Akash Deshpande

Akash is a film critic who uses writing as a means to share his passion for cinema and television. He loves listening to all sorts of music and discovering new artists, while trying to stick to his daily reading routine, expanding his cinematic palette, and obsessing over any indie film that catches his attention, be it ‘Aftersun,’ ‘Another Round,’ or ‘Movern Callar.’
