The best Steven Spielberg films, chosen by directors, critics and super-fans: ‘pure popcorn perfection’

From franchise hits to historical epics, joyous musicals to autobiographical family sagas: Steven Spielberg has done it all. As his latest sci-fi film Disclosure Day is released, film-makers, authors and Guardian critics reveal which of his movies means the most to them Steven Spielberg is often described as the inventor of the “event movie” – or as the creator of our new age of IP supremacy, in which the genre property is more important than any above-the-title film star. But that isn’t quite it. He came of age in the American new wave era but in spirit belonged neither to that nor fully to Hollywood’s golden age studio system that preceded it. In fact, he synthesised both into a directing style that was audacious and fluent.

Doree Season 2: Amar Upadhyay may quit the shoot, reveal reports

Set against the backdrop of Uttar Pradesh, Doree recently returned to Colors television with its second season as a grown up Doree continues her fight against female infanticide and women empowerment. She is accompanied by her father Ganga essayed by Amar Updhayay. However, in the recent development, the latter is locked in jail in a false case against him. Owing to the same, the actor has been missing from the screen. However, recent reports have a different theory as they claim that the actor is planning on quitting the show.

Recent reports have stated that Amar Upadhyay is not happy with the track of his story and hence, decided to bid adieu to Doree 2. According to a report on ETimes, considering the current plotline, where Doree is married to the lawyer Mann Thakur where the storyline focuses on their track and the challenges she faces in the Thakur household, Amar Upadhyay doesn’t have much screen time. Hence the actor hasn’t been shooting much for the second season. The reports claimed that the actor feels that his storyline has been underutilised. It is being said that the actor only shot for a day in February and that due to his commitments with the show, he also missed out on another interesting project. Reports have asserted that after a closed-door meeting with the makers, the actor has decided to quit the show.

However, the actor has refrained to make any statements regarding the same. In an interaction with Telly Chakkar, Amar Upadhyay maintained, "No comments, wouldn’t like to speak about it right now”.

Meanwhile, after the second season’s premiere last month, Amar Upadhyay had expressed his happiness and shared his journey with the show, wherein he had said, “The most exciting part of this journey for me is watching Doree’s character unfold and knowing that Ganga Prasad’s guidance has played a role in that. As an actor, it is a beautiful and emotional experience to see the character you have been portraying grow and evolve in such a meaningful way. Ganga is a proud father who has shaped Doree into the woman she is today. It is truly special to be continuing this journey in the second season”.

Doree Season 2 features Priyanshi Yadav as the grown-up Doree along with Sreejita De as the antagonist as it airs from Monday to Friday at 10:30 pm.
