25th Edition: The metropolis, in its sweep and size, might take a lot out of its inhabitants, but its vast embrace also allows for such love stories to play out unhindered, unfettered. Over time, the definitions of love have evolved in cinema, as in life. nakedtruth.in/2022/05/21/mod…

With Korean movies and shows capturing the imagination of Indians, can remakes of Filipino movies charm their way to success in India? I look at this in today's edition of #Media450. @NakedTruthIn @ayushxgarg nakedtruth.in/media450/a-new…

Media 450: For Indian cinema, the Korean influence has become a part and parcel of daily life in the last two decades, as far as the stories are concerned. But now it may be time to look at a new country. nakedtruth.in/media450/a-new…

In today's #Media450, I do a quick dive into Disney+'s branding outside India, which is quickly turning into a nightmare with too many brands to juggle! @NakedTruthIn @ayushxgarg nakedtruth.in/media450/disne…

Media 450: Traditionally known as a strong “family-friendly” brand, the influence of Disney looms large over Disney+, which is preventing the streamer from attracting adult audiences. nakedtruth.in/media450/disne…

In today's edition of #Media450, I look at the way forward for Netflix, which seems to have hit a wall, globally and in India, as far as subscriptions go. @NakedTruthIn @ayushxgarg nakedtruth.in/media450/netfl…

Media 450: Markets where Netflix is struggling include Indonesia, where Disney+ Hotstar has stolen a march, and—very surprisingly—South Korea, where even the success of Squid Game has not improved its fortunes much. nakedtruth.in/media450/netfl…

Media 450: The auction of the digital rights will not just give a boost to the winner in terms of revenue, but it might also end up redrawing the Indian sports broadcast market. nakedtruth.in/media450/digit…

In today's edition of #Media450 for @NakedTruthIn, I look at the upcoming @IPL media rights auction, and what it spells for India's sports broadcast market in the long term. nakedtruth.in/media450/digit…

Media 450 is back in full force after the trial period ran in November last year. The latest edition dropped today at 8 AM IST. Subscribe if you haven't yet: nakedtruth.in/subscribe/

Where the original Modern Love series excels in showing us the magical side of love in relatively-free setting, each story in Modern Love: Mumbai does a remarkable job of giving us “lovers” who fight against all sorts of prejudices for the freedom to love. nakedtruth.in/2022/05/21/mod…

“Khaane mein sabse aham kya hota hai?”, she asks him. When he replies, “Masale?”, she remarks, “Sirf pyar!” In this latest edition of Reel and Real letter by @ronypatra. Weekend read. nakedtruth.in/2022/05/21/mod…

In this week's #ReelAndReal for @NakedTruthIn, I look at #ModernLoveMumbai and how love stories with multiple narratives have flourished in the Indian city on screen. @RangitaNandy @PritishNandy #ModernLoveOnPrime nakedtruth.in/2022/05/21/mod…

As I've argued earlier for @NakedTruthIn, blindly piggybacking on the "pan-India" films to save theatres is foolhardy in the long term. Content matters. nakedtruth.in/2022/05/07/can…

As the tweet illustrates, perceptions matter the most in showbiz. And this is where the South Indian film industries are collectively scoring over Mumbai. More about this here:- @NakedTruthIn #ReelAndReal nakedtruth.in/2022/05/07/can…

I'm surprised it took this long for this to be announced, but this is something I had called for the #Media450 letter for @NakedTruthIn a few months ago. nakedtruth.in/media450/the-k…
