Back on our bullshit with the incomparable Sarita Choudhury. You Might Know Her From Homeland, Mississippi Masala, Jessica Jones, She Hate Me, Kama Sutra: A Tale of Love, Learning to Drive, A Hologram for a King, and The Hunger Games: Mockingjay. Sarita tells us her pal Sakina Jaffrey convinced her to come on our little show and we are so glad she did. We talk about Sarita’s upcoming horror film Evil Eye out on Amazon Prime on October 13, sitting next to her Homeland husband Mandy Patinkin on an airplane while he reads sheet music, and, of course we had to quiz her on her plethora of lesbian and bisexual characters. This one was especially sweet! Let us know what you think with a little review, wontcha?
