Ezhilarasan P

Tamil Cinema Critic & Film Historian

Ezhilarasan P has been writing about Tamil cinema since the mid-2010s, tracking everything from Mani Ratnam's formal evolutions to the realist turn led by Vetrimaaran and Pa. Ranjith. He approaches Tamil film history as continuous with the state's political and cultural life — a lens inherited from the Dravidian-cinema overlap that shaped Kollywood's earliest decades. His writing has covered the studio era through the New Wave, with particular attention to Tamil film music and the Ilaiyaraaja-to-Rahman transition that redrew the industry's sound.
