While talking about Wakaalat From Home:

Abhinandan: You are basically indulging in shameless nepotism that you’re plugging your friend’s show on this very credible pop culture podcast...So you are using it for nepotism. Kangana was right! I’m sure you’re also doing drugs in your spare time.

Rajyasree: I’m doing drugs? Dedo na, drugs dedo. I’m telling everyone, no one’s giving only. Imagine me on drugs. God!

Abhinandan: Can you imagine? Already you are so loopy, you shout, you don’t talk normally. We should do it as just an experiment to see...

Rajyasree: Just an experiment?

Abhinandan: You’d be something else. You’d be like I don't know what.

Rajyasree: Maybe I'll calm down? It’s sometimes the opposite effect.

Abhinandan: No, no.

Rajyasree: Or I just burst! There’d be a high and then I’ll collapse and that’s the end. You would’ve killed me off once and for all.

Abhinandan: All the more reason we must try it.

Rajyasree and Abhinandan burst out laughing.

This and a whole lot of other stuff awful and awesome as Abhinandan Sekhri and Rajyasree Sen discuss the documentary film The Social Dilemma; 2019 film Cargo; Into The Wild With Bear Grylls featuring Akshay Kumar; web series Wakaalat From Home; and a lot more.
