This week, Asim, Amrita and Sujoy catch up on one of the busiest weeks Bollywood has had in months.

We review Alpha, the latest entry in YRF's Spy Universe starring Alia Bhatt and Sharvari, before diving into two of the year's most affecting films: Mein Vaapas Aunga and Satluj. Along the way we discuss censorship, Partition, state violence, memory, the National Film Awards, and why some stories still matter decades later.

• Alpha — Did the YRF Spy Universe miss the mark?

• Mein Vaapas Aunga — Imtiaz Ali's moving exploration of memory and Partition.

• Satluj — A powerful film surrounded by controversy and censorship.

• Ikka — Sunny Deol returns to the courtroom.

• National Film Awards reactions.

• Remembering legendary playback singer S. Janaki.

• Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey.
