How would a Telugu movie tackle the Covid situation? How will the hero save the masses from the pandemic? Will he use ancient Indian wisdom or modern science? Will there be two heroines or three?
At Pittagoda, we imagine a whole new (or maybe not) reality. Hopefully, it will never be made into a movie!
Featuring the Pittagoda gang, Ravi, Sarat, Jayanth and Deepa

Deepa talks to Sarat about the book "Before We Visit The Goddess", written by Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni. The book is a tale of mother-daughter relationships across three generations. It is essentially a tale of loss and pain, while also being a chronicle of the women's respective journeys of triumphing over their circumstances.

For endurance cyclists Gokul Krishna and Raman Garimella, a hundred-kilometre ride is a walk in the park. Literally.
Gokul and Raman, both of whom are from Hyderabad, pursued their passion for cycling in their own unique ways. They have also cycled together and worked together. They now bring their collective experience to a book called "Escape Velocity: The Definitive Desi Guide to Cycling" for anyone who is a cycling newbie. In this episode, they talk about their book, their cycling adventures; and which desi cyclist's story is complete without a shout-out to Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikandar, Maga Maharaju, Race 3 and Srimanthudu?
Gokul also co-owns The Bike Affair, a bicycle store in Hyderabad. Also, if you want to listen to more of him, head to his podcast: https://anchor.fm/theindiancyclingpodcast

Sangeetha and Rohit discuss the graphic novel Habibi, written by Craig Thompson.
Set in a fairy tale landscape, a strange and timeless place called Wanatolia, Habibi tells the story of two individuals - Dodola and Zam, both orphaned at a young age and brought together through chance, circumstances and shared misery. They grow up through the book and discover their love changing from that of a mother-child (as a provider-dependant) to siblings (as playmates) to lovers.
Ever since its publication, Habibi has been called mysterious, racist and everything in between. Listen to this conversation about this controversial book. -

We sent Ravi on a dangerous mission this week - that of watching a murder mystery featuring an ageing star. We don't have a problem with ageing stars, except when they are in denial. Luckily, Tollywood went full Sherlock Holmes this fortnight and released a second, better murder mystery. Listen to Ravi talk about Agent Sai Srinivas Atreya and Kalki. And find out what a British model is doing in a Rajasekhar movie.

The threat to the 80-100-year old banyans of the Hyderabad-Bijapur road galvanised the Nature Lovers of Hyderabad to find a sustainable solution to development projects. They are a group of people from diverse backgrounds who are deeply concerned about trees and the ecosystems they support. They hope this experience can inform a wider cause: impacting state and national policy towards trees and other forms of nature.
