Introduction	Since the very beginning of the web, I have been weaving content supportive of my interests in English and Malayalam literature, postcolonial novel, world cinema, art, Buddhism and Vedanta. After about fifteen years of such miscellaneous efforts, I realized I had been wasting time and pulled the plug on all my websites without even bothering to keep a copy, although some of the pieces seem to have remained undead. With this entry, I am starting over, modestly, mostly to provide a meeting point for friends, my students, and who knows, readers.
Interests	Literature, history, and philosophy.
Favorite Movies	"Devi" Satyajit Ray, "Cries and Whispers" by Ingmar Bergman, "Elipathayam" by Adoor Gopalakrishnan, "The Godfather I and II" by Francis Ford Coppola, "Andrei Rublev Rublev" by Andrei Tarkovsky, and every film by Woody Allen
