One of my favorite Arshad Warsi films turns 20 this week. Writer-director Shashanka Ghosh joins me to talk about Waisa Bhi Hota Hai Part 2, a film that was an absolute trip and had banger of a soundtrack that included Kailash Kher's chartbuster Allah Ke Bande. Crazy stories about a crazy film. Join us!

Hansal Mehta joins us for a chat on two of his early films, Dil Pe Mat Le Yaar and Chhal. One's a black comedy about end of innocence. The other's a sharp action drama centered around betrayal.  Both films had compelling story lines, terrific cast, great music and both attempted something new in their technique. Two films I wish more people would watch. Why? I make my case on the episode. Join us!
