Film & Series

This space holds everything I write about cinema and series, from Tamil films to global storytelling. Some pieces are reviews, some are interviews, and some are reflections shaped by years of watching, discussing, and working around films. I return to cinema for its emotions, structure, craft, politics, and the way it mirrors parts of life we often miss. This is where I try to understand why stories stay with us long after the screen goes dark.
