Anand L Rai and Dhanush combination is always magical! After Raanjhanaa, expecting another masterpiece. The Banaras connection in their films creates such authentic storytelling.

Respectfully, while I appreciate the cultural elements, I wish filmmakers would explore other Indian cities too. Banaras is beautiful but we have so many diverse locations across India that deserve screen time.
