Hera Pheri South Bombay Edition | GnR Concert | AMA with Shamik Chakrabarti

In this hilariously unfiltered AMA episode, Cyrus and Shamik tackle the truly important questions of our time. With the rail budget going up, should we expect trains to finally run on time—or just more confident announcements? They debate what one really needs to survive a 4 km walk to a Guns N’ Roses concert: water, willpower, or a cardboard cutout of Slash. There’s talk of a potential Hera Pheri: South Bombay Edition, a suggestion that Neeraj Chopra might just double as a missile launcher, and whether Uorfi Javed’s Cannes moment has emotionally prepared us for her Met Gala debut. Plus, is the $3500 iPhone actually just an “iLoan” now? Should AppleCare come with financial counselling? And with the IPL being rained out left and right, is it time to rename it the Indian Puddle League—or just switch to water polo? All this and more, on a rain-soaked, tech-broke, fashion-forward episode of Cyrus Says.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

‘The flowering of goodness can never take place when the mind is respectable, when the mind is conforming to a pattern – the social pattern, an ideological pattern or a religious pattern.' This episode on Respectability has two sections. The first extract (2:45) is from Krishnamurti's fourth talk in Bombay 1965, and is titled: The Framework of Respectability. The second and final extract (45:54) in this episode is from the sixth talk in London 1961, and is titled: Respectability and Conditioning. Each episode of the Krishnamurti podcast is based on a significant theme of his talks. Extracts from the archives have been selected to represent Krishnamurti's different approaches to these universal and timelessly relevant topics. This episode's theme is Respectability. Upcoming themes are Thinking, Sensitivity and The Scientific and Religious Mind. This is a podcast from Krishnamurti Foundation Trust, based at Brockwood Park in the UK, which is also home to The Krishnamurti Centre. The Centre offers a variety of group retreats, including for young adults. There is also a volunteer programme. The atmosphere at the Centre is one of openness and friendliness, with a sense of freedom to inquire with others and alone. Please visit krishnamurticentre.org.uk for more information.

Degens Andy S and Brandon Bombay stop by a strip club while on duty to talk about an action-comedy classic, 'Beverly Hills Cop.' Bombay opens up discussion about this fish out of water tale of a Detroit cop with some stories about his family dealing with cops while living in Detroit. Then the fellas dive into the movie, which has a thin plot that is just an excuse to let prime Eddie Murphy riff, and let killer '80s songs rip. The inciting incident involves Murphy's Axel Foley being visited by a "hoodlum" friend from his past, and that leads to Andy recalling when he had to cut ties with an uninvited house guest. In the flick, that leads to Axel heading out to Beverly Hills where he befriends mismatched friends Taggart and Rosewood while talking himself out of countless situations by lying on the fly. Comedy does the heavy lifting, but there's some great action set pieces, a screaming irate police captain — which Hollywood needs to bring back as a trope — and infectious tunes peppered throughout. It closes with a freeze frame of Murphy making a goofy face into the camera before cueing up a Patti LaBelle track. Much like the film being discussed, the fellas do not take themselves very seriously this episode.

In 2022, Michelle Yeoh became the first Asian actress to win the Academy Award for Best Actress. But she wasn't the first actress of Asian origin to be nominated. In 1935, Merle Oberon was nominated for Best Actress for the role of Kitty Vane in The Dark Angel, only her second film in the U.S. film industry. But no one knew Oberon was Asian. Her public biography said she was born to white parents in Tasmania, eventually moving to India and, from there, to the UK. But Merle Oberon, in truth, was of Anglo-Indian origin, born in Bombay. She'd hidden her heritage to get around U.S. censorship and immigration laws—a secret she took to her grave, even if many in the industry suspected the truth. Mayukh Sen tackles Oberon's life in Love, Queenie: Merle Oberon, Hollywood's First South Asian Star (W.W. Norton: 2025). Mayukh Sen is the James Beard Award-winning author of Taste Makers: Seven Immigrant Women Who Revolutionized Food in America (W.W. Norton: 2021).

Degens Andy S and Brandon Bombay "whatchya gonna do 'fore they come for you?" before talking about a buddy cop movie that not only kickstarted a franchise, but changed the face of action movies, 'Bad Boys.' Bombay starts it off with a story of hitting up dicey clubs and after hours in Miami, and then making friends with a drug dealer at one of the city's most notorious shady spots. Then the fellas dive in on Michael Bay's slick, over-stylized actioner that helped shape the look, and framework of action flicks for years to come. Bolstered by two leads in Will Smith and Martin Lawrence who have immeasurable chemistry, charisma, and charm. It also featured an underrated sultry performance from Megan Fox's blue eyed, dark haired prototype, Tea Leoni. Ultimately, it leads to the guys championing for the resurgence of family-friendly R-rated movies that have naughty words and guns, but are ultimately a good time for the whole family.

Degens Andy S and Brandon Bombay come to the realization that they just became best friends while talking about 'Step Brothers.' Andy starts off the episode by detailing how his real life battle with a roommate over a drum kit lead to an unfortunate physical confrontation — very much like Dale and Brennan in the movie. Then the boys talk about one of the last great R-rated studio comedies that is anchored by Will Ferrel and John C. Reilly, but elevated by an incredible supporting cast including Adam Scott, Richard Jenkins, and Kathryn Hahn. Inspired by the opening of the flick, the guys get deep into the weeds and share their recipes for makeshift nachos that are just tossed in the microwave. Afterwards, Kathryn Hahn's uncomfortable forward facing bathroom sex scene leads Bombay to remember a unique position he pulled off with an ex. Of course there's discussion about bunk beds, and freeing up room to do so much activities. This episode will have you grooving and nodding your head as if you were listening to "Boats n' Hoes."

Sam recounts his early life spent in Kenya, transitioning to Canada in 2005, and the challenges and triumphs along the way. He discusses the importance of adapting to a new culture while staying rooted in one's heritage, and his family's successful venture into the financial advisory business. The conversation explores the dynamics of the Indian community in East Africa, the process of immigration to Canada, and insightful advice for new immigrants. The episode also touches on Sam's personal life, including his experience with the Canadian health system during his son's birth and the importance of maintaining a work-life balance in a family-run business. 00:00 Introduction to Diasporaa 00:21 Meet Sam Bhatnagar: From Chandigarh to Vancouver 02:20 Life in Kenya: A Journey of 17 Years 03:54 The Indian Community in East Africa 09:02 Moving to Canada: A Family Decision 12:21 Settling in Canada: First Impressions and Challenges 13:58 Starting Over: New Jobs and New Beginnings 17:04 Building a Financial Advisory Business 22:47 Advice for New Immigrants 25:31 Overcoming Negative Experiences 26:21 The Importance of Reaching Out 29:25 Balancing Cultural Exposure 32:04 Managing Family Business Dynamics 36:42 Navigating Parenthood and Healthcare 41:51 Building Connections and Abundance Mindset 47:36 Funny Cultural Mix-Ups 49:31 Nostalgic Sounds and Smells 51:11 Conclusion and Farewell List of Resources: Chandigarh: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chandigarh Greater Vancouver Board of Trade: https://boardoftrade.com/ Gujaratis in East Africa: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gujarati_people#East_Africa Lake Victoria: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lake_Victoria Best Cities for Quality of Life Rankings: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/City_quality_of_life_indices About the Podcast: Diasporaa was the name of Aditya's startup based in Vancouver, BC. It focused on helping new immigrants in Canada find their feet, get off to a running start and ease their assimilation into Canadian life. A big part of the platform were conversations, community and support. Though the startup stopped growing once Aditya moved to Seattle, WA - it remained alive in the form of several discussion groups and online communities. Now, Diasporaa has been resurrected in the form of a podcast focused on sharing interesting immigrant stories from the South Asian diaspora and uncovering how much we have in common despite our differences. It is available on YouTube, all major podcast platforms such as Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, etc. and is also broadcast as a radio show on Alternative Talk 1150 AM and 98.9 FM HD Channel 3 on Wednesdays from 2-3pm PST. About Aditya Mehta: Aditya is a Bombay boy who has lived in Austin, Los Angeles, Washington DC, and Vancouver before making it to his current home in Seattle. He has degrees in marketing, urban planning, real estate and strategy but has spent his career in financial services, social media and now real estate - mostly as an entrepreneur and partly as an employee at Amazon. He balances Indian, Canadian and American culture, loves helping those who are new to North America and looks forward to the interesting stories that his interview guests bring each week. When not podcasting, he is helping his wife Prachi build her pharmaceutical business or hanging out with his son Arjun.

One of my personal idols growing up, Juhi Pande, sits with us in this wonderfully reflective episode to talk about her eclectic career as a TV host, presenter and VJ on Channel V, and what exactly prompted her to leave that career and make the move from Bombay to London.We dive into the highs of early media life (casually interviewing the likes of Rakhi Sawant and Sanjay Leela Bhansali as part of the job), the quieter shifts that followed, and the deep grief of suddenly losing her best friend and business partner; a moment that changed everything for her. Juhi shares how she slowly began to rebuild, grounding herself in the act of making with her hands, eventually founding Skunk, a line of beautifully crafted soaps made with intention and care. And then, the whirlwind that was becoming a mother at 39 and how that's transformed her life in beautiful ways she had never imagined.This conversation is nostalgic and full of the kind of honesty that will stay with anyone trying to figure out what comes after the pivotal moment.Explore Juhi's work on: Website: https://skunksuperstore.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/skunksuperstore/

Degens Andy S and Brandon Bombay are the American sh*theads who make chicks with bricks while talking about action classic, 'Bloodsport.' Bombay breaks records while kicking things off in record time with a story about when he visited Hong Kong and had a surreal experience at a hooker bar. Then the fellas show what the hell a dim mak is, as they fearlessly enter an underground tunnel before discussing the movie that turned Jean-Claude Van Damme into a star during the VHS era. The guys debate if young Frank Dux was mentally slow, or just a clueless sports fan who loves Giants, and Andy recalls a time he stole a katana sword of his own. There's also plenty of discussion about real life shyster Frank Dux who parlayed a whimsical tale about an illegal martial arts tournament — and a few purchased trophies as proof of his exploits — into Cannon releasing a film based on his story. Plus, why did the film fictional Dux stay up all night banging a girl he just met before the biggest fight of his life? All of this, and of course the boys have to talk about Paul Hertzog's dreamy score coupled with Stan Bush's power ballads. This episode was recorded to honor you, shidoshi.

Sona Falstaff, a hospital nurse in Bombay, has things more or less where she wants them. Yes, she faces a certain discrimination, positive and negative, because of her mixed heritage, which makes her a “half-half” in the lingo of 1930s India. She lives in a poor section of the city, and she must work to support herself and her aging mother. India itself is a state of flux as the British Raj comes to an end and demands for independence increase in intensity and volume. But all in all, Sona wants nothing more than to cling to the job and the life she knows. Yet when the painter Mira Novak is admitted to the hospital, she upends Sona's carefully constructed world. Mira's vibrancy, passion, and generosity awaken a yearning to explore that Sona didn't even know she had. But just as she begins to cherish the possibility of friendship, Mira dies, six days after entering the hospital. The job Sona loves is threatened by suspicion that she somehow contributed to the painter's death. Sona soon discovers that Mira has left her a set of four paintings with instructions to deliver them to their rightful owners. Now she faces a choice: fight for her job and play it safe at home, or take a chance on finding her true self in the wider world, whatever risk that involves? The contrast between Sona and Mira, the friendship that develops between them, and the slowly revealed history that lies beneath Sona's reluctance to take chances are all beautifully laid out in this well-written novel, making Six Days in Bombay (Mira Books, 2025) a delight to read. Alka Joshi is the internationally bestselling author of the Jaipur Trilogy: The Henna Artist, The Secret Keeper of Jaipur, and The Perfumist of Paris. Six Days in Bombay is her fourth novel. C. P.

In this Hip Deep program, we explore musical connections between Africa and India. First up is the story of the Afro-Indian Sidi community. In the 13th century, Africans arrived in India as soldiers in the armies of Muslim conquerors. Some were able to rise through the ranks to become military leaders and even rulers. Their descendants continue to live in India today, performing African-influenced Sufi trance music at shrines to the black Muslim saint named Baba Gor. Next, we dive into the swinging jazz era of 1930s Bombay, when African-American jazz musicians arrived by the dozen to perform at the glitzy Taj Mahal Hotel. They trained a generation of Indian jazz musicians who would become instrumental in the rise of India's Hindi film music industry. Then we head south to the island of Sri Lanka, where Africans have had a presence for almost 500 years. We explore their history through the groovy Afro-Indo-Portuguese pop music style known as baila, popularized by 1960s star Wally Bastiansz and still performed at parties in Sri Lanka today. Finally, we speak with Deepak Ram, a Indian jazz flutist who recounts his experiences growing up Indian in apartheid South Africa. Throughout, we hear from leading experts, and of course, introduce fantastic and often-unexpected music. Produced by Marlon Bishop APWW #663

Additional notes:Sarojini Naidu Quote referred by Sohini:“Never, never, for we realize that men and women have their separate goals, separate destinies and that just as man can never fulfill the responsibility or the destiny of a woman, a woman cannot fulfill the responsibility of man…We ask for the vote, not that we might interfere with you in your official functions, your civic duties, your public place and power, but rather that we might lay the foundation of national character in the souls of the children that we hold upon our laps, and instill into them the ideals of national life.”—Sarojini Naidu at the Special Session of Congress in Bombay, August 1918.Source: Women in Modern India by Geraldine Forbes, Cambridge University Press, Pg 94Quote referred by Khyati:When the 33rd Session of Indian National Congress met in Delhi in Dec 1918, Saraladevi Chaudhurani presented the resolution supporting the vote for women. Going beyond the assertions of Sarojini Naidu, Saraladevi contended that the “sphere of women” included “comradeship with men in the rough and tumble of life and to be fellow workers of men in politics and other spheres.”Source: Women in Modern India by Geraldine Forbes, Cambridge University Press, Pg 94Chess has Open and Women's category.Read more:Book | The Day I Became a Runner : A Women's History of India through the Lens of Sport by Sohini ChattopadhyayIndian Express | Boxing with binaries: The Imane Khelif story by Sohini ChattopadhyayThe Lancet | Personal Account: A woman tried and tested by Prof María José Martínez-PatiñoRelated Puliyabaazi:आज़ादी की राह: चलो याद करें संविधान की महिला रचयिताओं को। Founding Mothers of the Indian Republic ft.

Degens Andy S and Brandon Bombay trade cheesy one liners as they talk about a quintessential '80s film, 'The Running Man.' Bombay starts off the show by telling a story about a friend who brought a surprise contestant to a drunken cinema screening of this movie. Then the fellas discuss a flick which may be lesser Arnie, but is an incredibly fuck viewing. They start by debating who was a bigger p-hound in their heyday: Arnold Schwarzenegger or Richard Dawson. That's followed by free-flowing conversation covering the flick which is brimming with both corny juiced up villains who neglected to hit the gym such as Buzzsaw, and a past his prime Jim Brown. Eventually the movie kicks it into overdrive and the plethora of one-liners overpowers the audience like a chokehold from Captain Freedom. It all leads to a fist pumping conclusion as Arnie trades a kiss with the underrated beauty, Maria Conchita Alonso, and a triumphant power ballad plays. Which leads the guys finishing off the episode by pitching the titles of their own power ballads before they "had to split."

Ireland may have been England's first colony but, by the 17th century, Irishmen were carving out their own imperial legacies in India. Gerald Aungier, an ambitious East India Company official, saw Bombay as a new frontier for plantation and trade. Drawing from his family's plantation experience in Ireland, he laid the foundations for the establishment of the legal and economic framework that would define colonial rule in India for centuries. A hundred years later, John Nicholson, an Ulster-born soldier, became a symbol of British military might - and brutality. Known for his extreme violence during the 1857 uprising, Nicholson led savage campaigns against Indian rebels, earning both devotion from his men and horror from his enemies. His actions, once celebrated in Britain, are now remembered as some of the worst atrocities of colonial rule. At the height of the Raj, another Irishman, Lord Dufferin, presided over India as Viceroy. Deeply aware of Ireland's own history under British rule, he feared that Indian nationalism would follow the same path as Ireland's Home Rule movement. So, how did these Irishmen shape the empire that once subjugated their own people? Listen as William and Anita are once again joined by Professor Jane Ohlmeyer, author of Making Empire: Ireland, Imperialism and the Early Modern World, to uncover the contradictions of Irish imperial history. _____________ Empire UK Live Tour: The Booze & Brews live show is going on a UK tour!
