Bollywood just had its biggest film in years. Everyone's calling it a civilisational shift in cinema. We disagree.In this episode, Ishu and Pratik break down why Dhurandhar is a singular event — not a blueprint. Why films like Baahubali and Dangal didn't change anything either. And why the people predicting a new era of Bollywood are going to be wrong.We also get into the content creator gold rush around Dhurandhar, R Madhavan's bold claims during promotions, the Sabarmati Report connection, and end up in a full film recommendation spiral — Animals, Hachi, Nocturnal Animals, 3 Idiots, Room, and more.

Honest opinions. No hype.— Pratik & Ishu🎙️
