The Awful and Awesome Entertainment Wrap – Episode 7

In this week’s episode, Deepanjana Pal and Rajyasree Sen discuss Chetan Bhagat’s #BeatPeBooty dance, his new novel, One Indian Girl & we even read out some parts from the book. Rohit Shetty directed Return of Ranveer Ching ad & Anouk’s Bold is Beautiful ad both leave us with one question – what on earth was going on? Spending so much money on celebrities and production value and still not making any sense? We tell you how ad campaigns by beauty products are getting the basic idea of feminism wrong, and look! Indian Indie singer Nischay Parikh is on Billboard. Oh also, there’s a quiz question at the end to help you keep up your pop culture game.
