Watching a series with a psychopath as its central character looks pretty problematic when you think about the political correctness aspect of the whole idea. But what is fascinating about this thriller series created by Sera Gamble and Greg Berlanti is that they managed to develop a genuine curiosity in us to know how a… Continue reading You: Season 3

Sardar Udham
At a time when jingoism and hyper-nationalism are getting celebrated even in movies, director Shoojit Sircar came up with a terrific film that is easily a master class on how to make such movies with perfect use of creative liberty and facts.

The new Zee5 release Endravathu Oru Naal directed by Vetri… Continue reading Endravathu Oru Naal

For a third person who observes these events, it might feel very easy to tell them to walk out of such toxic and problematic… Continue reading Maid
