Critically acclaimed actor Kay Kay Menon has done feature films, short films, TV shows and web series too. He feels comparison between different mediums is not possible as all of them have some or the other plus point.
“Every medium has its own pluses. I can’t compare. This (short film) medium allows, especially new directors and writers to show their skills,” Kay Kay told IANS.
“At the end of it, it is about storytelling. Platforms might be different, but ultimately it is storytelling.”

Kay Kay just featured in Royal Stag Barrel Select Large Short Films’ short –The Last Chapter, helmed by Raj Singh Chaudhary. The movie delves deep into the painful and complicated relationship between a father and his newly discovered biological daughter.
“I loved the way the short film was written. Also, Raj is a friend of mine,” he said about his former Black Friday co-star.
Having a former co-star direct him was easy.”He is a friend,” Kay Kay said.
Jio Cinema's latest six-episode series, Shekhar Home, falls flat trying to create yet another Holmes, yet another Watson, Inspector Lestrade, or Mrs Hudson. However, their names have been changed to suit the desi flavour. Sherlock becomes Shekhar (played by Kay Kay Menon), and Watson is Jayavrat (Ranvir Shorey).
The gripping drama follows a retired crime lord drawn back into the underworld to protect his family, with intense performances from Menon, Zakir Hussain, and Tanuj Virwani.
Actor Kay Kay Menon, who is all geared up for the release of his upcoming series 'Shekhar Home', has opened up on how the locations inspire artists, sharing about shooting for the show in Shantiniketan, West Bengal.
