While talking about the film Bell Bottom

Rajyasree: How do we know that he’s Bell Bottom? Because he’s wearing bell bottoms and he’s riding a bike outside Red Fort so then we know this is him, not the guy who’s wearing the pencil trousers. That’s Pencil. 

Abhinandan: And there’s this other guy Baggy?

Rajyasree: And then his brother is Baggy.

Abhinandan: And there’s a Half Pant? Is there a Chaddi also?

Rajyasree: Chaddi is the one who sells tickets outside that movie theatre y'all used to have in Delhi.

Rajyasree and Abhinandan burst out laughing. 

This and a whole lot of other stuff awful and awesome as Abhinandan Sekhri and Rajyasree Sen review the films Bell Bottom and Thalaivii; web series Only Murders in the Building and The Morning Show Season 2; Tinder’s short film Closure; the Manyavar controversy; and the new Coca-Cola ad.

PS: Abhinandan and Rajyasree give themselves code names.
