By Neerajaa Raghuraman I am not understanding the joke universe is trying to play on us with these mass deaths and injuries. Though there might be a lot of discussion at macro levels, I directly get into heart level discussion here. I think people should be allowed to love without restrictions.

This article is the third in a series of random reminiscences of the recent decades of Kollywood. The first and second are here. By Srinivasan Sundar Chennai 600028 (2007, Venkat Prabhu) It is surprising that a cricket-crazy city had not rolled out any memorable film based on the game until Chennai 600028 stormed the arena. The more you think of […]

Spoilers ahead… This assured film is a chronicle of contrasts: man versus woman, blind faith versus practicality, progress versus status-quo… Fire In the Mountains runs just eighty-something minutes and it’s Ajitpal Singh’s debut feature. It premiered at the 2021 Sundance Film Festival, and is centred on a family in a remote Himalayan village. On the […]

Spoilers ahead… Fahadh Faasil shows us how a thinking performer can freshen up a familiar role, but the film belongs to three women from three generations: Anjana Jayaprakash, Viji Venkatesh, and young Dhwani Rajesh. In Vinodayathra, a flawed but essentially good-natured man learns a bunch of life lessons from the people around him. In Jomonte […]

By Jeeva The USSR despite its flaws, if anything was considered world over as a force that could threaten the unholy interests of the rich and the ultra-rich. The ultra-rich elite of the 20th century was neither a restricted, national entity nor just a bunch of industrialists harmlessly running their business operations within their narrow […]

By Vishnu Mahesh Sharma @ vishnumaheshsharma@gmail.com We have seen so many films where the hero meets the heroine when the heroine is accomplishing an act of theft. Case in point Amar Akbar Anthony, Parvarish and Thupparivaalan. In these kind of films, this portion, apart from giving the heroine melodramatic reasons/motives for theft, doubles up as […]

By Kanhu Kishore I want to tell you a story. A story probably worth telling, at least I think so. Some names are changed because well, it’s a story. So, let’s start. Yeah, let’s start. But where to start, I don’t know. I am in this situation where I feel shitty all the time. […]

By Salini Senthil A lack of outrageous fanfare before the release seems to be the modern indicator of silently well-made, small-budget independent movies, in our current time and age. After a silent 2018 made silent waves through theatres to my heartwarming appreciation (i was not a fan of the triumphs The Kerala story saw in […]

Spoilers ahead… For about a half-hour, I was in comedy heaven. But these situations are not pushed enough. They are not milked enough for jokes. After a point, the writing becomes super-convenient. In her first film, Kumbalangi Nights, Anna Ben was stuck with a psychotic brother-in-law. Since then, she has been thrown into a freezer […]

Spoilers ahead… It’s refreshing to see the messaging about religious tolerance come right out of the events rather than being put out as preachy dialogues. Very early in Daredevil Musthafa, we see this line: “For the first time, the fans of a writer have produced a film.” The writer is Poornachandra Tejaswi, and the fans […]
