Logout

Directed by Amit Golani, with the brilliant Biswapati Sarkar as the creative force behind this film, comes a brand-new OTT release on ZEE5 today. Thankfully, it didn't hit theaters - Australia is in full vacation mode for Good Friday, making this the perfect thriller to kick off the Easter long weekend.

Logout is a gripping piece that exposes the darker side of social media obsession. #BabilKhan - uff, what a tremendous actor! It feels like his genes truly speak. Irrfan Khan's son, Babil, delivers his best performance yet in this intense thriller.

His solo act keeps the audience hooked as if he's living the role. With a runtime of two hours, trust me-you won't want to miss a single moment. The film powerfully highlights how smartphones have taken control of our lives. It reminds us how we increasingly rely on our devices, forgetting passwords and phone numbers, while our mobiles manage everything. But what happens when one morning, that phone disappears?

Louout explores this terrifying reality-following a 9.8M influencer who loses his phone. And in today's world, losing a limb might feel like the lesser tragedy.

Do watch-highly recommended!

Logout dives headfirst into the chaos of today's social media culture, spotlighting how influencers have stopped creating content and instead, have become the content. The narrative is thought-provoking and uncomfortably relatable in an era dominated by likes, shares, and viral moments.

At the heart of the film is Babil Khan, who delivers an absolutely magnetic performance. With nearly 80% of the screen time, Babil carries the entire film on his shoulders, and does so with the grace and power reminiscent of his legendary father. His expressions, emotional depth, and effortless realism make Logout compelling from start to finish. Truly, Babil rocks and proves once again that he's a talent to watch.

The film's antagonist, a desperate, obsessive fan, adds a decent layer of tension. While the villainous arc could have been more inventive and layered, it still serves its purpose within the story.

All in all, Logout is a solid watch, made exceptional by Babil's standout performance. He doesn't just act but he lives the role. If for nothing else, this film deserves a watch purely for him.

This movie proves that Good films don't need big-budget or any so called "superstar" or any item song. You just need an Impressive script and acting... that's it.

So, it highlights the biggest problems of today's world i.e, mobile phone, smart devices, social media and addiction of internet among youths.

I cut off 1 star because I felt the story could have been more chilling. And the situation could have been more horrible and more intense. But you won't get bored watching this movie.

I really appreciate their performance in the film, mainly Babil Khan and hope people understand the given message and stay safe.

A well thought out movie centered around social media frenzy. The film aptly portrays the growing trend of influencers in our society at large. It showcases that there is a very thin line between passion and obsession and that we should know when and where to step back and not go overboard. A hard-hitting story that makes us ponder that there is more to life than the 'reel world'. The world is getting closer but our true relations are drifting apart. Watch it with your family especially your teenage kids who are engrossed and lost in this fictitious world!

P. S. Babil Khan truly deserves a standing ovation for his fabulous acting prowess!👏🏻

Youths needs to learn that not everything is a phone.

A timely reminder! With technology dominating so much of our lives, it's essential for young people to understand the value of balance, face-to-face interactions, and the world beyond their screens. Encouraging them to explore various interests, engage in outdoor activities, and develop social skills can help them maintain a healthy perspective. What are your thoughts on how to promote this balance in young people's lives?

In today's digital age, many young people are accustomed to interacting with screens and may struggle to disconnect from their phones. However, it's crucial for them to understand that there's a world beyond their devices.

Some potential benefits of promoting balance in young people's lives include:

• Improved mental health and reduced stress
• Enhanced social skills and relationships
• Increased creativity, productivity, and focus
• Better time management and prioritization
• Greater appreciation for nature, community, and real-world experiences

By encouraging young people to engage in activities that don't involve screens, such as sports, reading, or volunteering, we can help them develop a more well-rounded perspective and a healthier relationship with technology.

What specific concerns or issues are you facing with young people and their phone use? I'd be happy to help you brainstorm solutions.
