Rangeela | Has It Aged Well? ft. Tushar Abhichandani

[@krutikarekar3358]

3:41 they mention it being Rahman's first proper Hindi soundtrack. Came back here after I listened to it start to end.

[@devs2790]

Already listened to it twice on Amazon Prime Music but I guess I’ll watch it as well 😂

The story of ARR and Goa is incomplete without the song Hai Rama. RGV wanted a sensual song like Dhak Dhak, but ARR was bored of the same old formula. He was in a hotel, flipping through TV channels, when he stumbled upon Mughal E Azam and the song Pyar Kiya To Darna Kya. He was inspired by the classical raga that blended with the romantic mood. He decided to create a tune that had a similar fusion of tradition and modernity. He showed a rough sketch to RGV, who was furious. He couldn't imagine how a classical tune could be sexy and not boring. But ARR was confident of his vision. He completed the song with his signature style and production. He played it to RGV, who was speechless. He had heard a masterpiece. That's how Hai Rama came to life.

Not Dhak Dhak but Kaate Nahi Katate

[@sunitjhamb2450]

Abbas & Urjita have taken 'age' in context of how old they are but I respectfully submit that it should cover the entire lifespan of Hindi Cinema. The fact that one or more of panelists have often not seen 'famous, hit & iconic' films, would also make it an educative experience for them. The duo is hung up on RGV, wonder how would Hrishikesh Mukherjee, Satyajit Ray, Asit Sen, Prakash Mehra, Manmohan Desai etc. affect them. Fun, frivolity & nostalgia....

[@cranckcharlie31]

You are absolutely correct about this

[@dia606]

A lot of movies that came after mocked Urmila’s sex kitten-sexy siren status which is part of why Urmila never got her due i think. Some David Dhawan-type movies would have sequences about families looking for a bride for the son and they would point to a sexy-Urmila photo and the elders would react in alarm. KKHH had the charades sequence in the Simla camp where Kajol doing a sexy enactment for Rangeela was apparently not fit for children’s eyes - that’s how the movie got framed and how Urmila was slotted away from the gharelu bahu that Madhuri/Kajol and the rest cornered as their space

[@urjitawani.]

Oh fuuuuck! This actually makes so much sense. I don’t think our parents’ generation referred to Urmila as a “sex symbol” or did they? Not sure

[@raja-jl9os]

​@@urjitawani.ak 50 saal ki bollywood actress aur ak 50 saal ki average Indian aurat ko tum compare nhi kar sakte ho dono ki soch aur dressing sence m bhut fark h 😂

[@dia606]

@@urjitawani. i do think Gen X saw her as sexy, her fandom was probably most amongst young boys or men. Idk if they saw her as exclusively sexy and not “marriage material” like older people or if they could accept her as both things. I wonder if young women found her innocent sex kitten thing aspirational or threatening- the older gen clearly found it alarming

[@mainshaayartonahi27]

Do Mughal-E-Azam and Pyasa next please! Then Abbas could make jokes about being too young to remember these movies too

[@sujaypat]

Favourite Hindi film ever

[@saketlad]

21:14 was almost a jumpscare for me!

[@chandermotwani3493]

Superb direction by Ram Gopal Varma & Amazing Music & Score by A R Rahman 🎬👌💯🤘🏻

[@PulkitKocharofficial]

Tushar talking about a bad cut at 1:00:38 and then his camera goes off 😭POETIC

[@Dragonfruit233]

Rangeela soundtracks redefined Indian film music to a new era..rest is history.30years ofAr Rahman era..

[@PhysicsPotion]

movie 4K HD print available on YT for free.

[@urvi3]

Urmila was offered the role that eventually Karisma Kapoor did in DTPH. So, she was at least offered a role by Yash Raj, but she had turned it down.

[@mahendrareddy6625]

RGV introduce so many telugu directors also like Krishna Vamsi , Guna sekhar, Puri jagannadh,Teja , Harish Shankar, Ajay bhupathi

[@chandrufry]

Abbas filling in for Khalid Mohammad here when he twists RGV's statement! 😂

[@akhilvarala1170]

Hyderabadi Hindi(Dakhni) is pretty similar to Bombaiya lingo. That’s one reason why it might have a struck a chord with Hyderabadi audience.

[@shweta960]

As someone that listened to uncle pls sit as it dropped..... Tushar ❤😂😂😂...... Also urjita with her tapori 💯💯. Rangeela in those times was iconic 🎉🎉

[@adityapujari8]

Amazing take❤

[@PokhrajRoy.]

YASSSSSSS what a fun movie to talk about! Manish Malhotra OP

[@sunny13aug]

There was an incident I remember when my aunt didn't allow my cousin sister to watch the movie because of the glimpses of the songs she had seen in television and later my cousin brother who was much younger watched the movie before her and convinced my aunt to let her sister go to watch the movie because it was completely different from the songs😊❤

[@sunny13aug]

Also post Rangeela only Aamir Khan decided to do 1 movie at a time/year

[@urjitawani.]

All these stories about parents hiding their children from Urmila are blowing my mind cos mannn she looked so innocent 😭

[@nikhilkrishnakumar]

Couldn't have been Raghuleela, the place was still doing fairly well in 2006. Little less by the late 2000s-early 2010s because of Inorbit just sweeping through. But still better than no theatre containing Centre One, which was a tad outdated.

[@mahendrareddy6625]

RGV made 13 movies with Urmila matondkar first movie was Antham (Drohi) 2nd film Gaayam telugu movie 3rd movie Rangeela 4th Anaganaga oka roju 5th Daud 6th Satya 7th Junglee 8th Kaun 9th Bhoot and some other movies 1 or 2 special songs

[@AyushkumarJha-l2z]

one song in Aag and other one in Company

[@rohitp8900]

Aamir show all the way….#Legend❤❤

[@khursheedrind3232]

Lol #Yrf Offered Urmila Matondkar #DilTohPagalHai and #KaranJohar offered her #KuchKuchHotaHai she refused cuz she didn’t wanted to play supporting role after #Judaai 0:00

[@AyushkumarJha-l2z]

No she did that with Kuchh Kuchh Hota Hai but she chose Judaai after working in Dil Toh Pagal for 2 days as RGV was pressuring her for not doing DTPH which is a rumour but I want to believe kyunki uss time pe jo Yash Chopra ke saath kaam kar le toh RGV ke saath kyu kare as RGV cemented himself in Bollywood with Satya

[@rishabhmundra6942]

urjita is so sleepy 😂😂

[@dhavalmalte]

Man, does no one remember Jungle movie?

[@DevashishJagirdar]

Urjita should stop sporting middle class or iPhone...

[@anshumv]

I would highly recommend Jungle by Ram Gopal Varma starring Urmila, Sushant Singh Rajput and Fardeen. The technical excellence of the movie is at par with some of the Hollywood Cinemas during the era

[@dhavalmalte]

Absolutely, I'm surprised they didn't mention this movie at all in this episode. Songs are good too.

[@mahendrareddy6625]

Before 2012 he made very good films after 2012 his films are very less quality cringe films Raktacharitra 1 and 2 RGV last best movies The attacks of 26/11 was decent but not great

[@tg_gaming12]

Pls do an episode on mohabbatein 👌👌👌

[@maheshmenon1363]

Urjita and Abbas , mere “India Pod Day 2023” ke comments ke liye maafi. This is the 7th episode I have listened. It’s music has definitely aged well. Music fraternity still do renditions of ‘Hai Rama’. With that song a duo won the Indian Idol as well. Aamir’s Munna act was top class and he himself could not match that to Siddhu’s character in Ghulam. Surprised to know that Sridevi was considered for Urmila’s role

[@mahendrareddy6625]

RGV want to make this film with Nagarjuna and Sridevi ,but Nagarjuna was very busy that is the reason he made with Aamir Khan, RGV told in interview

[@rohitp8900]

Thank god if that is true…. Nag could never pull off what Aamir did….. RGV has said he wanted sreedevi but never heard about nagarjuna in any of his interviews

[@mahendrareddy6625]

RGV told an interview in recent times Tanha tanha song was inspired from Sir kylo katiya jaada lage song that is the reason tanha tanha song was erotic

[@rohitp8900]

Urjita is just not fit for this show…. She just doesn’t get the times, context, the iconic status etc etc of most films….. she just has a template “agency of woman” line for every episode and she uses it as a crutch coz she just doesn’t doesn’t get it!! And abbas, just a flop in Laal singh chadha doesnt take away Aamir’s streak of hits and record breaking films from rangeela to dangal and Tushar rightfully schooled you on that point! Dangal is still India’s highest worldwide grossing film with around 2000cr globally and Aamir has the maximum number of record breaking films as a matter of fact so either don’t talk about what you don’t know OR do your basic homework!

[@Nina-oi1qk]

lack of experience and she is incredibly immature

[@chandrufry]

Sasti Sucharita 😅

[@RahulNR15]

Hahaha😂

[@kalpeshvedak]

Tu Kalyan आ 😂

[@JohnDoe19754]

In alternate ending segment why in Urjita’s definition of successful women always needs to shit on men and say F you to be happy and have a successful career, why cant she be both , which millions of indian women are like our moms and sisters..pathetic..
