Critics are an important part of the film ecosystem, whatever their personal or political preferences, and they shouldn’t be disrespected for doing their job, just as filmmakers shouldn’t be disrespected for making the films they believe in, imho.

Burger anglos have a keen eye tbh. They accurately gauged that an industrialised Hindu india with massive population base and a long civilizational history was a threat on par with Japanese Imperialism. Notice that this observation in state dept report cautioning about rise of

💯 I foresee the same - India is going to do exceedingly well in the 2030s and 40s to become a developed country by 2050s. The great Indian "short squeeze" is going to occur in the coming years. A short squeeze occurs when short sellers are forced to cover their losses as the

That’s too simplistic an explanation. In his own words, Ramanujan learnt the secrets of mathematics via dreams in which the presiding deity of Namakkal - Namagiri Thayar blessed him. For him, mathematics were a form of devotion to the Devi. He unfortunately perished soon after

So Kuldeep sent me on a wild goose chase on Ather last month. I have been learning about them - an interview here, an annual report on NotebookLM, stock analysis on something else, even a scooter test ride - and I must say this has been a very positive experience. The high point

Agreed. Here's the advice I give my son (who is 14): Some of the most valuable skills are systems thinking, functional decomposition (being able to tackle large problems by breaking them down) and building instinct for how to abstract away complexity for others. This is not

Americans just cannot accept that many of them are actually bottom-of-the-barrel racists who are incredibly active on the internet. They'll keep blaming foreign bot farms while most racist accounts on this site are actually Americans, as the country-of-origin feature has shown.

We measure life by what we lack, never by what we’ve endured,yet endurance is the true proof of progress.

Court overturns ancient Hindu tradition at the Sabarimala temple. Modi respects the court order, refuses to impeach the judge. Court okays ancient Hindu tradition at the Thiruparankundram temple. Stalin rebukes the court order, rushes to impeach the judge. But Modi is fascist.

Does a single Pakistani critic not think about the 26/11 scene? That was a real recording. The terrorists were Pakistani. The handlers were Pakistani. The movie rightfully showed that. Do y'all not have any shame whatsoever? And btw, there are no "adaab" greetings in the movie.

imagine watching saving private ryan and instead of discussing speilberg's genius real-time recreation of a war-torn omaha beach, you end up talking like "omg german soldiers are shown very hostile in this film bro, it's an american propaganda movie". imagine watching godfather

Hakla khan is a congressi to the heart. The only reason he is not behaving like an out and out congressi is due to the image and Hindu fans in India. Otherwise if congress would have been in power, he would have gone full blown in making pro Pakistani films.

The internet was honestly the best thing to happen to films. It humbled a lot of film critics who did more ideological gatekeeping than actual film analysis.

Explains a lot. He’s taken the INC from a respectable centre-left party to an unelectable extreme-left party, reduced to double digits like the CPI-M. This shift further left will reduce it to a single digit party - like the CPI-ML

Ajay Kamath Anupama Chopra Not a *crime*. She hasn’t been arrested or charged with any crime. Stop being so hyperbolic and wrong

When you truly love someone you...

Nikhil Mehra Rang De Basanti was also pro-establishment. It targeted NDA Govt and was released during UPA era. These people don't even bother to get their facts right.

Last quarter I rolled out Microsoft Copilot to 4,000 employees. $30 per seat per month. $1.4 million annually. I called it "digital transformation." The board loved that phrase. They approved it in eleven minutes. No one asked what it would actually do. Including me. I

I have never seen as much outcry about Delhi air pollution as this year This is good We need citizen pressure for a cleaner environment Also goes to show : governance becomes an issue only when BJP comes to power Nobody cares what happens under liberal governments.

Cause they are potential customers my boy. Why do you think reels on Insta is still surviving? Cause tiktok is banned in India and every tiktoker puts up a reel for their Indian audience.
