The day I did my first film, I become open to criticism. I am happy about it. But I can digest only genuine criticism. I don’t like to be taken for granted sir. Hope you connected the dots already. 😜😜😜

But sometimes, I am forced to sir. If you decode the images you will know why.

I loved every frame I lit and every frame I framed. I will proudly say that’s my best work as of now.

More than a Thug, it’s the love for my professiona. I love every frame I create. People can criticise, only if it’s bad.

Do you see any big difference in the base image and the final image in terms of digital filters? That softness and glow were achieved in lighting and not with digital effects.

But some feel making an artist look good on screen is a crime. Don’t know y a DOP is hired for…. Funny people. 😜

Not necessarily we ignore negative people always. Sometimes it good to make them understand a few things.

— Richard M Nathan (@Richardmnathan) January 15, 2022

Agree… then one should say the film was bad. He can’t target my work which I believe I’ve done my best. This message is not for all reviews. It’s for a particular person. Find out the reson behind the images. You will get your answers.
