We’re a Brand!

Did this really happen? 🚀 We never expected our hobby to become a “brand” but here we are. Netflix, Netflix India, Amazon Prime Video and Prime Movies have approved The Jeff & Ishan Show as a paid partner for Instagram branded content.

We’re not entirely sure what this means yet but we’re grateful they’ve noticed the fun we share with all of you. After 18 months of creating and learning, we’re amazed to feel their support.

Most of all, thank you to everyone who keeps coming back. Time to grab our smartphone and mics and keep creating magic. 🎥✨

“Tune in for a Big Time” with 40,000 Subscribers

Classic Americana meets Indian cinema mash-up as we extend our deepest thanks to our 40,000+ Youtube subscribers in India, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Nepal, the US, Kazakhstan, the UK, and welcoming Germany, for your support.

We had fun making this celebration video that’s a one-of-kind mix of my roots to remember my mom who passed away this year and who grew up listening to the Grand Ole Opry country music radio/TV show from childhood onward, and our love of Indian cinema including honoring Asha Bhosle who also passed away this year.

The music is a 19th century folk song about a train, “Wabash Cannonball,” which has been recorded by many singers over the years with slightly changing lyrics, so we decided we could change them, too. The banjo music is from an old 78rpm record from the 1940s performed by The Folkcraft Country Dance Orchestra; hence, we tried to modify our vocal tracks in post-production to match the old sound.

We remain heartened by cinema’s power to cross borders and to unite during these divisive times around the globe. We’re glad you’re still having fun watching us have fun.

The Jeff & Ishan Show #7 – Maareesan

We’re back in action after summer break! Watch our review of Maareesan (which means Imposter Demon, kind of), a 2025 Tamil-language thriller starring Fahadh Faasil and Vadivelu, written by V. Krishna Moorthy and directed by Sudheesh Sankar, streaming now on Netflix.

“It’s very unpredictable. One minute you think this is a heartwarming story about Dhaya and this old man with dementia; you think you’re watching Rain Man, then it turns into Zodiac and you’re soon wondering which of these three men is the real villain . . . I thought it was going to be,old guy who changes the heart of a thief. And then suddenly it takes on a darker tone.”
