Street Dancer 3D movie review: This Remo D’Souza directorial is a bland film

Remo D’Souza has directed films like FALTU, ABCD, ABCD 2 and Race 3. ABCD and ABCD 2 were dance-based films and now, Remo has directed one more dance-based film titled Street Dancer 3D. The movie stars Varun Dhawan, Shraddha Kapoor and Prabhudheva in the lead roles (they were also a part of ABCD 2).


The movie is about two dance groups in London; Street Dancer, an Indian dance group, led by Sahej (Varun Dhawan) and a Pakistani dance group named Rule Breakers, led by Inayat (Shraddha Kapoor). Now, of course, it’s India vs Pakistan here. But soon, the movie turns towards the struggles of illegal immigrants in London and how by winning a dance competition these dance groups plan to send them back to their respective countries.

The story is written by Remo D’Souza and he had a good story in his hands. But Tushar Hiranandani’s screenplay and Remo’s narration ruin the whole film. The screenplay is very boring and also quite scattered. The editing is not good at all and there are a lot of continuity issues especially with Varun Dhawan’s hair colour. Remo’s direction is also not up to the mark and he fails to narrate the emotional story.

Coming to performances, Varun Dhawan fails to impress us. He is good when he is dancing but as soon as an emotional scene comes, the actor is really bad at it. Shraddha Kapoor is decent in the film. It is not a great female lead character. Nora Fatehi has danced amazingly in the film, but the movie doesn’t give her any scope to perform as an actor. Prabhudheva is fantastic in the movie. He has performed very well and it is a treat to watch him dance on the big screen especially in the song Muqabla.

Talking about music, songs like Garmi, Muqabla, Nakhra and Mile Sur Mera Tumhara are damn good.

Overall, Remo D’Souza had a good story in his hands, but he failed to convert it into a good film. The movie has a few good dance sequences, however, if you skip this one, you won’t miss anything great.

Ratings: 2/5

India's Uttarakhand implements common civil code

THE INDIAN state of Uttarakhand has begun implementing a common civil code to replace religious laws, a move that has raised concerns among minority Muslims about a possible nationwide rollout by the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).

Indian prime minister Narendra Modi’s BJP has long advocated for a Uniform Civil Code (UCC) to standardise laws on marriage, divorce, and inheritance across India. On Monday, Uttarakhand became the second Indian state to enact such a law.

Harvey Weinstein asks court to speed up retrial amid health concerns

Harvey Weinstein, the disgraced Hollywood producer, pleaded with a New York court to move up his retrial for sex crimes, citing his poor health and the harsh conditions at Rikers Island jail, which he described as a "hellhole." During a hearing in Manhattan on Wednesday, Judge Curtis Farber set the trial date for April 15, but Weinstein, 72, argued he might not survive that long due to his deteriorating health.

Weinstein, who appeared in court in a wheelchair, told the judge he is battling multiple health issues, including cancer, diabetes, and heart problems. He emphasised that every day at Rikers is a struggle, calling the facility "medieval" and claiming he was recently given the wrong medication. "I can't hold on anymore. I want justice for myself and this to be over with," he said.

Ameesha Patel responds to marriage rumours with Salman Khan: "Finding the right partner is key"

Ameesha Patel recently addressed the curious questions from her fans about the possibility of her marrying Bollywood superstar Salman Khan. During a fun Twitter chat, Ameesha was asked about the idea of marriage, especially considering that both are still bachelors and, as the fans pointed out, “good-looking.” The actress laughed at the suggestion and shared her thoughts, acknowledging that people love seeing attractive individuals come together. She even joked that it was a “great reason” for fans to want her and Salman to tie the knot.

Ameesha recalled how after her iconic debut film Kaho Naa Pyaar Hai with Hrithik Roshan, fans were eager for the two to become a real-life couple. When Hrithik announced his marriage, many fans were left heartbroken, highlighting the way on-screen chemistry often sparks similar hopes for off-screen relationships. Ameesha further expressed her openness to marriage but humorously mentioned that finding the right partner has been a challenge.

Coldplay breaks record for India’s biggest concert with 134k attendees; surpasses Diljit, Bieber

Coldplay has set a new benchmark for live performances in India, drawing a staggering 1.34 lakh fans to their concert at Ahmedabad’s Narendra Modi Stadium on January 28.

As part of their Music of the Spheres World Tour, Coldplay performed five sold-out shows in India—three in Mumbai and two in Ahmedabad. The final gig in Ahmedabad became a landmark event, breaking the band’s own global record of 83,000 attendees at a Sydney concert in November 2023. The massive audience at Narendra Modi Stadium, which included fans both in the stands and on the ground, solidified Coldplay’s status as one of the most popular bands in the world.
