Boil and Steam

42 episodes

This series is a personal memoir of my life spent in various capacities. As a print reporter, a radio producer, a government employee, an entrepreneur, traveller, photographer and above all friend of friends and as a family man. Started as an alternative to spending time in Church on Sundays, this turns out to be a regular feature now as I dig out my personal diaries right from my childhood. Every incident is sautéed with some metaphor and sarcasm and satire. None of the incidents in this memoir are made up. Everything is real life incident. This series is in Malayalam.
