V.Guru Ramesh

V.Guru Ramesh, the guy behind “Brother” (2024), really dives deep into the messiness of family and the chaos that comes with it. The movie kicks off with two siblings—yeah, they’re polar opposites, obviously—thrown together after years of barely talking. One’s a straight-laced overachiever who probably color-codes his socks, the other’s a lovable slacker with more bad ideas than actual plans. Their dad’s sudden illness drags them both back to the family home, and let’s be honest, you know that’s never just a peaceful reunion. Old grudges pop up, ancient secrets crawl out from the woodwork, and suddenly everyone’s yelling about stuff that happened in the ’90s. But this isn’t just another “family drama” where people pout and hug it out. Ramesh throws in some genuinely sharp humor—like, laugh-out-loud moments that catch you off guard—and a cast of side characters who steal every scene they’re in. There’s a nosy neighbor who somehow knows everyone’s business before they do, a mom who’s way too into WhatsApp forwards, and an uncle who keeps mispronouncing everyone’s names just to mess with them. The story weaves through heartbreak, sibling rivalry, and those rare flickers of love that families show when they’re not busy driving each other nuts. By the end, you’re left thinking about your own family—maybe even tempted to call your sibling. Or, you know, just text them a meme and call it a day.
