This week on Khandaan: A Bollywood Podcast, we’re tackling two of the most talked-about (and trolled) recent releases — War 2 and Coolie.
It’s safe to say neither film blew us away, but that doesn’t mean we didn’t have plenty to say. From Hrithik Roshan’s sleepwalking Kabir to NTR Jr. stuck in the wrong movie, from Shruti Haasan’s mannequin-level characterisation to Aamir Khan’s husky-filled cameo, this episode covers it all.

Starring Sunny Deol, Madhuri Dixit, Jackie Shroff, Sangeeta Bijlani, Naseeruddin Shah, Sonam, Amrish Puri and Anupam Kher among others, Tridev is still famous for its son...
