The pop culture podcast that isn’t afraid to pop the bubble.
The media must be free and fair, uninfluenced by corporate or state interests. That's why you, the public, need to pay to keep news free.
ContributeTalking about Ginny Weds Sunny:
Abhinandan: She's really good. Yami Gautam, I think.
Rajyasree: Please ya, Abhinandan! She was not good at all in this.
Abhinandan: You said your bit, na?
Rajyasree: Arrey, but you can't be delusional. I don't want you to be, na?
Abhinandan: You are completely allowed to be delusional. See, we do this podcast together for, I don't know how many, 300 episodes, thinking people are listening at the other end, and these emails that we keep writing, pretending to be other people!
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 film Ginny Weds Sunny; the Netflix series Bad Boy Billionaires; the Tanishq ad controversy; Vijay Devarakonda’s comments on democracy.
