My Bias, My Boss review: A devoted fangirl, a CEO and a former K-pop idol fuel this delightful workplace rom-com

Published by Parlour News

My Bias, My Boss web series review Cast: Kim Hye Jun, Kang Hoon, Cha Woo Min, Gong Ji Ho, Kim Ah Young, Hwang Sung Bin, Shin Yu Na, Heo Joon Seok Director: Park Ji Hyun, Jeong Da Hyung Rating: ★★★ K-pop has inspired quite a few K-dramas over the years. Shows like So I Married an Anti-fan, Imitation, Dream High and Doona! have all explored different sides of idol life and fandom. While some leaned more into fantasy than reality, Imitation remains one of the few dramas that genuinely captured what it means to be a K-pop idol. Going by its first two episodes, the new series My Bias, My Boss seems to be heading in that direction too. My Bias, My Boss review: A fangirl’s dream collides with office chaos in this charming K-drama. (tVN) TvN has premiered a new workplace rom-com, based on Seong Eun’s hit Naver webtoon My Oppa is an Idol, which is produced by CJ ENM’s Studio Dragon.

Alpha teaser review: Shiv Rawail rightfully chooses emotion over spectacle, Alia Bhatt embracing gore is delightful

Published by Parlour News

The teaser of Alpha, Yash Raj Films’ long-awaited spy thriller, begins in a manner evocative of Luc Besson thrillers. The film has a older mentor, young female mentee dynamic that were signature of Besson’s Leon and La Femme Nikita. The staging of Alpha’s scene, featuring Bobby Deol and Alia Bhatt, is similar to one in Nikita (featuring Anne Parillaud and Jeanne Moreau). If it was an homage, it is a good choice; if it’s a copy, then it gets at least one thing right: the focus on the actors’ eyes. Alpha teaser review: Alia Bhatt turns action hero in this YRF spy thriller. Alpha teaser has its moments of action and violent deaths. But amid all this, director Shiv Rawail never loses focus on what is important – the emotion. The framing of the scenes – even the action set-pieces – keeps Alia’s face and emotions dead at the centre of it all. That alone is enough to help Alpha stand out from the YRF Spy Universe stable. It may follow a formula, but at …

Akshay Oberoi on Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari: ‘It’s a delightful change with

Published by Webster

Known for his intense and unconventional performances last few years in projects such as Fighter, Illegal 3, Broken News 2, Ghuspaithiya, and Kisko Tha Pata, Akshay Oberoi now embraces a lighter, more family-friendly character in the much-anticipated film, Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari. Produced by Karan Johar and directed by Shashank Khaitan, the film sees Oberoi portray a realistic boy-next-door role, unlike his previous dark and gritty characters. Reflecting on this transition, the actor says stepping into the Varun Dhawan, Janhvi Kapoor, Sanya Malhotra, and Rohit Saraf-starrer has been an incredibly refreshing experience for him. “Over the last few years, I have explored intense, layered characters—roles that were dark, complex, and psychologically demanding. But this film allowed me to tap into a completely different energy. I play a warm, charming, and family-oriented character, which is a delightful change, but it also comes with a twist. I’m excited for audiences to see this side of me. This has been such a clutter breaker. The kind of roles that I am getting now are so different from …

Binny And Family review: Anjini Dhawan makes a delightful debut with a heartfelt, though overstretched drama | Bollywood

Published by Webster

Binny And Family review: Sometimes, it’s the film you go in with absolutely no baggage of hit songs, big stars, or franchise factor, that ends up surprising you. Binny And Family is that film. The debut vehicle of Varun Dhawan‘s niece Anjini Dhawan, the tagline ‘Har generation kuchh kehti hai’ fits perfectly here. Also read: Pankaj Kapur opens up on generational gap, talks about Binny and Family: ‘There should be effort from both sides’ Binny And Family review: Pankaj Kapur steals your heart in the film.
