About Tasweermahal

We Identified As Cinema Lovers

Tasweermhal was started on Facebook as a hobby where I used to post occasionally. After lockdown, when I was still working from home, it gets  a bit more frequent. With the constant encouragement from my family, friends and the people engaging with my content, I decided to take it further. 

Tasweermahal.com was started as a dedicated platform for meaningful engagement with cinema, performing arts, and cultural analysis. We want to engage with journalists, filmmakers, actors, academics, and cultural commentators who share our commitment to informed discussion about entertainment's social and cultural dimensions. Whether you represent an established media organization, emerging creative venture, or independent research initiative, we explore partnership possibilities that align with our editorial values and audience interests.

The Story Behind The Name

The name “Tasweermahal or Tasveermahal” is a tribute to my alma mater, AMU. As an Alig, I'm in debt to that tiny theater, which had the glory of its own. For us, Aligs Tasweer Mahal is a synonym for movies, and of course, for good meals, a zabardast chai, a karri lassi... The list is endless. Tasweer Mahal was the ultimate movie experience.

Unfortunately, the theater was demolished a few years ago to make a market complex.

Meet Me

My name is Tabish Bhatti. What can I tell you about myself? I am just an ordinary person who loves to explore extraordinary things. Be it cinema, literature, art, culture, society or people. I want to know about things. Tasweermahal too is not something where I provide knowledge; it started because of my own curiosity and hunger to know more.

I hope to meet people like me who are pursuing the same path of self-discovery through knowledge.
