Be afraid, be very afraid. But also have a few laughs along the way, because this week on 'Has It Aged Well?' we're covering our first all out horror film - Ram Gopal Varma's 2003 cult hit 'Bhoot'. Our guest is comedian, writer, (not a) youtuber, and all round fun guy Rohan Joshi. Topics discussed include: How RGV made a Mumbai flat look scary, our histories with horror cinema and the scary stories we grew up listening to (teen mundi wali aurat FTW), Urmila Matondkar's brilliant portrayal of a possessed woman, the boost RGV gave to Indian horror films, Nana Patekar's very non-Nana performance, the fantastic use of sound in the film, the urban legend of a person who died (or not) while watching this film at a cinema in Delhi, and a lot more.
