This week on Khandaan: chaos, candour, and a touch of Shah Rukh.
After a short break, the full Khandaan crew is back in the house—and we’re not easing in gently.
In this episode, we dive headfirst into everything that’s been on our minds: the personal cost of conflict, censorship in media, and how Bollywood fits into a world that feels increasingly divided. From WhatsApp group tensions to government-issued podcast warnings (!), this is one of our most personal episodes yet.
🎙️ What we talk about:
The India–Pakistan conflict and how it’s impacted real friendships
Media propaganda, misinformation, and the risks of being "too political"
Aamir Khan’s Sitaare Zameen Par trailer—can it survive the noise?
Suhana Khan in King—is this the launch her stardom needs or a risky bet?
Bhool Chuk Maaf, Sanam Teri Kasam, Lal Pari, and why viral Bollywood music won’t die
The surreal podcasting moment when we found out we’d been flagged by the Indian government
Our stance on love, peace, and why we'll always choose each other—even when it’s not popular
🎧 Plus:
We laugh through the weirdness of Housefull 5, dissect the awkward uncle energy of Akshay Kumar, and rant about Abhishek Bachchan’s rap career (again).
If you’ve ever felt like you don’t belong in your own fandom anymore, or you’re struggling with how to talk about art during political chaos—this one's for you.
