I wrote about Karthik Subbaraj's DOROTHY, its proximity to the Madurai gangster genre, the queerphobic online backlash and that much discussed ending. Link in reply.

I wonder if there'll be an end to Tamil filmmakers' fascination with Tarantino. Do they ever move on?

“You’re a good guest, Raja Karuppusamy.” Once upon a time, in a studio in Chennai, two men got together to talk about Quentin Tarantino’s love letter to Hollywood. 🎬 Coming tomorrow at 10 am. ❤️ (Raja Karuppusamy, Quentin Tarantino, Brad Pitt, Leonardo DiCaprio)

What a deliciously corny addictive show. They really hit upon the perfect recipe. Nothing about this screams realist, its world is not even populated. Just compelling palace intrigue with great characters.

At 10:30 pm last night, reports that @odisha_police detained Dr Randall Sequeira, doctor to Adivasi communities, and Laxman Naik, leader of affected villages opposing @Vedanta_Group’s mining in Niyamgiri and Sijimali. Their whereabouts are still unknown, no access to a lawyer.

NEW | Vedanta seems to be attempting to revive its stalled Niyamgiri bauxite mining project despite the Gram Sabhas’ rejection of mining in 2013, raising concerns that the Odisha government may be using the criminal justice system to weaken tribal resistance and clear the way for corporate interests. @Ayaskant_Das reports. frontline.thehindu.com/envir…

Niyamgiri Mining: Vedanta Renews Push Despite Tribal Opposition

Vedanta renews its push to mine Odisha’s Niyamgiri Hills despite tribal opposition and a 2013 Supreme Court-backed rejection. Arrests raise concerns over land rights.

Nelson's Jailer 2 is fun and functional. Review: livemint.com/mint-lounge/art…

‘Jailer 2’ review: Rajinikanth looks right at home in Nelson's sequel | Mint

‘Jailer 2’, like the first film, is a rare late-stage Rajinikanth work that doesn't demand kinetic stunts and cuts around him, and allows the actor to project an easy magnetism

Extreme weird feeling to be in this Loki vs Nelson sandai. Epdi irundha naa etc. But Nelson, as good as he is, is going to just settle for Jailer 3? I really hope he branches out from here. @ChiniZyaada
Aditya Shrikrishna@gradwolf12 Apr 2022
Full confidence in Nelson and Anibro ("epdi irundha naa" moment). Enjoy everyone, will catch it next week youtube.com/watch?v=KOwDgUzi…

Jailer 2 much better than 1 but that unfortunately means people will reach this terribly wrong conclusion. Unless it's just Rajini fandom, it makes no sense.

The DMK hasn’t spoken a word on SIR, or on the scandalous allegations against Gyanesh Kumar. They should be the last people to complain anyone else being BJP’s B team.

The movie has some fun meta moments and homages to classic Tamil cinema. One of them here, where Nagesh himself is being explained of a scam like Anbe vaa. @TheOtherBanana have a detailed podcast series on all these stuff from the movie
