Mubi has a whole new section dedicated to Indian cinema. And it is a fantastic bit of curation. Best place for those who wish to explore that space.

@Thomas Thank you! I'm going to check these out.
Modesty is a great personality trait @derek, but I really wish you'd told me you have your own podcast! It's such a cool thing. 😀

@Thomas That is a big flaw. We like long-winded tales. And then the songs also add to the total runtime. Try Andhadhun. It's on Netflix. It's a quirky crime comedy.

@derek It resonated with a lot of youngsters who have been led to choose only mainstream careers by their parents. We are a collectivist society, so what they family thinks is more often than not taken into account by anyone for any major life decision. This thought process is in flux at the moment, but the movie taught parents and kids it's okay to tread uncharted paths.

@derek Yeah. Subtlety is not a very strong suit culturally for us. I had loved it when it first came out, but looking back it seems to have misled kids into thinking it's okay to forget responsibility towards others and only chase what they wish to do. Puts them in difficult positions.

@derek Did you, btw, like 3 Idiots?

@derek Yeah. The format is getting a little monotonous. The older episodes were far better.
Thanks for the reccos. I'll check them out.

@derek Yeah. Was my first crush. I was all of 6 when I fell in love with him.
