Durgesh Tiwary’s View : In my view Darbaan and Torbaaz are the movies to watch out for in this month as they seems amazing and I am really excited for them.
In web series I will prefer Sons of the Soil and Shrikant Bashir. Sons of the soil is based on the journey of kabaddi team, Jaipur Pink Panthers and while Shrikant Bashir trailer is very interesting and produced by Salman Khan.
