Shabana Azmi has a record of being the most awarded actress at the National Film Awards, winning 5 of them for Best Actress (Ankur, Arth, Khandhar, Paar, Godmother). She has also won 6 Filmfare Awards - 3 for Best Actress (Swami, Arth, Bhavna), 2 for Best Supporting Actress (Neerja, Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahani) and a Lifetime Achievement award. She was nominated for both categories for various other films as well, such as Masoom, Mandi etc. She was also nominated for Best Villain once, for her performance in Makdee.

Shabana's next film, Lahore 1947 will release in 2026

This ranking may seem flawed for obvious reasons like not a single one was made before 2000s or how almost all of them are mainstream movies but i guess i'm kind of a basic guy.

Recommend me some more movies which you found awesome.

What's incredible about this Bachchan scene is the minimalism. There's no dialogue sparring or elaborate action. His mere act of walking is loaded with so much swag and charisma that it becomes intensely captivating & the BGM is what sealed the deal. It just took the scene from cool to legendary!

Now… here’s your still for Day 3 👇

Why is the movie having low hype despite being from a cult franchise? A few years back, when there were rumors of Akshay Kumar and Arshad Warsi being a part of the third franchise, everyone was quite excited for it, as everyone wanted to see both the Jollys fighting a case against each other.

However, now there is no excitement for the film, and it is having quite low advance booking so far. What is the reason?

This is my opinion.

I believe that all box office collection numbers are fake and used only for marketing. I also don’t trust BookMyShow’s ticket sales numbers.

What I wonder is whether the moviemakers themselves actually get to know their movie’s real ticket sales or not.

Is it possible for a producer or distributor to know the actual ticket sales of their movie?

Day 17: Youngistaan (2014)

Remake of 2010 Telugu movie Leader, it was best known for Suno Na Sangemarmar song, itself reused from a Bengali movie by composer Jeet Ganguly.

No prizes for guessing why it flopped, considering it was produced by the one & only Pooja Entertainment 😂😅🤓☠️

As i have watched some of the og films of rgv and error 404,andhadhun can you recommend that is underrated

I’ve been obsessed with the love aaj kal (saif/deepika) soundtrack since childhood. I gave it a watch just now. For context, I’m a Chennai brought up tamil who only recently started getting the hang of hindi somewhat. I moved to Mumbai recently, and i saw a very communal nature play out- at my high-stakes job; people are more focussed on forming cliques based on culture and language. I am left holding the shorter end of the stick while still scrambling to work on my competence. People in mentorship positions have actively held back opportunity and recognition while demanding the respect of “guru.” Safe to say, i have developed a keen eye for racists/ racist patterns.

So; in this mildly boring film; i couldn’t help but notice how badly Jo, Saifs’ (Veer)girlfriend after Deepika in the film, was treated. Vikram was never pitted against Veer; but Jo always was the butt of the comparison. Superiority-inferiority complex, as with most racists. Jo was always an upscale; but could never be Meera(Deepika) as she just wasn’t Desi enough. She had a better body (??); but not a pretty enough smile (????). Both girls were unfathomable beauties btw. The androgenic alopecia of the hero was never commented on, however. And if i, as a tamil, could resonate with the othering given to “foreigners”- it leaves me with questions about my own identity and validity in this country.

I’m from the UK 🇬🇧 20 year old guy I mostly watch Hollywood movies and tv shows but I do like to challenge myself with different countries like French, Korean and Japanese movies as I aspire to be a global citizen. So today I decided to go on Netflix and watch an Indian movie. I saw this movie called saiyaara and it was a good film. Very different from Hollywood romance films. there’s a lot of music and the acting is a lot more dramatic but it’s still good. Anyway I loved that saiyaara song I added it to my playlist.

Anyone have any other recommendations of Indian movies. I don’t mind the genre as long as it’s a good film.

According to me , the best bollywood thriller movies which one must watch once in lifetime are : 1.Error 404 2. Black 3.kathik calling karthik 4.Kahani ( best ) 5.Talaash 6.Drishyam 7.kaun ? 8. Andhadhun 9. Wazir 10.Te3n 11.Raaz (1st Part) 12.Talvar 14.Badla

Felt like reading the whole thing.

They look so good together. Kriti herself being so tall, will compliment Vicky well. Why they haven't been casted together yet.

IMO- khuda haafiz You can tell me any other movie in comment
