Bangistan

Ever since the trailer of Bangistan released, the audience has been waiting to get a taste of the comedy. One must step into the shoes of the enemy in order to think like they do. Keeping this in mind, Riteish Deshmukh and Pulkit Samrat turn suicide bombers. The film promises to be a laugh riot with some hilarious dialogue, sticky situations and misplaced hatred. The comic timing of both Riteish and Pulkit make Bangistan a perfect weekend watch.

Mission: Impossible Rogue Nation

Adrenaline junkies have been waiting for this one with a bated breath. The presence of Hollywood hunk, Tom Cruise, is enough to pull in the crowds. Tom continues his role as Ethan in Mission Impossible Rogue Nation. The IMF agency faces threat from Syndicate, an organisation of assassins and rogue operatives who kill to order, but its existence cannot be confirmed. Ethan makes a team to prove Syndicate's existence and abolish it. This one can’t be missed!

Jaanisaar

From the makers of the cult classic, Umrao Jaan, comes another classic film set in the 19th century. Jaanisaar will transport you to an era when romance was all about chivalry and subtlety. Director Muzaffar Ali launches entrepreneur, Pernia Qureshi, as a courtesan who falls in love with a king, played by Pakistani actor, Imran Abbas. The film is set against the backdrop of the anti-British revolution in pre-Independent India. Set in Avadh, the story is a royal tale of Prince Ameer, who is brought up in England, and dancer, Noor.
