Here I speak about how the evolved versions of the three-act structure of screenwriting namely five-act and six-act structures,are written to engage the audience better. I've illustrated the six-act with real-time examples in the Tamil film industry like Vijay's Master directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj and Vishnu Vishal's Indru Netru Naalai directed by Ravikumar. Likewise, I've also talked about the five-act with Queen web series written by Reshma and directed by Gautham Vasudev and Prasath Murugesan
