Baadshah | Has It Aged Well? Ft. Dhruv Deshpande

Описание: Put on your chipkali shoes, grab a walnut and make sure your owl eyes are in place because this week we're talking about the mad Shahrukh Khan comic caper from 1999 Baadshah. Joining Urjita and Abbas for the episode is (not Mastaan) screenwriter Dhruv Deshpande. Topics discussed include: The comedic actors of the 90s and why Bollywood ran out of them, is this movie a spoof?, why this film works despite being "inspired" by half a dozen Hollywood films, The SRK-Johnny Lever chemistry, Twinkle Khanna's weird hairstyle choices, the iconic comedic set pieces of the film. Gayatri Bachchan's real-life inspiration(?), Amrish Puri being Amrish Puri and a lot lot more.
