The podcast is back after a five month hiatus. We break the silence with Shyam Benegal's 1981 masterpiece Kalyug. Kalyug is a an adaptation of Mahabharata. Film was seen as a bit ahead of its times in 1981 the year of its release as it brought together a film maker like Bengal who is seen as pioneer of parallel Hindi cinema and modern day film stars like Shashi Kapoor, Rekha and Raj Babbar. The film presented a mouth watering opportunity to both Saahil and Saqib to construct an episode for the podcast. Hope the listeners enjoy the chat as much the hosts enjoyed the film and talking about it.
To celebrate the birthday of the great Rekha, we watched Utsav (1984), Girish Karnad's adaptation of the ancient Sanskrit play Mrichakatika. In our totally unbiased opinion this is Rekha's film through and through, but really everyone and everything else is great, with one exception that you can probably guess. This is one of our favorite Rekha performances! What are yours? Other discussions: • Is Rekha the best Hindi film actress for sensuality and sexual forthrightness? • The jewelry!!! • Isn't it amazing that Shashi Kapoor produced so many fantastic films in such a short window (1979–1984)? • Does Kulbhushan Kharbanda have BDE?

Continuing our Kapoor series, we discuss Shashi Kapoor's family in this episode: wife and actress Jennifer Kendal and their children Karan, Kunal, and Sanjana. If you know anything about them at all, it's probably that they all launched in films and never went anywhere as actors, but we watched a film starring each of them to flesh out that story. Jennifer, of course, was an accomplished stage actor before her marriage to Shashi, and when she chose to dip her toes back in acting, you can see the talent! Films discussed: Junoon (1978), 36 Chowringhee Lane (1981), Vijeta (1982), Sultanat (1986) (read Beth's essay here https://antiserious.com/sultanat-the-epic-of-fictitioustan-bf1f42c80838), and Hero Hiralal (1988) Have you seen any of these films?

This is our longest episode yet, and it had to be in order to give this often underappreciated Kapoor the respect he deserves. Masala, parallel, and international films: he did them all, and he did them all very well. We also discuss the very important question of what ice cream flavor each of the first four Kapoors would be. Films in focus this episode: The Householder, Jab Jab Phool Khile, Aa Gale Lag Ja, Suhaag,* Heat and Dust, and New Delhi Times. * Note: Beth misspoke about Rekha's line of work in this film.
