While talking about the film Bell Bottom:
Rajyasree: How do we know that he’s Bell Bottom? Because he’s wearing bell bottoms and he’s riding a bike outside Red Fort so then we know this is him, not the guy who’s wearing the pencil trousers. That’s Pencil.
Abhinandan: And there’s this other guy Baggy?
Rajyasree: And then his brother is Baggy.
Abhinandan: And there’s a Half Pant? Is there a Chaddi also?
Rajyasree: Chaddi is the one who sells tickets outside that movie theatre y'all used to have in Delhi.
Rajyasree and Abhinandan burst out laughing.
This and a whole lot of other stuff awful and awesome as Abhinandan Sekhri and Rajyasree Sen review the films Bell Bottom and Thalaivii; web series Only Murders in the Building and The Morning Show Season 2; Tinder’s short film Closure; the Manyavar controversy; and the new Coca-Cola ad.
PS: Abhinandan and Rajyasree give themselves code names.
