Movies & Shows To Watch This Weekend
1. Radhe Shyam
(Streaming on Amazon Prime Video)
Prabhas and Pooja Hegde starrer Radhe Shyam will be getting an OTT premiere within one month of its theatrical release. Bahubali fame Prabhas plays a genius palmist Vikram Aditya, who doesn’t believe in love but believes in the language of the stars. Dr. Prema, played by Pooja Hedge, believes more in science than fate and destiny. Though they are poles apart, they find themselves falling in love. Although the film was released amid a lot of fan frenzy, it failed to impress the critics and the audience.
2. Sharmaji Namkeen
(Streaming on Amazon Prime Video)
Sharmaji Namkeen is special as it marks the last movie of talented actor Rishi Kapoor. The lead character, B.G Sharma is essayed both by Rishi Kapoor and Paresh Rawal due to the former’s death. Freshly retired widower B.G. Sharma has a lot of time on his hands but doesn’t know how to utilize it. The 58-year-old discovers an avid interest in cooking and hopes to open a food joint, much to the dismay of his two discouraging sons. He gets invited to cook for a ladies’ get-together and talk of his skills spreads like wildfire. Sharmaji’s journey toward success sees many obstacles in the form of his status as a single father and his sons, but this determined man stops at nothing.

(Streaming on Disney+ Hotstar)
Starring Shreyas Talpade, Kaun Pravin Tambe is a biopic on cricketer Pravin Tambe. Though Pravin never got a chance to play in the Ranji Trophy or the national cricket team, he never gave up and finally made his debut at the age of 41 in the Indian Premier League. Shreyas, who has earlier played the role of a cricketer in his superhit film Iqbal, plays the titular role of Tambe in the movie.

6. Apollo 101/2: A Space Age Adventure
(Streaming on Netflix)
This animated feature is a perfect concoction of nostalgia, drama, and adventure as it presents a fantastical picture of what it was like living in Houston, Texas during the 1960s. Created by Academy Award-nominated filmmaker Richard Linklater, the film takes inspiration from his own life as a 10-year-old living in Texas during the 1969 moon landing and creates a narrative that blends two perspectives—the first one focusing on NASA and the second one focusing on the kid witnessing the launch from a distance. The story features another layer of flavor as the boy blends a fictional mission to the moon involving himself within his narration.
7. Moonshot
(Streaming on Amazon Prime Video)
In a future where Mars is terraformed, two college students sneak onboard a space shuttle from Earth to Mars in order to be united with their significant others, embarking upon a lively journey that winds up taking them both wildly and unexpectedly off course.
