In this absolutely chaotic and laugh-out-loud episode of Cyrus Says, Cyrus Broacha is joined by comedians Shamik Chakrabarti and Siddharth Dudeja for a wild ride through the world of cricket, comedy, current affairs, and some truly bizarre AMA questions sent in by the Discord community.

The trio dives into everything from Nicholas Pooran’s surprise retirement to picking their World Cup XI vs India XI teams, debating which cricketers deserve a biopic, and hilariously deciding which actors should play them. There’s also a tribute to MS Dhoni being inducted into the ICC Hall of Fame, and a laugh-filled attempt to explain RCB's hypothetical IPL ban to an 8-year-old.

They also tackle serious and silly topics alike—talking about stampedes and stadium safety, underrated IPL bowlers, and the totally unexpected return of Vijay Mallya “after years”.

Packed with sharp banter, ridiculous hypotheticals, and real cricket analysis (kind of), this episode is the perfect blend of comedy and commentary you didn’t know you needed.

What happens when a city-bred actor known for Netflix dramas finds herself playing a small-town role in Gram Panchayat? In this episode of Cyrus Says, Cyrus Broacha sits down with Akansha Ranjan Kapoor for a candid, funny, and deeply relatable conversation about life in the spotlight — and everything it isn’t.
Akansha opens up about growing up in a film family, why she still had to hustle hard to make her mark, and how formal training at Whistling Woods gave her the confidence to pursue acting seriously. From juggling PR jobs while auditioning to landing her breakthrough in Guilty, her journey is filled with unexpected turns — and plenty of self-deprecating humor.
They talk about the unexpected creative freedom she found working with TVF, and how roles like Gram Panchayat challenged her to step out of her comfort zone. Along the way, the conversation spirals into relatable chaos: the decline of social drinking, generational shifts in social media behavior, and why some parents just shouldn’t comment on their kids’ reels.
This episode is about more than acting — it’s about identity, adaptability, and growing up in public. Whether you’re a Gen Z listener, a Bollywood buff, or just someone who’s terrified of driving in Indian traffic, you’ll find something to laugh at, relate to, or learn from.

In this candid and heartwarming conversation, Cyrus Broacha sits down with Fardeen Khan for an episode that traces the highs, lows, and rebirth of a Bollywood legacy.

Fardeen shares rare stories of his father Feroz Khan’s tough love, how he entered acting, and his experience in film school. He reveals how a call from Ram Gopal Varma changed everything, what it was like working with the visionary director, and why RGV was unlike anyone else in the industry.

They dive into fatherhood, personal transformation, and what led to Fardeen stepping away from the spotlight — and what brought him back. He talks about his journey of sobriety, massive weight loss, and returning to acting with Heeramandi and the upcoming Housefull 5.

Off-topic and full of wild takes, this AMA with Atul Khatri and Cyrus Broacha hits everything from “Sindhis without Aanis” to mastering Lifafa Economics (how much lifafa is enough?), Indian Standard Time, and know why Atul likes the idea of a giant Cyrus statue out of the options given by fan!

No topic’s off-limits:

• Starting comedy at 48 : late bloomer or legend?
• Corporate shows - awkward applause and paycheck struggles
• Dog named butter
• Marriage myths, misfires, and the why did they say “No More Jokes”

In this episode of Cyrus Says, environmental activist Zoru Bhathena joins Cyrus for a candid and insightful chat on fighting for Mumbai’s green cover. Zoru shares the story behind his first PIL – sparked by a shocking sight of dead trees in the Khar-Bandra area, and how that launched him into a life of legal activism. He also dives deep into the Aarey Metro Depot case, unraveling the legal battles, civic pushbacks, and his unwavering fight to preserve one of Mumbai’s last green lungs.

Expect stories of legal chaos, civic apathy, and a lot of leafy passion – with a dash of Cyrus’ usual madness.

On this episode of Cyrus Says, Aussie legends Sam Perry and Ian Higgins from The Grade Cricketer podcast drop by for a chat.
From the bizarre world of Australian grade cricket culture to the unspoken rules of how players must behave in the locker room showers, the duo serves up insight with a side of satire.

They talk about touring India, their run-ins with the BCCI, and why they were told they couldn’t even mention the IPL or team names. They also reflect on their surreal interview with Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, who ended up meeting their families!

From sharing their thoughts on cricketing greats like Ben Stokes, David Warner, Stuart MacGill, Sachin Tendulkar, and Rahul Dravid, to navigating cricket’s ever-evolving media landscape, Sam and Ian bring humour, honesty, and a bit of chaos.

Whether you're a hardcore cricket nerd or just here for the laughs, this one's a must listen.

Mumbai is underwater (again), and so is Cyrus’ will to live — but that doesn’t stop this Cyrus Says AMA episode from turning into full-blown chaos. Joining him are Puneet Pania, who’s grumpier than the weather, and Akash Mehta, whose back pain has nothing to do with age and everything to do with… let’s just say other activities.

The trio plunges into Mumbai’s coastal road mess, train-soaked trauma, and the weird magic of Zomato/Swiggy delivery guys — who somehow appear in your lift exactly when you open the door, like teleporting ninjas with momos.

Akash takes us to Thailand, shares a food story you can’t un-hear, and wonders why Indians always look sad while traveling.

Meanwhile, the AMA section serves up gems like how Cyrus became a human alarm clock, the mystery of Mysore Pak all of which has a witty twist to entertain the listeners.

Packed with Puneet’s pessimism, Akash’s awkward honesty, and Cyrus’ desperate attempts to stay on track, this one’s pure, delightful nonsense. Basically, a normal day at Cyrus Says.
