Support Khandaan Podcast on Patreon from 1$.This week's bonus episode is our reviews of Monkey Man and The Goat Life! Welcome to Khandaan: A Bollywood Podcast where we’re travelling back to 2008 to discuss GHAJINI.  Directed by AR Murugadoss, this Aamir Khan starrer was the original juggernaut that sent Bollywood into a tailspin about the money it was minting. It established the 100 crore club and forever changed the way we talk about the movies in Hindi cinema.  Co-starring Asin and Jiah Khan, this was the remake of a very successful Tamil movie and it also set the stage for the “southification” of Hindi action movies for the next decade. Given its impact, how does it hold up?

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.
