Sudhir Mishra: The Rebel Filmmaker Who Changed Indian Cinema.
Season 1 Episode 1567
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.
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.
