The Invite review – A-list ensemble electrify hilarious couples night gone wrong comedy

-
Sundance film festival: Olivia Wilde, Seth Rogen, Penelope Cruz and Edward Norton are exceptional in a smart and funny winner about sex, marriage and partner-swapping Not enough people managed to see last year’s self-billed “unromantic comedy” Splitsville , a shame for how tremendously entertaining it was and for what it represents at this given moment. A rigorously well-directed, genuinely funny, relatably messy look at two couples dealing with the maelstrom of non-monogamy, it was the kind of smart, well-crafted film for adults we are constantly complaining we don’t get enough of. I had a similar thrill watching The Invite at its sold-out Sundance premiere on Saturday night. Like that film, it is also about two adult couples negotiating anxieties surrounding sex with other people – and also like that film, it’s really, consistently funny and stylishly directed, made with the kind of care and rigidity that comedies just aren’t afforded now. It doesn’t have the same absurdist slaps...

Sunny Super Sound gets a glam and gastronomic makeover; Malaika Arora to open a cafe in Sunny Deol’s iconic Juhu property

-

Sunny Villa in Juhu, Mumbai is a go-to place for celebrities as well as journalists. Owned by the popular actor Sunny Deol, it houses Sunny Super Sound, a preview theatre and two post-production suites. In January, the celebs and media persons were in for a surprise during their visit to this iconic place as the much-loved canteen area was shut. A new F&B area was erected on the other side of the premises. Many assumed that the canteen area would be revamped and be back to its original place. Bollywood Hungama, however, has learned that it’s not the case.

A source told Bollywood Hungama, “Popular actress and model Malaika Arora is opening her café in the space, where once the canteen stood. The work is going on in full swing and is expected to open next month, that is, March 2025.” The source, however, doesn’t have information on whether it’ll have a new branch of Malaika’s café in Bandra, Scarlett House, or will it be a new eatery altogether.

Scarlett House opened its doors on December 3 and is managed by Malaika Arora and her son, Arhaan Khan. Nestled in a picturesque 90-year-old Portuguese bungalow in Pali Hill, Scarlett House’s menu features health-conscious dishes, including Malaika's signature recipes such as Paneer Thecha and spice-baked Sea Bass.

Sunny Super Sound was in the news in August 2023 when a notice in The Times Of India dated August 20 published by Bank Of Baroda stated that Sunny Villa would be e-auctioned for non-payment of dues amounting to nearly Rs. 56 crores. However, a day later, the auction notice was withdrawn due to technical reasons.

The opening of Malaika Arora’s eatery in Sunny Super Sound marks the beginning of a new chapter in this property, which was established in the late 80s. Thanks to the café, the property, which allows only celebrities and journalists, will be thrown open to the public for the first time.

The Miracle Club review – Maggie Smith can’t save this rocky road trip to Lourdes

-
Laura Linney is upstaged by older co-stars Smith and Kathy Bates in this sentimental tale about a group of Dublin women who go on a spiritual journey together Who’s up for a golden-hued heartwarmer set in 60s Ireland starring Kathy Bates and Maggie Smith about women with secret fears and dreams going on a church trip to Lourdes and finally finding the real miracle is their new compassion for each other? The answer to this question could well have been … me. I have a liking for a gentle tale and there is nothing necessarily wrong with, just occasionally, showing Ireland and the church of this period with something other than outrage and horror. But The Miracle Club does not at any time, to use a discredited metaphor, throw away its crutches and walk. And it’s painful to note that this is largely because of the way film can’t convincingly use that estimable actor Laura Linney in a central role. She is upstaged by the older, fruitier performances and doesn’t hold her own with a more seri...
