I love it when an independent film (yes I’m still making them) of mine gets the promise of a good release! Not only is my film “Line Of Descent” opening the @nycsaff, but it will also get a US theatrical release by Gravitas Ventures on the 13th of December. This film is too racy and too real for an Indian theatrical unfortunately, but it will premier exclusively on Zee5 in India, the date is yet to be decided. It is Directed by Rohit Karn Batra and produced by @guylouthan. Besides the fact that it has some very great actors like Brendan Fraser, Ronit Roy and Neeraj Kabi, I was most excited to see Mr. Prem Chopra on screen after such a long time. My grandmother used to say of Mr. Chopra, “he’s a villain in reel life but such a gentleman in real life”. And today I am in the same film as him. This one’s for my granny!!! @zee5premium.

Andy Murray: Resurfacing (Amazon Prime Video)

A new documentary charts Andy Murray's return to tennis, after the Scot injured his right hip two years ago.

Tiffany Haddish: Black Mitzvah (Netflix)

Having recently connected with her father and discovering he's an Eritrean Jew, Tiffany Haddish is ready to explore her Jewish roots in this Netflix special, and is even throwing herself a bat mitzvah to celebrate, as well as learning Hebrew. The stand-up special sees Haddish cover everything from fame to the time she received a jumpsuit from Beyoncé(!) and her infamous New Year’s Eve set.

Cake (Netflix)

One of the beauties of new titles being dropped on Netflix is that you end up coming across lesser movies which might have released a few years ago, but did not generate enough buzz for us to be aware and watching. One such title coming up this weekend is Cake, a film starring Jennifer Aniston. It released in 2014 and wasn’t a box office success, but Aniston's rare dramatic performance received positive reviews and brought her nominations for the Screen Actors Guild Award and Golden Globe Award.

Taking Lives (Netflix)

Taking Lives is a 2004 American psychological thriller film directed by DJ Caruso and starring Angelina Jolie and Ethan Hawke, with supporting roles by Kiefer Sutherland, Olivier Martinez, Tchéky Karyo, Jean-Hugues Anglade, and Gena Rowlands. Loosely adapted from the novel of the same name by Michael Pye, the film centers on an enigmatic serial killer who takes on the identities of his victims.
