Abhinandan: Rajyasree, not today, but I will review this show soon...I think I watched it a little late...Made In Heaven.

(producer cracks up)

Abhinandan: (stares) Our producer just laughed...What’s so funny? 

Rajyasree: Why did you watch Made In Heaven? 

Abhinandan: It was recommended. 

Rajyasree: Yes, four years back!

This and a whole lot of awful and awesome as Abhinandan Sekhri and Rajyasree Sen discuss the movies Woman of The Hour, Girls Will Be Girls, and Heretic, Shyam Benegal’s cinema, and the new Kim Kardashian music video for Santa Baby.

PS: Abhinandan also recommends a new Punjabi song, so do tune in to the full episode.
