Interesting concept but #Kallam was let down by a convoluted finale. Perhaps a more experienced director and editor at the helm would have made this a memorable thriller. But overall, a good effort ✅

Pleasantly surprised to spot my not-so-common Indian name pop up as a movie character's name in a major 2025 Malayalam drama, a police superintendent no less. Producer Edward Anthony does a fine job in this cameo, his first acting gig. #OuseppinteOsiyathu (Joseph's Will)

Where can I watch the Carry On series of British comedy films from thr 1960s and 70s? Are they streaming on any OTT in India?

Just finished watched #PokerFace and I think, despite somewhat weaker cases than the stellar first season, it remains one of the best shows. I would pretty much watch Natasha Lyonne in anything. And such wonderful guest cameos. Really hoping Cynthia Erivo wins an award for hers.

The best thing about #KaalidharLaapata (2025) is the talented child actor Daivik Bhagela who outshines Abhishek Bachchan in a film with a lot of rough edges. I hope Daivik scores an award for his spellbinding performance as an orphan who befriends a stranger with dementia.

Was watching the 1986 comedy #BackToSchool where Paxton Whitehead (the professor) describes a #widget as a "fictional product" to Rodney Dangerfield in Business 101. That was the first I was hearing it unrelated to its current usage as a software application. #TIL

Loved the jugalbandi in this scene. #AapJaisaKoi is a spiritual sequel to #MeenakshiSundareshwar (2021) by Vivek Soni and Justin Prabhakaran., paying homage to Kolkata this time like they did for Madurai. Madhavan, at 55, plays a plausible 40-year-old virgin with a lot of charm.

Probably in the minority here but my favourite Lewis Capaldi song is one that never made it to the Top 50 in the UK Singles Chart. Anyone else a fan of A Cure For Minds Unwell and wondering why it wasn’t more popular?

Deeply saddened by the passing of Tom Stoppard. His plays & philosophy have been a huge influence on me. I discovered his writings when I was a student in Kolkata. Interestingly, he got his surname when his Czech mother married Kenneth Stoppard in 1945 in Kolkata when he was 8.

Three-year-old Indian boy becomes the youngest #chess player to earn a #FIDE rating. At that age, I was happy spinning the wheels of my toy car. It’s unfair how Gen Alpha keeps moving the goalposts. #SarvagyaSinghKushwaha
