Mere Husband Ki Biwi
Mere Husband Ki Biwi is the kind of film that brings a whirlwind of laughter, chaos, and heartfelt moments to the big screen. Directed by Mudassar Aziz, this rom-com whisks you away on a wildly entertaining journey with Ankur (Arjun Kapoor), an everyday Delhi guy whose life takes an unexpected detour when his ex-wife, Prabhleen (Bhumi Pednekar), suddenly reappears. The twist? She's suffering from retrograde amnesia and has no recollection of the last five to six years! Just as Ankur begins to fall for someone new, mayhem ensues, turning his world into a delightful mess of confusion, comedy, and complicated emotions.
The film perfectly balances humour and heartfelt storytelling, with Arjun Kapoor, Bhumi Pednekar, and Rakul Preet Singh leading the charge. Mudassar Aziz, the mind behind crowd-pleasers like Pati Patni Aur Woh, Happy Bhag Jayegi and Khel Khel Mein, once again spins a tale brimming with love, misunderstandings, and everything. If you're craving a breezy, feel-good watch that keeps you grinning from start to finish, Mere Husband Ki Biwi is just the ticket. So, grab your popcorn, settle in, and enjoy the ride—it's bound to be fun!
Babygirl
Babygirl is a bold and seductive erotic thriller that dives deep into the tangled web of power, desire, and ambition in a professional setting. Directed by Halina Reijn, the film stars Nicole Kidman as Romy, a commanding and successful CEO who finds herself entangled in a passionate but risky affair with her much younger intern, Samuel, played by Harris Dickinson. As their relationship intensifies, it pushes boundaries, challenges societal expectations, and unearths the raw complexities of dominance and submission. Adding to the film's depth, Antonio Banderas takes on a pivotal role, further enriching the narrative.
Babygirl made its grand debut at the Venice International Film Festival in August 2024, where Kidman's mesmerising performance earned her the prestigious Volpi Cup for Best Actress. For those drawn to films that explore power, attraction, and the blurred lines of control and vulnerability, Babygirl is a must-watch. Catch it in theatres this week.
Dark Nuns
For the fans of horror craving something beyond the usual exorcism tale, the Korean film Dark Nuns is a spine-chilling mix of Catholic rituals, Korean shamanism, and tarot mysticism. A spin-off of the 2015 film The Priests by Jang Jae-hyun, this supernatural thriller, directed by Hyeok-jae Kwon, follows Hee-Joon, a young boy tormented by a malevolent spirit. In a desperate bid to save him, Sister Yunia steps in, joined by Sister Mikaela, as eerie and unexplainable events unfold around them. Meanwhile, Father Paolo, a psychiatrist, insists that science holds the key to healing, while Father Andrea believes an exorcism is the only way—setting the stage for a tense showdown between logic and faith.
Starring Song Hye-kyo, Jeon Yeo-been, and Lee Jin-wook, Dark Nuns isn't only about demonic possessions and sacred rites. It digs deeper into the desperate lengths people go to when faced with forces beyond their understanding, questioning faith and the very nature of belief. Unlike typical religious horror films, this one doesn't rely solely on ritualistic terror—it forces its characters (and the audience) to confront the unknown in unsettling and thought-provoking ways. If supernatural thrillers that blur the lines between fear, faith, and the unexplained intrigue you, Dark Nuns is one film you won't want to miss in theatres this week!
Officer on Duty
If you're in the mood for a police drama that keeps you hooked from start to finish, Officer on Duty is one to watch out for. Written by Shahi Kabir and directed by debutant Jithu Ashraf, the film follows a once-promising police inspector (Kunchacko Boban) who, after being demoted, is handed what seems like a routine case—a counterfeit jewellery racket. But what starts as another investigation soon takes a dark turn, dragging him into a dangerous maze of lies, crime, and corruption. As the stakes go up and the threats become more real, he has no choice but to fight against the clock and an unforgiving system to uncover the truth before it's too late.
With a powerhouse cast including Priyamani, Ramzan Muhammed, Jagadesh, Vishakh Nair, Manoj KU, Srikant Murali, CJ Antony, Jaya Kurup, and Unni Lalu alongside Boban, the film promises to be an intense and gripping watch. Last seen in the 2024 psychological thriller Bougainvillea, Boban steps into a hard-hitting role that examines the murky ethical dilemmas within law enforcement—where justice isn't always straightforward, and doing the right thing can come at a heavy price.
If crime thrillers packed with tension, action, and unexpected twists are your thing, Officer on Duty is one film you won't want to miss. Catch it in theatres this week!
Dragon
Tamil film Dragon takes viewers on a feel-good family drama that also serves as a coming-of-age story about transformation and redemption. At its heart is Ragavan, a student whose life takes an unexpected turn after a devastating breakup. Struggling to cope, he abandons his studies. What starts as a desperate attempt to regain control soon spirals into a game of deception, ambition, and danger—one that threatens to consume him entirely. As he navigates his journey, the film explores a deeper message: success isn’t just about material wealth—what truly matters is finding real happiness and purpose in life.
Directed by Ashwath Marimuthu, best known for his hit debut Oh My Kadavule (2020), Dragon marks his much-anticipated second film. Stepping into the lead role is Pradeep Ranganathan, fresh off his breakout success in Love Today (2022). Anupama Parameswaran and Kayadu Lohar share the screen with him, bringing emotional depth to the story. The film also boasts an impressive supporting cast, including K. S. Ravikumar, Gautham Vasudev Menon, Mysskin, George Maryan, and Indumathy Manikandan.
With music composed by Leon James, striking visuals captured by cinematographer Niketh Bommireddy, and crisp editing by Pradeep E. Ragav, Dragon promises to be a heartfelt blend of drama, action, and self-discovery. The trailer has already sparked excitement, hinting at an uplifting, thought-provoking story where a flawed character redefines success on his own terms. This one is not to be missed on the big screen!
Nilavuku En Mel Ennadi Kobam
The Tamil romantic comedy Nilavuku En Mel Ennadi Kobam (NEEK), directed by Dhanush, is his third film as a director after Pa Paandi (2017) and Raayan (2024). Adding to the film’s charm, Dhanush makes a cameo as Cupid, playing a pivotal role in the love stories. Featuring a young and talented ensemble cast—including Pavish Narayanan, Anikha Surendran, Priya Prakash Varrier, and Mathew Thomas—the film takes a lighthearted yet heartfelt look at love and relationships.
NEEK follows two couples: one just beginning their journey together and another on the verge of marriage. But when past connections between some of them resurface, emotions run high, leading to misunderstandings, laughter, and moments of genuine introspection. The film beautifully captures the chaos and charm of modern relationships, reminding us how love can be both messy and magical.
G. V. Prakash Kumar’s upbeat soundtrack adds to the film’s energy, with songs that have already become popular, including the much-loved Golden Sparrow song. The visuals, brought to life by cinematographer Leon Britto and edited seamlessly by Prasanna GK, enhance the film's playful yet heartfelt storytelling.
With relatable characters, sharp humour, and warm moments, Nilavuku En Mel Ennadi Kobam is the perfect watch for anyone who enjoys a feel-good love story. So grab your friends, make a plan, and catch it in theatres this week—it’s a rom-com you won’t want to miss!
Get Set Baby!
After the intense action of Marco (2024), Unni Mukundan takes a refreshing detour into a charming, feel-good entertainer with Get Set Baby. Directed by Vinay Govind, the film offers a unique and humorous take on gender dynamics, romance, and personal growth, all wrapped in a vibrant, heartwarming narrative.
The story revolves around Arjun (Unni Mukundan), the lone male student in a Master's program in Obstetrics and Gynaecology. As he navigates his career in a world dominated by strong, capable women, he finds himself constantly challenged—professionally and personally. Fast forward to when he is a gynaecologist. His life takes an interesting turn when he crosses paths with a woman (Nikhila Vimal) who initially dismisses him as an arrogant, self-important male chauvinist. With time, perspectives shift, and an unlikely romance takes root.
But has love ever been that simple? Especially when personal beliefs, societal expectations, and professional ambitions come into play. What follows is a rollercoaster of emotions, laughter, and heartfelt moments that make Get Set Baby more than just a romantic comedy. With a stellar supporting cast, including Chemban Vinod Jose, Surabhi Lakshmi, and Johny Antony, it's a story of growth, understanding, and breaking stereotypes. The film balances humour and depth, bringing in witty banter, emotional depth, and a refreshing take on relationships.
For those looking for a film that blends romance, humour, and heartfelt storytelling, Get Set Baby will be a delightful watch in theatres this week!
