When Kashmiris are invoked, they are placeholders for Indian fears – the violent Kashmiri male terrorist who must be erased – or for Indian saviourism – the meek Kashmiri women who must be saved. It is through this prism that Danish Renzu’s new film Songs of Paradise attempts to depoliticise and deflate Kashmiri stories through banal art. Now showing on Amazon Prime, Songs of Paradise tells the story of a young Kashmiri woman named Zeba (Saba Azad) who…

Blue frustration has only been inflated due to the underwhelming displays of the players brought into the club, tasked with filling the spot vacated by Madueke in the squad.Chelsea signed Jamie Gittens, Estevao and Alejandro Garnacho for…
