Podcasts about Amrita

Asim and Amrita are joined by Pakistani drama reviewer Sophia Q to discuss the opening episodes of Mitti De Baway. Does the much-anticipated pairing of Mahira Khan and Wahaj Ali deliver? We get into the three timelines, the performances, the striking production design and the amount of slow motion. The longer conversation also takes in Pakistani dramas more broadly, from subtitles and international audiences to the shows Sophia thinks are worth watching. Contains spoilers for the opening two episodes. There's a video version of this episode on the Khandaan Podcast YouTube channel. If you watch it and enjoy it, please give it a like.

Sujoy thinks Kunal Khemu's Vibe is one of Bollywood's best films of the year. Amrita appreciates Khemu's distinct comic voice but wonders whether the movie occasionally feels like a showcase for its writer, director, producer and star. Asim reviews Netflix's Lust Stories 3 and asks why four acclaimed filmmakers have delivered an anthology that feels so strangely uniform. The main review is Best of the Best, a South Asian college dance comedy starring Maitreyi Ramakrishnan. The hosts discuss girlhood, female friendship, colourism, diaspora identity, cultural gatekeeping and the importance of joyful South Asian stories. Sujoy, meanwhile, remains unconvinced by the film's dancing, college rivalries and Hasan Minhaj. Also: Preity Zinta, Bollywood music rights, Kunal Khemu versus the YRF Spy Universe and Asim inventing yet another Indian celebrity.

Watch the full video and support Khandaan on Patreon → https://www.patreon.com/khandaanpodcastWe revisit English Babu Desi Mem, the 1996 Shah Rukh Khan film that gives us three SRKs and somehow still leaves us wanting less. Sujoy chose English Babu Desi Mem. Amrita would like to know why. In this episode of Khandaan: A Bollywood Podcast, Asim, Amrita and Sujoy revisit one of the strangest films in Shah Rukh Khan's 1990s filmography. Loosely remade from the Clark Gable and Sophia Loren film It Started in Naples, it features Shah Rukh in a triple role, Sonali Bendre as a cabaret dancer raising his nephew and a plot that appears to abandon logic almost immediately. We discuss Shah Rukh's wigs, accents and aggressively broad performance, Sonali Bendre's place in 1990s Bollywood, the film's peculiar ideas about British Indians, Sujoy's enduring love for the soundtrack and whether the voiceovers, flashbacks and abrupt ending suggest that the production simply ran out of money. Is this really one of Shah Rukh Khan's worst films? And more importantly, should Sujoy ever be allowed to choose the movie again?

Watch the full video version exclusively on Patreon: Khandaan on Patreon Asim, Amrita and Sujoy are finally back together for Episode 317, with two very different movies on the agenda: Yash and Geetu Mohandas' Toxic, and Shahid Kapoor, Kriti Sanon and Rashmika Mandanna in Cocktail 2. Toxic leads us into a surprisingly complicated conversation about masculinity, the female gaze, sex, violence and whether Geetu Mohandas has actually smuggled something interesting into a giant Yash mass movie... or whether Asim and Amrita are giving the film far more credit than Sujoy thinks it deserves. Then there's Cocktail 2: part relationship drama, part Judaai, part Reddit AITA post. We discuss Shahid Kapoor's increasingly intense screen persona, Kriti and Rashmika, the original Cocktail, and how Bollywood romance somehow went from grand declarations of love to “tu meri phati hui T-shirt hai.” Plus, Asim recommends Babitha Singh Reporting, Amrita brings us Bethlehem Kudumba Unit, and your listener questions take us into Bollywood's sequel obsession, David Dhawan's retirement, Varun Dhawan's career, whether the Khans will ever play grandfathers, and what happened to the stars who emerged in the 2000s. And we end with a wonderful email from longtime listener Pragati, who has been with Khandaan since the Irrfan and Rishi Kapoor episodes and, most importantly, would like slow motion to finally retire.   00:00 Amrita Is Late & Khandaan Is Getting Older09:20 Toxic Review28:00 Toxic: Masculinity, Women & the Female Gaze38:00 Are We Reading Too Much Into Toxic?46:50 Yash, Kiara Advani & Final Toxic Thoughts53:50 Bethlehem Kudumba Unit56:30 Babitha Singh Reporting1:02:00 Cocktail 2 Review1:07:00 Cocktail 2: AITA Meets Judaai1:11:00 What Happened to Shahid Kapoor?1:17:00 Listener Questions: Bollywood's Best & Worst Sequels1:22:00 David Dhawan, Varun Dhawan & the Khans as Grandpas1:27:00 What Happened to Bollywood's 2000s Stars?1:34:00 Email & the Khandaan Community1:39:00 Wrap-Up

Welcome to today's episode of FreightWaves Today! In this episode, we explore the cutting-edge technology, Q2 financial results, supply chain strategies, and market dynamics shaping the logistics and transportation industry. Here is what we cover in today's show: AI-Powered Freight Execution with Overroute Alex Reed, Founding CEO of Overroute, joins the show to discuss the official launch of their AI-led freight execution platform. Developed in a year-long co-design partnership with J.B. Hunt, the platform uses AI agents to automate shipment coordination, detect exceptions, and streamline customer communications directly within existing carrier systems. Alex breaks down how the technology works day-to-day, how exceptions are handled, and the role of human oversight in AI-driven logistics. RXO Q2 Earnings & Market Share Growth Drew Wilkerson, Chairman and CEO of RXO, breaks down the company's Q2 financial performance and market strategy. RXO reported strong volume growth across its business, with truckload volume outperforming the market by growing 2%. Drew shares how a 42% spot mix drove gross profit per load, the impact of agentic AI on operational productivity, and why he believes the freight market is in the early stages of a recovery. Managing Summer Retail Surplus & Returns Amrita Bhasin, Co-Founder and CEO of Sotira, returns to discuss how retailers are navigating late-summer return spikes and excess seasonal inventory heading into fall. Amrita explains how Sotira leverages AI to match overstock inventory with secondary buyers and donation markets—helping brands protect their bottom line while keeping surplus goods out of landfills. Transportation M&A & Freight Market Capacity Craig Decker, Managing Director at Brown Gibbons Lang & Company, provides an inside look at the dealmaking environment across logistics and transportation. Craig explores how capacity leaving the system—rather than a surge in demand—is driving early signs of freight market recovery, and what buyers and sellers need to know about transportation M&A activity heading into 2026. ⁠Follow the FreightWaves Today Podcast⁠ ⁠Other FreightWaves Shows⁠ Learn more about your ad choices.

This episode originally aired in 2025 and, as one of our most-loved conversations, we're sharing it again with you today."Before you speak, ask yourself: “Is it honest? Is it kind? Is it necessary? Is it the right time? Does it improve the silence?” - Sathya Sai Baba  Today, Erin and Sasha explore the 5th Chakra of speech, poetically named Vishuddha, meaning “purification of poison.” Vishuddha Chakra represents the Ether element, and the ability to turn poison into nectar - the process of purification. It is located in the throat, and is the seat of the power of the word. It brings Prana to the respiratory system.   “The more silence behind your word, the greater the impact.” You may find, upon personal practice, that the simple elegance of Silence can be prescribed to most internal challenges. This chakra represents the quality of honest communication, turning ignorance into awareness, transmutation, choice, alchemy, infinity, receptivity, sensitivity, self-expression, “finding one's voice,” the ability to speak from the heart, and the ability to listen from the heart. Used properly, Vishuddha makes our words nectar, not poison. All poison becomes nectar when Vishuddha is strong and stable, developed and activated.   Our words create reality, and since they originate from thought, our thoughts create our reality. Therefore, words are not only descriptive, but creative. When Vishuddha is activated, everywhere you go, becomes better as a result of you being there. If too much noise is there, too much talking or too much thinking, Vishuddha cannot be stabilized, because the element it represents is Ether (spaciousness, emptiness).   The bija mantra for Vishuddha is “Hum,” which means “I am.” Because on a micro-level, we are God: the creator, preserver, and destroyer. Which brings me to the story of Samudra Manthan, the churning of the ocean. Once upon a time, the devas (gods) and asuras (demons) were on a quest to retrieve Amrita, the sacred nectar of immortality. In doing so, they had to churn the ocean using Mount Mandara as the churning rod, and Vasuki (the serpent King) as their rope. As they churned in what appears to be the original tug of war, Divine gifts emerged, like Lakshmi, the goddess of wealth, and the celestial cow Kamadhenu. However, before the Amrita appeared, a deadly poison called Halahala surfaced, threatening to destroy all of existence. Terrified, the devas and asuras turned to Lord Shiva for help, and in an act of supreme selflessness, he took the poison to his mouth to prevent it from harming creation. But instead of swallowing it or spitting it out, he held it in his throat, where it turned his skin blue, earning him the name of Neelkantha (the Blue throated one).   This moment of holding and transforming toxicity without allowing it to spread, is the symbolic origin of the Vishuddha Chakra. Just as Lord Shiva purified the deadly poison without letting it harm him, Vishuddha governs the purification of thought, word, and energy. Shiva's restraint symbolizes conscious speech, wisdom, and the power of truth.   The throat chakra teaches that life contains both poison (negativity, challenges) and nectar (divine wisdom). It is our ability to process, hold, and transmute energy that determines our spiritual growth. This chakra represents self-mastery, communication, and purification. Like Shiva, we must learn to hold challenges with grace, not letting toxicity consume us but instead transforming it into wisdom. When our Vishuddha Chakra is balanced, we speak with clarity, authenticity, and purpose, just as Shiva's act saved creation. Send us Fan MailThis episode is brought to you by Ojas Oasis Ayurveda, Sasha's private clinical practice.

Thisweek on Khandaan, we're covering a little bit of everything. Amrita returns from her accidental social media detox with glowing skin, better sleep, and a newfound appreciation for blissful ignorance. Then it's on to the movies. We discuss Chand Mera Dil and why its young-love-meets-adult-responsibility story left us feeling older than ever. We talk Ananya Panday's performance, the strange online discourse around the film's dance sequence, and whether Lakshya can successfully pivot from action star to romantic lead. Sujoy reports back from Drishyam 3, exploring how the latest chapter shifts from thriller to character study and asks what life looks like after Georgekutty gets away with everything. Asim recommends Dacoit: A Love Story, a Telugu romantic thriller starring Mrunal Thakur, and wonders why Bollywood still seems unsure what to do with one of its most compelling actresses. And finally, we dive into Zombeeid (or Zombie Eid), Pakistan's first zombie movie. Despite the online backlash, we found a surprisingly entertaining genre film packed with zombie mayhem, steroid-fuelled horror, Pakistani humour, and some genuinely impressive gore on a modest budget. Plus: A varied episode, but exactly the kind of film-and-pop-culture catch-up we love doing.

Amrita Chowdhury and Ujaan Ghosh bring into English for the first time a long-inaccessible masterpiece of South Asian literature Baidehisha Bilasa: The Amorous Plays of Sita's Husband (2025). Composed in the late seventeenth century by Upendra Bhanja — the Odia prince-poet hailed as Kavi Samrat, the Emperor of Poets — the work is a Ramayana that privileges shringara, the erotic sentiment, over martial heroism. Rama-the-lover overshadows Rama-the-warrior, and his conjugal life with Sita takes center stage in a poem dense with puns, classical ragas, and chitrapadya — word-arrangements that resolve into wheels, chariots, and arrows on the page. Famously, every verse begins with the letter ba, and the text has long been considered untranslatable. With a preface by Wendy Doniger, Chowdhury and Ghosh's decade-long translation preserves the strangeness and sensuality of the original while opening it to a new readership.

This week we review a recent report from the team at Amrita Institute in Cocchin, India about their use of extended reality and virtual reality as well as heart model printing to aid in planning for complex intracardiac baffles for the treatment of complex congenital heart defects. What was the process used to provide actionable advice in the operating room during surgery? How has the team in southern India created a workflow that can accurately predict this complex anatomy and the patches needed to successfully septate complex hearts? We speak with the director of the 3D imaging group at Amrita, Professor Mahesh Kappanayil about this remarkable achievement of imaging in collaboration with surgery. DOI: 10.1016/j.jtcvs.2026.03.616

This week, Asim, Amrita, Sujoy, and special guest Parth from TooManyTats revisit Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna — the glossy, messy, deeply divisive relationship drama that pushed Bollywood into uncomfortable territory. Twenty years later, does Karan Johar's infidelity epic still work? The gang unpack Shah Rukh's aggressively miserable “Dev,” Rani Mukerji's quietly heartbreaking performance, Sexy Sam's outrageous energy, and why this film feels both ahead of its time and completely stuck in the 2000s. There's also a detour into today's Bollywood stars, OTT-era morality, Cannes discourse, Pati Patni Aur Woh Do, and whether Maya and Dev would actually survive modern Toronto rent prices. Expect classic Khandaan chaos, emotional damage, soundtrack worship, and a surprising amount of analysis about chewing gum etiquette.

Expect conversations about 90s fashion, Bollywood's disappearing rom-com energy, questionable drunk acting, random Karisma Kapoor cameos, and why every rich family in Hindi cinema apparently owned plastic lawn chairs.

We get into the current slump at the box office, why modern romcoms aren't landing the way they used to, and the growing feeling that a lot of what's coming out just isn't connecting anymore. Along the way, we talk awards drama, stand-up comedy, industry fatigue, and what audiences actually want from Hindi cinema. It's a looser episode than usual, but one that ends up going a bit deeper than expected.
