‘Cinderella’ (Amazon Prime Video): It may be getting some flak for its storyline — which deviates from the original and is somehow worse — but this movie is a charmer thanks to its music. It also stars some stage favourites such as Camila Cabello, James Corden and Idina Menzel. Forget the plotline, but do stay for the show.

You might dislike Ranaut’s off-screen antics on social media, but there’s no denying that she’s a powerhouse performer. We hear Aravind Swami as superstar-turned-politician is also in top form here.
