While discussing the Jimmy Savile documentary:
Rajyasree: What are you laughing at?
Abhinandan: No, I’m just saying, if he [Jimmy] was knighted and if you have to be unknighted, then you’re day-ed? What is the term?
Rajyasree: What are you saying?
Abhinandan: See, I knight you and then I take your knight[hood] away, then you’re day-ed.
Rajyasree: I feel very sad for myself at these moments. I’ve had a very tough week and I don't even deserve this.
Abhinandan and Rajysaree burst out laughing.
This, and a whole lot of other stuff awful and awesome as Abhinandan Sekhri and Rajyasree Sen review the web series The Kardashians and Anatomy of a Scandal; docu-series Jimmy Savile: A British Horror Story; Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor's wedding; and the Johnny Depp and Amber Heard trial.
