Iravin Nizhal

Iravin Nizhal, Radhakrishnan Parthiban’s new directorial, is a really odd experience. I mean, this is a movie that begins in the second half. No! I am not saying the first half is irrelevant or something. The first half of the film is literally the BTS. For a short while, I was confused about whether I… Continue reading Iravin Nizhal

Gargi
