From 슬롯사이트˜Udaan슬롯사이트� to 슬롯사이트˜CTRL슬롯사이트�, Ranking All Vikramaditya Motwane-Directed Movies From Worst to Best, and Where To Watch Them Online
While 'CTRL' struggles to live up to its intriguing premise, Vikramaditya Motwane슬롯사이트™s earlier films like 'Udaan, 'Lootera' and 'Trapped' showcased his ability to craft emotionally resonant and visually engaging stories. We revisit his filmography in this article and where the Ananya Panday-starrer fits in his journey so far, quality-wise.
Vikramaditya Motwane made a smashing debut as a feature filmmaker in 2010 with Udaan. Premiering at the Cannes Film Festival in the Un Certain Regard section, Udaan wowed international critics before winning over Indian audiences, where it was hailed as one of the best coming-of-age dramas in Indian cinema. Often associated with Anurag Kashyap, Motwane was quickly recognised as a filmmaker to watch out for. While his subsequent films didn슬롯사이트™t match the compelling storytelling of his debut, they still stood out from their peers. His latest film, CTRL, which started streaming on Netflix on October 4, is a cyber-thriller exploring the negative consequences of artificial intelligence and social media obsession.슬롯 머신 사이트 추천슬롯사이트˜CTRL슬롯사이트� Review: Critics Like Ananya Panday슬롯사이트™s Performance But Not Her 슬롯사이트˜Tedious슬롯사이트� Netflix Thriller on Artificial Intelligence.
Ananya Panday stars in CTRL as Nella, an online influencer, with Vihaan Samat as her love interest. The film follows Nella as she lets an AI app control her social media, leading her into a conspiracy with deadly consequences. Much of CTRL is presented in a screenlife format, using laptops, smartphone, and television screens. However, despite its intriguing premise, the film stumbles in delivering a gripping thriller about cyber insecurities.
So, where does CTRL fit in Motwane슬롯사이트™s impressive filmography? In this feature, we rank his feature films from worst to best, excluding web series like Sacred Games and Jubilee. (If included, Jubilee would have topped the list!)
CTRL
CTRL had the potential to be an engaging cyber-thriller about the impact of AI and social media on ordinary people, but it becomes too preachy and lacks a sharp enough screenplay to hold our attention. It슬롯사이트™s easily the weakest film in Motwane슬롯사이트™s filmography.

AK vs AK
Like CTRL, AK vs AK, also on Netflix, leans on an interesting visual and narrative gimmick. The premise, with Anil Kapoor and Anurag Kashyap playing fictional versions of themselves locked in a feud, offered potential for black comedy and satire. While the Harshvardhan Kapoor cameo was amusing and Anil Kapoor was too good, the film failed to build something compelling out of its quirky setup, leaving it rather ordinary.

Bhavesh Joshi Superhero
Bhavesh Joshi Superhero is a vigilante film that almost gets everything right슬롯사이트”except for its casting and a couple of action sequences. The plot, focused on the water mafia, is grounded, and the protagonist슬롯사이트™s motivations feel relatable. However, Harshvardhan Kapoor feels miscast in the lead, and the second half could have used some trimming.

Trapped
While I wasn슬롯사이트™t entirely sold on the circumstances that led to Rajkummar Rao슬롯사이트™s character being trapped in a flat, this survival drama is still gripping. Much of its success rests on the shoulders of Rao슬롯사이트™s brilliant performance and the movie manages to show his character's pitiful attempts to escape his trap in the grittiest manner possible. I also loved how Motwane explores the paradox of a man슬롯사이트™s helpless isolation in a city that never sleeps. Streaming on Zee5.
Lootera
If you ask me my favourite film of either Ranveer Singh or Sonakshi Sinha, I슬롯사이트™d point to Lootera. Motwane and screenwriter Bhavani Iyer take loose inspiration from O Henry슬롯사이트™s short story, The Last Leaf, and add beautiful layers of love, guilt, compassion, and redemption, making Lootera a touching, heartrending drama. Both Singh and Sinha deliver excellent performances, and Amit Trivedi슬롯사이트™s soundtrack is among his best. Streaming on Prime Video.
Udaan
Even after reviewing all of his films, Udaan remains Motwane슬롯사이트™s best to date, setting an incredibly high benchmark that his future movies struggled to surpass. This coming-of-age drama boasts a relatable storyline, touching moments and stellar performances from Rajat Barmecha, Ronit Roy, and Ram Kapoor. You can슬롯사이트™t help but cheer for the protagonist as he takes 'flight' from an abusive relationship, even if his feet remain grounded. Streaming on Netflix.
