is all about the backstory behind the cop and the hurdles Dilli faces in this
process. Watch Khaidi to know about the complete story and what happens next.

Analysis :

The first half of Khaidi is packed with action, drama and raw narration. The emotional drama
sounds very well and they will appeal to family crowds. Karthi tops the show and he carries the
entire film on his shoulders.
24 WWW.CINESPRINT.COM | NOVEMBER 2019

2.75/5

Right from his look, body language and his performance, everything has been taken enough
care of. The interval episodes are a treat and the backstory leaves everyone in surprise. On the
whole, the first half of Khaidi is a must watch.
The second half of Khaidi is a mixed bag and has some good moments. The emotional
drama and the action episodes are a treat. Some of the episodes look repeated and lack of
commercial elements makes Khaidi a restricted watch. It will not appeal to all the sections of
the audience. The climax episodes have been decent and on the whole, the second half of
Khaidi ends up on a decent note.

Final Word:

Karthi shines bright in Khaidi, an emotional action drama with some interesting twists. It
will appeal to a limited section of audience.

Alia Bhatt

Wedding fever is on and apparently, Ranbir Kapoor and
Alia Bhatt are tying the knot, courtesy all #Ralia fans (NOT).
Yeah, sorry to mislead you. The truth is that nobody is getting
married. At least, not yet. But that is not stopping fans who
ship the duo. So much so that they've made up dates and
venues for their wedding. Remember when they photoshopped
Ranbir Kapoor's face on the groom of Alia Bhatt's bridal TVC?
Well, this time around, their ardent followers have birthed a
whole wedding invitation albeit with spelling mistakes.

Shah Rukh Khan

Shah Rukh Khan asks for heels to match with his Karan
Johar style 'fashionista' jacket! Shah Rukh Khan and
Karan Johar go way back! The actor-director duo who
began their dosti with Kuch Kuch Hota Hai share more
than decades of a special collaboration that only gets
better with time. In fact, their camaraderie is beyond films,
so much so that, they call each other family. Only today
they got back from SRK's Alibaug bungalow where King
Khan and wife Gauri Khan hosted Karan Johar and other
friends including Manish Malhotra and Sussanne Khan for
a fun and intimate
weekend getaway.

Akshay Kumar

T The whole team of Housefull 4 is currently in Delhi. Akshay Kumar,
Kriti Kharbanda, Kriti Sanon, Ritiesh Deshmukh, Bobby Deol, and
Pooja Hedge had embarked on a train ride from Mumbai to Delhi to
promote their comic caper film, Housefull 4. Tagging along with the
cast were a few journalists as well. It was just like an adventure in
itself. From singing songs to taking up the Bala Challenge to playing
Antakshari on the train, it was entertainment, entertainment, and

Bollywood actress Vaani Kapoor who was last seen in
