I first watched "The Tortoise Under the Earth" at an IHC screening a year ago, and it left a lasting impact. Watching it again last month, I found it resonated with me even more deeply than before. Here is what I wrote about the film: northeastfilmjournal.com/tortoise-under… @rumrainroad

@Sadharan_ Thank you 🙏

@rumrainroad Lovely chemistry! Best of Luck for your future projects! I will be keeping an eye out for your movies! After a long time I came across such imagery and cinematography. Keep it up sir! 👍

@rumrainroad Sir, are the protagonists real life couples?

@rumrainroad I am watching your movie sir and am wondering why such movies are not being made more and more.
