Welcome to Khandaan: A Bollywood Podcast where this week we’re discussing CITADEL: HONEY BUNNY on Amazon Prime.
Directed by Raj and DK, Honey Bunny stars Samantha Ruth Prabhu and Varun Dhawan along with Kay Kay, Simran and Saqib Saleem. We talk about what this show does better than the original and what really stood out to us.
We also discuss DO PATTI on Netflix. Produced by & starring Kriti Sanon and co-produced & written by Kanika Dhillon, this thriller is rather less than thrilling. Co-starring a self conscious Kajol, this movie is mostly a vehicle for Kriti and nothing more.

Welcome to Khandaan: A Bollywood Podcast where this week we’re discussing JOSH (2000).
This was a request from our friend, Patreon, and editor extraordinaire, Yamini. And we’re trying very hard not to judge her for it.
This Mansoor Khan directorial feels a lot older than it is and stars Shahrukh Khan and Aishwarya Rai as twins with a dark Portuguese past in 1980s Goa. There’s also Chandrachur Singh, Priya Gill and Sharad Kapoor in key roles.

Welcome to Khandaan: A Bollywood Podcast where this week we’re discussing DIL TERA AASHIQ from 1993.
Directed by Lawrence D’Souza, this movie stars Madhuri Dixit, Salman Khan, Kader Khan, Anupam Kher, and a host of character actors you haven’t seen in decades. A remake of a play, this movie should have been effervescent good fun with two actors who were hitting the zeitgeist in spectacular fashion. Instead… listen to the episode to hear our views.

Welcome to Khandaan: A Bollywood Podcast where the movie of the week is Vasan Bala’s JIGRA.

Our main review is Jigra. We cover the film, its reception and the social media controversy. We have thoughts about Alia Bhatt’s performance as well as that of the supporting cast.

Welcome to Khandaan: A Bollywood Podcast where this week we’re discussing 1995’s BAAZI.
Directed by Ashutosh Gowarikar and starring Aamir Khan and Mamta Kulkarni, Baazi is a tribute to the Hollywood thrillers of the 1980s. We talk about the way Aamir’s character is depicted in this film, which is completely different from most cop characters in Bollywood. The songs by Anu Malik haven’t really survived the decade but are still quite catchy. Listen to the episode to find out why this is Asim’s favorite Aamir film.

Welcome to Khandaan: A Bollywood Podcast where this week we’re discussing KICK (2014).
But first we discuss a few recent film releases, including Netflix’s SECTOR 36 with Vikrant Massey and Deepak Dobriyal, the disappointing action film YUDHRA with Siddhant Chaturvedi, and re-release of Bollywood classics old and new.
But our main review is Salman Khan's blockbuster 'Kick', costarring Jaqueline Fernandez, Randeep Hooda and Nawazuddin Siddiqui. It leads to a wide ranging discussion about Salman’s star power, where he’s headed and what his legacy is likely to be.
