Abhinandan: So Rajyasree Sen, he has corrected your pronunciation. So obviously you hate Jay. Jay, you are now on the…
Rajyasree: Hitlist!
Abhinandan: Rajyasree’s ‘I hate’ list. You are there because you corrected her pronunciation. Because no one dare correct her pronunciation. So just telling you, in case you’re ever alone, wandering the streets where you live, and suddenly someone arrives from the sky sitting on a broom…
Rajyasree: And throws a dictionary on your head…
Abhinandan: yeah, and you pass out, you know who it is!
Abhinandan and Rajyasree burst out laughing.
This and a lot more as Abhinandan Sekhri and Rajyasree Sen talk about Hotel Mumbai, One Mic Stand, Bikram: Yogi, Guru, Predator, Utsav Chakraborty, Out of Love, Amazon Prime’s censorship of Madam Secretary, Gillette’s new ad campaign and Durex, among other stuff awful and awesome.
