Welcome to Khandaan: A Bollywood Podcast where today the review of the week is none other than DISCO DANCER (1982) starring Mithun Chakraborty.

This classic dance film, directed by Babbar Subhash (Kasem Paida Karne Wale Ki, Dance Dance, Love Love Love), can best be described as a series of scenes held together by some of the best disco music to have come out of India, courtesy the one and only Bappi Lahiri. Co-starring Rajesh Khanna, Om Puri, Karan Razdan, Kim, and Kalpana Iyer, this movie was a sensation when it came out. Join us on a surprising journey we didn’t expect to take.

We are watching this on request from our Patreon, Laina.

Shownotes:

The "inspirations" of the Disco Dancer Soundtrack:
Jimmy Jimmy Aaja Aaja inspired from Ottawan - T'es O.K.
Krishna Dharti Pe Aaja Tu inspired from JESUS- Andy Tielman
Koi Yahaan Nache Nache inspired from The Buggles - Video Killed The Radio Star
The song Jimmy is dancing to when discovered by David Brown is Cerrone's Paradise

Disco Dancer around the world:
Russian Talent show: Disco Dancer including some horrible brown face
And another of version of Jimmy Jimmy again from a Russian Talent show
The Uzbeki version of Goron Ki Na Kalon Ki

and of course we can't forget:
M.I.A. - Jimmy
Tiger Shroff's I Am A Disco Dancer 2.0
and the reprise from Golmaal 3
