Acclaimed filmmaker Sudhir Mishra joins Cyrus Broacha for a candid, hilarious, and deeply nostalgic chat about his journey through Indian cinema.

From sneaking into NSD classes without admission to co-writing Jaane Bhi Do Yaaro, Sudhir recounts his early days with legends like Kundan Shah, Naseeruddin Shah, Om Puri, and Saeed Mirza — and the chaotic brilliance that birthed India’s greatest cult classic.

He opens up about the madness of the 80s art film scene, his love-hate relationship with Mumbai, the politics of filmmaking, and how he went from being a “tree in theatre” to one of India’s most respected storytellers.

🎥 Expect stories, philosophy, laughs — and a whole lot of film geekery.

This week on Cyrus Says AMA, Cyrus Broacha is joined by creator–comedian Pulkit Kochar, the man behind viral Bollywood trivia reels and the most meta jokes on Instagram.

Pulkit opens up about:

• His small-town journey from Jaito near Bathinda to working with East India Comedy, Pocket Aces, and Netflix
• Making memes for a living and why he left a steady job to become a full-time creator
• The madness of Bollywood marketing, content algorithms, and chasing virality
• A hilarious yet honest take on sex education, menstrual leave policies, and India’s selective “modernity”
• Plus, deep dives into Om Shanti Om, nepotism, Abhinav Kashyap vs Bollywood, and more

And of course — the classic AMA chaos you can only get on Cyrus Says!

🎧 Listen till the end for Pulkit’s funniest takes on movies, memes, and making it in Mumbai.

Actors Arjun Mathur (Made in Heaven) and Anshuman Jha (Mastram, Lakadbaggha) join Cyrus Broacha for a hilarious, thought-provoking chat about their new film Lord Curzon Ki Haveli — a dark comedy thriller that bends genres and expectations.

They talk about working together, the madness of making a “locked-room” film, the role of intimate direction in modern cinema, and what it means to take bold creative risks in today’s Bollywood.

Director Shashank Khaitan sits down with Cyrus to talk about his journey from Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania to Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari — exploring comedy, love, filmmaking challenges, creative risks, and creating the Dulhania Universe.

In this episode, Cyrus, Aakash, and Punit answer your most Indian questions — from loud bhajan uncles on Mumbai trains to awkward Diwali gifting office politics, and missed train crushes on the Central Line.

• India winning (and not taking) the Asia Cup
• The eternal struggle between work deadlines & Diwali lights
• How to handle a ₹500 Diwali gift for your boss
• That one uncle who treats the local train like his private mandir
