Remembering Vedanayagam Sastriar, the prodigious poet of Thanjavur

Konkona Sen Sharma, Manoj Bajpayee Strike A Wonderful Duet In Deadly Broth
A just-deceased man’s phone rings. The caller is another dead man. That aptly signals the end of the opening episode of Killer Soup, a deliciously off-the-wall crime series created and directed by Abhishek Chaubey. The owners of the phones are dead but the warped connection lingers on and impacts the course of the insanely twisted eight-episode Netflix series. The freakish is par for the course here. As more people die, each life lost casts a shadow, literally and figuratively, on those that survive. A Latin sign outside a mortuary in the fictional Tamil Nadu hill town that Killer Soup is...
