About Jubliz
Bollywood and Hollywood in one feed: what to watch, who is in it, where to stream it.
What we cover
Jubliz is written for the audience, not the industry. Our subject is what you actually watch: the film worth your Friday night, who is in it, what it is about, how it did, what has just arrived on streaming, and who is winning what once awards season starts. We cover Bollywood and Hollywood side by side, in the same feed and with the same weight, because that is already how our readers watch. An evening that opens with a Hindi release finishes with an American series, and there is no good reason for a masthead to pretend those are two separate worlds with two separate readers. Jubliz has not started publishing yet, so what you are reading is the plan set out plainly rather than an archive, and the sections listed above are the sections we launch with. One boundary matters more than all the others. Jubliz does not report the business of filmmaking. How a film is financed, cast, scheduled, sold territory by territory and put onto screens is the beat of our sister masthead Filmi News, which covers Indian cinema as a trade for the people who work in it. The two of us will often write about the same film. We ask whether it is worth your evening. They ask how it got made and whether it returns the money. If your question ends in a booking, it is ours. If it ends in a contract, it is theirs. Jubliz is published by SUKH SANDHU PTY LTD (ACN 679 292 392, ABN 49 679 292 392), an Australian company.
How we work
We watch it before we write about it, and when a piece rests on a trailer, a teaser or a promotional event rather than the finished film, that is the first line of the piece and it is not called a review. Publicity is labelled as publicity and never dressed up as reporting. Collections and viewing figures are repeated only when we can say who counted them and how, and a claim we cannot source is left out rather than softened into a maybe. Reviews say who a film is for, then whether it does what it set out to do, and the reviewer's own taste is declared rather than smuggled in as authority. Spoilers sit behind a clear warning, always, including in headlines and newsletter subject lines. The stars section is about work and public life. We do not publish home addresses, family details, health information or anything sourced from a stolen phone, and we do not launder rumour into reporting by attributing it to a social media post. Coverage cannot be bought: no junkets, no gifts, no paid travel, and anything commercial is marked as advertising at the top. We buy our own tickets and pay for our own subscriptions.
Corrections
We fix errors on the page, with a dated note at the foot of the story saying what was wrong and what it is now, and a note at the top as well when the error went to the point of the piece. On this beat the common mistakes are names, credits, transliterations, release dates and streaming availability, so a correction always carries the right version rather than only confessing the wrong one. If we said a title was streaming somewhere it is not, the note names the service it is actually on, because a reader who spent an evening looking for it needs the answer and not an apology. We do not quietly rewrite a published sentence and we do not delete a story to make a mistake go away. Anyone can report an error through the contact page and we reply whether or not we end up agreeing.
