Tune in to know why as Prateek and Prerna just begin to scratch the surface in this very special episode. Lees meer

12 november 2021 · 17 min
Our cousin pays us a visit from Scotland and the first thing we could think of was to hear her views on Bollywood.

Olympics special: Our favorite sports films
8 augustus 2021 · 41 min
After Javelin thrower Neeraj Chopra's historic gold at Tokyo Olympics 2020, we thought it would be great to reminisce our favourite sports flicks—beyond Lagaan and Dangal, of course. And don't miss those dozen times when Prateek forgets the name of the person he's talking about because he's too pompous to do his research before recording (while shamelessly making fun of Prerna's copious notes!

Battling it out: Malik and Toofan
21 juli 2021 · 36 min
Religion is a theme that strangely connects the two films we're talking about today. Malik is a film where a local gangster oscillates between lawlessness and religious fulfilment. It's a story of survival told by way of humanising a Godfather-like figure. Toofan sports film that everybody wanted but nobody needed. Lees meer

Frolicking: Bo Burnham's Inside and The Family Man
8 juni 2021 · 39 min
This week, Prerna talks about American comedian Bo Burnham's new Netflix special Inside. Rarely does she looks at a freaking comedy special as a piece of art. But this one stands out for it's one of the few self-aware specials that touches upon important themes like privilege, mental health, internet culture as Burnham drops musical truth bombs. If not anything you'll certainly learn a thing or two. Say, derealization, for example. His new special has got people googling the term already. We have another special feature on The Family Man, an Indian action thriller starring Manoj Tiwari as... (Prateek YOU IDIOT! It's Manoj Bajpayee). Sorry for the goof-up. Lees meer

Aspiring for: Jathi Ratnalu and Karnan
28 mei 2021 · 38 min
This week we dare to delve into two diametrically opposite worlds—one paints a comical picture of three friends in Hyderabad and the other chronicles the dark side of caste politics in a remote village in Tamil Nadu. The one thing that connects the two plots is a never-ending aspiration to break out from their current circumstances. Both Jathi Ratnalu and Karnan, however, take different routes to achieve the same means. Lees meer

Turning in: Nomadland and The Disciple
4 mei 2021 · 31 min
'Home' is just a word or is it something you carry within you? Lees meer
Both these films set you free, in a way. They leave you with lots to think about concepts of liberation, perfection, gratitude and solitude. In the middle of a pandemic, these learnings seem dearer than ever!

Dreaming on: Ajeeb Daastaans and 99 Songs
27 april 2021 · 51 min
While Ajeeb Daastaans touches upon realistic themes like caste, gender and sexuality, 99 Songs delves deep into a fantasy-like world made up of tasteful song and dance sequences. But maybe somewhere down the line, these two worlds coincide. Who knows? Lees meer
