During the conversation, Dax called RRR a Bollywood movie and Priyanka in order to correct him made a more miserable mistake.

The podcaster was comparing Bollywood and Hollywood where he that a few actors and studios control everything. Priyanka agreed with him and said, "I don¡¯t think you are far from it. I think that was what it was...big studios, five actors...big movies will be made by them; but the game is changed so much now. First of all, it¡¯s streaming. It has given access to so many people who are making content.¡±

"Bollywood has evolved in such an incredible way. You have the mainstream big action and the love story and the dancing." Dux jumped and said, "RRR..." To which Priyanka immediately replied, "That¡¯s a Tamil movie by the way... It¡¯s like big, mega, blockbuster Tamil which does all of those... it¡¯s like our Avengers."

This is 2016 and we had common friends who like didn¡¯t want me to be in my [previous] relationship. They were like ¡®Oh, he is single too. He is not really with that girl but he is..' It was complicated on both our ends. Our friends were like you guys should meet and it didn¡¯t happen.¡±
