Episode 2 - Tashan (2008)

Send a text

Good luck, endings, and Tashan!" This week on The BoM Podcast, we’re heading back to 2008 to revisit one of the most polarizing films in Yash Raj history. Despite an ambitious, top-tier star cast featuring Akshay Kumar, Saif Ali Khan, Kareena Kapoor, and Anil Kapoor, this "style-over-substance" experiment famously crashed at the box office.

We’re diving deep into the neon-soaked chaos with two very different perspectives:

• The Newbie: One of us is witnessing the "Size Zero" phenomenon and the "Dil Dance Maare" madness for the very first time in 2026.
• The Veteran: The other is revisiting the film years later to see if the "Ishtyle" actually holds up or if it’s better left in the past.

Join us as we break down the iconic Vishal-Shekhar soundtrack, the high-fashion aesthetics, and why a movie with this much star power failed to find its audience.
