Discussing the new Cadbury Dark Milk ad starring Aishwarya Rai, Rajyasree says, “I can’t see whether the ad is that good or not as the chocolate, although she is looking very good.” They talk about the Netflix series Bard of Blood, a spy thriller which Rajyasree thinks is “just very very bad”. The Family Man on Amazon Prime is much better, she adds. “Watch it because they have managed to string the whole thing together very well. I’m impressed that Amazon Prime has a better original series than Netflix does.”The recent release Joker has garnered a lot of attention. But Abhinandan thinks the director didn’t do justice to the film and the character of Joker as the quintessential villain. Rajyasree adds, “This character has nothing. Neither do you feel bad nor does he scare you. You just wish he died.”They also discuss China’s ban on South Park and its creators’ apology to Beijing, Ram Gopal Varma’s latest offering, Beautiful, and much more.Tune in! Hosted on Acast.
