Why it's in the canon
The best-written Hindi family drama of the 2010s, and it treats its gay lead as a person, not a plot.
Two brothers return to Coonoor for a grandfather's birthday and every buried thing in the house surfaces at once.
Kapoor & Sons sits in the 2010s alongside Gangs of Wasseypur and Masaan — a decade this canon treats as formative.
