    If Today Was Our Last Day | #96

    In this episode, we break down the controversy around Dhruv Rathee and his film Dhurandhar. From political narratives, government criticism, and comparisons with real terror attacks, to cinema, propaganda, and freedom of expression, we discuss whatโ€™s being said, whatโ€™s being shown, and whatโ€™s being questioned. The conversation moves beyond just one film or one creator. We talk about ideology, left vs right narratives in cinema, fear among actors, media influence, and how opinions slowly become facts in the public mind. As the episode unfolds, it also turns inward. We talk about life, death, last wishes, regrets, food, football, documentaries, and what it really means to live honestly in polarized times. This episode is long, layered, and uncomfortable by design. โฑ๏ธ TIMESTAMPS 00:00 โ€“ Dhurandhar: background & context 03:00 โ€“ What Dhruv Rathee said in his video: review & breakdown 04:00 โ€“ Statements on the Indian government 05:52 โ€“ Hitler comparison & controversial remarks about Narendra Modi 07:32 โ€“ Pulwama vs 26/11 comparison 08:40 โ€“ Why this movie was made 09:40 โ€“ โ€œBhade ke tattoo actorsโ€ & calling viewers sadist 12:45 โ€“ Nitish Rajput vs Dhruv Rathee: belief systems 14:22 โ€“ Is Dhurandhar propaganda? 16:22 โ€“ Who is actually in danger: Hindus or Muslims? 21:55 โ€“ Red card scene critique 25:29 โ€“ Hidden messages in the film 27:15 โ€“ Left-wing vs right-wing cinema 30:47 โ€“ Sucharita Tyagiโ€™s review & Parliament attack scene 32:55 โ€“ Fourth wall break by Aditya Dhar 35:24 โ€“ Why actors & celebrities avoid politics 37:18 โ€“ Munna Bhaiya (Mirzapur reference) 38:58 โ€“ Are Dhruv Ratheeโ€™s videos misleading? 42:20 โ€“ Newspaper cuttings, narratives & Fake AI 43:02 โ€“ Aravalli Hills & Supreme Court verdict 45:06 โ€“ Lionel Messiโ€™s town in India & Sunil Chhetri 47:42 โ€“ If today was your last day: last meal 51:15 โ€“ What would we do if we were about to die? 53:20 โ€“ Last wishes & lifelong regrets 58:17 โ€“ How we want to live our final moments 01:00:05 โ€“ Madhumita Dixitโ€™s new series review 01:03:00 โ€“ Kartik Aaryan & acting discussion 01:06:20 โ€“ Dhanda Nyaywala controversy 01:13:50 โ€“ Documentary idea on real India & A.

    Dark Jokes, Santoor Mom, iCandy, Bollywood & Drunken Fun #87

    In this hilarious and unfiltered episode with Yogi and Rajeev. From cracking limitless dark jokes and discussing the boundaries of humor, to analyzing the negativity in society and exploring the seductive, taboo content of the "Santoor mom" family, we leave no stone unturned. We also take a deep dive into Bollywood, talking about nepotism, the troubled production of "Bombay Velvet" and Anurag Kashyap's struggles, contrasting with Sandeep Reddy Vanga's steadfast vision for "Animal". Yogi shares his emotional response to "City Lights" and we reflect on capitalism's impact on ethics and morals. Plus, we debate the most overrated actor and the appeal of cringe content. This episode is packed with laughter, insightful discussions, and a bit of drunken chaos as Yogi hilariously passes out before the end. Don't miss out on this wild ride! #DarkHumor #Bollywood #Nepotism #SantoorMom #BombayVelvet #AnimalMovie #CityLights #Capitalism #OverratedActors #CringeContent #YouTubeIndia #DrunkenFun #AnuragKashyap #SandeepReddyVanga #Podcast #YogiAndRajeev
