Our Fault review – ultra-glossy Spanish step-sibling melodrama is too bland to be annoying

-
Third film adapted from the romance novels by Mercedes Ron, originally written in Spanish, feels clunky and cliched This is the third film in a series, after My Fault in 2023 and Your Fault in 2024 , that have been adapted from the Culpable trilogy, romance novels by Mercedes Ron, originally written in Spanish. It’s obviously aimed at a specific market that expects a certain blend of melodrama, softcore sex and lush lifestyle porn, and (more importantly) is invested already in the trilogy’s story. Given those parameters, it probably delivers – although the dialogue, at least judging by the subtitles, is super clunky and cliched. Complete outsiders coming to this cold may be a little baffled by what’s going on, since this concluding instalment makes no effort to fill in any blanks. But even total newbies will get the gist that heroine Noah (Nicole Wallace) still has feelings for her ex Nick (Gabriel Guevara) – who also, somewhat disturbingly, was once her stepbrother, although their ...

Fans left heartbroken as several Dil Chahta Hai’s shows get cancelled at Aamir Khan film festival

-

Aamir Khan celebrated his 60th birthday and on this occasion, the Aamir Khan film festival was held in cinemas across the country. As part of the celebrations, his 22 memorable films were re-released - Dangal, 3 Idiots, Lagaan, Hum Hain Rahi Pyar Ke, Raja Hindustani, Ghajini, Akele Hum Akele Tum, Andaz Apna Apna, Taare Zameen Par, Sarfarosh, Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikandar, Talaash, Fanaa, Dil Chahta Hai, Dil, PK, Dhoom 3, Rang De Basanti, Ghulam, Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak, Secret Superstar and Laal Singh Chaddha. Dil Chahta Hai was one of the films which was expected to get the maximum footfall due to its comic moments, cult following, music etc. Sadly, very few shows of the film took place across the country, disappointing fans.

A source told Bollywood Hungama, “Dil Chahta Hai’s shows were available for booking on the ticket booking apps. But its show wasn’t played on the first two days. It is said that the KDM wasn’t issued. A few shows of the film finally played on Sunday post-noon and that’s about it. There was a heavy demand for the film. The theatres had to issue refund to those who booked their tickets. In some cinemas, Taare Zameen Par and other Aamir Khan classics were shown in its place and patrons were given the option to watch those films instead of Dil Chahta Hai. Some agreed but most of them opted for a refund.”

The source continued, “This is the reason why there are no videos on social media of people dancing to ‘Koi Kahe Kehta Rahe’ or ‘Woh Ladki Hai Kahaan’ in the cinema halls, the way it happened with ‘Balam Pichkari’ (Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani) or ‘Mahi Ve’ (Kal Ho Naa Ho) because barely any shows were played in the country.”

On the weekdays, no show of Dil Chahta Hai has been scheduled anywhere. Patrons are hoping that it’ll be back in cinemas in the coming weekend. The Aamir Khan festival will go on until March 27.

An industry insider commented, “Not just Dil Chahta Hai but even the other cult film, 3 Idiots, is no longer playing anywhere. On the other hand, films that are not as exciting as these two are playing with multiple shows like Dil, Talaash etc. The organizers should have planned this in a better manner and ensured that films with high demand have daily shows.”

Even Andaz Apna Apna didn’t get many shows but patrons are not complaining as its full-fledged release will be happening in April, as confirmed by Priti Sinha, the daughter of its producer Vinay Sinha.

The enigma of Rose Dugdale: what drove a former debutante to become Britain and Ireland’s most wanted terrorist?

-
The case of the English heiress who became an IRA bomber and art thief, even burgling her own family estate, was one of the most confounding stories of the late 20th century. Now it’s dramatised in a new film In 1958, 17-year-old Rose Dugdale was one of 1,400 young women who curtseyed before Queen Elizabeth II in the most prestigious event of the summer’s debutante season. It was the last time that the well-bred daughters of the most aristocratic and affluent families in the country would be presented to the monarch in a ritual that dated back 200 years. Princess Margaret, with characteristic hauteur, would later say: “We had to put a stop to it. Every tart in London was getting in.” For the fiercely independent Dugdale, being presented to the queen was a means to an end. She had agreed on the condition that her parents allowed her to attend the all-women St Anne’s College, Oxford, to study philosophy, politics and economics. Sixty years later she would recall the debutante season as...
