Is “unauthorised” basically leave to speculate? Seems that way from Yasser Usman’s Rekha – The Untold Story, which is a gossipy, breezy read. Amitabh Bachchan’s letter to his granddaughters on Teacher’s Day raises a number of questions. Is it just a PR stunt to promote his upcoming movie, Pink? Speaking of Pink, we’ve found the best part of the film: Qurat-ul-Ain Baloch’s beautiful rendition of the song “Kaari Kaari“. There’s more good music in this episode, and there’s MSG – Sherdil. Listen up as Deepanjana Pal & Rajyasree Sen help you up your pop culture game. And as always, there’s a question at the end of the podcast.
