It has been a whopping 30 years since an Indian filmmaker competed for the Palme d'Or at Cannes !!

Shaji N. Karun (in 1994) with his Malayalam film Swaham.

Here's how Sanskaari Ajeet bharti responds to me vs How he starts crying while responding to Rajput Samaj for abusing them.
Happy that these Right wing abusive trolls are exposing themselves by displaying their upbringing.

I believe that 1/3rd of the twin population is actually living as their sibling and don’t know it. Like they got switched during bath time and never went back.

These two car thieves have only one way to avoid getting prosecuted now. 😂😂

Hey Deepansh Duggal,

I found out about this around 4 a.m. and then slept. By the time I got up, it had blown up, so I've been calling people to figure out what happened.

Before I say anything else, let me clarify a two points.
1. The director, Kannan Iyer, and the Editor are not…

The dismissive response by Sony Pictures for a copy of their claimed disclaimer for 'Aankh Micholi' speaks volumes.

Next Friday, data on a survey we conducted amongst the Disabled will be shared with SC urging for guidelines to prevent humiliation of PwDs in cinema.
