A thread of things i think are underrated and deserve more attention :
1. Patriot, an amazon prime original series - a dark comedy about the life of an intelligence officer trying to prevent Iran from going nuclear. Brilliantly written and executed with a ton of feels, it& #39;s sad how people don& #39;t even know about this one. A must watch.
2. Fargo, an FX series - this one is relatively well known but i don& #39;t see people talking about this. The seasons are not connected but every single season is amazing.
3. El Hoyo(the platform in english), a Netflix original movie - a sci fi thriller about prisoners housed in vertical cells where inmates in the upper cells feed while those below starve.
4. Tumbbad, available on prime - A fantasy thriller set in pre independence era. Everything about this is top notch, the acting, the jumpscares, the eerieness, the writing. Perfect.
5. Karwaan, also available on prime - A feel good movie about a road trip and interchanged dead bodies.
6. Yeh Ballet, a Netflix original - An extremely well executed movie about 2 boys and the struggles they face while wanting to make it in ballet.
7. Peter cat recording studio ( @pcrcdelhi ) - an extremely underrated indie band with some amazing tracks.
8. Lifafa (suryakant sawhney) - this guy& #39;s the lead of @pcrcdelhi, but releases solo songs as well. It takes one or two listens to get used to, but once it does, it& #39;s addictive asf.
9. Aditi Dot. (Goes by Dot. on YouTube) - The amount of raw talent is unfathomable. I hate that her tracks are not available on any streaming service and I& #39;ve to stick to youtube for them, but it& #39;s worth it. Everybody dances to techno and asymmetrical, few of my favourites.
10. Barry, an HBO series - a dark comedy about a hitman trying to make it in comedy. Absolutely love this one.
11. Laal Kaptaan, available on prime - A movie set in the past about a Naga saadhu trying to fulfill a promise. I hate how poorly this was marketed. Everything about this movie is extremely well done. This movie comes from the makers of Tumbbad itself.
12. Blackmail, available on prime - a dark comedy about a husband who finds out his wife is cheating and plans to teach her a lesson. Now this is not perfect but it was a fresh concept and something i genuinely enjoyed. Overall a good watch.
13. Ugly - this @anuragkashyap72 movie is an underrated masterpiece. A struggling actor, searches for his daughter, Kali, after she goes missing. Soon, he and Bose, her stepfather who is also a policeman, begin to accuse each other of kidnapping her.
14. Udaan(2010), available on Netflix - this @VikramMotwane film is absolutely beautiful. Poetic and extremely quoteworthy with brilliant performances, it& #39;s sad how slept on this movie is.
15. Kadwi Hawa - Probably the only movie I& #39;ve ever seen about climate change. Stars @imsanjaimishra and @RanvirShorey. The acting is top notch and the story is heart wrenching. Really makes you wonder. Definitely would recommend.
16. Raman Raghav 2.0 - Again an underrated gem by @anuragkashyap72 about a symbiotic relationship between a killer and a cop. Stars @vickykaushal09 @Nawazuddin_S and @sobhitaD, what else could you ask for?
