This week, Asim, Amrita, and Sujoy finally tackle a question nobody asked for but everyone secretly has an opinion on: Nora Fatehi vs Jacqueline Fernandez. From remix dominance (Dilbar, Saki Saki) to Badshah/Honey Singh eras, international collabs, original tracks, item song energy, and even the awkward “acting career” conversation, we go category-by-category and keep score. It’s affectionate, chaotic, and unexpectedly revealing about how Bollywood makes (and markets) its dance icons in 2025.

Drishyam 3: One Body, Too Many Twists?
Samantha deserves a better family, Sujoy makes a case for Mirzapur, and Asim has found two good jokes in Welcome to the Jungle. Was it worth sitting through the rest of the film? You can probably guess.
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.
