For our 100th episode, we have something special planned. Just kidding, it’s yet another movie that we’ll never talk about ever again.
Jayeshbhai Jordaar is—simultaneously—not as deranged as it should have been, and also one of the most miscalculated mainstream Hindi movies you’re likely to see this year.
We talk about Ranveer Singh’s uncharacteristically muted central performance, the film’s counterproductive approach to female empowerment, and its tone-deaf handling of some very real issues.
