Description

Actor, director, writer — Anand Tiwari joins Cyrus for a wide-ranging conversation that starts at Shivaji Park, passes through Marathi theatre, college festivals, advertising sets, and lands at Bandish Bandits, Go Goa Gone, and beyond.

They talk about:

  • Growing up multilingual in Mumbai

  • Theatre vs cinema (and why both are brutal)

  • Almost becoming a professional cricketer

  • Working with Naseeruddin Shah — first as an actor, then as a director

  • Rage Theatre, President Is Coming & Mumbai’s theatre boom

  • Go Goa Gone, zombie comedies & fat suits

  • Hollywood sets, Naomi Watts & Sean Penn

  • Why passion matters more than glamour in the arts

  • And whether Rohit Sharma & Virat Kohli should play the 2027 World Cup

Honest, funny, meandering — and packed with stories you don’t usually hear.
