Come for the rants about Laxmii, stay for recommendations on what to watch instead in the realm of transgender cinema.
We discuss Akshay Kumar’s messiah complex, the film’s rotten writing, its harmful depiction of trans people, and whether it can even be described as a “movie”.
Later, we talk about the government’s decision to regulate streaming content, and how that could affect the industry.
