Cinema is a way of life for some of us. Mahima Venugopalan is a film curator who lives by that statement. Leading a double life as a chemical engineer by day and a curator by night, I deep dive into our shared love for the world of south indian cinema and how it has gained prominence over the years. We talk about regional films, it's best actors & stories that use cities as a character of it's own...

Season 03 comes bearing more questions than answers, more apprehension than certainty about the little romance I share with Bangalore. As I deep dive into all that action that I missed out in the city in the last 2 years, uncover and hopefully revive your own romance with the city.

Mid-season bonus episode whaaaaat!! Got the chance to sit down and have a chat with @mahlyf_mahrulez for a little longer than his reels last.

Unclench your jaw boys, that’s jawline ain’t showing. Sit back, relax and enjoy this next episode brought to you with love & caution from myself and @priya_rangan Growing up in today’s Bangalore naturally means that there are several invisible hurdles and some visible ones. We’re addressing the visible ones today by talking about the F*ckboy culture in Bangalore. We’ve all at some point interacted...

From capturing Mr. Nags Kannadiga tics to directing Danish Sait’s A1 Instagram content, Vamsi has been at the fore of creating many la...

In all my years of schooling in Bangalore, the most memorable moments have always been the van rides in the morning listening to the radio. . . . Radio has shaped up such a incredible identity for the city and I just knew that I had to delve into further. To give you a sense of nostalgia and to give me an unforgettable memory that I’ll remember for a long long time here’s RJ @sriramsullia Someone...

Celebrating 3 months with all 20 of my listeners lmao. This episode is just 6 minutes of me letting y’all into my mind so y’all know what a scatter brain I can be. Love doing episodes by myself and I’d love it if y’all share your feedback and suggestions on what you’d like to hear! Would also like to know what your thoughts on today’s topics were! Hope you enjoyed it!

The 6 years of my friendship with @shruti_kondi and @abhapriyaanand is bound by love, bad jokes and laughter but mostly it is held intact with our mutual adoration for a solid South Indian breakfast. Over the years, the three of us have traveled and discovered many such spots that we share notes on and obsess over endlessly until we hop on to our next new spot. In this episode @shruti_kondi joins...

Uncertainty is a household name that we’re not ready to warm up to yet but are slowly trying to accept. I had the urge to say this and put this out and I just did. No script, no guests, just me and my recorder!

Sony Signal, Silk board junction, Hebbal flyover...Just some casual stress inducers to remind you of the good old days in Bangalore Traffic. Joining me in this episode is the lovely @malavika_wadiyar who recalls that time when she got stuck in a skywalk lift and more! Hope you enjoy this episode.

We’re going old school this week as we talk about studying and growing up in Bangalore. It’s own quirks, slang and some of our funniest moments from those years.

For teens that grew up in Bangalore between 2015-2017, that was a very specific period in the city’s timeline where we all thronged poorly lit pubs and bars that encouraged underage drinking on Church street! This became an agent through which we began socialising with everyone we found there. Join us as disha and I reveal each other’s most embarrassing and funny accounts of our time in church str...
