In Episode 9 of The BoM Podcast, we dive into Aryan Khan’s highly anticipated Netflix directorial debut, The Ba***ds of Bollywood**, and briefly share our thoughts on this week’s release, Jolly LLB 3.

⚖️ First up, Jolly LLB 3. With Akshay Kumar and Arshad Warsi returning to the courtroom alongside Saurabh Shukla, Huma Qureshi, and Amrita Rao, does the film still capture the charm and social commentary that made the franchise a hit?

🎬 Then we shift focus to The Ba***ds of Bollywood. Starring Bobby Deol, Laksh, Raghav Juyal, Anya Singh, and Saher Bamba, the show also features a long list of cameos from Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, Aamir Khan, Emraan Hashmi, and many more. We break down the story, performances, Aryan Khan’s vision as a director, and whether this Netflix debut lives up to its massive hype.

Join us as we give our honest take on two very different Bollywood projects — one continuing a beloved courtroom franchise, and the other attempting to redefine Bollywood storytelling for a new generation.

In this episode of The BoM Podcast, we revisit one of Bollywood’s most iconic family dramas, Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham, alongside our special guest and close friend Raj Dhamal, a fellow cinephile who handpicked this film for our revisit.

We explore what K3G meant to audiences when it released in 2001 — and how its impact differed for NRIs like Aishan, who grew up connecting to Indian culture through films abroad, versus Indians raised in India like Bhumi and Raj, who experienced its melodrama and grandeur first-hand.

From Karan Johar’s lavish sets, unforgettable music, and iconic performances by Amitabh Bachchan, Jaya Bachchan, Shah Rukh Khan, Kajol, Hrithik Roshan, and Kareena Kapoor (as the unforgettable Poo), to the film’s emotional core — “It’s all about loving your parents” — we break down whether the movie still holds up two decades later.

✨ Join us as we debate the legacy of K3G, the memes, the nostalgia, and whether it deserves its cult-classic status in today’s Bollywood landscape.

In Episode 7 of The BoM Podcast, we review two of Bollywood’s latest releases – Param Sundari and Baaghi 4.

✨ First up, Param Sundari starring Siddharth Malhotra and Janhvi Kapoor. While it set out to be a fresh rom-com, the film feels like a recycled mix of Chennai Express, 2 States, and even DDLJ—without the same magic.

🔥 Then, we move to Baaghi 4 – the dreaded fourth installment of an already stretched franchise. With Tiger Shroff’s action, Sanjay Dutt as the villain, Harnaaz Kaur Sandhu’s debut, and Sonam Bajwa & Shreyas Talpade in wasted roles, the film had potential but ended up as another forgettable sequel.

Join us as we break down what went wrong, how Bollywood rom-coms and franchises keep repeating old formulas, and what needs to change.

In this episode of The BoM Podcast, we dive into one of Bollywood’s biggest releases of the year – War 2. We break down:

• Hrithik Roshan’s undeniable star power and whether he can still carry the spy franchise on his shoulders 💥
• NTR Jr.’s highly anticipated Hindi debut and how his pan-Indian appeal reshapes the film’s dynamic 🌍
• Kiara Advani’s role – was it impactful or just another thankless Bollywood heroine part? 🤔
• The film’s underwhelming box office run and what it could mean for the future (or downfall) of YRF’s ambitious Spy Universe 🎬
• And of course, the music – did it live up to the hype or fall flat compared to the adrenaline-packed action? 🎶

Join us as we debate whether War 2 marks a turning point for Bollywood’s biggest franchise or a sign that audiences are ready to move on.

In Episode 5 of The BoM Podcast, we’re joined by Bhumi’s sister to dive into Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na (2008) — Imran Khan’s charming debut and Genelia D’Souza’s bubbly, unforgettable performance. We unpack their undeniable chemistry, A.R. Rahman’s magical soundtrack, and the colorful cast of supporting characters and cameos that made this film a youth classic.

From relatable college friendships to fairy-tale romance, the movie strikes the perfect balance between realism and escapism — and we explore how it resonated differently with us as 7-, 12-, and 13-year-olds back in 2008.

🎬 Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na isn’t just a rom-com, it’s a generational time capsule.

In this episode of The BoM Podcast, we dive into the biggest debut in Hindi cinema history — Saiyaara, starring Ahaan Pandey and Aneet Padda. We break down what made this film such a massive box office success, from the fresh performances to the music, direction, and the buzz around two newcomers making a splash in a big way. We explore how this film marks a refreshing shift in Bollywood — from its original music (no remakes here!) to Mohit Suri’s signature storytelling style that revives the lost art of the tragic love story.

We also talk about the pressure of debuting in the age of social media, how this film compares to other first-time hits, and whether Saiyaara lives up to the hype or rides on it.

Is this the future of Bollywood? Or just a lucky start?

🎧 Press play for our honest thoughts, passionate takes, and some major 2000s romance nostalgia.

In Episode 3 of The BoM Podcast – A Bollywood Podcast, we dive into one of the most visually and musically groundbreaking films of the 90s—Taal (1999).

Directed by Subhash Ghai, Taal wasn’t just a love story. It was a full-blown cinematic experience that shaped the future of Bollywood choreography, redefined how dance was filmed, and gave us one of A.R. Rahman's most iconic soundtracks.

🎙️ In this episode, we talk about:

• How Taal inspired an entire generation of dancers and choreographers
• The global, almost spiritual impact of A.R. Rahman’s music
• Aishwarya Rai’s unmatched screen presence and how this film elevated her stardom
• The film’s influence on how music and movement were integrated in Bollywood stories
• And of course... our Mast Meter rating 🎧

Whether you grew up dancing to Taal Se Taal Mila or still can’t get over Ishq Bina, this episode is pure nostalgia with a beat.
