"We Thought Jaane Bhi Do Yaaro Was Trash!” - Sudhir Mishra Unfiltered.
Video Overview & Insights
Welcome to Cyrus Says!
Hey! Glad you guys liked the episode!
Do share your favourite moments with everyone!
Acclaimed filmmaker Sudhir Mishra joins Cyrus Broacha for a candid, hilarious, and deeply nostalgic chat about his journey through Indian cinema.
From sneaking into NSD classes without admission to co-writing Jaane Bhi Do Yaaro, Sudhir recounts his early days with legends like Kundan Shah, Naseeruddin Shah, Om Puri, and Saeed Mirza — and the chaotic brilliance that birthed India’s greatest cult classic.
Ask this entangled bastard how did india got its independence by roses and kisses?? He had the audacity to remake an isreali show where the IDF shown as heroes. Indian liberalism is a joke.
He opens up about the madness of the 80s art film scene, his love-hate relationship with Mumbai, the politics of filmmaking, and how he went from being a “tree in theatre” to one of India’s most respected storytellers.
🎥 Expect stories, philosophy, laughs — and a whole lot of film geekery.
