He's baaaack! Filmmaker, writer, and journalist Nihit Bhave (Sacred Games, Choked, Dobaaraa, Phir Kabhi) returns to discuss the new Kannada smash hit Kantara. Nihit and Pitu both loved this "divine blockbuster"—kya tagline! It's beautiful, it's fascinating, it's hyper-specific, and it's utterly unique. (Beth plays moderator in this non-debate because she didn't get to see the film yet—but she WILL see it for sure!)
Other films we mention: Fandry and others by Nagraj Manjule, Jogwa by Rajiv Patil, Tumbbad by Rahi Anil Barve, and Sonchiriya by Abhishek Chaubey.
