Abhinandan initiates the discussion by dismantling Ek Haseena Thi, starring Saif Ali Khan and Urmila Matondkar, a movie Rajysree is fond of. Next, they discuss Kia and Cosmos, a movie about a girl with a development disorder (Ritwika Pal) and her mother (Swastika Mukherjee). Among other things, Rajyasree says that the movie is very beautifully shot and the portrayal of the mother's emotions was done well. They next discuss Toni Morrison, who passed away on August 5, 2019. According to Abhinandan, Toni Morrison was a revolutionary writer since she inspired the future generations of black writers that they “don’t have to write for the white man”.
