Awful and Awesome Ep 267: Nope, The Staircase, Indian Matchmaking S2
The pop culture podcast that isn’t afraid to pop the bubble.
While talking about Indian Matchmaking, Rajyasree lists her criteria for the perfect partner:
Rajyasree: You can set me up...I’m very open to suggestions.
Nainika: I’ll be on the lookout for people who’d be nice to...
Rajyasree: Subscribers can write in also if they want.
Nainika: Please send in your biodatas. I would love to evaluate them and then set up a meeting between you and Rajyasree.
Rajyasree: You can send your bank statements also because we don’t want surprises later.
Nainika bursts out laughing.
This and a whole lot of stuff awful and awesome as Rajyasree Sen and Nainika Rathore review Jordan Peele’s Nope; web series Indian Matchmaking Season 2 and The Staircase; Hrithik Roshan's Zomato ad row; and the trailer of Season 2 of Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives.
