While discussing the headlines:
Rajaysree: In bad news, Kamal Haasan’s comments led to his film Thug Life not releasing in Karnataka.
Manisha: In worse news, Akshay Kumar’s Housefull 5 cruised ahead of the box office…I had no idea that five Housefulls have been made.
Rajyasree: And also Fardeen Khan has made a comeback!
Shardool: Oh god. His debut movie is the worst movie I have ever seen.
Rajyasree: Prem Aggan!
Shardool: Yeah, I walked out of the theatre!
This and a whole lot of awful and awesome as Rajyasree Sen, Manisha Pande, and Shardool Katyayan discuss the movies Mountainhead and Stolen, and the second season of the TV series Last of Us.
