    Ashwath Marimuthu’s sophomore project Dragon, drawn loosely from his life and celebrating second chances, has been one of Tamil cinema's biggest hits in 2025 at the box-office. One person who was just not surprised at the reception was K.G. Jayavel, who brought to life, as creator and producer, the seminal show Naalaya Iyakkunar (Tomorrow’s Directors) that ran for six seasons from 2009–2020 on Kalaignar TV, and which set out to identify the auteurs of the future.

    Agnyathavasi (Kannada)There’s an oft-repeated phrase people use after watching certain films — it is “slow.” I didn’t understand it then, I don’t understand it now. Labels help no one. Does life move in real time or at an accelerated pace? The issue of pacing strikes the audience only when they aren’t drawn into the world the director and storyteller have created.

    Suzhal—The Vortex season 2 plays a lot of mind games with the viewer. In a nice and intriguing way, though. As in Season 1, the cards keep flipping in every other episode (a total of eight), making you look at what happened and what might happen in a whole new light. Show creators, writers, and producers, Pushkar-Gayatri infuse the storyline with a certain mannvasanai (scent of the soil).

    In his short lifetime of 38 years (1992-1921), Subramania Bharati left an indelible mark on Tamil society. His rousing poetry and prose introduced many to the concepts of patriotism and female emancipation, and enhanced them in those who already possessed it. His love for the country, and towards his Parasakthi, the divine feminine are well-known.
