Dulhe Raja | Has It Aged Well? Ep. 08 | Ft. Aseem Chandaver

Does one of the whackiest Govinda comedies of the 90s actually serve as a metaphor for crony capitalists eating up independent businesses in the 2020's? Yes, we go deep into the 'Raja Bhoj' and 'Gangu Teli' analogies while dissecting the hilarious cult classic 'Dulhe Raja'. Joining Abbas and Urjita is Aseem Chandaver, popularly known as @babajogeshwari from his social media handles, and though the episode is about Dulhe Raja we couldn't not have a 25 minute initial discussion about B-grade (and C-grade and D-grade) Indian cinema given Aseem's encyclopedic knowledge in the sphere. So get ready for name drops like 'Khooni Dracula', 'Bandh Darwaza', 'Veerana' and 'Haiwan'. Some other topics discussed include Kader Khan's brilliance as a script writer and performer, why Bollywood doesn't do slapstick well anymore, and why Govinda-Raveena pair is better than Govinda-Karishma.

[@PandaTheAB]

Insightful discussion 😄

[@Stonytude]

This guy has rattled on for some 30 mins on some random stuff man. Would appreciate a timestamp in the description indicating where the actual discussion on the movie begins.

[@moviesjust1740]

[@devynkumar1997]

Chandu is a legend

[@joydeeproni]

Please call @Varun Thakur and @Kautuk on this podcast #TISSArmy

[@zkaps463]

@urjita... In bhool bhulaiyya perhaps the 'billi' monologue was to show that the village folk are a bit closed to anything that isn't part of what they've grown up with, indicative of their dismissal of new ideas, lack of open mindedness. Also perhaps to sort of show how they have cognitive biases, which is why they also believe in the "bhooth baadha"...? Just a thought...

[@Libra41093]

Does aseem have his own KZbin channel?

[@devynkumar1997]

Shout out to Tadpatri Talkies

[@ekkax]

Sahi tha ye.

[@gs3160]

[@devynkumar1997]

His Facebook is a gold mine for anyone who wants epic bolly kids sadly his insta got banned

[@MaheshSharma-kq3bl]

SRK has taken rights but he won't be starring in it and it can work if done smartly example frm same Red Chillies Production house ittefaq starring Sidharth Malhotra and Sonakshi Sinha it was done pretty well it didn't work that much but if made fr OTT by right people it might work

[@r3activi5t13]

I doubt they believed in the product rather to make one film they believed in, they'd to screen 10 come what may.

[@mehtakaran85]

Hera pheri soon guys!

[@sushant1492]
