Episode Synopsis

The mere whiff of the words ‘Hotstar Specials’ is enough to make us wish for the sweet release of death.
This week, we rant about The Great Indian Murder—the new “murder mystery” starring Richa Chadha and Pratik Gandhi—and wonder what sort of moral bankruptcy enabled the creation of a disaster of such magnitude.
We discuss Tigmanshu Dhulia’s amateurish filmmaking, the strange structure of the plot, and the terrible performances of its central cast.
As we go along, we discover—much to our displeasure—that try as hard as we might, we can’t keep certain memories of the show repressed forever.
