Some Bollywood classics are sacred. This episode is not.

Karan Mirchandani & Shreemi Verma put nostalgia on trial and ask the question nobody wants in the family group chat: are these movies genuinely timeless or have TV reruns, memes and childhood memories done the heavy lifting?

From Three Idiots, Welcome and Andaz Apna Apna to 12th Fail, Sanju, Bajirao Mastani, Maine Pyar Kiya, Trishul and Animal, the panel debates what still works, what aged badly and which films accidentally inspired years of weaker copies.

Expect spicy takes on Rajkumar Hirani’s emotional formula, Welcome’s meme-powered legacy, exam-struggle cinema, Sanju’s biopic whitewashing, Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s visual grandeur, Sooraj Barjatya’s wedding universe and Animal’s influence on modern Bollywood.

Now it’s your turn: comment one movie you would defend with your life and one “classic” you think is fully mid.
