#AshaBhosle’s legacy isn’t frozen in nostalgia—it lives in every skip, shuffle, and sonic detour we take today. She didn’t just sing across genres; she dissolved them, leaving behind a listening culture that values mood over category, instinct over structure, and reinvention over permanence.

If 'Still Alive' is any indication, the future of Indian comedy lies in its ability to remain porous—absorbing influences, responding to context, and resisting ossification.

#AcademyAwards | For decades, #PaulThomasAnderson stood as one of Hollywood’s most revered yet under-rewarded filmmakers. By crowning #OneBattleAfterAnother, the Academy has effectively rewritten its own narrative about one of America’s greatest living filmmakers, writes @benganiwrites cnbctv18.com/entertainment/…

Jessie Buckley is not an actress who settles into a persona. Across musicals, psychological dramas and caustic comedies, Buckley has cultivated a screen presence that feels both feral and rigorously controlled. @benganiwrites buff.ly/oQsggFf

#AccusedReview | #Accused is a whodunnit so undercooked, banal and frustrating, which even Konkona Sen Sharma cannot save, writes @benganiwrites cnbctv18.com/entertainment/…
