Awful and Awesome Ep 370: Jigra, Khel Khel Mein, Jamoora

While discussing Jigra:

Abbas: This is a big-ticket release this week, and a controversial release also.

Rajyasree: Is it plausible that Alia Bhatt is doing jailbreak and action stuff? Or, is it like you have to do that suspension of disbelief?

Abbas: No, no. You have to do a lot of suspension of disbelief.

Rajyasree: So, would you recommend I watch it? 

Abbas: (laughs) See Rajyasree, if you sat through Khel Khel Mein, you can definitely sit through it. 

This and a whole lot of awful and awesome as Rajyasree Sen and Abbas Momin discuss the films Jigra, Khel Khel Mein, and Mothers’ Instinct, the series The Tribe, and the documentary Jamoora.
