Punctuating their cynical, witty and devastating conversations, we see Albert's flashbacks of a world where he and Stella try and weave a life together. Albert's anger stems from experiences that life has presented to him. It is this anger that is taking him on a journey to settle a score and enable him to lead a life of dignity and hope.

Marudhar Express

Marudhar Express is a film directed by Vishal Mishra. The main case of the film are Kunaal Roy Kapur and Tara Alisha Berry.
Marudhar is the son of his tyrant father, Ashok Pandey. Straight as an arrow and boring as an oyster, Marudhar trudges along in his life, one hopeless day after the other. But Ashok has marriage plans for him and he won't have no for an answer. What follows is a comedy of ridiculous proportions as Marudhar marries the sweet and pretty Chitra from Lucknow. With no experience in dealing with women, let alone a wife, Marudhar embarks on an emotional and equally hilarious journey as he tries to find his feet amidst love, life and family.
The film stars Tara-Alisha Berry, Kunaal Roy Kapur and Rajesh Sharma

The Tashkent Files

The Tashkent Files is an Indian Hindi-language thriller film about the death of former Indian prime minister Lal Bahadur Shastri. The film has been written and directed by Vivek Agnihotri and it stars Naseeruddin Shah and Mithun Chakraborty.
The Tashkent Files is a gripping thriller that revolves around the mysterious death of India's 2nd Prime Minister Shri Lal Bahadur Shastri and attempts to uncover if he had actually died a natural death, or, as alleged, was assassinated. A death mystery unsolved till date, The Tashkent Files brings too many questions on the table. The Indian Prime Minister goes to Pakistan, signs a war treaty and then soon after dies in Tashkent. With The Tashkent Files, director Vivek Agnihotri takes us back to 1960s when the then Indian Prime Minister Lal Bahadur Shastri passed away just hours after signing the Tashkent agreement. While it is said that Shashtri died due to a heart attack many of his supporters and family members believe that his death was a conspiracy and a planned murder. This is a death mystery unsolved till date. Was the cause of the death a heart attack or poison? Immediately after the former PM's death, the family members of Shastri officially requested a post-mortem to the then acting Prime Minister Gulzarilal Nanda. But the post-mortem was denied. Trying to seek the truth behind one of 'the biggest cover-up in Indian history' Agnihotri hoped the film might have an answer. It is strange that India, the biggest democracy in the world, has no information and document to uncover the mystery behind Shastri's death. This issue has been raised in Parliament for the last 50 years and yet, we are trying to find out the truth.
The film has Naseeruddin Shah as PKR Natrajan, Mithun Chakraborty as Shyam Sunder Tripathi, Shweta Basu Prasad as Raagini Phule, Mandira Bedi as Indira Joseph Roy, Pallavi Joshi as Aiysha Ali Shah, Rajesh Sharma as Omkar Kashyap, Vinay Pathak as Mukhtar, Pankaj Tripathi as Gangaram Jha, Vishwa Mohan Badola as Justice Kurian Abraham, Prakash Belawadi as GK Anantha Suresh, Achint Kaur, Yusuf Hussain, Prashant Gupta as Vivendra Pratap Singh Rana and Ankur Rathee.
