Welcome to Khandaan: A Bollywood Podcast where this week we’re taking a new look at an old favorite as part of our 80s Dhamaaka series: 1988’s TEZAAB. Directed by N. Chandra, this Anil Kapoor - Madhuri Dixit starrer is mostly remembered today for its iconic number, Ek Do Teen. But this is also an excellent example of 80s masala — violent, political, angsty, furious, and just plain fun. Costarring Chunky Pandey, Mandakini, Anupam...

Welcome to Khandaan: A Bollywood Podcast and the next movie in our 80s Dhamaka series is TRIDEV (1989). Directed and cowritten by Rajiv Rai, TRIDEV was a ginormous hit when it came out - enough for the Rais to repurpose it with Vishwatma a couple of years later. 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...

Starring Anil Kapoor, Meenakshi Seshadri, Nutan and Amrish Puri in lead roles, this Subhash Ghai movie written by Javed Akhtar is about as nonsensical as masala cinema gets. It is also one of the great pleasures of our movie watching lives. With music by Laxmikant Pyarelal and Javed Jaffrey making his breakdancing debut, every kid from the 80s ...

Directed by Harmesh Malhotra and with music by Laxmikant Pyarelal, Nagina wa...

Welcome to Khandaan: A Bollywood Podcast and our new 80s Dhamaka movie — KAALIA (1981). Starring Amitabh Bachchan, Parveen Babi, Asha Parekh, Pran and Amjad Khan, this Tinnu Anand directorial was a top favorite going in for Asim and Amrita. Alas, they were bamboozled by the rose tinted glasses of nostalgia because this movie has some… issues. We discuss what we remembered, what we didn’t, the music by RD Burman and the Bollywood hi...
