This week on ‘Has It Aged Well?’ we’re discussing one of the most iconic films of Hindi cinema - 1975’s ‘Deewar’ directed by Yash Chopra, written by Salim-Javed and starring Amitabh Bachchan, Shashi Kapoor, Nirupa Roy, Neetu Kapoor and Parveen Babi. Joining Abbas and Urjita is fellow podcaster Snayhil Aneja. Topics discussed include: Big B’s ‘angry young man’ persona and why it worked, the legacy of Deewar and how today’s filmmakers still borrow from it, the fantastic dialogue-bazi, and a lot more.
