S1 Ep13: Prem Ratan Dhan Payo

Author: TiC Productions November 18, 2015 Duration: 54:21

1) Why Prem Ratan Dhan Payo didn't recapture the magic of 90's Bollywood, and how the industry has evolved to reward short term box office results over longevity or timelessness.

2) Trailer analysis of Dilwale, Bajirao Mastani, Hate Story 3, X and Tamasha.

3) Why Priyanka Chopra's success on Quantico should be celebrated not put down, as we ask the question: why does PC get so much more hate and backlash for this show than Anil Kapoor did for 24?
