The fans have been eagerly waiting for some news on the film’s progress, but all they have got are rumours and speculations. Recently, some reports have suggested that the film might be dropped by the production house, Lyca Productions, due to some creative differences with the director.

Cinematography: Vineet Malhotra. Music: Ketan Sodha, Mithoon, Vishal Mishra, Tanishk Bagchi and Abhijit Vaghani.
Ians Rating: **
This seems to be the year of Hindi remakes of South Indian hits, what with every Friday release banking heavily on either the original box office successes of Tamil or Telugu films. This week, after the official remake of ‘Bholaa’ last week, comes ‘Gumraah’, a yet another Hindi remake of the Tamil film, ‘Thadam’.
As per the credits, ‘Gumraah’, helmed by debutant director Vardhan Ketkar, is a crime thriller and is based on several real-life stories of two identical twins from around the world. For a thriller to engage audiences for two and a half hours, the storyline itself must be interesting, and on that count, the film has a very fascinating premise.

Talking about the challenges of playing a cop on ‘The Kapil Sharma Show’, she said: “It was a great experience essaying the role of a cop for the first time.

Gumraah
Starring Aditya Roy Kapoor, Mrunal Thakur
The trick of enjoying Gumraah is two-pronged: go with zero expectations, and if you haven’t seen the original Tamil film Thadam, you would be hooked to the story of identical twins (told apart in the Hindi version by one of them wearing printed shirts) who meet in a police station as prime crime accused after one of them snuffs out a wealthy suburban guy , apparently to steal his 20 lakhs.
But hang on! Nothing is as simple as it seems. Not that Gumraah revels in unnecessary complications. It is a neatly done, nominally engaging whodunit crime caper where the fun quotient remains uppermost. The topping never loses it tangy flavour, and that’s what keeps our interest-level perked up right till the end.
Oh, one more thing: unlike several recent crime thrillers that start off well and come to a deadend at the climax,...

Photo: ‘Red’/Netflix One of the many joys of Netflix is the large variety of content we might not otherwise consider watching. Sometimes we want our comfort shows; other times, we want to turn away from ‘Bridgerton’ or ‘Schitt’s Creek’ and try something a little different. An Indian thriller, perhaps? The release of ‘Red’, like many movies of 2020, was delayed due to Covid-19 complications, but at last, it has had its debut. This remake of the 2019 film ‘Thadam’ tells the story of two doppelgängers being tried for the same crime by a scrambling and baffled police department. The thriller, directed by Thirumala Kishore retells this fascinating premise, held up by an incredible performance by Ram Pothineni who plays both Siddharth and Aditya. The film is no doubt entertaining and certainly has its moments, but if you’re here for a tightly woven, fascinating plot, you’re setting yourself up for disappointment.
