He's baaaack! Filmmaker, writer, and journalist Nihit Bhave (Sacred  Games, Choked, Dobaaraa, Phir Kabhi) returns to discuss the new Kannada  smash hit Kantara. Nihit and Pitu both loved this "divine  blockbuster"—kya tagline! It's beautiful, it's fascinating, it's  hyper-specific, and it's utterly unique. (Beth plays moderator in this  non-debate because she didn't get to see the film yet—but she WILL see  it for sure!)   

Other films we mention: Fandry and others by Nagraj Manjule, Jogwa by  Rajiv Patil, Tumbbad by Rahi Anil Barve, and Sonchiriya by Abhishek  Chaubey.
