Akash Deshpande

A film-critic who loves to share his obsession with cinema and television. Loves listening to music and exploring new artists. Still not over the second season of The Bear and the last scene of Another Round. Big fan of Bill Hader, Donald Glover, Phoebe Waller-Bridge, Ayo Edebiri, and the comedian who graduated from one of Canada’s top business schools with really good grades.
