My Take
Geetu Mohandas earns my respect for refusing to stay where she was comfortable. A child actress turned acclaimed Malayalam performer, she could have coasted on screen presence, but instead moved behind the camera to tell her own stories. Liar's Dice, her 2013 socio-political film, screened at Sundance and became India's official entry for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film, no small leap for a first-time feature director. A Filmfare South winner with the eye for hard, socially serious work, she represents the kind of artist I value most: one who chooses authorship over applause and risk over repetition.
