REVIEWS
- “Ashes is a serious and soulful debut from a serious up and coming director. With Ashes, Naidu has shown that he is a singular force to be reckoned with.” (read more)
- — Aseem Chhabra
- “Ashes is a promising directorial debut, rough around the edges in an old school New York kind of way. Those who dig indie crime drama should find its spirit to their liking.”
- — J.B. Spins
- “Ashes displays courage on Naidu's part... With his first movie complete, Naidu is on his way to becoming a force in the world of South-Asian American film.”
- — MTV Desi
Music: Lushmeena by Osmani Soundz
