Why does PVR show the teaser etc of year old films in theatre?? Like what's the point -_- isn't it better to just start the films on time instead.

Oh yeah pls feel to DM/post at me for films you can't find on streaming or public torrents (obscure Indian movies and current year movies are exceptions). I can try to look for them as I'm super deep in the high seas. I also have a decent hit rate, haha.
downloading off torrentz mostly. if not available there, I ping @tuhinat221b.bsky.social, who is always willing to help out everyone in this regard

Karan Arjun is a popular movie but to see it getting 105 screens on a single day in Mumbai versus AWIAL, a Grand Prix winner, getting 9 screens... the theatrical scene: distributors, exhibitors have failed us.

In how many cities is All We Imagine as Light releasing? Because even in Delhi, it's like releasing in very limited theatres(that I can find as of now)

From the food delivery company that brought you a brilliant plan to color-code delivery workers' uniforms so they could be targeted for casteist and Islamophobic violence, comes a bold new frontier in capitalism: they charge you to work for them!

Founder culture is a kind of brain rot.

I'm so glad bluesky is finally a happening place, and I can follow most of my twitter mutuals and other cool people here. (Welcome all of you). I just hope it stays this way this time around. ✨

I created a South Asian languages and literatures starter pack! I’m sure I missed many people. If you are a translator, linguist, scholar, or even a dabbler or dilettante, please let me let me know in the comments and I will add you. go.bsky.app/AFjHSX6

A number of artists and creators have made their home on Bluesky, and we hear their concerns with other platforms training on their data. We do not use any of your content to train generative AI, and have no intention of doing so.

Hullo. We've just moved here. We're a book account based on the 2011 book Why Loiter? Women and Risk on Mumbai Streets.
We will post mostly on gender and cities.

Life would have been so good if I didn't have to worry about studies, employment, life and just had the option of reading good books-- all kinds, and watching nice films and just do that
