Does the GOT petition really matter ?
We are just a single episode away from the end of Game of Thrones, and yet closure is far from reach. As the buildings of King’s Landing crumbled, so did the final vestiges of the restraint that fans had been exercising since the infamous Episode 3 when the Night King and his army were decimated….

The Mad Queen | GOT Season 8 Episode 5 Roundup
Since the very moment Cersei decided to sit on the Iron Throne, her fate was sealed. It was only a matter of time when she would face Dany in battle that would decide the ultimate victor, the winner of the prize everyone had been clamoring for since Season 1 – the Throne. This is when…
Detective Pikachu is not the Pokémon movie you wanted but it’s still a ton of fun | Review
Let me get this out of the way. Even though I am a 90s kid, I have never followed the Pokémon phenomenon. When the mobile phone AR game Pokémon Go was released by Niantic in 2016, I was invariably among those people who picked up their noses and judged the hordes that came out onto…
The True Heir | GOT Season 8 Episode 4 Roundup
The long night left a lot of collateral damage in its wake including two of the most misunderstood characters in the series.

Laakhon Mein Ek Season 2 is even better than the first | Review
After riding a wave of success in the comedy circuit through his raw, quirky, anecdotal sets, Biswa Kalyan Rath is now set to crack the limited series landscape.

Last Stand of the North | GOT Season 8 Episode 2 Roundup
The last episode brought together “old friends” when Jaime Lannister stepped foot in Winterfell after a long journey and came face to face with Bran Stark after years. Jon also learnt his true name from Samwell in the most matter-of-fact way possible. We also saw him becoming a bone of contention between Sansa and Danny…
TVF’s Kota Factory is the reality check needed after the Student of the Year 2 trailer release | Screengobblr Shorts
Around 10 days ago, Karan Johar dropped the trailer of Student of the Year 2, where chiselled jaw-line adorning boys and girls partake in a grand scuffle for the title of the best student. 6 days later, The Viral Fever’s Kota Factory released just in time for a reality check of sorts, depicting the scramble…
The legend of La Llorona and why it’s worth a watch | Review
Motherhood is a beautiful thing, and yet, painful when exposed to the persecution of life. One of my favourite horror films in recent time on this very theme is Andrés Muschietti’s Mama where two toddlers survive a car-crash and are taken care of by the spirit of a mother who had lost her children many…
