Do Patti movie review: Kriti Sanon delivers her career-best performance, Kajol shines despite limited screentime

Kriti Sanon and Kajol give an unpredictable, engaging, and though-provoking crime drama that is backed by Kanika Dhillon’s strong story, engaging screenplay, and powerful dialogues. Kriti Sanon, Kajol in Do PattiDirector: Shashanka Chaturvedi

Cast: Kajol, Kriti Sanon, Shaheer Sheikh, Tanvi Azmi

Where to watch: On Netflix

Rating: 3.5 stars 

Twin sisters, Shailee and Saumya (Kriti Sanon) have always been at loggerheads. Shailee always envies Saumya for getting everything she doesn’t deserve. Later, Saumya finds a suitable man Dhruv Sood (Shaheer Sheikh), and Shailee decides to snatch it from her. Will Shailee destroy her sister’s home or is Saumya hiding the baggage of an abusive relationship from the world? The twisted tale of love and deceit forms the plot of Do Patti. 

Siblings’ love-hate relationships have been explored several times. The enmity between brothers and sisters is done to death. However, Do Patti scores because the movie isn’t just about the rivalry of sisters; it also highlights an important social issue in an unpredictable entertaining manner. Do Patti grabs your attention from the very first scene, Saumya and Dhruv survive a paragliding accident. However, upon the arrival of inspector Vidya Jyoti aka VJ (Kajol), Saumya alleges that Dhruv tried to kill her in mid-air. Dhruv gets arrested, and we are in for a rollercoaster ride. 

The story of Saumya and Shailee is unfolded by a flashback, narrated by Maaji (Tanvi Azmi) to Vidya Jyoti. Maaji seeks VJ’s help in putting Dhruv behind bars, for physically assaulting Saumya time and again. Saumya is a victim of domestic violence and Dhruv’s anger issue. Shailee’s enmity towards Saumya has also taken a toll on the latter. You should witness how she overcomes these challenges on the screen. 

An actor’s true test happens when they’re offered double roles. Dilip Kumar from Ram Aur Shyam, Hema Malini from Seeta Aur Geeta, Sridevi from Chaal-Baaz, and Kangana Ranaut from Tanu Weds Manu Returns are a few memorable examples of actors acting the dual roles. Kriti Sanon has added a beautiful feather to her cap. She has delivered her career-best performance. Kriti has made sure to differentiate Saumya and Shailee with their characteristics. Saumya is a shy, homely, timid lady. Whereas, Shailee is a badass, sexy, bold, borderline bitchy with a devil-may-care attitude girl. You will feel the pain of Saumya and will hate Shailee on several occasions, and that’s where Kriti wins.

Kajol as Vidya Jyoti is a scene-stealer. Though she has less screen time than Kriti, she makes sure to leave an impression or keep you glued. Vidya Jyoti is one such character that deserves her own spin-off, and the film leaves ample scope for it. She also plays a lawyer, and her courtroom scenes are worth applauding. Undoubtedly, Kajol is the true Lady Singham. Apart from these two, Tanvi Azmi and Brijendra Kala shine in their characters. Shaheer Sheikh, the chocolaty boy on TV, will surely win haters with his performance. Shaheer as Dhruv will be despised by the moviegoers, and that’s another victory for the actor. 

The film’s story, screenplay and dialogues are written by Kanika Dhillon, and she deserves a special mention for narrating a known social evil most entertainingly. When you think that the film has reached its conclusion, a big twist will leave you stunned, and that’s the beauty of Dhillon’s writing. The movie is co-produced by her with Kriti, and they truly celebrated women without being too preachy. 

There are a few shortcomings. After a point the climax becomes predictable, you know how it will end. Kajol’s character requires depth or a strong background, but that can be explored if the makers would like to turn the film into a franchise. The songs are average, but Kriti’s performance makes it worth watching. Overall, Do Patti is a pleasant surprise, that will move you and leave you stunned. Don’t miss it.

I’ve seen 24 new horror movies in 2024 — here’s the 5 you need to stream this Halloween

I’m a huge horror fan and a cinema obsessive, which means that every year I see a heck of a lot of scary movies in theaters. In 2024 (to date), I’ve seen 24 horror movies at my local multiplex and I have a very good idea of what new horror flicks you need to add to your Halloween week marathons.Trick or StreamWelcome! This article is part of Trick or Stream, a seasonal series in which members of the Tom’s Guide staff share what they’re planning to watch for Halloween 2024 and their takes on the horror genre, with the goal of helping you find great movies that you might want to stream during spooky season.The last 10 months have included some of my favorite horror movies of the decades, but also some efforts that made me chuckle with embarrassment more often than leap out of my cinema seat. So, to ensure you only stream the very best new Halloween movies this year, I’m picking out my top five favorites.One final note, “The Substance” would have been included but it’s only available in theaters (I’ve limited my picks to films that can currently be streamed), so if your local cinema is screening it this Halloween, trust me it’s worth braving October weather to see. Now, let’s dive into the best new horror movies of 2024.‘Alien: Romulus’

Alien: Romulus | Official Trailer – YouTube

Watch On
Let’s start with a pick that I probably could have told you would make the cut right at the very start of the year. For transparency’s sake, “Alien” is my favorite film franchise of all time, so I have a pretty huge bias for any new entry in this series, but I’m far from alone in loving this latest encounter with the world’s most deadly creature. “Alien: Romulus” boasts the franchise’s best critical reception since 1986’s “Aliens,” and it deserves all those plaudits and more.“Alien: Romulus” is a legacy sequel done right. Yes, its fan-service winks are a little egregious in places, but it plays out like a greatest-hits compilation of the franchise to date, and its new ideas are surprisingly impactful too. Plus, the leading performances from Cailee Spaeny and David Jonsson are phenomenal, and director Fede Álvarez has such a tight grip on the tension that he manages to make the Xenomorph genuinely scary all over again.Buy or rent “Alien: Romulus” on Amazon now‘Late Night with the Devil’

Late Night with the Devil: Official Trailer | Shudder – YouTube

Watch On
I love movies that play with novel methods of presentation, so naturally “Late Night with the Devil,” which is primarily filmed to mimic the look of a late-night talk show, grabbed my attention from minute one. However, most remarkably, it’s not just the filmmaking craft that is on an expert level in this supernatural chiller, but also the performance from lead David Dastmalchian. The actor is electric and tackles some tricky material with remarkable ease.This horror focuses on the 1977 Halloween episode of a fictional talk show called “Night Owls” hosted by Jack Delroy (Dastmalchian). The once-successful program is falling behind in the ratings, and in an effort to boost interest, Delroy plans an ambitious seasonal special that involves inviting a supposed possessed girl onto the set for a live demonstration. What follows is an episode taping full of terror as events spiral out of control, and Delroy’s dark past is exposed to the world.Watch “Late Night with the Devil” on Hulu now‘Longlegs’

LONGLEGS | Official Trailer | In Theaters July 12 – YouTube

Watch On
Between the horror and thriller genres, you can decide for yourself which category “Longlegs” most comfortably fits into. I’ll just say it’s one of the year’s very best movies, and it had the audience in my opening weekend screening so transfixed that you could practically hear people holding their breath during the most intense sequences. Right from the skin-crawling opening, it’s clear that “Longlegs” isn’t playing around and as you are sucked further into its twisted web, things only get more oppressively tense and disturbing.Maika Monroe (who is a bit of a horror favorite of mine having also starred in “It Follows” and “Watcher”) plays FBI Agent Lee Harker, who is tasked with a seemingly impossible job, track down a serial killer who doesn’t appear to be physically present at the scene of their crimes. The movie’s unnerving mood may be offputting to some viewers, but Nicolas Cage’s role as the eponymous Longlegs is reason enough to stick around and see this one through to the end.Buy or rent “Longlegs” on Amazon now‘I Saw the TV Glow’

I Saw The TV Glow | Official Trailer HD | A24 – YouTube

Watch On
If you’re looking for a traditional horror movie filled with jump scares and grised killers, “I Saw the TV Glow” won’t be for you. This moody horror drama shows a lot more restraint and is really all about the practically palpable ‘90s vibe. But don’t mistake this Jane Schoenbrun movie for being merely style over substance, while you have to work a little for the answers, dig into the truths hiding below the surface and you’ll find a character-driven narrative that packs a real punch.Owen (Justice Smith) is an awkward teenager who bonds with his classmate Maddy (Brigette Lundy-Paine) when she introduces him to a surreal late-night TV show called “The Pink Opaque.” As Owen becomes more obsessed with the events depicted in the show, his grip on reality begins to loosen, and he’s sent spiraling when Maddy suddenly disappears. And if that wasn’t bad enough “The Pink Opaque” is then canceled on a dramatic cliffhanger leaving the isolated teen feeling completely unmoored.Watch “I Saw the TV Glow” on Max now‘Immaculate’

‘Immaculate’ official trailer – YouTube

Watch On
There’s a strange phenomenon in Hollywood known as “twin films”, which occurs when two movies with eerily similar plots are released in quick succession. This year, that happened with “Immaculate” and “The First Omen.” The latter was more successful both critically and commercially, but for me, “Immaculate” was the more devilishly enjoyable of the two, and not just because its ending is totally unhinged. It also convinced me that Sydney Sweeney has a promising future in the horror genre, and I hope she explores more roles of this nature very soon.In “Immaculate”, Cecilia (Sweeney) is a young American woman who travels to Italy to take her vows and become a nun. Devoted to her faith following a near-death experience in her youth, Cecilia joins a historical convent in the stunning Italian countryside in good spirits. But her joy at being in such a holy setting is tested when strange occurrences begin to hint that not everything is right in this place of worship, and the convent’s dark secrets soon surface.Watch “Immaculate” on Hulu nowMore from Tom’s Guide
