Bhoot (2003) | Has It Aged Well? Ft.

Our audio podcast listeners get an exclusive segment called 'Alternate endings' where we script alternate endings and pitch a sequel to the film we're discussing. Listen to the episode on Spotify, Apple podcasts, Gaana, Jio Saavn or wherever you listen to podcasts.
Be afraid, be very afraid. But also have a few laughs along the way, because this week on 'Has It Aged Well?' we're covering our first all out horror film - Ram Gopal Varma's 2003 cult hit 'Bhoot'. Our guest is comedian, writer, (not a) youtuber, and all round fun guy Rohan Joshi. Topics discussed include: How RGV made a Mumbai flat look scary, our histories with horror cinema and the scary stories we grew up listening to (teen mundi wali aurat FTW), Urmila Matondkar's brilliant portrayal of a possessed woman, the boost RGV gave to Indian horror films, Nana Patekar's very non-Nana performance, the fantastic use of sound in the film, the urban legend of a person who died (or not) while watching this film at a cinema in Delhi, and a lot more.

Put rohan in anything and he makes it so much fun and increases the worth of the show manifold, such amazing show guys!

[@hspraj]

I watched 'Bhoot' in the theater, and they played the trailer for 'Koi Mil Gaya' along with the movie. Later that night, I was very scared as I sensed a UFO on the rooftop and a ghost under the bed 😅

gaand fatt ke aapki 4 ho gyi hogi bhaiyya

[@PokhrajRoy.]

You’ve chosen a fun guest who I consider a Pop Culture Professor.

[@nikhilsahane]

RGV is Tarantino of india just that he didn't stop after 10 films

[@prernarao4080]

This is the 5th such instance of the has it aged well series, which has made me first go watch the film first and then come back to this analysis!! Just so that I can watch this video, I've watched the movies! This is crazy!

[@kunalsingh7732]

Mr. Joshi went full nerd mode on bhoot and I'm not complaining

[@RB-ey5se]

Fantastic episode all told. I think 13B did urban horror really well as did the Tamil films Andhaghaaram and Game Over

[@PandaTheAB]

Rohan is always a treat to listen to 🥳 Another fun episode 👏

[@please.chriss]

Rohan is just too joshi-la 🔥🔥

[@RB-ey5se]

Just a quarter of the way in, and Rohan should be the third host. Excellent.

[@alohomora7228]

I like how Urmila is just referred to as "Vishal ki Biwi" most of the movie

[@shreyabhandari0801]

I didn't realise Marathi and telugu were so similar we also call our uncle and aunt, mama and athaya

[@hbkumar]

Rohan is a delight to watch! One of the best episodes!

[@jineshudani401]

One of those very interesting yet annoying episodes jisme aapko panelist ki insights bohot acche bhi lag rahi hai, par sirf usi ke bolte rehne pe baal nochne ka bhi mann kar raha hai

[@AmnolGupta]

Haha Rohan Joshi is very passionate

[@jineshudani401]

@@AmnolGupta Annoyingly passionate..passionately annoying

[@anindyarastogi1]

Yeah.... It was more of a monologue by Rohan.. I missed the discussion

[@Juss169]

Rohan just raises the energy of the room! Love that his observations are so on point and relatable too.

[@namanjotsinghns]

Pari I thought was good, that used the main protagonist as a metaphor for the refugee crisis

[@please.chriss]

Just watched the movie bhoot, now watching thiss killer episode ♥️👌

[@shubhamroyal6977]

Prisoner OP

[@abdishakurabdulahi3325]

classic film tha Ajay Devgn was baap level🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@dia606]

I will watch anything Rohan Joshi is in

[@fibicreations]

Same

[@coolbluesgunjan]

Please try and get rgv as the guest

[@MoreFriesplease]

One of Urmila's greatest performances.

[@shadabahmed579]

super-smart rohan joshi

[@Rohan-bg8ci]

Oh yeahh

[@siddheshadhatrao5866]

Bhoot should be remade - same couple, manjeet actually turns out to be psychological disorder which urmila has…Ajay being faithful husband is still trying to manage his life with a possessed Wife. Will she be able to live a normal life? Will Ajay be able to make sure she comes out of this disorder? Will love conquer the horror!??

[@subhAjitDin]

Raat was RGV's best horror movie and Bhoot is 2nd best

[@mahendrareddy6625]

In between these two movies there was another movie Deyyam 1995, but this is only release in telugu Deyyam also very scary 😱😱😱

[@subhAjitDin]

I think Bhoot is one of the under rated movies of RGV

[@mahendrareddy6625]

No Bhoot is a soo popular because it's a super hit

[@mahendrareddy6625]

If you watch Deyyam 1996 telugu movie overall movie was extraordinary.but come to the climax it's not good RGV didn't gave the proper reason for that ghost story literally he stopped the movie with incomplete audience were shocked, RGV explanation about that audience didn't care about backstory of a ghost they just want to feel the horror elements till the end director should sustain the horror feel throughout the film .

[@mahendrareddy6625]

When RGV make his first horror film RAAT (Raatri) RGV said his mother saw a preview she was scared after that she went to her house she was still little scared she continuously want to come to reality after some seconds she realised this is not a real it's fictional story my son making this movie this not real

[@lelu810]

1:01:09 100 days was remade from Tamil movie

[@rahulgabda5293]

Tarantino at least paid his actors and crew well, our desi Tarantino was notorious for not paying anything to his actors and crew.

[@mahendrareddy6625]

Bhoot movie telugu title was very crazy,(12 va antastu) it means 12th floor ofcourse this is a hindi film but why 12th floor, is this a title ?

[@mahendrareddy6625]

Watch RGV interview about his horror movies his definition of horror is sustainability how much time to sustain that horror feel with story is a main thing in horror movies, mostly every horror story have a reason why ghost possessed a human if you enter into backstory the horror end there. that's the reason mostly horror movies have very less time to explain that ghost story maximum 95 percent of the movie was about to scare the audience with jump scares and psychologically.

[@sarpanch9627]

Rohan Joshi aka Wannabe supreme

[@rohiticku]

Guys, please watch The Witch and tell us if it has aged well. ;)

[@rjsam26]

i like these episodes, i have this HUGE concern though, how can Abbas host this show and call himself a wannabe Cinephile when almost in every show he never understand the epic film gags like in this that Prem Aggan epic lines. He looks like a complete FOMO in things like this happen. I think this show really need a new host maybe a good Desi Cinephile who live & breathe cinema since his early days not a new age data plan cinephile of Netflix generation like Abbas himself. I am up for the job if somebody ask me. He looks like the most odd one out in almost every episodes. Think about it guys!

[@princeasimathur]

Raat

[@devynkumar1997]

[@maybepriyansh9193]
