S1 Ep25: Jai Gangaajal, Fan Trailer, Kapoor & Sons Music And More Mar 13, 2016

Show notes

Jai Gangaajal review - How Prakash Jha's acting performance exceeded all expectations, but his directorship wasn't quite up to his usual standards.
Fan trailer reactions: psychological thriller a refreshing change for SRK, and a role he's likely to do justice to.
Kapoor and Sons music, and the recent trend of re-making Punjabi rap songs.

S1 Ep24: Neerja Feb 29, 2016

Show notes

Note: to avoid spoilers, skip to 31:00.

Sonam Kapoor's flawless performance is the highlight of an all-round brilliant film. We discuss everything great about Neerja, as well as Indian audiences' increasing appetite for new, realistic content based on real everyday heroes.

S1 Ep23: Fitoor Feb 14, 2016

Show notes

Why Fitoor had a lot going for it, but missed a few crucial elements needed to push it to the next level. Watchable, but not unmissable.

S1 Ep22: Kya Not Kool Hai Hum Mastizaade: The Rise of Sex Comedies Feb 09, 2016

Show notes

WARNING: Some themes and language featured on this episode may be unsuitable for audiences aged under 18, and/or with a low tolerance of puns.

Why Kya Kool Hain Hum 3 and Mastizaade are tasteless, misogynistic and just terrible films - wasting the opportunity to initiate open dialogue, discourse and progressive attitude towards sex. Also, puns. So many puns. And Himesh is back!
