Podcasts about Vikramaditya Motwane

After producing two movies about a hyper-masculine cop who literally lynches people, Nikkhil Advani has attached himself as an executive producer to Stolen, the new survival thriller on Prime Video.In addition to Advani, the movie needed the support of heavy hitters such as Anurag Kashyap, Kiran Rao, and Vikramaditya Motwane in order to get a release after a festival run that began in 2023. Fortunately, it did, because it's one of the better-made Hindi features of the year.We talk about the film's many layers, and how director Karan Tejpal weaves them into a tight narrative. We also discuss the film's larger commentary about contemporary India, and some of the writing missteps that it makes.—Hosted by Akhil Arora and Rohan Naahar, The Long Take is fully bootstrapped.

Sameer Nair’s career trajectory is co-terminus with the average millenial’s consumption of Indian television and media. From bringing international shows like Street Hawk and Knight Rider to national television in the late 80s to making us come of age with American soap operas The Bold and The Beautiful and Santa Barbara as programming head of Star TV in the late 90s; from reinventing prime time entertainment with Kyunki Saans Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi, and Kaun Banega Crorepati as Star India chief to bringing Balaji Telefilms to the OTT space as its Group CEO…and finally telling stories he wants as managing director of Aditya Birla Group’s Applause Entertainment which gave us Scam 1992: The Harshad Mehta Story, it’s been quite the journey for Nair. Joining him in today’s conversation is Vikramaditya Motwane, one of Bollywood’s rare auteurs with a remarkable body of work: from Udaan and Lootera to Sacred Games and the most recent Netflix show Black Warrant, produced by Nair’s Applause. Motwane and Nair talk about their latest show and upcoming projects; contemporary history and book adaptations; why the experience of cinema needs to change and why the entertainment industry needs disciplined fund raising; on Amar Chitra Katha and mafia; and why the Indian entertainment industry is looking at a positive 2025 after two difficult years.

Brown is so beautiful: natural and warm and sturdy, it reminds us of coffee and tea, trees and stones, antique furniture, fine leathers, furry friends, and, in the case of our chosen projects, the symbol of legal authority (khaki) and ageless history (old papers and ruins). Pitu watched Vikramaditya Motwane's new series Black Warrant (2025) and Beth watched the Bengali archaeology adventure Guptodhoner Sondhane (2018). Tell us what films you think of when you think of brown? And what amazing chocolatey or baked good do you like to eat while watching?

Vikramaditya Motwane's fascination with genre cinema continues. But his latest film, CTRL, isn't exactly going to win him any new fans. We discuss the film's mess of a script, which tries to cram in way too many ideas than it needed to. We also talk about its elaborate conspiracy thriller section and its melancholic third act. Along the way, we praise Ananya Panday for bringing nuance to a string of performances that could be misinterpreted as belonging to the same category. — Hosted by Akhil Arora and Rohan Naahar, The Long Take is fully bootstrapped.

Vikramaditya Motwane's Lootera has turned 10, and we are as eager to discuss it as an art thief is to find an unsuspecting zamindar! Everything has held up beautifully: the casting, the performances, the music, the visuals, the story.... It's a romantic, maybe naive little world, split into two parts that complement each other perfectly. What stands out most about #Lootera for you? Read the O.

What exactly is a showrunner? What is a writer's room and how do you set one up? Why are there so many power struggles and clashes on the sets of streaming shows between series creators and directors? Are series really a writer's medium? Filmmaker and the OG showrunner Vikramaditya Motwane is in many ways ideally placed to answer these questions. Back in 2018, his Sacred Games really kicked off this age of streamers, series and seasons with a bang as one of the first massive originals for a global streamer. Earlier this year his new show Jubilee was released on Amazon Prime Video. He's currently already hard at work on his next series. In today's episode, Vikram spoke to Suchin about how streaming has changed the game for filmmakers, why it's hard to nail the second season of a show, dealing with creative interference from platforms and why Jubilee wouldn't get greenlit today Follow me on : Instagram : https://instagram.com/suchin545?igshid=MmJiY2I4NDBkZg== Twitter : https://twitter.com/suchin545?t=Q1jBLqu1wm5TIqh-53liIw&s=09 Mentions Sacred Games - https://g.co/kgs/msMd9v Jubilee - https://g.co/kgs/k4VRkR Succession - https://g.co/kgs/VZxPdi Shakun Batra - Indian Filmmaker, best known for Gehraiyaan Navdeep Singh - Indian Filmmaker, best known for NH10 Pushpavalli - https://g.co/kgs/wLaA8e Tabbar - https://g.co/kgs/7KsvKK Decoupled - https://g.co/kgs/R4inRh

India Directed by Vikramaditya Motwane

In this episode, Ahendrila, Dhruv, Amartya & Sanjeet champion the new Amazon Prime show 'Jubilee", directed by Vikramaditya Motwane. Delving deep into Atul Sabharwal's divisive teleplay, the four discuss key character motivations, and structural elements that not only fit the era's style in which the show is set, but also, metaphorically, recreate India and Pakistan's painful Partition. Lots of praises are singled out for the show's exquisite camerawork, production design, music, and most of the performances (sorry Nandish Sandhu!)

This week, Jubilee director Vikramaditya Motwane and screenwriter Atul Sabharwal join us to discuss propaganda in films, the origin of Indian gaalis, and the makings of a good period drama. These are some of the movies, series and books we referred to in this conversation:  -The Knick -Buniyaad -Tamas -The Nudist on the Late Shift -Grapes of Wrath -Shakespeare Wallah Respectfully Disagree is The Swaddle Team's very own podcast series, in which we get together to discuss and dissect the issues we passionately differ on.

I really enjoyed the new period drama Jubilee, set in the 40s and 50s, and centered on the aspiration and ambition of a group of people from the world of Hindi cinema. I got a chance to pick the brains of writer Atul Sabharwal (Powder, Aurangzeb, Class of 83) and director/showrunner Vikramaditya Motwane (Udaan, Lootera, Trapped) on the scripting and the making of the show. We talked about everything from the research, casting and lighting of the show to the music and the exquisite closing seven minutes of the final episode.

Vikramaditya Motwane's period drama series Jubilee—now streaming in full on Prime Video—is meant to be a loving homage to the Golden Age of Hindi cinema, but it often comes across as emotionally distant. We delve into the show's fascination for backroom drama, personal betrayal, and behind-the-scenes politics. We also talk about the several pivotal moments that take place off-screen, and wonder whether the quality of visual effects and set design is satisfactory for a show of this scale. Later, we discuss the possibilities of future seasons, and whether any of these characters have a chance of returning. — Hosted by Akhil Arora and Rohan Naahar, The Long Take is fully bootstrapped.

Amazon Prime Video's sprawling new series Jubilee, directed by Vikramaditya Motwane, shines brighter in its individual parts than their sum. Check out Suchin's review of the series here.

a truly wonderful snapshot of the bombay film studios in the 40s & 50s prepartition, during & post partition. when actors & writers received monthly salaries & were employees of the studio. the dazzle of the black & white era & the advent of playback recordings & singing as opposed to actors singing live on screen & ofcourse the history of radio & cinema in this country both as a means of entertainment or a means of propoganda. the amazon prime video india series `jubilee` deals with all of that & the love stories & dramas of the people who were either working in those studio to make ends meet or working to survive in the post partition refugee camps. i simply loved this interview i did with director vikramaditya motwane and his principal actors aparshakti khurana, aditi rao hydari, sidhant gupta & prosenjit(the legendary actor from bengal who is featuring on my show/podcast for the very first time). so much rich conversation about production design, styling, performances & the history of the time! listen in & do watch the show, all the best “The HrishiKay Sessions” are produced & presented by Hrishikesh Kannan popularly known as Hrishi K Thanks for listening.

The digital landscape is perhaps the most exciting space for creative potential today, having transformed long-established modes of consuming, interpreting and interacting with text-based narratives. This is a golden age of entertainment as streaming services constantly evolve, challenging viewer expectations and bringing in new ways in which stories are created, absorbed and shared. In a fascinating session, the panelists exchange ideas on the process of adapting dynamic scripts to the screen, reimagining the text for the visual medium and broadening the possibilities of immersive, authentic storytelling.

Can't stop thinking about a coming-of-age film from 10 years ago that encapsulated masculinity both toxic and tender? Neither could we. We talked with writer and director Vikramaditya Motwane about Udaan, everything from Springsteen to Superman, the boys' clubs and brotherhoods, his own relationships with the men and women in his life and why men telling their own truths with authenticity can be heroic. It's unlike anything you've heard about the film or from the director, before. Listen!

Khandaan: A Bollywood Podcast kicks off 2021 with Episode 87 in which we are joined by Top Friend Beth (https://twitter.com/bethlovesbolly) from Beth Loves Bollywood (https://t.co/PrfJLj74Pm?amp=1) to discuss all the movies and shows we’ve been watching through the end of the year. Amrita and Beth watched BRIDGERTON (11m40s), the new Shondaland romance on Netflix. Everyone was super excited to watch WONDER WOMAN 1984 (43m48s)but it was sadly a racist, turgid mess and nobody has anything good to say about it. SOUL (38m10s) took Sujoy and Asim by storm while Beth really couldn’t handle COOLIE NO.1 (55m40s)starring Varun Dhawan and Sara Ali Khan, which was rather less than the frothy fun promised to us. Finally, Vikramaditya Motwane’s AK vs. AK (1h12m36s)starring Anil Kapoor & Family vs. Anurag Kashyap is one of the funniest, wittiest movies to have emerged from Hindi cinema in recent years, replete with Easter eggs for the discerning Hindi cinema buff.  Join us next time as we go through our list of the highs and lows of 2020.

Anil Kapoor, Anurag Kashyap, Vikramaditya Motwane with Hrishi K - AK vs AK by Hrishikesh Kannan

Starring Anil Kapoor and Anurag Starring in lead roles playing their real parts of that of an actor and director in reel life, AK vs AK is your conventional Bollywood masala film, and no, you can't afford to leave your brains behind while watching it. It's made intelligently, has a clever screenplay, even smarter direction and some ace performances that make it a wholesome watch. Kapoor's and Kashyap's camaraderie even while having a spat, looks so real that you are left to wonder if they're actually venting out for some old grudge or are they doing it just for the film. Directed by Vikramaditya Motwane, AK vs AK is an edge of the seat thriller that makes you guessing what's next and eventually treats you with the fabulously written climax. It also features Sonam Kapoor and Harsh Vardhan Kapoor in supporting roles. It's currently streaming on Netflix.

Is director Vikramaditya Motwane's meta-mockumentary AK vs AK a one-line premise stretched too thin? We discuss the film's inventive approach to Bollywood satire, actors Anil Kapoor and Anurag Kashyap's willingness to lampoon themselves, and cinematographer Swapnil Sonawane's use of long takes. Later, we find time to rant about Indian film critics (it us) being treated dismissively by international studios (we're looking at you, Netflix, Amazon, Disney, and Warner Bros.) — Hosted by Akhil Arora and Rohan Naahar, The Long Take is fully bootstrapped.

It’s AK aka Anurag Kashyap Vs AK aka Anil Kapoor in this new Vikramaditya Motwane film that’s streaming on Netflix.  Written by Avinash Sampath , it has cameos by Sonam Kapoor , Harshwardhan Kapoor, Boney Kapoor . Now everyone here is playing themselves. So Anil Kapoor is very much the star who like we see in the trailer expresses a desire to work with the maverick filmmaker Anurag Kashyap. Kashyap isn’t too enthused and makes his displeasure quite apparent.  Both soon fall headlong into a collision and verbal repartees fly and even physical blows are exchanged. Anurag goes ahead and talks about his crazy idea which he projects as “the most dangerous hostage thriller in the world of cinema”. Kidnapping Sonam Kapoor where only Anil gets to rescues her. Is this for real? Well that’s for all of you to find. VO: RJ Stutee

In AK vs AK on Netflix, director Vikramaditya Motwane and writer Avinash Sampath construct a narrative that consistently crisscrosses the boundaries of artifice and truth. Listen to Anupama Chopra's review to know more.

Vikramaditya Motwane (Udaan, Lootera, Sacred Games) is an Indian director, writer, and producer. Vikramaditya chats with Portbox about the global influence of Indian cinema while sharing notes from the beginning of his career. Madhav inquires about the inspiration behind Vikram's characters, and Vikram comments on the events that shaped independent films in Indian cinema. The two talk about the business of Indian cinema and how it has evolved over the years. Vikram highlights the importance of theatrical film releases and examines the future of independent cinema. They bond over the Mumbai vada-pavs, old Bollywood music, and their mutual heritage. This episode is a heavy-hitting cultural lesson. 

The two overenthusiastic idiots rant about why they like the movie and Vikramaditya Motwane. What starts of as a discussion about the movie, eventually turns into a look at the journey of Indian cinema's relationship with superheroes. They shout at eachother what they liked about Shaktimaan, Chacha Chaudhary, Krrish and RA one. Also, Arush continues on his mission to not let Avinash speak and refute any opinion he has. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/superiority-complex/support

Will explore what the movie business will look like post lock-down. Leading producers and filmmakers will weigh in on how this crisis is affecting production and the creative aspects of movie making.

Hrishi K with Kalki Koechlin & Vikramaditya Motwane - Sacred Games 2 by Hrishikesh Kannan

Netflix’s first Indian Original series, the first season of Sacred Games became a humongous success and this generally puts an unhealthy amount of pressure on the successor that has to match not just the weight of expectations but deliver a dynamic fresh new punch.

Helmed by Anurag Kashyap and Neeraj Ghaywan (who steps in for Vikramaditya Motwane) the pace and atmospherics promise another engaging season! Tune in!

In Episode 15 of the Khandaan Podcast, we switch up our format for a special series: over the next few episodes, we will discuss movies nominated by our audience as their all-time favorites. We begin with 1992’s Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikander. Starring Aamir Khan, this was the second film made by cousins Aamir and Mansoor Khan, co-starring Ayesha Jhulka, Dipak Tijori, Pooja Bedi, and the always reliable Khulbhushan Kharbanda among others. We are joined this week by The Guardian’s [Mike McCahill](https://twitter.com/mike_mccahill), who was watching this movie for the very first time whereas Asim, Sujoy and Amrita grew up with this film and its soundtrack as a constant in their younger lives. This movie is also rich in Bollywood trivia, some of which might be found [here](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ROlOyNMsm0U) in the reunion staged by Anupama Chopra and Rajeev Masand (yes, this is the same video that almost drove Amrita mad.) We also discuss the brand-new release Sanju, the whitewash special directed by Raju Hirani starring an eerily excellent Ranbir Kapoor, who rebounds in style from a couple of years of less-than-successful films. Co-starring Sonam Kapoor, Vicky Kaushal, Paresh Rawal, Manisha Koirala, Karishma Tanna, Anushka Sharma, and Dia Mirza, this movie should have been a knockout but sadly isn’t. Lastly, we look at Sacred Games, the first Indian original commissioned by Netflix. Starring Saif Ali Khan and Nawazuddin Siddiqui in the lead, ably supported by a large cast of pitch perfect actors (including Kubra Sait, Radhika Apte, Neeraj Kabi, Jitendra Joshi and others), it’s based on the Vikram Chandra novel and adapted to screen by Varun Grover, Smita Singh (not Bansal as Amrita says in the podcast, sorry), and Vasant Nath. Co-directed by Vikramaditya Motwane and Anurag Kashyap, this series sparked quite a bit of conversation. Subscribers are reminded that Khandaan is currently accepting nominations for our special run. Please send your suggestions for movies of the Khans that you feel we must watch to [upodcasting@gmail.com](upodcasting@gmail.com). Note: The Khandaan podcast is an interactive experience!

For episode 16, we have Shah Rukh Khan’s early era.

In this episode of our podcast, we are doing a detailed podcast about the first four episodes of Sacred Games. We are here analyzing the first four episodes of Ashwathama, Atapi Vatapi Halahala and Brahmahatya (not in order). Sacred Games is a new Netflix series by Vikramaditya Motwane and Anurag Kashyap. It is a thriller portraying the socio-political unrest and scenario of different timelines with that of the present time starring Saif Ali Khan, Nawazuddin Siddiqui, Radhika Apte, Kubra Sait, Jitendra Joshi etc. It is set in Bombay, India which is present-day Mumbai and follows a cat-and-mouse chase between policeman Sartaj Singh (played by Saif Ali Khan) and notorious criminal Ganesh Gaitonde. (Nawazuddin Siddiqui). Follow Us : https://instagram.com/brainskibaat/ YT channel : https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCEQg-6lBCvPZn921D0UlxrQ/
