50. Verdicts, Violence, and Versatility Ft. Court & HIT 3

In this episode, we dive deep into Nani's cinematic double shift- stepping behind the camera as a producer for the grounded and gritty 'Court', and then switching gears to go full throttle as the lead in the high-stakes thriller HIT 3. We explore how these contrasting roles reflect the actor's evolving choices, his recent filmography, and what it says about his place in Telugu Cinema today. Whether he is backing powerful stories or leading explosive narratives, Nani is clearly playing on both sides of the screen-and winning.

48. Sipping Keeda Cola w/ Vivek Sagar!

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the biggest episode we have ever shot. We had the opportunity to bring on Vivek Sagar, the exceptional music director from the Telugu film industry (Pelli Choopulu, Ee Nagaraniki Emaindi, Raja Raja Chora, Ante Sundaraniki, etc.), on the podcast and have him discuss the ins and outs of indie and film music and the evolution of his music tastes. I hope you all have the same fun as we had while recording this episode. Enjoy!

47. Sandeep Reddy Vanga: The Real ANIMAL

NOTE: 1.25x speed recommended HEY PEOPLE! On December 1st dawned a new day. #animalmovie finally came out in the cinemas. We all, of course, were quite pumped... only to be thrown a movie that was unfortunately like maggi and ketchup. Join the boys and get hyper with them as they *literally* analyse Indian cinema's best mistake to date. If you liked animal wholeheartedly, we now know you also like maggi and ketchup and you may trip and fall. ENJOY!
