This episode of The Awful and Awesome brings you an action-packed week with our hosts—Abhinandan Sekhri and Rajyasree Sen—both of whom discuss everything from a political documentary to a very strange award category.

The duo begins by talking about the "Bad Sex award" which is awarded by Literary Review to "an author who has produced an outstandingly bad sexual description in an otherwise good novel". Rajyasree says Japanese author Haruki Murakami also made it to this year’s list, while Abhinandan adds that an Indian author called Anirudh Behl was also part of the same list in 2003.

"We should warn you, if any of you go watch the film, then you should be ashamed of yourself,” adds Abhinandan.

The hosts then talk about a short film starring Naseeruddin Shah called Rogan Josh, which also features Avantika Akerkar and Shishir Sharma.

Both of them agree that the problem of the film is a universal problem in Hindi films, i.e. they over-explain.

The discussion then moves towards a political documentary, Fahrenheit 11/9, directed by Michael Moore.

This overload of information is what is the problem with the film, according to her. “The film, which is about everything, becomes a film about nothing,” she points out.

The anchors conclude by talking about Priyanka Chopra’s wedding. Rajyasree says it's ironic that "three truckloads of
