About this episode
This episode, the chaos begins with names—Jim Sarbh explains the minimal effort behind his naming, while Amit Sadh reveals how his was the first thing that must’ve popped into his parents' heads. From there, it’s a deep dive into their backgrounds—Jim’s posh Mumbai schooling and expat education, and Amit’s roots in Lucknow and a couple other places, his dad’s sports legacy, and a shared alma mater with Cyrus.
The trio bond over their football allegiances (Liverpool, Man Utd, Arsenal—civil war!), working on Pune Highway with Rahul and Bugs, and a surprising amount of love for biking, animals, and awkward film screenings.
We also get stories from their first films (Kai Po Che, Neerja), biking as therapy, illegal rallies, acting school camaraderie, and one wildly specific joke comparing Cyrus to a Cyprus tree.
It's raw, real, and very Cyrus Says.
