The twelfth episode of Koffee with Karan was a lukewarm affair, even though it was packaged to be a nostalgia trip down memory lane. Legendary actresses Zeenat Aman and Neetu Kapoor graced the Koffee couch, only to remain tight-lipped about their time in the Hindi film industry in the 1970s. The whole episode was just the actresses praising each other, with nothing new or exciting being shared about their work experience in a male-dominated industry. What a tiring way to end the season. Koffee with Karan season finale, though, had more than two guests, and all were invited to roll out the Koffee Awards of the season. They were to judge and pick a winner out of all the best episodes that had aired.

Content creator-actor Danish Sait, who is known for his work in ‘777 Charlie’ and ‘One Cut Two Cut’, has shared his opinion on the increasing use of generative AI tools in the content landscape.
The comedian-content creator, who recently attended the YouTube Fanfest in Mumbai, also mentioned that both long-format and micro-format content will find their own course and either of them won’t impact each other as they both have a different set of audience and evoke different sensibilities in the viewers.
Danish said: “The impact of generative artificial intelligence depends on the kind of content creator you are. Let’s assume that you are a graphic designer with AI tools then it will make designing very easy.
“I can quote from my personal experience, my wife is a graphic designer, and she has been using the AI tools and while it has made her job easier, it has also resulted in more work.

ReviewThe funniest moments in the film have to do with language confusion. Sowmya RajendranScrewball comedies when done right can be utterly delightful. Now streaming on Amazon Prime Video, French Biriyani, directed by Pannaga Bharana and written by Avinash Balekkala, has a quirky premise that promises to entertain. What better way to showcase the chaos that is Bengaluru – with its many languages, traffic problems, and protests – than through the eyes of a harried outsider? A French man named Simon (Sal Yusuf) lands in a soup only because his name sounds like 'saaman' (and the possible innuendos that can be conjured out of this have a place in the narrative too). He's hoping to attend a conference in Bengaluru but ends up with auto driver Asgar (Danish Sait) who takes him for a ride through the city that he never asked for. Danish Sait has a special place in the hearts of...

The excitement, hype, experiments continued but with all the highs and lows the report card shows that mediocrity is not only accepted but also celebrated. Thanks to the advent of digital technology that has attracted many to become filmmakers, there was a record number of films that got released in Sandalwood. As of mid-December, the count of released films was around 215 and the year is expected to close with approximately 225 films. The huge number has not only hampered the quality of films but also has led to chaos in scheduling releases, with seven to eight films fighting for screens every week. One major positive that was noticed this year was the tremendous reach of Kannada films.

ReviewBut ‘Humble Politician Nograj’ is just not irreverent enough.Rakesh MeharEarly on in Humble Politician Nograj, the title character – ably played by Rj and comedian Danish Sait – sings: “Maadodella maadthira, naavu maadidre problemmu (You’ll do everything you want, but when we do it, it’s a problem).” The telling illustration that follows this points out, “You’ll give bribes, but if we take them it’s a problem.” With lines like that early in the film, you’d expect Humble Politician Nograj to grow into a powerful satire that properly pins the blame on all of us for the sorry state of our politics these days. But as Nograj’s story unfolds, you realise that the film is never quite willing to stick its neck out all the way. So, instead of a delicious black comedy that really hits a raw nerve, you end up with a humorous but predictable film that merely repeats the ‘commonsense’ about scamster politicians and gullible voters. Even the film’s most powerful line – that a corrupt politician could not buy all his votes, but must get at least some from honest voters – never goes anywhere beyond stating this truism. To be fair, Nograj’s Machiavellian journey from Corporator to Mla – co-written by Danish and director Saad Khan – is never boring. Indeed, at points the absurdity of the tale does work quite well. When Nograj engineers a power shutdown and then threatens to do himself harm unless his constituents get the electricity they need, for instance, you can’t help but chuckle at the theatrics of such political stunts. In much the same vein is the photoshoot in which he poses with a diya for Diwali, the picture of a goat for Bakr-Eid and ribboned bells for Christmas. Nograj’s political philosophy is fairly simple: tell people what they want to hear and they’ll let you get away with outrageous stuff. Ranged against him is Arun Patil (Roger Narayan), an Nri businessman who jumps into politics out of a genuine desire to do something for the people, but finds himself struggling to play the system. Arun is easily the weakest character in the plot, falling for Nograj’s plots so easily that you are left wondering if such a man can be the great middle-class hope. He often becomes the foil that keeps the film from foraying into more interesting territory by focusing solely on Nograj. In terms of humour too, Humble Politician Nograj sometimes takes the easy way out. While there are some hilarious lines and situational set-ups in the film (a robbery that Nograj attempts in Arun’s office, for instance), there are far too many jokes involving Nograj’s thickly accented and badly structured English. A series of jokes around a homosexual party functionary do not strike a pleasing chord either. But the film stays entertaining throughout thanks to some great performances, including from Danish, who completely inhabits his character. Nograj’s wheezy, slightly disturbing laugh, for instance, is one trait that really brings home the character. Vijay Chendoor as Nograj’s sycophantic assistant and Sumukhi Suresh as the politician’s jolly wife are just as brilliant. Sruthi Hariharan, however, is fairly wasted in the role of Arun Patil’s wife. Humble Politician Nograj manages to hit quite a few funny notes and definitely qualifies as enjoyable timepass. But it leaves you wondering at how much more fun this film could have been if it had been just a tad more irreverent.
