He’s the mastermind behind Zombivli and one of India’s leading voices in the horror-comedy space — Aditya Sarpotdar joins Cyrus for a chaotic, hilarious, and surprisingly emotional AMA episode. From creating zombies during the pandemic, to audition tapes with tomato ketchup, to his great-grandfather making films in 1925, Aditya walks us through four generations of filmmaking, Marathi cinema nostalgia, and why Mumbai desperately needs a zombie sequel. They dive into: How Zombivli was born during lockdown What zombie auditions REALLY looked like Anthakshari with zombies (yes, seriously) His family’s 100-year legacy in Indian cinema The lost art of film stock & silver plates Why India needs smarter, scarier horror films Ram Gopal Varma’s influence Whether zombies can survive Mumbai local trains It’s funny, nerdy, nostalgic, and full of great cinema stories — the perfect Cyrus Says cocktail.
