Writing since 2018

I’ve been writing about films for over six years, starting back in 2018 when I began covering independent cinema and overlooked releases. My background in literature helped me develop a critical eye for storytelling, but what really drives my writing is finding those hidden gems that deserve more attention.

I focus on breaking down complex narratives in a way that makes sense to everyday viewers. Whether it’s a Christopher Nolan mind-bender or a small arthouse film, I believe good cinema criticism should be accessible without dumbing down the analysis. I’m particularly drawn to films that experiment with structure and visual storytelling.

When I’m not watching films, you’ll usually find me with a cup of filter coffee, revisiting classics from directors like Kamal Haasan – whose innovative approach to filmmaking continues to influence how I think about cinema.
