Vivek Agnihotri remembers dearest friend Satish Kaushik on his sudden demise

Today, the Indian film industry lost one of the most prolific gems it ever had. With the news of veteran actor Satish Kaushik passing away, the entire film fraternity is mourning his loss.

Filmmaker Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri, who has worked closely with late actor Satish Kaushik as he had jointly produced a film titled The Last Show, a human drama, is now grieving for this unforeseen departure of India’s most sought-after artist.


Taking to social media, Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri comes ahead to express his emotions as he writes “अभी कल ही की तो बात थी…

क्या कहें, कैसे कहें…

वो ठठकारे, वो क़िस्से, वो हाथ पकड़ के “विवेक तू समझता नहीं है, बुजुर्गों की बात सुन…”

वो १०००० स्टेप्स का ऑब्सेशन…

वो कहानियाँ, वो फ़िल्में जो बननी थीं…

सब गुमशुदा। सब ख़ामोश।

Om Shanti Satish Kaushik!

Artists like you never die.”

Recently, Vivek Agnihotri’s The Kashmir Files won an award at Zee Cine Awards 2023 for Best Film, Best Screenplay, Best Actor & Best Actor in Negative Role awards.

Meanwhile, on the work front, Vivek Agnihotri is gearing up for the release of The Vaccine War, which is slated to release on August 15, 2023, in 11 languages, making it one of the most promising films ever filmed.

'Akka' review: Keerthy Suresh and Radhika Apte’s battle exposes an uncomfortable truth about power

Highlights

  • Keerthy Suresh and Radhika Apte lead Netflix's five-episode crime drama set in a fictional south Indian region ruled by an 800-year-old sisterhood.
  • The series explores whether women in positions of absolute power can avoid reproducing the oppressive systems traditionally associated with patriarchy.
  • Strong performances, sharp dialogue and stylised storytelling make Akka engaging, although its political ideas are not always fully explored.

What happens when women take control of a world traditionally dominated by men? Does changing the gender of those in power automatically create a fairer society? Netflix's Akka, led by Keerthy Suresh and Radhika Apte, explores these uncomfortable questions through a violent crime saga built around an 800-year-old sisterhood.

Set in the fictional south Indian region of Perunuru, the five-episode series follows a powerful matriarchal community that controls the criminal underworld and the lucrative gold and illicit liquor trades. While its premise offers an interesting reversal of conventional crime dramas, the story gradually reveals that replacing male rulers with women does not necessarily dismantle the systems of oppression they inherit.
