Spotlight – Show time with Mitrajit Bhattacharya

The headline of Boston Globe on 6 January 2002 screamed: "Church Allowed Abuse by Priest for Years.

Emily In Paris – Show time with Mitrajit Bhattacharya

If you are a fan of light and breezy rom-coms, spend considerable time on the Instagram and not appointed yet as the official representative to speak against the massacre of the French culture, you will probably like Emily in Paris, the series Netflix dropped last year during the long pandemic break.

Succession – Show Time with Mitrajit Bhattacharya

American Television’s obsession with the Murdoch family is never ending. Succession, the winner of multiple Emmy Awards for its second season, loosely sketches the characters on the Murdoch family and no one is complaining as the makers manage to deliver an engaging drama series.

The Loudest Voice – Show Time with Mitrajit Bhattacharya

When correspondent Geraldo Rivera is caught falsifying his location in Afghanistan, Roger Ailes refuses to apologize, justifying the deceit as “the fog of war”. Sounds familiar in today’s complex geo-politics?

Jamtara – Show time with Mitrajit Bhattacharya

For every disastrous big-budget Netflix India original last year, they had also delivered a surprise gem. Jamtara- Sabka Number Ayega, is amongst the best original series to have hit the streaming platforms in 2020. No identifiable face (barring Amit Sial, who is already a big star on OTT), the novelty of the story/ concept and honesty of portrayal seem to have worked wonders for this well written series. By now, I guess the verdict is clear: On OTT, big stars don’t necessarily work as the focus is always on the characters and stars tend to take away the attention away from the characters. Also, due to long screen time of each lead character, stars who are not necessarily good actors, fall short leading to unrealistic portrayals.

Clickbait – Show time with Mitrajit Bhattacharya

If Manmohan Desai was alive and was directing a whodunnit web series today, he would probably do the Clickbait. Full of masala, interesting characters, countless twists and turns built on a wafer-thin plot, Clickbait surprisingly delivers. Aptly titled Clickbait, the eight-part Netflix thriller series draws you in from the first episode, moves at a breakneck speed, brings in newer characters-all suspects and has an audience-rewarding twist in the climax, mounted in an old school linear storytelling format.

The Social Network – Show time with Mitrajit Bhattacharya

What happens when you decide to revisit a movie after 11 years, made on a phenomenon that decides to change the way you think and act every single day within this span of time?

All the President’s Men – Show time with Mitrajit Bhattacharya

Two green reporters working for the Washington Post, Bob Woodward (Robert Redford) and Carl Bernstein (Dustin Hoffman), research the botched 1972 burglary of the Democratic Party Headquarters at the Watergate apartment complex.

Seemabadhha – Show time with Mitrajit Bhattacharya

Satyajit Ray’s take on the corporate world in Seemabaddha seems even more relevant after fifty years.

The Bold Type – Show time with Mitrajit Bhattacharya

The drama series, inspired by the life of longtime magazine editor and executive Joanna Coles, who also serves as an executive producer of The Bold Type, revolves around the trio of 20-something besties working at a glossy women’s magazine Scarlet.

Zodiac Show Time with Mitrajit Bhattacharya

Zodiac is a compelling 2007 David Fincher film, that deals with the unsolved Zodiac serial murders in 1960s San Francisco- the work of a serial killer who sent teasing clues and letters to the local newspapers.

The Social Dilemma – Show Time with Mitrajit Bhattacharya

Roger McNamee, an early investor in Facebook, delivers a chilling allegation: Russia didn’t hack Facebook; it simply used the platform.

The Post Film Cut by Mitrajit Bhattacharya

There is something about a gritty period drama that celebrates the bond between free press (read: newspapers) and free-thinking humans in the world, even more relevant in a compromised environment like now. The Post, set in 1971, is a Steven Spielberg classic that takes us through a roller coaster ride of how Washington Post publisher Katharine Graham (Meryl Streep) and editor Ben Bradlee (Tom Hanks) decided to defy threats from the Nixon regime and publish the Pentagon Papers, that exposed a massive cover-up involving the US government and Vietnam.

New Delhi Times Film Cut by Mitrajit Bhattacharya

New Delhi Times- a movie well ahead of times- is a rare pure genre film dealing with journalism, a beat missed by mainstream Bollywood altogether. The movies deal with honesty the subject of political corruption, backed by convincing storyline and screenplay, based on credible research. Gulzar, who wrote the film’s screenplay, is clearly at play to provide an authentic framework, the film so needed.

Sardar Udham – Show time with Mitrajit Bhattacharya

Sardar Udham is probably Shoojit Sircar’s best work till date. And his cinematic excellence can be compared with a fine single malt matured in a European sherry cask for 21 years. All good things take time.

Call My Agent: Bollywood – Show time with Mitrajit Bhattacharya

Dhamaka – Show time with Mitrajit Bhattacharya

There is a huge goodwill Ram Madhvani enjoys, both as an advertising and a feature film maker. At least, with the matured cinema lovers on OTT.
