Beyond Cinema with Nihita
Welcome to Beyond Cinema with your host Nihita Bajaj Kumar. Since childhood, I've been immersed in the world of movies, captivated by the art of direction, magic of music, and power of storytelling. My love for cinema extends beyond just watching; it's a lifelong admiration, exploring direction, delving into the art of writing, uncovering archives, and venturing behind the scenes. This fascination has inspired me to embark on a journey to explore the nuances of filmmaking, and foster a community where fellow cinephiles can join me in unraveling the magic that makes Indian cinema extraordinary.
