The Awful and Awesome Entertainment Wrap – Episode 61

In this episode, Meghnad and Rajyasree discuss Sridevi’s legacy and the coverage of her death. They move on to discuss Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri, the extremely tedious Filmfare Awards and why it was the worst award show in the last few years. They also talk about the video of singer Papon kissing a child contestant and Papon’s response. There’s the video criticising AIB’s casting of mainly male characters… and to save the best for the last, there’s Amruta Fadnavis’ song featuring her husband Devendra Fadnavis, the Maharashtra chief minister, and sundry civil servants. A mixed bag of goodies if ever there was one. Listen up.
