trailblazer in the world of audio cinema. Shares Mantra (Actor, Director-
Bhaskar Bose, Founder- MnM Talkies), “Bhaskar Bose has set a Benchmark in the
Indian Podcast world. And it's only been possible because of the faith Spotify
has shown towards it. They helped me create it, nurture it every single day. It
makes me very happy and proud that the show and its characters have made a
place in audiences’ hearts and I am truly humbled by the love it has received!
Also #Bhaskarians, keep showering love and support. All I want to say is
Odhbhut Kotha.” Bhaskar Bose was one of the first three shows, and the only
