Listen "Mimi"
Episode Synopsis
The Kriti Sanon-led Mimi is an improvement on the 2011 Marathi-language original, and still somehow downright terrible.
We discuss the disingenuous twists, its unwillingness to confront reality, and director Laxman Utekar’s embrace of tonal imbalance as a defining characteristic.
Along the way, we delve into the film’s irresponsible and egregious handling of surrogacy, suicide, bigotry, and other heavyweight topics.
