    It just happens that you are searching for something to consume. Well, I am not a binge watcher or something but yes I am always on the lookout for interesting content. So that is how I chanced upon the Engineering Girls.

    So cutting all the crap and coming straight to the point. The story is about three girls and their take on engineering. While one aspires to get a job in a good company, the other has a dream of having her own startup and the third one has a dream of becoming an actor.

    Generally stories of engineering are told from the perspective of males after all it is still considered as a male bastion. But thanks to the changing times, girls too are making their presence felt. So the series is a fresh take on the field of engineering.

    Though the story is refreshing, yet at some points you do feel that it goes over the top. I mean seriously how can one be so stupid that after a person has thrown you out of his club then too you go to butter him? The reason you want to start your career as an actress.

    But I am not going to point out the flaws. This is because sometimes you just have to keep your brains aside to enjoy what you are watching. So though the series has a pretty naive perspective, do watch it for the spirit shown by the girls.

    P.S.- Please do keep your brains aside while watching it. You will enjoy it more else you’ll just go nitpicking at every detail.

    The gals- Maggu, Sabu and Kiara

    Starring: Sarang Shetye, Bhagyashree Shankpal ,Atharva Padhyaye

    Genre: Drama

    The story revolves around a group of students and their teacher who fight to educate more children. The reason for the fight is the only school in the village is going to be shut down by the village authorities. Also the students of the school indulge in mischief which further agitates the villagers.

    The twist in the story comes when Abdul, a small and the most intelligent of the lot is forced to drop out. The reason being his uncle wants an additional hand to help. Despite the boy’s protests, his uncle makes him work in his tea stall.

    The rest of the story revolves around how the students rescue their friend who works as a child laborer.

    The movie is a good watch. It explores the themes of child labour, poverty and Right to education. It is such an irony that education which is supposed to be a gateway to agood life is denied to people who require it the most. Also, the politics revolving around education is a big shame.

    “Education is not preparation for life. Education is life itself.”- John Dewey

    The stellar performances by Sarang Shetye , Bhagyashri Shankhpal and Atharva Padhyaye makes you root for them. So its a three and a half stars from me. Do tell me about your experience about the movie. Waiting for your replies.

    Genre: Court Drama

    Starring: Rishi Kapoor, Taapsee Pannu, Neena Gupta, Prateik Babbar, Ashutosh Rana

    The story is set in the city of Varanasi. Murad Ali (Rishi Kapoor) is a lawyer by profession who lives with his joint family happily. The movie portrays the struggles faced by a Muslim family in a town where they are a minority.

    It so happens that Murad Ali’s nephew Shahid joins hands with a terrorist organisation and carries out blasts in Allahabad. A lot of people are killed. Superintendent of Police Danish Javed (Rajat Kapoor ) is given the task to investigate the blasts. He tracks down everyone involved but ends up killing Shahid as he does not surrender.

    Police start interrogating the family members of Murad Ali. In short, his entire life turns upside down because of the unfortunate incident. People who were friends start to view them with suspicion.

    The rest of the story is how the Ali family try to reclaim their lost honour in a court case. How they prove that terrorism is not religion based. How the society ends up creating a bias against certain communities .

    Well the movie is a gripping watch. It is an attempt to highlight the issues of stereotyping, terrorism and the issues revolving around it. Taapsee Pannu shines as the defendant daughter in law lawyer. Rishi Kapoor also does a fine job portraying the character of Murad Ali with great intensity . So if you are a lover of court room dramas just like me give it a watch. The movie will not disappoint you for sure. It is a great lesson for us in humanity as we wander through uncertain times.

    Rating- ****


    “We need to reject any politics that targets people because of race or religion. This isn’t a matter of political correctness. It’s a matter of understanding what makes us strong. The world respects us not just for our arsenal; it respects us for our diversity and our openness and the way we respect every faith.”- Barack Obama
