Awful and Awesome Ep 255: Fresh, Top Gun Maverick, Depp-Heard trial

While reviewing the film Top Gun Maverick:

*Abhinandan goes through his notes.*

Abhinandan: Makes you realise yet again what an amazing time the 80s was. When cool was genuinely cool.

Rajyasree: This also you wrote while watching the film?

Abhinandan: Yeah. I take notes, I don't just try to wing it. I come prepared.

Rajyasree: You’re not a wingman!

Abhinandan and Rajyasree burst out laughing.

This and a whole lot of stuff awful and awesome as Abhinandan Sekhri and Rajyasree Sen review the films Top Gun: Maverick and Fresh; the movie trailer of Dhaakad; the Johnny Depp and Amber Heard defamation trial; and the killing of Punjabi pop star Sidhu Moose Wala.

Bonus: Abhinandan reviews The Great Indian Kitchen to cover for episode 205.
