  • 🎬 Fear of Stairs: Desi Films Decoded! 🎬

    In a universe where logic takes a backseat to flamboyant dance numbers and every staircase can lead to an untimely death, Fear of Stairs takes you on a hilariously unpredictable journey through Indian’s extravagant film landscape. Join our unlikely crew—three clueless outsiders and one jaded insider—as they explore a world where emotions run high, physics are optional, and plot twists are the only certainty.

    Starring:

    • Khilli, The Indian Cinema Guru: Raised in the heart of Indian cinema, this film school graduate dreamed of being a director but became jaded by the industry. Now, they guide the group through Bollywood’s spectacular highs and absurd lows with a blend of skepticism and nostalgia.
    • Nicky, The International Latchkey Kid: With a childhood filled with anime and retro gaming consoles, this cultural chameleon knows everything about global pop culture—except Bollywood. They’re about to find out just how wild the world of Indian cinema can be.
    • Winnie, The Desi Who’s Never Been to India: She's ready to confront Bollywood head-on, even if it makes no sense at all, in order to get closer to her roots.
    • Adam, The Western Movie Buff: He managed an arthouse movie theater and can discuss the continuity of the Fast and Furious franchise at length, but his experience with Indian cinema begins and ends with "RRR," making him the perfect candidate for Bollywood culture shock.

    Together, they dive into epic sagas, outrageous romances, and gravity-defying action scenes. Will these intrepid explorers succumb to Bollywood’s charm, or will they be left scratching their heads in disbelief?
