You don’t have to justify my joke, it was implicit in the joke.Rajyasree: No, no, you have to explain. Hindi cinema has taught me.Abhinandan: Making a joke in front of you is really like “Bhains ke aage been bajana”.Rajyasree: Now you’re calling me a bhains? I’ve told you don’t fat-shame all the time.Abhinandan: It’s a muhawra in Hindi.Rajyasree: Either you’re calling me black or you’re calling me fat, it’s so shameful to do this to a person.Abhinandan: Can we move on?Rajyasree: Obviously, because I’ll start crying otherwise.Rajyasree and Abhinandan burst out laughing.This and a whole lot of other stuff awful and awesome as Abhinandan Sekhri and Rajyasree Sen discuss the films Rebecca and Borat Subsequent Moviefilm; the web series The Queen's Gambit and Mirzapur Season 2; and Eros Now’s controversial Navratri ad campaign.Tune in!Timecodes00:08: Introduction01:51: Borat 215:00: Letters from listeners17:27: Rebecca29:15: Eros Now controversy32:36: Mirzapur Season 244:28: Letters from listeners47:33: The Queen's Gambit Hosted on Acast.
