Bollywood and its obsession over toxic masculinity in films doesn’t seem to be ready to change ways anytime soon. We are still basking in the afterglow of the Diwali festivities when the industry has come up with yet another movie that portrays the romanticising of obsession and entitlement under the guise of passionate love. The film ‘Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat’ (The Obsession of a Lover), directed by Milap Zaveri and co-written by Mushtaq Shiekh, is out in theatres from 21 October 2025. Along with the casting of Harshvardhan Rane as Vikramaditya, a politician with power, and Sonam Bajwa as Adaa, a vibrant young woman, who is very much into the idea of love without any restrictions, the film looks very promising (just in posters).
