    I'm sorry but I wish the session was just about Kiran and Richa having a conversation with each other. The host was so disappointing that it became a torture to go through this. I really wanted to hear from the two guests, so I had to keep going 😞! Two specific requests to the host- 1. Please Please Please, for God's sake, NEVER ask someone why they got divorced, what didn't work for them, and then why are the friends with their ex, etc. It's SO disrespectful and insulting. Just because someone is politely answering your question, doesn't mean you should keep invading their privacy and keep asking really personal questions. Nobody gets married with the plan of getting divorced. Things sometimes just don't work. And no matter how many times you ask them, they are NEVER going to tell you the truth, especially in public! And you introduced Kiran as "someone who left a marriage"- are you serious? 2. Please don't speak so much about your thoughts, ideas, and your life when you are interviewing guests. It wasn't about you but about them. I wanted to hear so much more from Kiran and Richa but ended up hearing SO much from you.

    Richa Chadda is one among the most brilliant actors in India at this point of time.....She is also so well-spoken.....Much love to both the ladies ......Laapaata Ladies was perhaps the best movie I have watched in the last five years..... Simplicity is very very difficult to film.....and Kiran Rao executed the entire project with so much passion and love ..... ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
  • The host was terrible- looking for dramatic headlines about ex’s, body shaming etc. just terrible. Using your platform to make other women feel bad about themselves . So much grace shown by Kiran and Richa for putting up with this obnoxious questioning.
  • @deepmonig
    Why is shoma fixated with only asking questions about "friends with exe's ex" or personal life rather than focusing on work and their worldview.
  • @rajesinha
    She is hell bent on imposing her mondset on the guests
  • Only a conversation with Kiran and Richa would have been great. The anchor was a misfit.
  • @radhikanagu3541
    Very disappointed with the interviewer’s line of questioning. Invasive, uncomfortable and very unprofessional. When after non stop questions to Kiran about her marriage and divorce, she asked Richa about marriage and began the question as, “Kiran just exited a marriage and you just entered one…”, I lost it and shut the video.
  • @impk070
    Who is the female producer which Richa spoke about at 42 43 mins ??
  • @maheshreek404
    Old black n white movie ghunghat with Bina Roy etc has the same story of brides getting exchanged in train. So may b this movie is inspired by that old classic?
  • @rashu8252
    Kiran Rao and Richa both inspiring women ❤❤❤
  • @shafkat111
    Such a delightful question , answer session
  • @Saneymi
    Why did the host dig so Much into Richa’s eating disorder?? She clearly didn’t want to divulge into it! Kiran about why did she get divorced?? What was that about. She speaks more than needed as a host.

    Shoma Chaudhary / Reporters / whatsoever the interviewer, Can you please stop asking personal questions about their personal lives because of getting a TRP. This is quite stereotypical reports and low graded. Hope you guys will behave from now onwards. 😀

    So desperate to talk about Amir part. The personality is so much more. The interviewer shows mediocrity
