Is Raat Akeli Hai: The Bansal Murders more than just a way for director Honey Trehan to pay the rent, or is it actually worthwhile?We talk about the film’s differences from and similarities to the first one, and the sociopolitical commentary that Trehan and writer Smita Singh are able to sneak into it.We also discuss how the movie didn’t face any trouble despite naming and shaming the Uttar Pradesh administration.Along the way, we touch upon Radhika Apte’s pointless presence, and wonder if the movie would’ve benefited from some more character development for the suspects.—Hosted by Akhil Arora and Rohan Naahar, The Long Take is fully bootstrapped.
