Briefly Reviewed – Vinesh Viswanath’s ‘Sthanarthi Sreekkuttan’
Director Vinesh Viswanath makes a delightful debut with Sthanarthi Sreekuttan, where he sails through one of the toughest jobs in the film business: making a movie with kids and about kids, but also treating these kids the way you’d treat adults. They are not “cute-ified”. He has a remarkable cast of youngsters, and every one […]
