Made of movies, books and literature. Occasionally there's a penchant for social commentary.
Of course I’m interested in the personal lives of the royal family that facilitated the colonisation of my country 200 years ago. Quite naturally, the worldwide hit show that spills the beans and serves us hot tea brewed with the well-hidden secrets of the British royal family is my favourite. Let’s admit – it’s one...

Indian entertainment industry has upped its web series game in the past few years and Mirzapur came in as the icing on the cake. Given the plot and the cast, it wasn’t a wonder that it was an instant hit among both action loving and story loving audiences because it balances pretty much all aspects... Continue Reading →
The title evokes a lot of curiosity. I assumed that 'The anatomy of a scandal' on Netflix would be an insane thriller with a whole lot of minute details that leave space for intelligent guesswork and shocking twists throughout. But this six episode limited series does not reach those expectations. That being said, it's not... Continue Reading →

I’d waited patiently for the finale, because Manifest is one of the series I got really, really invested in. I’ve explained the why of it in the above mentioned article. All the questions that had...

I get addicted to series with incredible story lines easily. Throw me a bone with an out-of-the-box plot that asks too many questions and poses a logical challenge to solve at the end, and I’m hooked until the very end, through every second of the series. I don’t even get bored of the sub-plots and... Continue Reading →
Every time there is a series centred upon a classic 'heartless' protagonist, I've wondered how much is left to explore in that niche. Everything gets old eventually, isn't it. One day the world had to get tired of heartless characters that actually need therapy but are living super interesting lives and having people fall head... Continue Reading →
I would list out ‘running out of period dramas to watch’ as a legit fear. I love them so much that almost every other form of content seems lacklustre in comparison. And I don’t even distinguish between period dramas – any kind of it will do. Romance, action, fiction, non-fiction, bio-pics, movie, web series, from... Continue Reading →
Stranger Things on Netflix is approaching its finale in 2025. Here's a recap of what we loved in the last four seasons.
