    Pee Science, Crocs & Valentine Chaos | Shanaya Kapoor & Adarsh Gaurav with Cyrus

    Shanaya Kapoor and Adarsh Gaurav drop by Cyrus Says to talk about their upcoming Valentine’s release… and immediately lose control of the conversation. What starts as a chat about romance, survival thrillers, and representing two very different sides of Mumbai quickly spirals into discussions about pee etiquette, tennis balls, crocodile animatronics, South Bombay clubs, Nala Supara history, and why PR teams should never trust Cyrus Broacha. Adarsh opens up about growing up all over India, having too many names, and researching Mumbai by hanging out with rappers. Shanaya talks about freezing shoot conditions, fear of heights, swimming with crocs (almost), and staying calm while the conversation goes completely off the rails. Funny, chaotic, awkward, and unexpectedly insightful this episode is classic Cyrus Says: zero filters, mild trauma, and lots of laughter. 👉 Watch till the end. The PR team is already stressed.

    How I Landed Neeraj Pandey’s Taskaree | Amruta Khanvilkar

    Welcome to Cyrus Says! In this episode of Cock & Bull, Cyrus Broacha sits down with Amruta Khanvilkar for a conversation that happily refuses to stay on topic. They jump from MTV nostalgia and middle-class beginnings to auditions, Marathi cinema, action roles, and how careers are really built, messy, slow, and slightly chaotic. It’s candid, funny, and completely off-script, with detours into pop culture, changing times, and stories that don’t come with neat endings. If you’re looking for polish, this isn’t it.If you enjoy honest chaos and real talk, welcome home. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Mumbai Reality Check: There's NO Spirit, Only Depression | Ft. Balram Vishwakarma

    In this episode of Cyrus Says Cock & Bull, Cyrus Broacha hangs out with non-fiction storyteller Balram Vishwakarma and promptly loses control of the conversation. They jump from Bollywood name lore and growing up in a Mumbai slum to ADHD careers, therapy schedules, Zomato-level logistics, traffic rage, and why Mumbai infrastructure feels personally hostile. It’s chaotic, honest, slightly unhinged, and makes absolutely no effort to stay on track which is exactly the point. If you’re looking for balance, nuance, or polite conversation, this is not it. If you enjoy chaos, questionable takes, and laughing at things you probably shouldn’t, welcome home.  And to our regular listeners, welcome back home!  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Patrick Graham on Netflix India, Censorship & Making Horror Films

    British filmmaker and writer Patrick Graham joins Cyrus Says for an unfiltered conversation about building a career in Indian film and OTT. Patrick talks about moving to India with no connections, studying at London Film School, directing ads, and eventually creating some of India’s most talked-about horror series — including Ghoul and Betal for Netflix. He breaks down how OTT platforms changed after early controversies, the impact of censorship, why bold storytelling became risky, and how creative freedom slowly narrowed. The episode also dives into Patrick’s work on true-crime documentaries like Dancing on the Grave and The Dupatta Murders, the ethics of telling real crime stories, criticism vs audience response, and what it’s really like to be a foreign filmmaker working in India. Funny, sharp, and brutally honest, this episode is a behind-the-scenes look at OTT platforms, filmmaking realities, and creative survival in today’s media landscape.

    An Author & A Fighter Pilot walk into the Cyrus Says studio! ft Shormistha Mukherjee & Bonny Mukerjee

    In this special episode of Cyrus Says, writer and editor Sharmishtha Mukherjee is joined by her father, Air Commodore (Retd.) Bonney Mukherjee, for a conversation that moves effortlessly between nostalgia, history, humour, and survival. The episode begins with Sharmishtha’s book Pudding: The Memory Keepers of Bandra — a loving portrait of a neighbourhood, its people, streets, food, aunties, trees, clubs, churches, and disappearing culture. Together with Cyrus, she reflects on what it means to grow roots, belong to a place, and preserve everyday stories before they vanish. In the second half, her father shares extraordinary first-hand accounts of life as an Indian Air Force fighter pilot, including being shot during the 1971 war, flying combat missions, surviving injuries, and the quiet resilience required to return home and carry on. The conversation also touches on Sharmishtha’s experience as a cancer survivor, family strength, humour as a coping mechanism, and the strange, beautiful ways people endure. Gentle, funny, emotional, and deeply Indian — this is an episode about memory, courage, and the lives behind history. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
