Hello! I'm Komal Biradar, a media student who's a writer and aspiring journalist.
I'm an avid reader and film buff too.
There are few things I enjoy more than noir films or art films by filmmakers such as Charlie Kaufman, Yorgos Lanthimos, Bong Joon-Ho and the likes!
I love anime, art, and analysing media!
