Best Hindi Films of 2018

filmyfool best hindi films of 2018

Another year comes to an end and for me, this has been the break-out year for small films. As I was compiling my list of best Hindi Films of 2018, I realised that there are no big films featuring in it. No Khans, no big budgets, no multi-starrers. Instead, what I have are 10 films which have great story-telling. Some use the intrinsic qualities of the actor to create memorable moments, others push the actors into alien territory, hence, creating magic.  So here are my best Hindi films of 2018 in no particular order. ...  More

No One Killed Jessica Movie Review – The Echo of a Gun Shot

Oh Boy! What a start to the year. I really hoped that this year starts off on a good note but No One Killed Jessica changed all that because it’s not a good film, it’s a great film. The film is on the murder of Jessica Lall, a subject that everyone knows too well and that’s why it was a challenge to make this film.
