Kaithi is not your usual mass-action movie that requires a packed theatre and a cheering crowd. This movie can be savored, even on a solo watch in the comfort of your home.

Malayankunju
In the post-COVID world, where theatre going experience became synonymous with watching action-packed blockbusters that demand you to shout, scream and applaud; it takes immense courage and a lot of passion for artists like Fahad to come out with movies like Malayamkunju. Calling the movie a survival thriller would be misleading as this movie hasContinue reading “Malayankunju”
Dear Friend
A quick decision to glance through the early minutes of this movie ended up in me spending two hours on a stretch and finishing it. The movie was really good in capturing the bachelor life in Bangalore which I was strongly able to relate to.

‘The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo’ was a wonderful read that made me feel like I was living out in Sweden for the last one week. Though the genre is defined as crime fiction, the book doesn’t limit itself to that. While the main plot revolves around a murder mystery, Larsson manages to talk aboutContinue reading “The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo”
A Journey Across States
Why do we reflect back into the past? Why do we write about journeys completed long back? Is it to share our experience or is it a homegrown remedy for ourselves for this unnamed, unexplainable ailment that revolves around boredom? I would say it is a bit of both! I had always been a travel-sleeper.Continue reading “A Journey Across States”
