Synopsis
Forrest Gump
A man with a low IQ has accomplished great things in his life and been present during significant historic events—in each case, far exceeding what anyone imagined he could do. But despite all he has achieved, his one true love eludes him.
Thalavara
Mocked for his vitiligo, Jyothish has spent years hiding from the world-until love and a daring dream to act pull him into the light. But when rejection and cruelty test him, he discovers that real victory isn't fame or approval, but the courage to stand up, unbroken, and redefine what makes him extraordinary.
