Cinema dekhar Basic Instinct Part 2

Picking up where we left off last week, we discuss the good, bad and ugly of 90s Bollywood movies. With Hirok da, we discuss the forbidden pleasures of watching a movie which our parents warned us against (and watched themselves), the rise of the Khans and the role of SRK in a Bengali's life, 90s Bollywood music and the emergence of Kumar Sanu before finishing off with the two Bollywood movies you should never watch.

Cinema dekhar Basic Instinct

We Bengalis love our cinema and more so if it is Bollywood. The snobs may look down upon us but some of our most cherished memories were formed in those dimly lit musty smelling movie theatres. And today we chat about those stories in the first part of two episode adda with Hirok da who joins us all the way from Singapore.


স্কুল পালিয়ে সিনেমা দেখতে যাওয়ার গল্প শুনতে চান? বিয়ের পরের দিন ব্যর্থ প্রেমিকের anthem বৌকে শুনিয়েছেন? ৯০ এর দশকের চলচিত্র দেখবার অভিজ্ঞতটা আর একবার ঝালিয়ে নিন. শুনুন কলির কথার এই পর্বটি.

Phuchka - Food of the Gods

পাড়ার মোড়ে দাড়িয়ে থাকেন একটি লোক. সাথে লাল কাপড়ে মোড়া একটা ঝুড়ি. উনি আমাদের সবার প্রিয় নেইবারহুড ফুচকাওয়ালা . ওনার অসাধ্য কিছুই নেই. দু হাতে অনেক জাদু নিয়ে উনি রোজ তৈরী করেন মায়া . যা না খেলে বাঙালি জীবন বৃথা. আজকের কলির কথার পর্বে আমরা কথা বলবো পুচকাওয়ালাদের নিয়ে. শুনতে থাকুন. .. .

Kolkatans love their biryani. They also love their phuchka. They can't decide which to love more - and there's valid reason for that.

Tumi Na Thakle - Anjan Dutta and his legacy

পাড়ায় ঢুকলে যদি কেউ ঠ্যাং খোড়া করে বা বেলা বোস যদি শুনতে না পায় বা তুমি না থাকলে তাজ মহল টা যদি বানানো না হয় তাহলে কি করা যাবে? বিশেষ কিছু নয় - কলির কথার দ্বিতীয় season এর প্রথম পর্ব শুনুন


Anjan Dutta, like Kolkata, is an emotion. We all grew up listening to his brand of jeebonmukhi gaan and sharing a common pain of love, loss and longing. In S2 E1 of Kolir Kotha, we delve into a heartening adda on what endeared him to the urban youth of Kolkata and what endures him still in their minds.

কলির কথা র একটি বিশেষ পর্ব নিয়ে আমরা উপস্থিত. সদ্য শেষ হওয়া বর্ডার গাভাস্কার ট্রফি নিয়ে আমরা পর্যালোচনা করেছি এই পর্বে| বাংলা ভাষায় এই বিশ্লেষণ করতে পেরে আমরা উৎফুল্ল. আমরা চেষ্টা করেছি, বাংলার গড়পড়তা কোনো চা এর দোকানে ক্রিকেট নিয়ে যে আলোচনা হয়, সেরকম একটা পরিবেশ তৈরী করতে| আমরা আশা করবো আপনাদের ভালো লাগবে. আপনাদের মতামত জানতে পারলে খুশি হবো. Season 2 is around the corner but, in the meantime, Shubho da and I thought of warming up our listeners with something new and fresh.

Baire Roga Bhetore Daroga - The Story of Kolkata Football

সব খেলার সেরা বাঙালির তুমি ফুটবল. বাঙালির ভালো লাগার খুব ওপরের দিকে থাকবে ফুটবল. এই পর্বে আমরা আলোচনা করছি ফুটবল নিয়ে. সঙ্গে থাকছে আমাদের আর এক বন্ধু পৃথ্বিজীৎ . আজকের পর্ব একটি নির্ভেজাল আড্ডা.

One of the few states in India where football is almost as important as cricket, Kolkata football has a storied history. With our guest Prithvi da, we try to cover some of those famous stories - from the perils of being an electricity board employee during the 1986 World Cup to Nigerian students getting recruited in kulfi shops to “so bad it’s good” Bangla football commentary.

DiPuDa - The Bermuda Triangle for Bengali travellers

বাঙালির একেবারে নিজস্ব ত্রিকোণ দিঘা পুরী দার্জিলিং বা দীপুদা. কলির কথার আজকের পর্বে আমরা আলোচনা করছি বাঙালির প্রিয় বেরানোর জায়গা নিয়ে.  আজকের পর্ব দীপুদা. থাকছে অনেক মজার গল্প.

Call it a holy trinity or West Bengal’s homegrown Bermuda triangle - there’s something about these places which keeps drawing Bengali travellers to Dipuda i.e. Digha, Puri & Darjeeling. From the humble dada-boudi hotels to the lavish feasts at Glenary’s and Keventers, from the sun-kissed peaks of Kanchenjunga to the indefatigable waves of the Bay of Bengal, from the pious fervour for Jagannath Deb to some quiet moments of solitude shared with loved ones, Dipuda has something for all.

Kolkata Biryani - The Emotion

কলির কথার দ্বিতীয় পর্ব - বিরিয়ানি বা বলা ভালো বাঙালির বেচে থাকার অতি প্রয়োজনীয় একটি উপাদান. রণে বনে মন খারাপ বা আনন্দে একমাত্র ওষুধ বিরিয়ানি. আমরা বিরিয়ানির গুণগান করবো এই পর্বে.  

What connects Rabindranath Tagore, Satyajit Ray and Nawab Wajid Ali Shah?  We don’t really know but are pretty confident that all of them would have enjoyed a plate of piping hot biryani at some point of time in their lives. In the second episode of our podcast Kolir Kotha, Shubho da and I chat about what makes biryani an irreplaceable life force for most Bengalis. And why the biryani aloo is probably the greatest thing ever invented (yes, we are looking at you, sliced bread)
