Ep 301- Khandaan at 300: Love, Burnout and Streaming Chaos

Description

⁠Patreon Exclusive:⁠ We recorded a bonus video episode where we debate AI-generated “movies,” tech hype vs reality, and launch a new idea for a recurring Rewatchables series. Join us on Patreon to watch and weigh in. In this milestone 300th episode, Asim, Amrita, and Sujoy take stock of Khandaan’s journey — from lockdown comfort-listening to surviving pandemics, political chaos, and some truly questionable movie choices (yes, Kyun Ki was #300). We talk honestly about where Bollywood is right now: the lack of joy, the fatigue around current releases, and whether we still want to watch everything. Along the way, we respond to listener mail about Sanjay Leela Bhansali, debate art vs aesthetics, unpack Kohrra Season 2, react to O Romeo, and review The Bluff starring Priyanka Chopra — plus a wider conversation about her Hollywood trajectory and the “action star” box. It’s reflective, a little ranty, occasionally bleak, but ultimately grateful — because 300 episodes later, we’re still here, still arguing, and still obsessed with desi cinema.
