Welcome to a special episode of Khandaan: A Bollywood Podcast with guest host Rahul Desai. We’re discussing one of Rahul’s comfort watches, DARR (1993). Directed by Yash Chopra and starring Sunny Deol, Juhi Chawla, and Shahrukh Khan in key roles, this movie is an important milestone in Bollywood history.

Next issue is about to drop... Welcome to Khandaan: A Bollywood Podcast where we're joined by our friend Get_Filmy to discuss a variety of things but most importantly JAWAN. We begin by discussing SCAM 2003: THE TELGI STORY on Sony Liv. A well-received follow up to SCAM 1992 on the same service, this follows the intricacies of a small man who dreams big in an India where all kinds of things are possible. That is also the main theme of BAMBAI MERI JAAN on Amazon Prime, which chronicles the rise of Dawood Ibrahim in a crime-ridden Bombay of the 60s, 70s, and 80s. Featuring bravura performances by the main cast and a stylish, slick directing style, this Excel production really reels you in. We also discuss the trailer for THE GREAT INDIAN FAMILY, starring Vicky Kaushal and Manushi Chillar with an interesting premise. Will this work at the Indian box office? And last, of course, we discuss Jawan, which shows no signs of stopping its rampage. Get_Filmy tells us off for our lack of appreciation and we discuss the fallout over the past few weeks.
