Rahu Ketu review: This Varun Sharma-Pulkit Samrat starrer has too much noise, too few laughs

Rahu Ketu review Cast: Varun Sharma, Pulkit Samrat, Shalini Pandey Director: Vipul Vig Star rating: ★★ Haywire, as defined by the Oxford dictionary, means something that spirals out of control, turning chaotic and unorganised. That is perhaps the most accurate way to describe Rahu Ketu. Rahu Ketu review: Varun Sharma and Pulkit Samrat try their best to elevate this comedy.

The two men are fictional characters who literally come to life, thanks to a magical book being written by Manu Rishi’s character. Set in Himachal Pradesh, Rahu and Ketu are originally created to bring down corruption through their very presence. Instead, they gain a reputation for leaving chaos in their wake wherever they go. Enter Meenu, played by Shalini Pandey, whose sole ambition is to grow weed and sell it for quick money to Mordechai (Chunky Panday). When these wildly …

Shalini Pandey recalls chilling incident when South director barged into her van while she was changing: ‘This is a girl who has just done her first film…’ | Bollywood News

Although the Justice Hema Committee report exposed the extreme discrimination and exploitation faced by women in the Malayalam film industry, its findings are, unfortunately, just the tip of the iceberg.

Recently, actor Shalini Pandey shared a harrowing experience she faced while working on a South Indian film, when its director barged into her vanity van while she was changing. Mentioning that, as an outsider, she initially did not have much knowledge about the industry, Shalini explained that such incidents taught her to set firm boundaries early on.
