About Love 2019
It feels like you’re quietly observing real life, almost like you’re invisible in the room. The way it portrays everyday moments tainted by subtle misogyny is painfully relatable, especially if you’ve had firsthand experience. These women, so accustomed to mistreatment, see even the tiniest acts of decency as a win.
It was raw, honest, and deeply unsettling.Translated from by -
The Big City 1963
The title "The Big City" doesn’t hit the same as Mahanagar. It feels flat, while Mahanagar is layered aka the great city captures both its allure and its decay. It’s not just a setting, it’s a living, breathing paradox, a character in itself, dazzling you while quietly breaking your spirit.
Calcutta is a labyrinth of contrasts. Shiny storefronts push progress while crumbling homes cling to old-school values like a last defense. The city laughs at itself but refuses to break…Translated from by

All We Imagine as Light 2024
a tender yet brutal film that will stay long with me after watching. The dreamy soft fluorescent blue visuals and the melancholic scores add so much depth to the movie.
We all have a Prabha chechi in our lives, dont forget to thank them!Translated from by -
Monkey Man 2024
It definitely tried to reclaim hinduism for the underprivileged but I really wish it would play more into the actual reality and while it had thinly veiled references to the Babri Masjid Demolition, I wish it was more blatant and more unapologetic.
Amazing directoral debut tho and that score by Zakir Hussain was splendid per usualTranslated from by
