Raksha Bandhan

 Another one of Akshay Kumar's movie carrying a social message. After Toilet, Pad Man, etc. this one's about Dowry. The director has done great deal of good trying to bring in humor where there didn't seem to be any. The first few scenes are real jolly good ones. Not ROFL but good enough. The setting and acting and screenplay are all ok-ok but will pass. The dialog is chirpy. As expected (with the topic), there are few sad scenes but well narrated. Certain parts could have been edited and unnecessary (like the kidney ones) but anyways. Worth a watch on a lazy sunday.

Rocketry: The Nambi Effect

Wow, what a man! Nambi Narayanan is an astounding genius and many thanks to Mr Madhavan for this biopic else many of us would have lived through this life of ours without knowing about him and his greatness! Apart from the Man himself, the movie is equally good. Clean, neat and tight screenplay, professional acting from all and all-in-all a great movie-making which doesn't fail to impress. This movie (and Mr Nambi) is as good as The Imitation Game (Alan Turing) and The Man who knew Infinity (Ramanujan). Definitely a must-watch.
