[@devrajnegi7238]

If Rajesh Khanna and Amitabh Bachchan had a child raised up by Urjita, that is Avinash 😂

[@sanki1404]

Put some Maddy too..

[@zeus3086]

Who is Urjita?

[@darkdreamer4343]

Lol

[@ameetrana777]

Never knew Avinash before and he's the best guest so far on this show(pov). I can watch it again and again

[@sobinbaby3043]

I think this is the first time a guest is speaking more than Cyrus 😂

[@Hem_Himachal]

True. And not bcz he was speaking over cyrus but it was the first time cyrus was interested in listening 🥲 Throughout the show (Thats how good the guest was)

[@sapnaa6576]

Yes. I too noticed that. Avinash is as good as Cyrus while speaking - interesting, sense of humor. It's true that's the reason for their success, interesting personality. Cyrus had to give space. Best podcast I have seen so far. Cricket part was mind blowing.

[@pratikjiwane880]

And entertaining more than Cyrus

[@JamesWasProud]

Its amazing when the guest can match or even come close to matching Cyrus’ energy. Also How did you manage to NOT ask Avinash a single question about his childhood friend Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar

[@simsmarty]

Crazy Marathi energy this guy has

[@jineshudani401]

What I really liked about Avinash is how he remains acknowledging and grateful of the fact that he was privileged enough to be well-connected and had many doors open up for him.. Many celebrities have survivor's bias and simply refuse to accept how luck and privilege were factors for their initial career growth..

[@kulkarnishireesh]

Lately Cyrus has been asking many guests/panelists if they will be interested in coming on show for cricket related discussion. All of them have said yes enthusiastically. That's your cue team IVM. It's about time you start something on cricket and sports in general with Cyrus

[@AJK666007]

Cyrus and cricket is a fun combo. The heads at IVM must make this happen !!!

[@kulkarnishireesh]

@Jeevan M R we are demanding one more podcast hosted by Cyrus about sports and let Abbas be the co-host(to suffer from horrors of sports discussions )

[@trusharusa1]

There are some episodes of Cyrus Says dedicated to just cricket. They are called LANSO.

[@Hem_Himachal]

Avinash can start a podcast of his own if he ever takes a break from photography 📸

[@mohna6264]

By far one of the best episodes of this show...loved the ease with which all three of you interacted not being stuck to questions related to the guest's specialty (=photography?!) and keeping it organic for listeners to get a glimpse of the person behind the celebrity. Adore Cyrus's chalu yet humble attitude (is it his age?), enjoyed AGowarikar's no pretence sharing and Mr 88 trying to pull it together!!! Thanks guys, would like to see many more of these stories :)

[@jay9770]

This episode definitely comes second to the Gajraj Rao episode in the top 10 celebrity podcasts of Cyrus Says so far. Period

[@meenalpatil2840]

Thia is my most favorite episode till date... Please let Avinash sir know that it was a joy to watch him and listen to his stories 😀👍🏻

[@anup256]

For the first time Cyrus is beaten in cricket knowledge. 🤣 One of the best episode after long time

[@manjirig538]

One of the Best interviews on Cyrus says you guys need to bring him back , one episode wasn’t enough

[@victrixishkee]

Did not want this show to end. Became a fan of this show and Avinash today ❤

[@IndianArchivist]

Most hilarious guest episode in a while! 5 stars!

[@Ashish-nd3xj]

One of the most watchable episodes ever ! Avinash is such an entertainer with other things. Good to see him speaking Marathi freely !!

[@jdnesh]

Now this episode came in on auto play and I was mind blown by it. Why? because, Avinash was amazing, he matched energy with all the folks on camera and behind. Cyrus was in a very different groove. Abbas was the younger brother of the group, his transition of getting in and out of the conversation was so smooth to watch. Overall, everyone matched vibes and there was this beautiful synergy. Additionally, seeing a 'Assal Mumbai Marathi' phrases jump in and out while talking was a true delight. Majja Aali baba.

[@supriyajoshi1347]

Best episode ever.... Thanks Cyrus team...and Avinash

[@kawadrogpa1857]

First time in life I wanted to learn marathi to understand those jokes fully, but what a fun episode! Avinash is a revelation, wish I was a great story teller like him

[@devinakirloskar]

😂 which parts? Happy to translate.

[@AdnanKhan-kf2bm]

@@devinakirloskar about the coin story please

[@sushiluttekar1905]

​@@AdnanKhan-kf2bmso the spineer studied and practiced how to out the great Clive Lloyd..he used to keep a coin and practice a lot so that Bowl would fall on the coin and would spin this missing Clive's bat .... But when westindies arrived ...Clive would stand where the bowler had imagined the coin mark..so now spinner can't bowl the delivery as it would be straight fulltouse and has to bowl differently.. finally Clive scored 242 ( in old time that was hell lot of score imagine ground so big compared to today's IPl Kitty grounds and offcourse the bowlers without proper gear )

[@karanpoonja]

Trivia: Salman khan who rarely gave interviews in 90s, gave one to Bhavna somayya of 'G' and he mentioned Avinash's name one among people he was really close to.

[@lazy_pandaa]

This definitely warrants a second episode with Avinash.

[@geeteshiyer]

What a smashing episode . A guest that matches Cyrus’s wit, sense of humor and volume 😂❤

[@aieshashekhar]

This episode is gold after Suresh Menon, Rahul Bose. Prince, Gajraj Rao, Sahukar and Jose Covaco episodes. Wanna see Shenaaz Treasurywala next

[@BipinPuthran]

This is the most hilarious and genuine podcast I have ever come across in my entire life. Kudos to Avinash and Cyrus with team.

[@nimbumirchi55]

I'm in love with his energy and attitude. Beats Cyrus this time!!! Didn't realize when I reached the end of the video. Loved every bit of it. Thanks for inviting him.

[@karanpatel7235]

No wonder why everybody likes Avinash. Such a Hillariois man 😅 Too Good. He can keep the spirits high for hrsss

[@ritesh1447]

Broacha is hilarious bro. I regret not discovering his podcast earlier. He has so many gems. This particular podcast is one them. I am dying laughing. He is just unbelievable. Please keep on doing this. Love it.

[@kishoremali5547]

This randomly started playing after another video..and i was like..who is this...lets just flip it and go to next vid. But i just held on and and wanted this never to get over. What a man...mr.gowariker. Hats off. He could easily become a best motivational speaker.

[@utkarshyadav2098]

Avinash has that street smart, on spot humour! Loved the conversation!!! The hour went by so quickly ❤ Please get him back if possible!

[@musiccurator7670]

Super Duper Fun Episode.....We need Avinash back someday for round 2 of abbreviated names 😂😂

[@ramanbadekar]

खूपच छान मुलाखत. मध्ये मध्ये जे काही spontaneous मराठी बोललात ते झकास होतं 👏👏👏 Cyrus , Avinash and Abbas...the chat was so chill and casual..I have been living in Australia for the past 18 years and so do my best friends from India..It felt like the banter and chat I have with my friends... Felt bloody good 👌👌😃😃😃

[@ronaktanwar9774]

Wow man what a brilliant episode my mood was off but this episode just made my day just feel this episode never end Cyrus is so damn amazing man

[@sagarnikam2067]

This is such an amazing episode. 👏🏼👏🏼

[@rishabhjain563]

Too good yaar....such competitive feeling at the age of 50s fighting like teens...had a laugh riot🫰

[@ShaileshDsz]

43:41 cyrus 😂😂. One of the best shows so far as AG has a lot of positive energy.

[@devinakirloskar]

Superb. Avinash can not only keep up with Cyrus but also give back and how! Hilarious 😂😂😂.

[@yatinmalvankar3543]

By far my most favourite episode. Finally someone matched cyrus’s energy 🤓

[@sreejithmenonumd]

You should bring Avinash back!! Ask about his growing up with Sachin as well!! Had lot of fun!!

[@divyeshvijayakar1162]

I cannot beleive the amazing energy in this episode! Bota ghaatli! And the bat questions! Crazy! Crazy! Fun one.

[@kishan-4612]

38:45 one of the best segments in Cyrus podcast

[@kalpeshjadhav7449]

One of the best episode🎉🎉🎉

[@bombaytalkies6836]

Boss listening to ur podcast is like sitting with my friends! Cyrus it’s been two decades far from Mumbai, sincerely love ur energy!

[@cobaltblue4398]

Never watched other episodes. But became a fan of this episode!! Never knew this much about Avinash, like he said, photographer brother of Ashutosh. But really loved to know more about him and this fun banter was amazing!! Loved “what is this bat obsession” 😂😂😂😂

[@myqueries137]

What an episode!! What a beautiful episode!! This guy is seriously without an ego.

[@shabbs1234]

Simply loved the Banter ...Avinash is second guy I think ..who has given Cy below the belts blows haste haste.....what a amazing show ...love you guys

[@uditverma]

I have never laughed so hard during a CS podcast ever! Love this! Huge fan of Cyrus and Avinash 👏🏼

[@supriyajoshi1347]

Awesome..video....omg kaaaamaaaal episode....Cyrus khup khup dhanyawaddd....continuing with the marathi streak...Please invite madhu sapre... Milind soman.....

[@madhusudankinikar2211]

Best Episode!! Cyrus rocks

[@poocha9]

The past few guests have been great fun to listen to ( I drive to work, so I am one of the few audio listeners left). According to Cyrus, there are only 2 or 3 of them, and I am in that demography. Keep up the excellent work. Hope to listen to Arshad Warsi soon since his Asur 2 is killing it( no pun intended)

[@Khana_yatra_lens]

Too Hilarious 😂😂 can't believe 30 min gone so fast..... Avinash ko vapas Lao part 2... Ppl like him full of humour

[@meghashah6675]

Best episode till dat. Kudos to this Avinash guy...first time who could compete give full answers with cyrus interrupting....too good...this guy can host his own podcast and that would be fabulous...

[@srijanbasu8951]

Best guest so far.... hands down !!!!!!!!

[@vrushalianil3852]

Time well spent! When the guest matches to Cyrus’ energy the episode goes to another level of entertainment.

[@nirajsawant508]

I love Cyrus and his sense of timing is impeccable.....Avinash has a superb sense of humour.....best podcast

[@am_ac]

The best interview of the year to date.. Absolutely loved it! 👍🏻 It was 🔥🔥🔥.. Cheers guy.. ✌🏻

[@WHYTGOLD]

Very well paced interview..if only 1980 kids can oversee where the conversations was leasing to. Even before wwe cards came. We all knew our cricket back of our fingers. That was icebreaker for many. Since bangalore we were told and even sunny quoted his brother in law best batsman ever. I.e gundappa vishwanath. Similarly loads of chennai fans are lara and west indies fan. So in nutshell cyrus to relive and ask those questions and have a great banter was fantastic. Just for my 1980s kid. And following 4pm show in mtv, ssmusic, channel v, bournvita quiz, and many more...was a milestones in itself. Thanks for being you. Made i thorough awestruck watching and listening..

[@anahitamodi6770]

Cyrus Is a LEGEND.. The podcasts are incredible .He brings out the madness in the most sober of guests..Delightful.

[@sandynathan1350]

EPIC episode!!! We need more of Avinash and Cyrus :)))

[@prasadjoglekar2850]

The best episode ever. Cyrus, seeing you doing a podcast with Mr Gawaskar or Mr. Bacchan would be an absolute riot.. Fingers crossed to that..

[@ruzansbow3755]

This was such a wonderful podcast. Man he's a great fellow, Avinash!

[@Creeyetive]

Wow Avinash was a superb guest for Cyrus...needs to comeback... cricket trivia was the best🎉🎉

[@pranav250790]

The energetic podcast! If you want Cyrus to sit there without rushing to go back home... get the guests of interest similar to him. You get podcast full of madness. 😂😂😂 Roger Binny Question was nail in the coffin at the end. Cyrus had it on his ego with 242 from Mr. Gowarikar. 😅 But Cyrus is Cyrus 🤣

[@arshanlakdawalla]

What a ride! This episode is hilarious over bounds. Can we please have Mr. Gowariker as a regular on the podcast

[@cranckcharlie31]

43:47 GOLD comedic genius from CY

[@abhadubey9502]

Unbelievably fun episode! What great stories to hear from Avinash. Always been a fan of Avinash's work. Thanks for bringing him onto the podcast. Please do 2 hrs podcast, 1hour is not enough

[@deniselewis6127]

Get Avinash back for another one...I could listen to him all day!

[@karthikshetty836]

He is such a delight to listen to. Get him again for a cricket podcast please 🎉

[@karanpatel7235]

If Salman Khan likes you.. Your Life is Set.. 😅 this line gives GOOSEBUMPS. hes actually a KING in real life too. no insecurity, Supreme Authority and REAL Power 💪

[@taransingh8307]

Love his energy !! He needs to come more

[@ninadkharkar2720]

Brilliant podcast. Cancelled my meeting and watched the whole episode in one go. Totally worth it.

[@anand3445]

Want to have another round with Avinash. Most enjoyable episode .

[@ssiddarth]

One of the most enjoyable episodes, Avinash was too good. BTW, y'all could think about starting a weekly or matchday cricket segment, Cyrus along with any of the guests who are interested in the game would be a delightful watch.

[@eqtathadani5453]

I'm in the middle of the video, laughing like crazy, to which my younger brother looks at me in shock, didi kya hua... I don't remember the last time i laughed... Thank you for this video

[@teemabenadikar5144]

Watched it 3 times already 😊...very entertaining episode 👏

[@sohailkhan501]

Loved the Sridevi moment 🎥 … cinema genius for a reason!

[@SanketKambli]

[@debashreetudu1]

I have watched this podcast atleast 5 times. I love it ❤

[@siddhidhuri8424]

[@kaulyamini]

One of the bestest episodes I've seen in a long, long time. Now I have two top favorites - Gajraj Ji and Avinash ji.

[@nakulinterface]

Super episode. The best in a while. Avinash needs to feature on the next episode of LANSO (yes pls start LANSO again!)

[@TechTaalTadka]

This is the only episode I rewatched after listening to just the audio. What a riot!

[@shivanijoshi11]

[@user-tc1ke8zp7f]

Amazing episode, not laughed so much in a long time. Respect to both

[@tomfinallyatejerry]

I don't know what it is about Avinash that keeps bringing me back to this session. Such a delightful, insightful conversation.

[@aniruddhashinde2640]

Such a great episode. What a guy! Should come back again!

[@SDYande]

Cyrus, it was heartening to find a fellow admirer of Gavaskar’s greatness vis-a-vis “Saaachin”😊

[@chandrasekharmalkan5989]

Handsdown the best episode till date❤

[@omvichare1603]

AVINASH SIR ZABARDAST PERSONALITY FULL OF ENERGY CYRUS CHI FULL ON GHEUN TAKLI 😂😂😂

[@AnK11Morrison]

I have for the first time seen Cyrus getting schooled. His exasperation at being schooled is beyond beautiful!

[@SanketKambli]

as a father. i can see by the guest on the show. how much a father’s can help a child find and make his career/life.

[@DoomSlayerTheGamer12.]

What an amazing show…enjoyed it throughly…still wanting for more…brilliant ❤

[@rohiticku]

Fantastic episode.

[@anishmehra9012]

BC.. Had no clue about the guest no offense sir but Damn Easily the funniest podcast ever.. Felt like a gang of friends chilling at a pub watching cricket with banter galore

[@MegaChengappa]

I did not know Avinash before this show…he is a character who can keep the show lively and completely engaged with his well timed dialogues, body language and narration from his past…👌

[@ratnamalamokashi7142]

Best best best so far ! ❤ Bring him back again please.

[@nichen6966]

Such a Marvelous interview. Two fun and lovely people.

[@umg4147]
