  Maqbool A film by Kaleidoscope Entertainment Pvt. Ltd Watch time- 2 hours 41 minutes Available on- Disney+Hotstar, YouTube  Rating- ⭐⭐⭐⭐ View this post on Instagram A post shared by Mamta Gupta (she/her) (@maggu_3050) Maqbool 2004 Cast- Irfan Khan, Tabu By Vishal Bhardwaj Genre- Literary Prerequisites- have walnuts! Because the movie is tougher to crack. The most important question throughout the film was  Nimmi- Miyan, our love was pure, wasn't it ..? Maqbool- yes our love was pure Believe me Nimmi asks the hardest question here. How far is it to fall in love? Till what end is true love? What are the limits of love? Who is the bad one in the story?  Maqbool leaves me with a new definition of love. Which is pretty strange! It is deep. It is confusing and it is beyond...... Maqbool is a film based on the literary work "Macbeth" of Shakespeare. Maqbool truly holds the drama, tension and heavy work of storyline along. The starting 40 mins of the ...

SHREK

 SHREK View this post on Instagram A post shared by Mamta Gupta (she/her) (@maggu_3050) 'You are beautiful' said Shrek to the ugly princess Fiona....(closing the fairy tale book) 😌😌😌 This is a very beautiful lesson of life that is imparted so intricately into humankind. This animation is taking the audience to feel themselves in the swamp of the ogre! The donkey is a character that resembles one less acknowledged friend in real life. This fairytale was a little different, instead of a handsome prince an ogre rescues the princess. And Yes, the princess is ugly sometimes. And they fall in love. The curse isn't physical but sewn into the mind deep. It breaks when the princess and ogre, true lovers kiss each other. The beast that guards the princess away too helps them get together. This isn't a regular fairy tale. Enjoy with popcorns 😌😌

Reader's Galore   Book Recommendations for all seasons I always wondered if I had someone to guide me through the books to read. How much time I would have saved? How easily would I have discovered which soups I want to swim through?  Sometimes reading something off your genre is fascinating.  Sometimes you want to stick in the good old days.  Sometimes you wish to be unsure about what comes next.  Sometimes you desperately want things to happen. Fun reading begins when you start arguing with the author. You disagree on certain elements. Or can't take the death of your beloved character. The author might not have put put enough reasons to believe in a particular sequence in the series of the story. Sometimes you are happy with them.  Sometimes you want to sit and tutor the author on how the character you have understood should behave.  These are the perks of reading.

THE LUNCHBOX

 THE LUNCHBOX View this post on Instagram A post shared by Mamta Gupta (she/her) (@maggu_3050) An Irfan Khan master piece Reminds me of Mumbai. A hope arises in the lives of a common worker and a common housewife. Due a random error in address of the dabba. The hustle-bustle, the feeling is so real - an excellent Direction of Photography. I won't give much spoiler. The dialogue writing and the storyline are so philosophical yet so simple. A must watch film to understand human emotions. I remove one star for my own discomfort. I didn't wanted to be exposed with so much reality. I know there isn't a happy ending always. But I think I am accustomed to the age old way of film making where it offers some hope than the bitter truth.
