[Adriana Gowen]

Hehas frequently voiced the issues of writers in Kannada Movie industry.[4] Apart from acting, he is an avid dog lover which was one of his reasons to be part of the 2022 blockbuster 777 Charlie.[5] Cinematographer and editor Praveen Shriyan whom he considers one of the pillar of his movies.[6] He also acted in the movie Pedro directed by Natesh Hegde which was a big hit in the film festivals.[7][8]

Dono directed by co-written by Avnish S. Barjatya comes with a fresh take on the age-old romance movies. We get a sweet slice-of-life film with the essence of romantic comedies like Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani, I Hate Luv Stories. But what takes away the most from a smooth experience is the dialogue and the bad screenplay. The characters have a good story to tell, and good arcs to work with but the film barely gives them good moments to explore them, nor do we get the kick from the most emotional moments in the film.

The film introduces new actors Rajveer Deol as Dev and Paloma Dhillon as Meghna. Dev is working hard on making a life for himself so that one day he can look at his family and at himself in a proud manner. But while his company is not working at well as he expected, he gets another blow to the heart when he finds out that the girl he has been in love with most of his life, his best friend is getting married. He plans to avoid it but much like a message from the universe, a cringe talk show reminds him that its time for closure.

He sets out for the wedding of the girl he loved to mainly torture himself but what he finds instead is the complete opposite of him, a girl, Meghna who is also in the presence of her ex but unlike him she is not affected by whatever he does. While one is avoiding the other, situations force them together again and again. Soon the two find themselves relying on each other. The film follows the typical ups and downs of a on screen relationship.

We get a few formulated fights and revelations and patch ups. The problem isn't that they seemed formulated but it looked forced, and the dialogues did not help the actors bring out the best in them. One of the most enjoyable parts of the plot remains the side characters, they too get a beautiful arc of their own as well as their love story. The fresh perspective is fun to watch, it brings in drama as well as good amount of laughs. But in the end, the moments that matter between the leads fall flat leaving you disappointed.

Paloma Dhillon as Meghna is an easy watch, she is smart and talented and manages to show two sides of her character in great light despite the fallouts of the screenplay. Meanwhile, Rajveer Deol as Dev brings the Imran Khan of 2000s and fills you with nostalgia and the right vibe for a rom-com like this. However, once again the writing seems to fail the efforts of the actors.

The sets, the costumes the music is extravagant, the script could have done without them too. Not much time is spent outside or in wide shots without the actors that the locations were needed, instead the same could have been used to work more on the script or pay the writers. Meanwhile the music for most part seems forced into the narrative, especially the song Khamma Ghani. Other songs don't always work in the favour but don't disrupt the flow either.

Overall, Dono would make for a good OTT watch on a Sunday afternoon. It might even prove to be a good watch in the coming years, but for now the bad dialogues and the basic screenplay triumphs all. This film is watchable if you wish to invest in the actor's future, or it can be missed too.

Dono is among the few Bollywood movies releasing this week. It is helmed by Avnish Barjatya, the son of renowned filmmaker Sooraj Barjatya. Avnish marks his directorial debut with Dono. The debutant director has written this movie along with Manu Sharma. This project will also introduce two fresh faces in the showbiz. Sunny Deol's son Rajveer Deol and Poonam Dhillon's daughter Paloma Dhillon will soon enter the world of movies with their first Hindi film. Dono has been jointly produced by Jio Studios and Rajshri Productions.

Rajveer Deol and Paloma Dhillon play the lead roles in Avnish Barjatya's film. The star cast of this movie also includes Poojan Chhabra, Aditya Nanda, Kanikka Kapur, Rohan Khurana, and Manik Papneja. While Rajveer will be seen as Dev, Paloma will be essaying the role of Meghna.

The film will hit the big screen on October 5, 2023. It will be released in cinemas a day before Akshay Kumar's Mission Raniganj and Bhumi Pednekar's Thank You For Coming. Both movies will clash on October 6, 2023.

The plot of Dono revolves around the lives of Dev and Meghna. They are two strangers who meet at a lavish destination wedding. While Dev is the friend of the bride, Meghna happens to be the friend of the groom. The movie further explores their friendship.

Recently released films saw Mammootty essaying some unique roles, including a closeted homosexual and an ageing tantrik. His latest outing Turbo, however, presents the megastar as we have seen him before, both in style and character.

In 'Turbo' directed by Vysakh, he sheds his serious avatar and delights his fans with a carefree performance, showcasing a sunny man who finds joy in playing big brother to his younger friends. His innocent, yet impulsive mannerisms land him in major trouble, especially with goons, much to the chagrin of his mother played by Bindu Panicker.

It is the chemistry between Mammootty and Bindu, who had shared screenspace earlier in 'Rorschach', that drives the first half of the movie.

Mammootty, who has proved his mettle to handle comedy with films like 'Rajamanickyam', Pranchiyettan and the Saint' and 'Kottayam Kunjachan', rises to the occasion in 'Turbo' too, offering the audience some good laughs, though the movie is by and large an action thriller.

This is where 'Turbo' falters since the movie tries to blend several genres. Midhun Manuel Thomas, who wrote the screenplay, starts the movie with a murder and then shifts to a fun narrative before moving the story to Chennai, where most of the action takes place. Midhun has proved his capability as a writer with films like 'Anjaam Pathiraa', 'Aadu'. But in recent times, with movies like 'Ozler' and 'Garudan', he seems to have struggled to bring freshness and originality to his scripts. In 'Turbo' too, though he has managed bring intrigues to some scenes, flat storytelling hampers the movie.

However, the saving grace is the interesting action sequences. It is impressive to watch Mammootty handle guns, cars and villains with ease that defies his age. The makers have ensured that Mammootty gets his mass moment at the climax of the movie. Turbo Jose's face-off with the villain Vettrivel Shanmugha Sundaran played by Kannada actor Raj B Shetty is another highlight of the film.

Raj, who made his debut in Mollywood with the movie, plays an effective villain, showcasing his ability to shine in whatever roles he gets. Vettrivel resembles Varman (Vinayakan) in 'Jailer' with the way he handles his victims, though Vettrivel is less eccentric and more menacing. Anjana Jayaprakash, who was seen in Akhil Satyan's 'Pachuvum Athbuthavilakkum', plays Indulekha in the movie. Her character is well-written, and leaves an impression among the audience. Shabareesh Varma too plays his role well. The background score by Christo Xavier too blends well with the mood of the film.
