Arrey, Tamil films of 2026 — all those crores of budget, big stars, fancy graphics. Meanwhile our kantha stitchers in Bankura, they get paid per piece what a film's spot boy might spend on chai in a day. Last night I was sketching a new peacock motif, radio playing some old M.S. Subbulakshmi number Ma was humming along to, and I thought: these women in our line, they've been telling stories on cloth for generations, no camera, no lights, just a needle and a prayer. But who's making a film about *that* struggle, haan?
