The Enduring Love for Giant Robot Anime in Japan
Japan's fascination with giant robots, or "mecha," has become an essential part of its cultural identity. From their origins in the 1960s to their evolution into modern-day franchises, giant robot anime has captivated audiences and left an indelible mark on Japanese pop culture. This genre not only reflects Japan’s technological aspirations but also serves as a powerful storytelling medium, tackling themes of war, heroism, and human ingenuity. Over time, the appeal of mecha has extended beyond television and film into tourism, with life-sized statues, theme park attractions, and merchandise drawing millions of visitors each year.

Mere Husband Ki Biwi: Movie Postmortem
An actor in Indian cinema who has not been able to fit into any character till date, whenever you see him on screen, it seems that the wrong person has been cast in the wrong role and finally when that day came when this single actor did a better job than many big superstars of Bollywood, the people who watched the film disappeared. On the other hand, there is a heroine who has a world record of flop movies. There are not as many words in the dictionary as the number of her films that are removed from the theatres in three days. Now, the third character is even greater than these two; she is the only actress whose career is going in reverse mode, and even those who used to like her have forgotten her name. Fourth, the most unlucky director in India makes comedy movies for families; the subjects are also different, but apart from the family, no one wants to watch them even alone. Now imagine when these four great personalities will come together in a film, Bollywood will be in trouble. Partridge in front, partridge behind, partridge on the left, partridge on the right, tell me how many partridges, as many people have heard the name of this film. Mere Husband Ki Biwi, the film whose title itself is a big scam, was released a week after Chhaava to compete with the film. This is the first Hindi film in history whose trailer is better than the film, meaning people will go to watch the trailer after watching the film. In the beginning, before the release, they started a buy-get-one offer, so I saw the movie two to three days ago in the morning. There were only two people in the theatre, do you know who they were? Me and my loneliness. A terrible accident occurs, which causes the girl to develop a strange illness. Her brain forgets some memories, but not all of them she has only forgotten the last five years, while she still remembers everything else. A man is sitting outside the hospital and crying loudly. He is in shock because his wife is alive. It means he is not a killer. He doesn't want to kill his wife. He just doesn't want to live with her. Now Ankur Bhai, who got out on a duck in his first innings, gets Antara, i.e. Rakul Preet, in the second innings, who is a doctor by profession. You must have understood that this is a simple old Bollywood formula - Pati, Patni aur Woh - a tragedy for three people that becomes a comedy for the rest of the world. Now the twist is that these three people are dancing together at a wedding. Who is the groom and who is the bride, you have to guess that by watching the movie. By the way, there is another character in this story whom people know very well; he is also called cheap Vicky Kaushal, and he is the one who finds comedy in this tragedy. Straight forward, let me tell you that this film is not made for the theatre experience; nothing can be more accurate than this review. If it was released on direct OTT, then there would be no need to run a Buy 1 Get 1 offer, and a few people would have watched it, and it is certain that some of them would have liked the film as well. Because it is a very simple film, you don't have to think about anything. Only those people who watch the film with their brains will regret it. Look, the concept is great. This has been going on in Hindi cinema for a long time. Many people have built their careers on this type of movie and gained recognition from it. The only loophole in Arjun Kapoor's film is that it is neither a proper comedy film nor a painful love story triangle. It is just a family drama somewhere in between. The bigger suspense than how the story of the film will end is guessing who will do the worst acting in this two-and-a-half-hour-long film. Think about the condition of that cinema in which a comedian is doing better work than the other actors. Even if the acting is kept aside, the story of the film has more holes than Titanic. There, the girl was saved, but here, the film will not be saved. There was an interesting subject - turning the clock five years back in the life of Husband, Wife and Woh and making the present clash with the past. So many ideas come to mind after thinking about it. But the presentation of the film is very bad. The weak writing was covered up with forced songs and the acting was supported by poor Harsh's one-liners. Mudasar Aziz's previous movies, like Happy Bhag Jayegi, had funny content, but this time, there is only overacting and a clichéd story. Movies like De De Pyaar De were still liked by the family audience because they had entertainment and masala. They tried to show something different. Honestly, I don't know why I am reviewing this movie because the people who made this movie may not even know why they made this movie. Maybe just for the multiverse. So, boss, it will get 1.5 stars out of 5—1 star for the subject of the film and half a star for its "comedy star". Negatives: Poor acting, predictable climax, useless dialogues or forced songs without chemistry. Take your mobile and book the ticket right now for Chhaava, I promise you will feel proud of yourself when you return home.

XOXO, A Love That Never Was. Content Warning.
Some on-screen couples tend to have undeniable, foreseen love laws that are composed of chemistry, which makes us presume that they’ve transcended the given script. Matthew Settle and Kelly Rutherford, who played pivotal roles in the series Gossip Girl, are truly phenomenal and created a chef d’oeuvre. Even after 13 years, when the show ended beautifully, to this day, the majority of the people in this fandom are still captivated by their smoldering glance at each other.

5 Podcasts I Love
I'm starting to do a lot more about myself and that is because I feel like I'm getting a bit distant with my audience. Everything has become about something else and there's really hardly any room for me anymore. I know, I know, I'm probably not the most interesting of people - most of what I do is read and work, cook and watch movies. I know you're also probably thinking 'I actually do not care about you that much, I'm here for the book reviews.' And I apologise if that is you. I've been waiting a while to publish a list of my definitive podcasts. I think some time ago I said I would do ten in my list and I did try - but the article got so long that I considered that nobody would read it. I have since cut it down to five absolutes.
