Shan Prasher is one of India's sharpest film and culture commentators, known for his unfiltered roasts, fearless industry takes, and refusal to play along with Bollywood PR machinery. With years of experience as a writer, video creator, and YouTuber, he brings a rare insider perspective on the films, stars, and shifting power dynamics shaping Indian cinema today.

• The South's actor-worship culture and the casteism Bollywood won't touch

• Why Indian films can never match Hollywood despite the money

• Ramayana, Ranbir Kapoor, and the biggest gamble Bollywood has placed in years
