We love a movie about movies. A story about telling stories that really asks... why do we tell stories in the first place? This week's film artfully presents this question: do we tell stories for acclaim, or to reveal a truth about the world? Two (fictional) powerhouses of the 1950s Tamil Cinema world duke it out to see whose motivation will triumph, with disasterous consequences for just about everyone, and no clear answer of who wins or who loses. Kaantha was written and directed by Selvamani Selvaraj and stars Dulquer Salmaan, Bhagyashri Borse, Samuthirakani, and Rana Daggubati. Like what you're hearing?

We're back after our Holiday Hiatus, and we think there's something to the idea of starting the year with a really, really bad movie. Nowhere to go but up! Enter: Baaghi 4, the latest installment in a franchise built around Tiger Shroff's charm, dance ability, and martial arts excellence. Of course, this movie has... almost none of any of those things. Lucky for us the ridiculousness veers into hilarity, particularly whenever a certain flautist is on screen. Baaghi 4 stars Tiger Shroff, Sanjay Dutt, Harnaaz Sandhu, and Sonam Bajwa. It was directed by Harsha. Like what you're hearing? Remember to follow us on Instagram @2whitegirlstalkbollywood. Can't get enough Bollywood?

It's that time of year again, when we celebrate the passing of one year into another. And what better way than with a truly wonderful, sort of terrible movie? That's right, it's our third annual re-watch of the Shah Rukh Khan, Farah Khan classic, Happy New Year. Dance competition? Hacked. Diamonds? Theived. Our hearts? Full. Laugh with us, cry with us, and raise a glass to 2025 ending and 2026 being just around the corner. After this we're taking a little break, but we'll see you all on January 27th!

It's time once again for us to look back on our year and discuss the highs and lows. And luckily, unlike most other aspects of 2025, this year for our podcats was almost exclusively highs! Join us as we talk about our fave and least fave watches this year, as well as crown our Bollywood Being of 2025. There's also a short and sweet blooper reel to round things out. Note: this episode has an "explicit" rating for one tiny F-bomb during the blooper reel. Like what you're hearing? Remember to follow us on Instagram @2whitegirlstalkbollywood.

We're taking another vacation from Bollywood this week and venturing back into Malayalam Language Cinema. And you can bet this will not be our last trip to Mollywood, because we will at the very least need to watch the rest of this series as it comes out! Chandra's story is the first installment of the Lokah franchise, and we're hooked. This movie is heartfelt, action-packed, funny, and sets up a universe we can't wait to explore further. It was written and directed by Dominic Arun and stars Kalyani Priyadarshan, Naslen, and Sandy. Like what you're hearing? Remember to follow us on Instagram @2whitegirlstalkbollywood.

We've been waiting 5 years for the sequel to 2019's War! And... we're not as disappointed as we thought we might be! The Yash Raj Films Spy Cinematic Universe is finally bringing us back to super spy Kabir and his roguish yet heroic adventures. There are explosions and impossible feats of strength galore in this action packed flick that also tries to pull at your heart strings. Whether or not it's successful is less important than the fact that it's fun, and silly, and so far over the top we're not sure where the top is anymore. War 2 was directed by Ayan Mukerji and stars Hrithik Roshan, N. T. Rama Rao Jr., Kiara Advani, Anil Kapoor, and Ashutosh Rana. Like what you're hearing?

We've been talking for months about the directorial debut of SRK's son, Aryan Khan (and, frankly, so have many others). But we have to admit, we were a bit underwhelmed by the first four episode of Ba***ds of Bollywood. Here's hoping the second half of the series gets into the irreverant satire and sharp criticism we were expecting! But in the meantime, we're loving Lakshya and Manoj Pahwa, and not minding the random appearance of some of our industry faves. Ba***ds of Bollywood also stars Bobby Deol, Sahher Bambba, Anya Singh, and Manish Chaudhari. Like what you're hearing? Remember to follow us on Instagram @2whitegirlstalkbollywood.

After several weeks looking to the past, we're settling back into 2025 with Metro... In Dino. The film follows several interwoven stories of couples at various life stages as they grapple with... infidelity. That's... pretty much it. Everyone is cheating in some way, shape, or form in this one. And yet the film isn't a thorough exploration of infidelity? We're not really sure what it is, but we certainly enjoyed discussing it. And we always love to see Aditya Roy Kapur, Anupam Kher, Pankaj Tripathi, and Sara Ali Khan on our screens! Neena Gupta, Konkona Sen Sharma, Ali Fazal, and Fatima Sana Shaikh round out this ensemble cast. The film was written and directed by Anurag Basu. Like what you're hearing?
