Meet Vishal Jethwa- a debutant who played a villain in Rani Mukerjee's latest film Mardaani 2. 

The entertainment offerings this week include action thriller Mardaani 2, Hollywood flick Jumanji: The Next Level and a new web show titled Queen. In the latest episode of its show, 'Business of Entertainment', Mint's Lata Jha goes through the financial performance of what’s buzzing in the world of entertainment.

Rani Mukerji reprises her role of Inspector Shivani Roy. In her previous outing, she uncovered a child-trafficking racket. Years later, Inspector Shivani is now posted as SP in Kota. Still as fierce and a no-nonsense cop, this time around she is being challenged by a psychotic serial killer who rapes and then tortures his female victims . The misogyny mouthed by him is nauseous and the attack carefully planned. We dive into this barbaric world where director Gopi Puthran doesn’t waste much time in telling us about a killer on the loose. It’s a relentless battle of wits, the crime committed is barbaric and the attacker always a step ahead of the police. Tune into this podcast for the full review!

Mardaani 2 is a compelling watch that makes you uncomfortable time and again but stays with you for a long time. Written and directed by Gopi Puthran with Rani Mukerji in the lead role, the edge-of-the-seat thriller packs a punch and evokes the desired angst in you, as it highlights the gruesome crimes against women and also delves deeper into issues such as women safety, gender inequality and misogyny. Superintendent of police, Shivani Shivaji Roy (Rani Mukerji) is out to capture a criminal (Vishal Jethwa) who rapes young women in a fit of rage before cruelly murdering them. The trouble is, he is always one step ahead of the cops, playing a cat-and-mouse game on his own terms. Mardaani 2 is not the first film to bring heinous crimes under the spotlight but it manages to tap into social consciousness given its timing. As the nation seethes after the horrendous rape and murder of a doctor in Hyderabad and its aftermath, the film once again takes us back to the brutality of such crimes and how we need a firm solution. Though it’s not for the weak hearted, it’s definitely a story that needs to be told repeatedly till these crimes stop.

Mardaani 2 is a sequel dedicated to Shivani Shivaji Roy, a lady super cop, who locks horns with the devil incarnate, a young & remorseless criminal who is murdering young women. Starring Rani Mukerji as Shivani, it is directed by Gopi Puthran and produced by Aditya Chopra under Yash Raj Films.

Mardaani 2, the sequel to the intense cop drama starring Rani Mukerji, is a ‘women-centric' Bollywood movie dealing with sexual violence. This got the team thinking about depictions of sexual violence and rape on screen -- can it ever be authentic and sensitive?

Mardaani 2, the sequel to the intense cop drama starring Rani Mukerji, is a ‘women-centric’ Bollywood movie dealing with sexual violence. This got the team thinking about depictions of sexual violence and rape on-screen — can it ever be authentic and sensitive?

Don’t take away my achievements because I’m married to a producer - Rani Mukerji on wanting to work outside the Yash Raj Films universe and why she believes her character in Mardaani 2 is as real as the cops in Delhi Crime and Soni. 

Extra Special: WAR, The Family Man, Bard of Blood    Episode 44 of Khandaan: A Bollywood Podcast is all about WAR, starring Hrithik Roshan and Tiger Shroff.

"Bindaz Bol" with Sultan's friend "Govind" urf "Anant Vidhaat". He is a talk of the Bollywood now. People are astonished by his role Salman Khan's friend "Govind" in the Bollywood Blockbuster film Sultan. Anant has beautifully played a role of Govind. He is a great actor, extremely talented, very handsome and down to earth. He started his career as a stage artist. Prior to Sultan Anant Vidhaat has worked in #Mardaani as "Sunny Katyal" and Gunday the film as "Himanshu". Anant has also worked as an assistant director and Second unit director. Acting is his passion. It was great talking to him and pleasure to have Anant Vidhaat on my show Bindaz Bol with Arpita Bhatt. Keep listening to Arpita Bhatt.
