Asim, Amrita, and Sujoy dive into the *best remakes in Bollywood history, discussing why films like **Baazigar, Dev D, Agneepath, and Parineeta* succeed where so many others fail. From Shah Rukh Khan’s iconic anti-hero debut to Hrithik Roshan’s most intense performance, we break down how these remakes adapted their originals and made them unforgettable. Expect nostalgia, film nerdery, and a few controversial honourable mentions along the way. --- 🎧 *Listen to Khandaan* Spotify Apple Podcasts Google Podcasts --- 🔗 *Follow Khandaan* YouTube: [https://www.youtube.com/@KhandaanPodcast](https://www.youtube.com/@KhandaanPodcast) Instagram: [https://www.instagram.com/khandaanpodcast](https://www.instagram.com/khandaanpodcast) X (Twitter): [https://twitter.com/khandaanpodcast](https://twitter.com/khandaanpodcast) Merch: [https://khandaanpodcast.com](https://khandaanpodcast.com) --- 👍 *Like, subscribe, and hit the bell so you never miss an episode.* --- © Khandaan: A Bollywood Podcast #BollywoodPodcast #KhandaanPodcast #BollywoodRemakes #SRK #HrithikRoshan #VidyaBalan #DevD #Agneepath #Baazigar #HindiCinema

There's a particular kind of conversation that happens among friends who grew up with Hindi films, one that mixes deep nostalgia with sharp critique, and that's exactly the vibe you'll find on Khandaan-A Bollywood Podcast. Each episode feels like pulling up a chair with three knowledgeable millennials who don't just rehash plots but dig into the cultural impact, the behind-the-scenes stories, and the sheer entertainment value of the movies that defined an era. A major focus is a nostalgic, film-by-film deep dive into the colossal careers of the three Khans-Aamir, Salman, and Shahrukh-exploring what makes each of these global superstars tick and why their work remains so compelling. But this podcast isn't only about looking back. On alternate weeks, the hosts switch gears to bring you into the present, breaking down current Bollywood news, buzzy new releases on streaming platforms, and interesting content across English and other Indian languages. It’s this blend of thorough retrospective analysis and up-to-the-minute film journalism that gives the show its unique rhythm. Whether they're debating the merits of a 90s classic or dissecting a modern box office trend, the discussion is always informed by an encyclopedic knowledge of the industry, delivered with genuine passion and a lot of warmth. For anyone who thinks about Bollywood beyond the screen, this is the essential weekly listen.
