Mirzya (Movie Reviews)
Critic's Rating: By: Meena Iyer
Direction: Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra
Cast: Harshvardhan Kapoor, Saiyami Kher, Anuj Chaudhary, Art Malik
Harshvardhan and Saiyami come from good acting stock. But they’re still rough around the edges. If you are drawn to stories that are high on aesthetics with lyrical narratives, Mirzya is a portrait that deserves a long look.

Thodari (Tamil)
Critic's Rating: By: M Suganth
Direction: Prabu Solomon
Cast: Dhanush, Keerthy Suresh, Radha Ravi, Thambi Ramaiah, Karunakaran, Harish Uthaman, Darbuka Siva, Ganesh Venkatram
There’s isn’t a properly focused plot as such (at least until the interval) and the film chugs along like a series of incidents that happen inside a train

Direction:
Cast: Karan, Neha, Aadukalam Naren, Ramesh Khanna, Ilavarasu, Sangili Murugan, Kanal Kannan, Gnanasambandam, Asvin Raja

Hyper (Telugu)
Critic's Rating: By: Pranita Jonnalagedda
Direction: Santosh Srinivas
Cast: Ram, Raashi Khanna, Rao Ramesh, Sathyaraj, Thulasi and Murli Sharma
The film is predictable at places and endearing at times. But on the whole, it feels like watching paint dry. Here’s a film which has its heart in the right place but the beats aren’t quite right.

Majnu (Telugu)
Critic's Rating: By: Karthik Pasupulate
Direction: Virinchi Varma
Cast: Nani, Anu Emmanuel, Priya Shri
