For this episode, I sat down with Dibakar Banerjee to have Delhi’s most iconic dish, Chole Kulche, and had a multi-layered conversation about his films, school days, the star system in Bollywood, and why he seems to be disowning his earlier works.
We also discussed the current state of affairs in India and society at large, his involvement in edits and his flaws. From disagreeing on some topics to agreeing on others, we’re back with another exhilarating conversation.
