A new week and a new set of movies and shows! Here we have curated a list of movies and shows that will make your weekend full of entertainment. Take a look!

Darlings - Netflix

Alia Bhatt and Shefali Shah's 'Darlings' is a film that you just can't miss. The dark comedy is from debutant filmmaker Jasmeet Reen and revolves around Alia's character Badru and her mother, Shefali Shah, and how they take a stand against domestic violence.

The film is set in Mumbai and revolves around Alia's character Badru, who is in deep love with her husband Hamza. The innocent Badru's marriage has turned sour, with her husband beating her every other night. Still, she has lots of hope in her life and a beautiful future with her husband.

Her mother, Shamzi, played by the amazing Shefali Shah, has single-handedly raised her only daughter and wants her daughter to leave her husband and live a happy life.

You will love Alia as Badru in every frame; her performance as a vulnerable girl who has chosen to stand against her abusive husband is commendable. The film is filled with humour, an outstanding performance by the cast, and a deep message on domestic violence.
