In this episode, Dhruv and Sanjeet welcome back QID OG Hemant to talk about Vishal Bharadwaj’s latest espionage thriller recently released on Netflix — “Khufiya.” Starring Tabu, Ali Fazal and Wamiqa Gabbi, Bharadwaj’s latest project promises to be both moving and thrilling. But is it? Listen to the full episode to know our thoughts on the film! After the initial, spoiler-free discussion, we delve into specific things we liked/disliked about “Khufiya,” and how both its narrative and formal elements compare to the director’s divisive previous features (“Pataakha,” “Rangoon”) and unanimously praised Shakespeare adaptations (“Haider,” “Omkara,” “Maqbool”).
