The Awful & Awesome Entertainment Wrap
Ep 126: Sacred Games, Mindhunter and more
•
In this episode of The Awful and Awesome Entertainment Wrap, hosts Abhinandan Sekhri and Rajyasree Sen talk about the second season of Sacred Games, the trailer of Laal Kaptaan, season two of Mindhunter, OkCupid's new ad campaign, Once Upon a Time In Hollywood and Euphoria's new song.
The podcast kicks off with the latest season of Sacred Games, featuring a stellar star cast. According to Abhinandan, the directors left the end hanging. He says the first episode was the weakest but adds: "I didn’t think it was as good as Season 1 but at the same time, it was better than anything India has ever produced!" Rajyasree says, "I felt that it was too stretched, as in it was not plausible." Abhinandan wonders how Sartaj, the character played by Saif Ali Khan, ties his pagdi since he loses his left thumb in the first season. He also discusses the level of writing the series' writers will have to pursue for the third season in order to lure him back, since all the characters have been fully developed and there's not much to add to the plot.
They go on to talk about Once Upon a Time In Hollywood starring Brad Pitt and Leonardo di Caprio. Abhinandan says, "I think every movie of Quentin Tarantino is a celebration of cinema." Rajyasree says the movie is a "riot". "It's really a fun ride, almost." Moving on to discuss dating apps, Abhinandan assures Rajyasree that he'll contemplate signing up on OkCupid, Tinder and similar platforms and then share his experience in the next podcast.
Finally, Abhinandan expresses his thoughts on Vande Mataram, Euphoria's new song, saying this is just an attempt to cash in on the wave of patriotism. The duo also talks about disaster-themed films like The Meg.
This and a lot more, so tune in!
