I updated my list of Bollywood movies on Netflix with one new addition to the catalog. Director Leena Yadav’s Parched is now available for streaming. It won the Audience Choice award for Best Feature at the Indian Film Festival of Los Angeles earlier this year, along with joint Best Actress awards for the main cast, which includes Radhika Apte and Tannishtha Chatterjee.
Two movies are set to expire from Netflix in the coming days: Taal on August 12 and Bhopal: A Prayer for Rain on August 15. I haven’t seen Taal, but Bhopal is worth checking out before it hits bricks.
You really should see Taal. Not particularly groundbreaking but a good story and fine 90s romantic drama. Akshaye Khanna is in reasonably good hair form.
“Akshaye Khanna is in reasonably good hair form.” — that’s a helluva sales pitch, Julia. LOL!
