Bad & Bollywood

Yashasvi and Karan record the final episode of Bad and Bollywood - Ep 69 (Nice) Listen to the first ten minutes to hear us saying goodbye to what has truly been the only thing thats been constant in a hellish year and a half. Thank you to everyone that's listened and supported us or been on an episode.

Pretentious movie reviews have already made this film iconic so karan and yashasvi revisit this highly "caffeinated" Sooraj Barjatya film with Hrithik delivering a career worst and Abhishek...barely existing 

Yashasvi and Karan are joined by the resident Dhoom expert - Siddharth Merchant - who returns for the sequel that is more boring and less action packed than its predecessor. Follow Bad and Bollywood on Instagram: @badnbollywood and Twitter: @badnbollywood

Yashasvi and Karan watch this Akshay Kumar thriller that both bores and confuses with its nonsensical twists, terrible acting, jaaved jaffery and Akshay Kumars dual citiz- role..we meant role

Yashasvi and Karan end the year with a movie that fittingly encapsulates 2020 - started off fine and then quickly became a never ending nightmare. Follow us on Instagram: @badnbollywood

Yashasvi and Karan do a movie that barely anyone remembers not even the people in it - the Vivek Oberoi drama - Dum. Prep ur earholes for maybe the worst thing that has been said on an episode

Yashasvi and Karan watched fabulous lives of bollywood wives and well...watch yashasvi try to remember all their names as they talk about the most middle of the road reality show yet

Yashasvi and Karan are joined by first time guest Rustom to unpack the often entertaining but definitely overcrowded Abbas Mustan comedy Baadshah Follow us on Instagram @badnbollywood

Yashasvi and Karan watch a tedious turd in mohenjodaro that attempts no historical accuracy, had terrible dialogue and an admin based ending that goes on for too long

Yashasvi and Karan review a film that is Romeo and Juliet but incestuous with gang warfare, Sunny Deol monologues, a race to who's the worst actor in the film and an actress who is definitely not, definitely not Kiara Advani 

Yashasvi and Karan watch another edition of the Balaji Cinematic Universe - a horror film where the most terrifying thing is Tusshar Kapoor and Esha Deol trying to emote. Follow us on instagram: @badnbollywood for episode announcements, memes, reels and more 

What is there to be said about Karzzz? A true landmark in how to remake a film and make an absolute delightful mess of it. Karan and Yashasvi marvel at the Himesh Cinematic Universe and all the nonsense that comes with. Experience the rebirth in your earholes.

Yashasvi and Karan attempt the worst movie yet - a movie that broke Karans family apart, a film that yashasvi had avoided for all these years untill now. Tees Maar Khan is mind numbingly unfunny, has plenty of vicious insider jabs, racism, punching down jokes and terrible performances. 

Indian Matchmaking Star Vyasar joins Yashasvi and Karan to talk about the superhero sequel to the ET ripoff that was Koi Mil Gaya. They discuss random origin stories, Hrithiks look, his double role in the film, vague power syndrome, major plot loopholes and so much more. Follow us on Instagram - @badnbollywood for episode announcements, watch parties and silly memes

Yashasvi and Karan are joined by Deep Fried Neurons to talk about the best case scenario of copying someone else's homework - Kaante. "Heavily inspired" by Taratino's Reservoir Dogs - the film has sepia filter dialed up to a 1000, a plan that makes no sense, and lucky ali..? Listen to this episode to make sense of why despite all that - they still loved this film

Yashasvi and Karan watched a multistarrer that came and went like most Zayed Khan and Riteish Deshmukh films. THis one subverts all the heist tropes badly, avoids making a coherent plot, giving the characters any backstory or dimensions. Pls 2 listen. Follow us on Instagram: @badnbollywood to follow our posts about this dumpster fire

Yashasvi and Karan are joined by Pranav as they watched this kids film that released in 2003 - filled with massive logic holes, a terrible villain, Gulshan Grover gloriously dancing, political commentary??? and so much more

Yashasvi and Karan are joined by Saket to talk about worst movie of the year contender Sadak 2 - a film about guru cults, boomer dad hating social media, plot twists, not enough Sadak and confusing religious commentary.

Yashasvi and Karan watched this She's the Man rip-off that starts off as a story about a girl wanting to play cricket but then gets sidetracked into a love story with the classic yrf tropes of sexism, nostalgic references and a bare bones plot. 

Yashasvi and Karan celebrate 50 episodes with this landmark movie of the 90s that turns out is pretty boring, has logic holes for days and a paper thin plot that only fills 3 hours with the endless songs in it. Check out Bad & Bollywood on instagram - badnbollywood

Sejal from Trash Film Club joins Yashasvi and Karan to talk about this sadboi cult film that is vague with mental health, has cringy dialogue an follows all the tired Imtiaz tropes

Madhavi joins Yashasvi and Karan to talk about this sci-fi gaming film that is one of many SRK disappointments thats filled with plagiarism, racism, sexual jokes in a kids movie, boring fight scenes and a convoluted game that makes it up as it goes along just like this movie

Yashashvi and Karan watch a horror movie that has a spooky book, spoopy chaat, awful friends, a dumb flashback and Sohail trying to emote. 

Yashasvi and Karan have a quick chat with Guru about his portrayal on the show, the actual process of shooting his date with Nadia and dealing with the online harassment that has come his way. We are then joined by Deep Fried Neurons to discuss our thoughts on the show, the bubble in which it exists and our thoughts on some of the characters and the way they were portrayed. Follow us on Instagram : @badnbollywood and let us know what you thought of the episode! 

Yashasvi and Karan go back to the Abbas-Mustan well to a movie that could be a 30 minute episode of tv - with toing comedy, filler characters, lack of evidence and so much Upen Patel - the crew break down why despite Akshaye Khanna's best efforts this film falls flat 

Yashasvi and Karan are joined by the host of the The Overthink Tank podcast host Surbhi Bagga as they talk about their relationship with this movie growing up, harrowing death scenes, lion king ripoffs, top 5 Bollywood moms, bad ID photos and so much more

Yashasvi and Karan watch the most plot-heavy movie yet with Rekha, Akshay "chest hair" Kumar, Urdu overload, illegal wrestling, too many kidnappings and a maa sherawalli-heavy climax

Rayonmag founder Salva Mubarak joins Yashasvi and Karan as they talk about transphobic, racist, sexist and homophobic tropes in the movie and that's just Johnny levers character....

Yashasvia and Karan are joined by a special guest, Pranav as they talk about this non-movie movie where nothing happens, the dad wants an orgy, Shahid wants to sanskaar sex and the women have no autonomy - all in all the classic Sooraj Barjatya film

Yashasvi and Karan celebrate one year and 40 episodes of B&B just the way the way they started it - with a YRF turd. This one has a one sentence plot, terrible accents, blatant racism and oh yeah...one long song that never ends.

Yashasvi and Karan watched the origin story for Kabir Singh that presents a contender for worst protagonist ever, a homoerotic love story ahead of its time and horrible gaslighting. All in all the complete bollywood package

Yashasvi and Karan meet their match (not for marriage) with the worst movie in existence that trudges along for 3 and a half hours with 12 Priyanka's (guiness book remembers) and worst of all - Harman Baweja. Come for the rashee talk but stay for the fetishes, reincarnations and never ending "songs"

Yashasvi and Karan take a minor upgrade with a movie that feels like Mohit Suri trying to relive the glory of his older movies - but with much worde results. With truly shocking dubbing, "Goa" montages that go on forever and a plot that takes forever to get to the important point - Malang isn't the worst film they've encountered but has big "what could have been" energy. 

Yashasvi and Karan watch Imtiaz's reboot that's not a reboot but definitely is. It makes the original look like a masterpiece. Coloured by the woeful acting of its two leads, an overtly long sex story, a vengeful cameraman and a barely coherent plot

Yashasvi and Karan revisit the national award winning, opulent sadfest that hasn't stood the test of time. With some serious overracting, songs galore and some weird commentary on sex workers - this ones not particularly fun to revisit. Atleast we have Madhuri.

Yashasvi and Karan go back and watch the movie that'll make you feel like shit for being a son/daughter with plenty of challi challi energy but not enough head...of the table

Yashasvi and Karan go back to 2010 to watch this "movie" that's more of a parade of fashionable outfits than a coherent storyline. Also you'll have no idea who likes who by the end of this one

Yashasvi and Karan revisit this musical love triangle where a minor inconvenience happens and everything is okay. Featuring gaslighting dads, how to become a billionaire tutorials, a truckload of fetishes and an underwhelming climax

Yashasvi and Karan spent their first episode apart talking about this gaslighty yashraj flick where Ranbir Kapoor plays the worst dude ever who says sorry twice and gets rewarded for it.

Yashasvi and Karan are back with another Abbas-Mustan offering - this one's sanskaari but with Sex dungeons, plot twists galore, murderous husbands, trampoline kills and an Akshaye Khanna acting masterclass.

Yashasvi and Karan took the hit and watched baaghi 3. It is a film that packs ridiculous fighting, shitloads of spray tan, Vigilante messaging and a helicopter attac...

Deep fried neurons helps Yashasvi and Karan process this very uncomfortable film that is steeped in misogyny, workplace harassment and hypocritical characters. Deep Fried also uses his law education to navigate the absurd courtroom scenes. And as always...Karan reveals too much towards the end.

Yashasvi and Karan return to watch the craziest movie yet - from literal gaslighting, to dead mom's, a creepy drunk dad, dotcom references ,Hrithiks descent into madness and of course crocodiles.

Yashasvi and Karan are lured in by a film that starts off as a gritty drama and slowly plummets into the Sunny Deol superhero mode, angry yelling and THAT ONE SONG

Yashasvi and Karan turn up the heat with this sexy time movie that will make your skin crawl. Watch them yell about emraans kissing, Kunal Ganjawalas "process", ashmits acting (or lack thereof) and a whole lot more

Yashasvi and Karan talk about this passable Akshay Kumar/Dharma lovechild that starts as a forgettable comedy and dives deep into pro life messaging and classism

Yashasvi and Karan wax lyrical on Abbas-Mustans freshman film that put them on the map - from bonkers songs, shocking murders and a "negative shade" hero - this could B&B's favorite nostalgic offering

Karan and Yashasvi are join by Deep Fried Neurons' Anuj to bring different perspectives to a serious discussion about Indian comedy and what makes this film special

Yashasvi and Karan celebrate 21 episodes by going back to the one that started it all - this one's got Hrithik in mesh, a kid whose life is ruined, paper thin women characters and feeling yourself up on a hot air balloon. Happy holidays....

Listen at your own peril as Karan doing a podcast on his own about a movie that rehashes and remakes so much that it barely exists as its own movie. Also short jokes are funny. Apparently.

Yashasvi and Karan watched the second installment of Dharma's epic franchise with Tiger doing pointless parkour, Tara Sutaria flip flopping whenever it is convenient to the plot, a vague dignity cup and a baffling coffee shop scene. Disclaimer - this episode was recorded before Karan discovered his love for Tiger Shroff. He would like to withdraw anything negative he said about the greatest actor of our generation.
