What do you get when you cross a hip hairstylist with a banned Mexican cartoon character? Sapna Bhavnani as Speedy Gonsalez. The Speedy Gonsalez Show is the hairstylist's answer to boring music-based reality TV. Here, she gets artists from the indie music scene to take on disguises for a riot in front of the camera. Each episode is about 5 minutes long and is uploaded on the group by the same name on Facebook at 9.09 pm every Monday.


The first episode of the show was uploaded a week ago, and has Suman Sridhar (from Sridhar/Thayil) as Ms Sassy and her guitarist Arijit Datta as Blind Lemon Govardhan. The 4.5 minute video sees Bhavnani host the show as Ms Sassy, and Blind Lemon Govardhan perform not just the song but their characters as well.

The second episode has Ankur Tewari (from Ankur Tewari and the Ghalat Family) playing a French character who joins Gonsalez in drooling over women. "The idea is to show our talented musicians from the independent music scene, in a different avtaar. They can leave the serious performances for stage. With Gonsalez, they're just having a good time," says Bhavnani, who pulls off a brilliant drunk Mexican woman chaser.
