    Support Khandaan Podcast on Patreon from 1$.This week's bonus episode is our reviews of Monkey Man and The Goat Life! Welcome to Khandaan: A Bollywood Podcast where we’re travelling back to 2008 to discuss GHAJINI. Directed by AR Murugadoss, this Aamir Khan starrer was the original juggernaut that sent Bollywood into a tailspin about the money it was minting. It established the 100 crore club and forever changed the way we talk about the movies in Hindi cinema. Co-starring Asin and Jiah Khan, this was the remake of a very successful Tamil movie and it also set the stage for the “southification” of Hindi action movies for the next decade. Given its impact, how does it hold up? Join Asim, Amrita, and Sujoy to get the lowdown.

Welcome to Khandaan: A Bollywood Podcast where this week we dive head first into nostalgia with RAJA HINDUSTANI (1996) — and immediately regret it. Directed by Dharmesh Darshan, this loose remake of Jab Jab Phool Khile (1965) stars Aamir Khan, Karisma Kapoor and what we now recognise as regulars in the Darshan Bros universe, each playing a character that gets worse with every passing minute. Join us as we exorcise our trauma.

Welcome to Khandaan: A Bollywood Podcast which is gearing up for its 200th episode! We talk about the Khandaan Bracket that we're running on Twitter and what went into its making. The winner will feature on episode 199. We also discussed the Bollywood documentary released by friend of the podcast Haroon Rashid, " Can Bollywood Survive?", as well as his interview with a post Gadar 2 Sunny Deol that continues to make waves. We round things off with a discussion of Raj and DK's GUNS AND GULAABS starring Dulquer Salmaan, Gulshan Devaiah, Rajkumar Rao, Adarsh Gourav, and others before launching into our main review: 1993's PARAMPARA. Directed by Yash Chopra, this was Saif Ali Khan's debut film and it took us to many unexpected, half-remembered places. Starring Sunil Dutt, Vinod Khanna, Aamir Khan, Saif Ali Khan, Neelam, Raveena Tandon, Ashwini Bhave, Ramya Krishnan, and many others, this is the kind of Hindi movie that doesn't really get made any more. And maybe that's a good thing. Show Notes: 6.00 Can Bollywood Survive? Asim was a guest on the BBC's Asian Network.

    Support this podcast and get ad-free episodes and bonus episodes by becoming a paid member at Patreon.com/KhandaanPodcast! Welcome to Khandaan: A Bollywood Podcast where today's Khan movie is DIL DHADAKNE DO (2015). This Zoya Akhtar directorial was much reviled when it came out for its upper class aesthetic but we think it's become something of a modern classic in the years since its release. Starring Aamir Khan (as the narrator, Pluto), Priyanka Chopra, Ranveer Singh, Anil Kapoor, Shefali Shah, Farhan Akhtar, Rahul Bose, Vikrant Massey and a very talented supporting cast as expected from an Excel production, DDD is both technically brilliant and effectively entertaining. Join us as we discuss all the ways in which this movie made us happy. We also announce our first Khandaan London meet up! Sujoy and Asim will be watching Maula Jatt at the O2 Arena- Cineworld 1300 show on Saturday the 15th of October.If you want to join us for the screening and have a drink after, mark the date and let us know!

    Ep 145- Laal Singh Chaddha
    Aug 17 2022
    Welcome back to Khandaan: A Bollywood Podcast and our review of LAAL SINGH CHADDHA!Directed by Advait Chandan and adapted from FORREST GUMP (1994) by Atul Kulkarni, Laal Singh Chaddha has been in the eye of the storm since we first saw a teaser pre-pandemic, for reasons good as well as terrible. Starring Aamir Khan as the titular character and costarring Kareena Kapoor as his one true love while Mona Singh plays his mother, Laal Singh Chaddha seems like a return to normal filmmaking after a long time. All three hosts saw this movie in the theater and were delighted to have a proper discussion again. Join us as we navigate some unexpected highs and lows.
