Irrfan Khan: A rare artiste departs

“He could help murder someone (Maqbool), and somehow, evoke empathy. This was possible because in playing one of us in a film, he somehow managed to fill the character with every one of us.”

Extraction Movie Review: Dazzling action leaves you wanting little else

“Extraction’s thirst for imaginative violence is almost unparalleled in recent times.”

Why Vivekh’s Kannadasan is the real Dharala Prabhu

“Even Kannadasan thinks of himself as a ‘kevalamaanavan’, which finds a quick response from his assistant: “Correct sir.” Anger is a consequence of ego, and is it any wonder then that we hardly see Kannadasan lose his temper?”

Into The Wild With Bear Grylls and Rajinikanth Review: A so-so peek into the man behind the superstar

The parts I liked in this show are those where this cinema superstar shows a bit of vulnerability. Like when Grylls says that the park has a lot of snakes and Rajini goes, “My god!”, his eyes betraying anxiety. Or how about when he’s about to be harnessed across a rusty bridge, and he almost resignedly says, “Kadavul irukaar.”
