    Also, the popular UA-cam channel CineFix made a video where they discussed the 10 most revolutionary cinematographers which includes the likes of Roger Deakins, Sven Nykvist & Vittorio Stottaro and there they made a special mention for Santosh Sivan. I was so happy to see that his talent was recognized internationally even to some extent ❤😊

      Could you be more prejudiced ? I will call out Film Companion when they act as PR agencies for starlets and a gew of these big production houses. At the same time I will still respect somebody like Santhosh Sivan giving an interview here, I am not going to type something irrelevant to poke fun on somebody else. That is the job of you people. You all think that you are intellectually superior to us but the truth is you all are so deluded and attracted to these people that you can't accept any criticism thrown towards them.

    it was a very diplomatic interview. I liked the interview with lyricists because it opened our eyes and bring something new to the table. I was hoping the same from this interview. I was hoping to learn something new from their experiences. I waited until the last question, but nothing came out.
    Very typical so-called "interview"
    FYI, public is willing to explore more, but do you have something new to give???
