The teaser of the upcoming Janhvi Kapoor and Gulshan Devaiah-starrer film ‘Ulajh’ was unveiled on Wednesday. It shows Janhvi’s character, a diplomat called Suhana, caught up in an internal conflict.
The teaser starts off with the notes of ‘Saare Jahan se Accha’ playing in the background. Janhvi is shown in the company of several top brass in an embassy. Gulshan Devaiah makes a cold entry with his voice-over without making an appearance in the teaser. However, his monologue delivery perfectly complements Janhvi’s appearance.
In the following shots, Janhvi can be seen engaging in a tussle with someone whom she also brutally whacks on the head, and then wipes the blood off the floor.
‘Ulajh’ follows the journey of a young diplomat, who, belonging to a prominent family of patriots, and finds herself embroiled in a dangerous personal conspiracy while far from her home turf, at a career-defining post.

Zee End Is Nigh
Zee Entertainment Enterprises Ltd., the disappointed bride in the failed engagement between Zee and Sony India, has formally ended its quest for a merger. On Tuesday, it withdrew its application before the industry regulator National Company Law Tribunal and said that it will focus instead on internal growth. Pulling the Nclt application also makes it somewhat easier for Zee to pursue its arbitration and other legal actions against Sony.
The plan to merge the two mid-size film and TV businesses was on the table for over two years, but finally (acrimoniously) collapsed in January 2024. Sony is also seeking restitution from Zee, which it says failed to live up to the agreed merger terms. Since the wedding bells stopped ringing, Zee has also announced that it will slice its workforce by 15%.

When it comes to serial killer crime stories, it is always best to stick to the guidelines, which are to make them feel as real as possible; the technical aspects should be tight enough, and the lead-up to the climax should be interesting. There has to be a layer of complexity as well, which will make any form of cinema in this genre an interesting watch. What if you come across a film that does not live up to any of the expectations above? U Turn, directed by Arif Khan, is a Zee5 Original that was released on the platform on April 28, 2023, and the movie is all about road accidents. What the makers did not realize was that the movie might have been an accident itself, where everything related to it just stumbled, crumbled, and fell apart.

Mission Majnu is a thriller movie directed by Shantanu Bagchi starring Sidharth Malhotra, Rashmika Mandanna and Parmeet Sethi. It is written by Parveez Sheikh, Aseem Arora and Sumit Batheja. You can watch it on Netflix from January 20.
Mission Majnu is a Bollywood film for those first time viewers with its songs, sentimental characters and colorful, rhythmic vision in an action thriller.
This movie is in its original Hindi, so you need to take that into account.
Spies, intrigue, thriller and melodrama in this production with a political backdrop.
About the Movie Mission Majnu
We warn you: this movie promises more action in the tráiler than which it delivers later in the movie. However, it is entertaining… it uses a plot and treatment that is more or less lightweight at the beginning and transforms it into a more “serious” movie of political intrigue that gradually morphs into drama and even melodrama.

Bollywood A-lister Alia Bhatt is enjoying a roaring 2022.
“Gangubai Kathiawadi,” in which she played the central, title role, had its world premiere as a Berlinale gala screening, was a box office success and was the #1 non-English film and the #1 film in 25 countries on Netflix globally. “Rrr,” in which she’s one of the leads, is one of the biggest Indian hits of the year.
And now, “Darlings,” Bhatt’s debut as producer, via her Eternal Sunshine Productions, is set for a worldwide debut on Netflix on Aug. 5.

In 2015’s surprisingly poignant “Bajrangi Bhaijaan,” filmmaker Kabir Khan had even the most dogged of Salman Khan’s skeptics reaching for tissues, giving him the reputation as the one writer-director who could at last bring out a certain depth in the actor that, frankly, many of us didn’t think was there. So when “Tubelight” was announced as the duo’s next release, much of the excitement was rooted in the hopes of another winning collaboration.
“Bajrangi” and “Tubelight” have lots in common: Salman in the lead as a man-child with a golden heart. The lessons of loving thy neighbor and never giving up hope. An impossibly adorable child as Salman’s sidekick, pivotal to selling us on those messages. But where “Bajrangi” effectively harnessed the actor’s mega-star persona into a simple character that still — in true Salman tradition — had a significant moral undertone, “Tubelight” struggles to strike that balance,...
