[@koolkiran5575]

One of the best bombay journey episode... Person with good understanding of geo politics, cinema knowledge and very articulated and knowledgeable person... Wanting to hear more from him.

[@badsen]

can’t agree more.. the beat episode till date.. didn’t realise how 40 mins went by listening to Kabir’s intense story telling.. superb stuff 👍

[@sumitabhsaha]

Yes. We need a Part 2 of this!

[@divyanshverma624]

@@Mashable_India thanks

[@guptaeisha]

Mini, Mini...so many times he mentioned his wife and it came so naturally in his stories. It is so sweet for a partner to value the other half even after being married for so many years. Lovely interview in btw.

[@abhrish]

This is best Bombay Journey episode with the least Bombay talks. I didn't knew his story and now I'm dying to watch Kabul Express.

[@Mashable_India]

Thank you so much!

[@prakashsharma9834]

I have seen Kabul Express and after hearing this I will definately see it again

[@cvvgfgfgg1061]

Didn't know*

[@TheArypoo]

Oh! It's an amazing movie. Saw it in the cinema. Still recall the thumping background music and Afghan vista.

[@sourendhoommail]

Yes need to rewatch it.

[@Sonigra_Saurab]

This needs part 2 with more details about his experience in Kabul, this is first time the host was listening to almost 90% of the episode

[@faith211085]

So true ….

[@adityakadam5203]

yeahhh part two of this episode should be done

[@candycandy3725]

i was hesitant about watching this episode but when i started watching, i ended up watching the whole episode and i must say that this was the best episode of the bombay journey.

[@Mashable_India]

Thank you! glad you liked the episode!

[@tanzeel_rk]

The first ever guest who's enjoying telling his stories with so much pride and laugh. Everyone struggles and they've struggle stories but his is quite unique and special. And look at his narration skills, it's amazing.

[@kago0901]

My guess is not a lot of folks (incl. Me) knew Kabir's story before this episode and only knew him as a big shot film guy. Probably one of the most interesting episodes and enchanting conversations ! Way to go Sid !!!

[@Mashable_India]

Thank you so much!

[@wahida2017]

This is the best Bombay journey episode so far. Didn’t realize how 40 minutes went by. I could listen to his stories for hours. Wish it was longer. I am from Afghanistan and I must say that his stories were so fascinating for me. He has experienced more than I did being an Afghan. Need to rewatch kabul express just for him. We need a second episode with him.

[@Vivek.101]

Yea really loved it. Didn't know that afghani people are fond of bollywood

[@wahida2017]

99.9% of Afghans are fond of Bollywood. I live in Montreal Canada and we never miss any movie in the theatres and OTT. I have been watching Bollywood since i was a kid. We know the language very well. My Spotify albums are hindi songs. You will be amazed to know that Afghans love Bollywood l.

Best ever episode... Kabir khan is a born director... Look at the way of his story telling I could literally visualize wht ever he said even mujahideen singing "mere sapno ki rani kab ayegi Tu" 😄

[@AlbeliRitu]

Loved the storytelling, mazza aagya

[@abhrish]

Would love a 2nd episode with him, please make it happen ASAP. Thanks for this one.

[@ashokrai2571]

the best episode of "The Bombay journey" so far. Kabir sir ki kahaniya sunn kr Mazza aagaya 💯💯

[@rahulahuja4020]

Your number 1 episode. Now I know why he is successful. What an intelligent, composed man. He has the intellect to understand the pulse. I am his fan.

[@tanzinamanzur4514]

Wow! I mean how awesome was this interview; was completely involved and enjoyed every second of it. Didn't knew Kabir as a person but this 40 minutes chat just showed how humble and down to earth this man is. The best part of this episode was how the host let Kabir tell his stories without interruptinghim. Undoubtedly the best episode.

[@PSKx13]

One thing we must acknowledge how much LIFE this man has lived. His grandchildren would have lots of stories to be heard

[@premgupta1048]

What a story teller he is I mean I was hooked through out the whole video, every single story was like I also started living. Damnn this session is much better than 98% bollywood movies.

[@Wanderingsoul-always]

This is hands down the best episode. One of those journeys you wish would never end. Kabir Khan is like that very interesting person who has loads of experiences and stories to tell. Really looking forward for the part 2 promised at the end.

[@SumanKapilash]

After this episode I came to know the real Kabir khan. I love this man. He is so real from heart

[@devankaghosh]

He's a natural storyteller, loved the Afghanistan anecdotes.

[@rahulahuja4020]

He is giving me a feel of John Abraham. His looks, mannerism. Like the guy.

[@candycandy3725]

john has become self obsessed now, i used to like him for what he was but now he is lke " main hamesha chappal pehnta hu, mere pass sirf 2 jodi jeans hai blah blah" if you are leading a simple midddle class life then let people talk about it naa, khud hi har jagah jaake dhindora pitvaate rehta hai, dekho main kitna simple rehta hu.

[@darshanbhatt1443]

Yes his features and Expressions are like John if feel he copy's Jhon or jhon copy's kabir.

[@pgcpdc]

Correct. Even the smiling and eye blinking

[@Anamika899-d2n]

Best episode of Bombay journey! And the detailed story of ' Kabul express ' shooting is amazing!

[@ayushn2308]

Best Bombay journey episode so far. So pure. Didn't know Kabir has such a positive personality and raw life experiences to share (unlike the other starry lives with the same undertone)

[@sarthakbh]

I was hesitant about clicking on this ep but once I started watching then there was no going back Kabir Khan’s mic saved the ep though 😂😂😂😂😂

[@greendeserted]

THE BEST EPISODE TO DATE. Kabir is so fabulous at articulating his experiences. Such a rich journey he has had. What a man and what a journey! Thanks, Siddharth for putting out this amazing episode.

[@onelife9938]

One of the gems that we have in the Indian Film Industry. A story teller who has a niche on human values & emotions. For the first time I have literally see entire segment of a interview. Kabir Khan as an individual, his personality speaks for him. Can never forget under rated films like Tubelight and 83. The best ones on my list these are and will always be. Please do another one with Kabir Khan the story teller.

[@rutulparikh99]

The experiences that he shared during shooting for Kabul Express, made me watch it again on Prime! 😄 really good episode

[@shalinisuri3219]

The best episode so far from a filmmaker who has lived such an experienced life! What story telling, expressions and honesty

[@divyanshverma624]

Blown away by listening to him Such great experiences and so learned man Proud to have a filmmaker who has experienced more than his own characters

[@krupagagwani762]

Such a refreshing storytelling of movie making. Kabir is so knowledgeable. We need more storytellers like him. One of the best Bombay-Cinema journeys, please get him back for more. Sid is doing so well. Have been watching so many journeys. Team Mashable kudos to you. 👍🏻 Best wishes

[@nikhilpawar3816]

Hi Sid, One of the best interviews. He has told one of the best/interesting back story of Kabir Sir's films and life overall. We need part 2.

[@pranavyadav9357]

What a life Kabir has lived ! Wow ! ! One of the best interviews ever ! Kabir, you're in my list of to meet people ! 😍

[@satvikp]

The clarity of this man's thought while having a conversation, shows why his films are made the way that they are. An absolute legend of a filmmaker! 🙌

[@jvk11]

Kabir Khan is a master storyteller, kept me hooked throughout the entire 41 mins segment

[@leomessi3392]

To listen to a filmmaker who has such a great way of explaining things is praiseworthy..kudos to kabir sir❤️

[@princeasimathur]

Always wanted to know the BTS stories of Kabul Express... one of my favourite movies.... I have watched it multiple times.... May Kabul and Afghanistan be at peace. God bless you Kabir sir. Let Kabul Fiza be with you forever.

[@KushagraaDubeyy]

Hands down the best Bombay Journey interview. As a young filmmaker who’s struggling with his motivation and filmmaking goals this was like a spiritual pilgrimage, thanks a a lot Sid for being the host you are !!

[@mayurchaudhari2158]

The only episode I am commenting on.. What a personality man.. Anybody with even lil bit of background on international relations and idea of national security would realise what a magnificent personality this gentleman has got.. So nuanced understanding.. Especially on politics and tajik border scenario, doab jail and Russian economy etc.. Respect Kabir Khan..

[@Godfearing-Atheist]

This by far the best episode, period. Such a pleasure to listen to Kabir sir 🙌.

[@suhaiblaiq5268]

The best Bombay journey episode till date..... Loved the story telling by kabir

[@sakshamsharma4503]

What storyteller he is man..... amazing....it was as if he made us jump into his world..

[@sourendhoommail]

When we get to know about his Afghanistan story, I don't care about his Mumbai rain stories or his favorite slangs etc. This was one of the surprisingly best episode from your channel. Came without much expectation but mind blown listening to his journey. Also Kabir sir if you are reading this, please make more movies like Kabul express and New York.

[@dasfreutmich1]

Wow ! One of the best episodes. I was transfixed for the full duration of the episode. Just realized Directors have such beautiful stories to share and should be interviewed as much as the on screen stars! Kabir Khan - Kudos to him for risking his life on Journalistic and Film Adventures !!

[@yasinmohammad3731]

Nice meeting you Kabir sir and listening to your untold stories. You taught me a very good lesson that maybe our ideology is different but we all are humans and we all have human problems and emotions. We should never judge a person just on our differences.

He can make out so many different movies from this different different stories itself. I was totally engaged in the story and did not felt like he is giving Interview. True Gem of Indian Film Industry.

[@prakashsharma9834]

Also Hatts off to Siddhart who has such curious personality and eager to know more about the person who is giving interview has allowed Mr. Kabir to takeover the interview and to say story without disturbing his flow. It needs courage to go out of the show theme and let it go with the flow. Well Done buddy 👏 👍

[@abhishekkothari7191]

I must admit that I was totally engrossed to the narration of Kabir khan.. amazing interview as always. Keep up the great work guys 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼 Looking forward for the next episode 😊 Ps: We want another episode with kabir khan.

[@preetamlobo2869]

Dude... He deserves a 2nd or even 3rd journey episode. The only episode till date where you had to hold back and forced yourself not to change of topic and went with the flow.
