Forbidden Fruits (2026)
Not every film can make a shopping mall feel both magical and menacing, but Forbidden Fruits challenges that.

Saktinath lives with his wife, two sons and a daughter in a North Kolkata house which was gifted to him by his eldest Son, Bitan, who lives in the USA. Bitan has a family of his own, a wife and a beautiful daughter, Elisa. Just after the announcement of Saktinath`s only daughter`s marriage, the family came to know of Bitan`s passing due to stage III Cancer. Saktinath couldn`t do but mortgage his house as nobody else in family could help in no way, Bidhan was freshly recruited, and Biplab, a Collegian. After two years, Bidhan got married to Aparna, a schoolteacher in South Kolkata. Biplab also got engaged with Riya, an excellent Classical singer.

Netflix's new thriller Apex, starring Charlize Theron, puts a twist on survival horror. Despite its setting in the beautiful- yet-dangerous Australian wilderness, Apex is not a movie about man vs. nature. Instead, it’s woman vs. man. While checking out the title card and its unpretentious Netflix release might lead viewers to believe Apex is just another celebrity project churned out of the streaming machine, Apex - whether by luck or by intention - is a consistently harrowing film about the reality of being a woman in a public space.
