Bollywood, Propaganda & Box Office Madness | Shamik Chakrabarti | Cock and Bull.

What happens when Cyrus Broacha sits down with Shamik Chakrabarti? Zero structure. Maximum chaos.

In this episode of Cock & Bull, things spiral (fast) from stand-up comedy to Bollywood propaganda, box office logic, internet algorithms, and everything in between. One minute it’s comedy insights, the next it’s cricket, politics, or a completely random tangent that somehow still makes sense.

Expect:

• Brutally honest takes on Bollywood & pop culture
• The reality of stand-up comedy & writing
• Social media, algorithms & why we’re all slightly doomed
• Generational quirks like the infamous “millennial pause”
• And classic Cyrus-style chaos that refuses to stay on topic

Also featuring Shamik’s stand-up special “Despite Appearances” a story-driven set told across 7 chapters, blending personal stories with sharp observational humour.

If you like conversations that feel like a funny group chat come to life, you’re in the right place.’s for you.
