Documentaries are always a fascinating watch if they are able to capture the moments in a way that you feel as if you’re there witnessing the things first hand. Amazon Prime released a new documentary ‘All or Nothing – Manchester City’ narrated by Ben Kingsley on 17th August consisting of eight episodes that capture the […]

Mumbai : In Transit
Mumbai is a city for those who know the way. There aren’t many resourceful signages (almost none at the local train stations) and yet everyone simply strides towards their respective destinations. The lean physique of most natives is a testament to their daily exertions in transit and the brisk pace with which they lead their […]
Rhapsodies Chapter 1 : New Delhi
The Sunday sky was hung with heavy rain filled clouds and Café de Art with people who wanted to read and listen to poetry. Verse of Silence had brought these ardent lovers of poetry through Rhapsodies Chapter 1. Café de Art had quite a secular vibe to it with paintings symbolizing different religions lined across […]
Sacred Games : No Spoiler Review
Rating :- 4.5/5 It’s been a while since a genuinely good non-soap opera show came out of India. There are a lot of words you could use to describe Sacred Games. The one that I’m going to go for is bold. Utterly different from anything we’ve seen come out of Indian cinema or TV, the […]
Romeo and Juliet

Ironically, the subjectiveness of ‘normality’ in itself is an abstract. Dealing with such colourful personalities requires one to be equipped […]
Altered Carbon | Review
If death wasn’t a guaranteed phenomenon in our universe, how different do you think our world would have been? The ultimate utopia? No wars fought in the name of god since everyone would be god? Peace and harmony for all of eternity? I, personally, think that the world would be no more different than the […]
Little Maryam| Review
The times that we live in are ironic. While we look at relationships through a kaleidoscope of practicality, every single one of us is looking for that eternal bliss called ‘love’. While some find it tugged in the arms of their loved ones, I’ve always found it in about something that is more than 100 […]
