Every year brings with it anticipation, excitement, and hope for good times ahead, and two elements that affect all our lives in one way or the other are cinema and books. While some of us watch films or read books to distract ourselves from our daily routines, others do so because they can relate to a certain character or situation. A light-hearted comedy is all we need after a hectic day at work, or an action-packed offering can drive us to take on our own challenges with great determination. While 2017 witnessed some great movies and books in various genres, 2018, too has a fabulous line-up of scheduled releases. Our Feature Story this week provides a sneak-peek at the biggest and most awaited ones of the year.
