0 January 13, 2026 10:59

This special report offers a dual focus, first examining the critical Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) elections in Mumbai, held after a three-year delay. The program explores the disconnect between political rhetoric and the daily civic struggles of residents, such as poor air quality, potholes, and water supply issues. Featuring media personality Cyrus Broacha, the segment highlights how shifting alliances and name-calling have overshadowed basic urban governance needs. Subsequently, the report shifts to the entertainment world with an interview featuring comedian Vir Das discussing his directorial debut, ‘Happy Patel Khatarnag Jassoos’. Das reveals the film’s 10-year journey, his collaboration with producer Aamir Khan, and his creative process in crafting a ‘counter-culture’ spy comedy that stars Imran Khan.
