Happy Ganesh Chaturthi everyone, and welcome to the 51st episode of Wicked Games! 🎙This week, the boys are joined by two powerhouse storytellers—Nitin Suraj and Shashank Reddy from The Photomural. Known for their striking visuals and distinct storytelling style, these boys have been making waves in the indie film scene.In this episode, we dive deep into their journey of filmmaking, their take on Coolie and F1, and of course, their much-awaited short film “Still Here”—dropping on their YouTube channel on 5th September 2025. It’s a conversation packed with creativity, film talk, and some wicked insights into what it takes to carve your path in cinema. Trust me, you don’t want to miss this one!Guest Socials: / @thephotomural

In this episode, we dive deep into Nani's cinematic double shift- stepping behind the camera as a producer for the grounded and gritty 'Court', and then switching gears to go full throttle as the lead in the high-stakes thriller HIT 3. We explore how these contrasting roles reflect the actor's evolving choices, his recent filmography, and what it says about his place in Telugu Cinema today. Whether he is backing powerful stories or leading explosive narratives, Nani is clearly playing on both sides of the screen-and winning.

In this episode, we dive into the much-anticipated blockbuster Pushpa 2. From breaking down the trailer to discussing what makes this franchise a cinematic phenomenon, we’ve got it all covered. Plus, we share some personal stories and updates from our lives—because what’s a podcast without a little heart-to-heart? Tune in for film talk, fun banter, and a slice of life!

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the biggest episode we have ever shot. We had the opportunity to bring on Vivek Sagar, the exceptional music director from the Telugu film industry (Pelli Choopulu, Ee Nagaraniki Emaindi, Raja Raja Chora, Ante Sundaraniki, etc.), on the podcast and have him discuss the ins and outs of indie and film music and the evolution of his music tastes. I hope you all have the same fun as we had while recording this episode. Enjoy!

NOTE: 1.25x speed recommended HEY PEOPLE! On December 1st dawned a new day. #animalmovie finally came out in the cinemas. We all, of course, were quite pumped... only to be thrown a movie that was unfortunately like maggi and ketchup. Join the boys and get hyper with them as they *literally* analyse Indian cinema's best mistake to date. If you liked animal wholeheartedly, we now know you also like maggi and ketchup and you may trip and fall. ENJOY!

NAMASTEY! In this episode of Wicked Games Podcast, Preethis share their fears, tackle adulting, talk about going from ages 19 to 22 in an instant, Rushil's mom catches the boys drinking out, AI gets out of hand, LEO movie is a glorious showpiece, commercial changes, and more!

Hop onto this magnanimous episode and enjoy!
