Kanu Behl’s Agra (Prime Video) is a masterclass in capturing the claustrophobia of the Indian household. It’s a raw, magnified look at patriarchy and sexual suppression. #IndianCinema#hindi@KanuBehl@saregamaglobal

Exclusive 🚨:Vetrimaraan, tamil director about Dhurandhar 2
Translation: Today, everything turns into propaganda it has the power to influence memory. We all know who was most affected by demonetization and many lost their lives standing in queues But that impact changed through hate propaganda in dhurandhar 2.
GOOD TO SEEE EVERYONE COOKING DHAR AND HIS BJP PROPAGANDA 🔥😭
My Titan.
My faith.
Love.
Guide.
Mentor.
My heart.
Go well, mumma.
Until you birth me again.
My eyes shall always seek that irrepressible smile, that warm chuckle, that bear hug, those burning curious eyes. Forever alight.
Thank you for lighting my soul 🙏

An absolute honour to meet you Mr. President @EmmanuelMacron! Heartening to see your unwavering support for cinema and culture at large. Here’s to more collaboration between India and France!
Why does the alternative rise? It rises because the old order—trembling at the edge of its own exhaustion—has closed its gates and posted its sentries. It has decided, in the secret councils of its fear, that the future shall be admitted only on its terms, and that no new face, no new voice, no new wound shall be allowed to enter and disturb the sleep of the powerful.
In this the cinematic storytelling that was once a temple where the human soul might confess itself without shame, only one kind of story is now granted the splendor of mass revelation. The complicated story, the dangerous story—the one that dares to trace the long, bloody, and sometimes tender encounter between East and West, between the colonizer’s dream and the colonized’s nightmare, between what we were told we were and what we actually became—that story is refused admittance. It is too honest. It asks too much. It might make the audience remember that they are human, and therefore accountable.
What is permitted instead is the jingoistic roar, the anthem of the tribe, sometimes raised to the level of high art by craftsmen who know exactly what they are doing and still choose to do it. It flatters. It reassures. It turns the wound into a medal. And the people applaud, because the alternative is to look at the wound itself.
But the outcasts—the ones who were never meant to sit at the table—have been listening. They have felt the door slam in their faces. They have heard the polite explanations that amount to a death sentence: You are not commercial. You are too difficult. You are not one of us.
And so they have done what the rejected have always done since the first slave picked up a broken tool and made it play their song . Technology does not ask for a pedigree. It does not care about accents or bloodlines or the right schools. The system that spat them out has now handed them the sword. And they will use it to cut through the lies, to tell the stories that were never meant to be told on any screen the old masters control.
Because the truth or alternative truths once they find a way out, do not ask permission. They will simply arrive.
