Bollywood, Propaganda & Box Office Madness | Shamik Chakrabarti | Cock and Bull

What happens when Cyrus Broacha sits down with Shamik Chakrabarti? Zero structure. Maximum chaos. In this episode of Cock & Bull, things spiral (fast) from stand-up comedy to Bollywood propaganda, box office logic, internet algorithms, and everything in between. One minute it’s comedy insights, the next it’s cricket, politics, or a completely random tangent that somehow still makes sense. Expect: Brutally honest takes on Bollywood & pop culture The reality of stand-up comedy & writing Social media, algorithms & why we’re all slightly doomed  Generational quirks like the infamous “millennial pause” And classic Cyrus-style chaos that refuses to stay on topic Also featuring Shamik’s stand-up special “Despite Appearances” a story-driven set told across 7 chapters, blending personal stories with sharp observational humour. If you like conversations that feel like a funny group chat come to life, you’re in the right place.’s for you.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
