Episode 44: Sonchiriya (2019) - with Sudip Sharma
07/25/22 • 62 min
Hi everyone, thanks for listening. Drop a line or two about the episode!
Writer Sudip Sharma (NH10, Udta Punjab, Paatal Lok, Laal Kaptaan) joins us for a Sonchiriya deep dive.
Sonchiriya is one of my favorite films of last 10 years. It's also my favorite Sushant Singh Rajput film. I believe his performance, much like the film, remains underrated and under-discovered. This episode is, in part, an attempt to help people discover and appreciate Sonchiriya.
Sudip and I talked about key scenes and moments, conducting script research in Bundelkhand, casting Sushant and Bhumi, working with Sushant, the set pieces, and film influences on Sonchiriya. Sudip also shared how Sonchiriya is his tribute to Shekhar Kapur's Bandit Queen (1994), one of his all-time favorite Hindi films. Join us!
Sonchiriya is currently streaming on Zee5.

Episode 43: Gupt (1997) - with Abhishek Mukherjee
Hi everyone, thanks for listening. Drop a line or two about the episode!
Gupt: The Hidden Truth evokes a wide range of memories for many. The timeless soundtrack by Viju Shah, the smashing reveal, wild dialogue, Rajiv Rai's direction, Ashok Mehta's cinematography, the amusing ensemble of supporting cast and of course, Manisha Koirala, Kajol and Bobby Deol.
As the film turns 25, cricket historian, statistician and author Abhishek Mukherjee joins us, in the capacity of a Bobby Deol fan and Gupt superfan, to look back on Rajiv Rai's bonkers 1997 murder mystery that has become an integral part of 90s pop culture. Join us!
Small correction: Love Hostel (2022) streams on Zee5, not on Netflix, as mentioned on the pod.

He shared some cool stories around casting Naseeruddin Shah in Ishqiya, shooting the shootout at the train station in Dedh Ishqiya, the decision to nod to Ismat Chughtai's Lihaaf, and working with the Pakistani actor, Salman Shahid (Mushtaq Bhai).
