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.
ContributeWhile talking about the short film Dobara Alvida:
Rajyasree: This film was not good, to put it mildly, but I watched the full thing. It’s about...
Abhinandan: It’s 25 minutes. “I watched the full thing”, as if you’ve run a marathon. Even I watched it!
Rajyasree: It seemed like two and a half hours, na.
Abhinandan: The biggest show slacker of the world has watched it so it’s not some sort of an achievement.
Rajyasree and Abhinandan burst out laughing.
This and a whole lot of other stuff awful and awesome as Abhinandan Sekhri and Rajyasree Sen discuss web series Sunflower and the second season of The Family Man; Royal Stag’s short film Dobara Alvida; and a Danish road safety ad.
