Description

He’s the mastermind behind Zombivli and one of India’s leading voices in the horror-comedy space — Aditya Sarpotdar joins Cyrus for a chaotic, hilarious, and surprisingly emotional AMA episode.

From creating zombies during the pandemic, to audition tapes with tomato ketchup, to his great-grandfather making films in 1925, Aditya walks us through four generations of filmmaking, Marathi cinema nostalgia, and why Mumbai desperately needs a zombie sequel.

They dive into:

How Zombivli was born during lockdown

What zombie auditions REALLY looked like

Anthakshari with zombies (yes, seriously)

His family’s 100-year legacy in Indian cinema

The lost art of film stock & silver plates

Why India needs smarter, scarier horror films

Ram Gopal Varma’s influence

Whether zombies can survive Mumbai local trains

It’s funny, nerdy, nostalgic, and full of great cinema stories — the perfect Cyrus Says cocktail.
