Why is no one talking about Moeen, that jail scene Is one of the most heartwarming in recent history

[hasinabegumsayed]

Zoya is so smart and knows her movie, many directors wouldn’t be able to handle this questionnaire

[deepakhada]

She's absolutely right with Vijay Raaz's character. It was very important for him to SEE him on that stage and realize it IS possible. Without this arc the movie would be empty at some level.

[Pheonix_]

MC Sher literally overshadowed Murad in the film on many ocassion. He is just too perfect for the role!

[saurabhsaroha]

It was great to see director's perspective. Normally interviewers stick to stupid questions, this was different.

More of this please. At least for good movies.

[nishant]

Wow Explanation on Kalki character is so awesome. Now this movie is beyond 5 stars

[samyasom]

If Zoya Akhtar collab with netflix and make a webseries it would be awesome.

zoya - "it's my movie, i can do whatever i want";
others - *pikachu face.jpg*

Mc sher was my fav character from the film apart from Sakhina’s mom, they should have given more scenes to shiba chadda.
I thought after he didn’t get selected he will back fire on Murads character but story went so well and real. Fab

[lyricvibes]

Zoya is so humble❤
I mean she is calm and polite💕
Sweet

[Comebacktoalmighty]

This movie was realistic and every character is portrayed amazingly

[sharanyashastri]

This is such great content tho!!! Would love some more deep dives and level headed discussions like this!!

[shubhammangla]

The questions were amazing. Other directors like Farah khan would've fainted with these questions.
Zoya is very smart.

[mishthi]

If only non artists and non dreamers understood that artists can be born in any class and it's ok to be an artist and dream to persue it even when they are broke !!!

I loved loved loved how well she understands the questions and explains ... her choices of words .. clear to all

[shoebkhan]

I’m going for my second viewing whenever I get time.

[Innerexplorer]

Good questions !
My first attempt at RAP, a tribute to Zoya and her vision !
Zoya tu aisi hai director
Jiske saath kaam karna chahe har ik actor!
Picture tu aisi banaati hai, jo masti masti mein dil ko chhoo jaati hai !💖✌️👊

[doaa]

Even me understand Ranver's outfits at the beginning of the movie .. He's a normal person who was not yet a rapper ..😒😒😒

[nikhilmahajan]

I would've loved to hear what are Zoya Akthar's views on MC Sher character overshadowing Murad. Ranveer especially known for his flamboyance, was given the role to being the 2nd guy in the club. It must have been a very unique process cast selection.

We want more of these type of interviews with follow up questions.
