Excited to share this conversation I had with S. Hareesh, Jayasree Kalathil on @HuffPostIndia that is as magical as MOUSTACHE. Read about storytelling, mythmaking, crocodile-hunts, hunger, personal anecdotes of floods as saviour & love for pulp fiction

When the Modi Govt 'repealed' Article 370, it was widely said that J&K will now get RTI, implying that the law didn't exist there before.

It takes a special kind of stupidity to try to sell a bigot as funny while he's being a jerk to his Muslim son-in-law. I can see diarrhea & chubti jalti ghamorian queuing up in front of Akshay Kumar’s door for a makeover to look cute too. #LaxmiiReview huffingtonpost.in/entry/laxm…
