“It's time to befriend the devil.”On this episode we return to the world of Bollywood to look at Shah Rukh Khan's action blockbuster PATHAAN (2023). We fire up the wind machine so Asim Burney from the Khandaan podcast can make a suitably dramatic return to the show. We discuss screen bromances, scandalous bikinis, and whether it's not too late for us to get a sculpted six pack. Episode 144.

“Can anyone douse the fire of truth?” We make a return to the world of Bollywood action cinema to review BAAZI (1995), a film that could, most politely be described as, being ‘inspired’ by Die Hard. Not to mention borrowing scenes from half-a-dozen other action films. Our guest on this show is Asim Burney from the Khandaan podcast. We try and pin down just how many films Baazi ripped off, the career of its star Aamir Khan, and an exploding helicopter that may be one of the most embarrassing ever committed to film. Show notes Baazi (1995) Director: Ashutosh Gowariker Cast: Aamir Khan, Mamta Kulkarni, Paresh Rawal Plot: A tough police officer wages a one-man war against terrorists and a corrupt politician who have planned to assassinate a top government official.

This episode we’ll be discussing a country better known for it’s cricketing credentials than it’s footballing fraternity - but could it have been different? We’ll look at the talented Indian national side which almost shook up the global footy world order and consider whether they withdrew from the 1950 World Cup because they were not allowed to play barefoot. And we talk to Asim Burney, Host of Upodcast, movie buff and Bollywood aficionado about a legendary Bollywood singer, known to all Indians. She carried the burden of familyy expectation on her shoulders, survived an attempted poisoning and performed at the Royal Albert Hall. She’s Lata Mangeshkar.
