This is a Khandaan hangout episode — the kind we usually keep for Patreon — but we wanted to share it on the main feed as a taster for newer listeners. If you enjoy this looser, more conversational format and want to support our work (plus get early releases and bonus episodes), you can sign up on Patreon. In this episode, Asim, Amrita, and a freshly jet-lagged Sujoy catch up on life, travel, and the strange state of Bollywood in 2024. From Sujoy’s three-week Japan adventure to the unexpected charm of Dining with the Kapoors, we talk about what we’ve been watching, what we’ve been avoiding, and how the industry’s mood is shaping our choices. Asim dives into Nishaanchi (Parts 1 and 2), Amrita unpacks the deranged discourse around Dhurandhar, and we try to figure out what a “best of the year” even means in a year like this.

Drishyam 3: One Body, Too Many Twists?
Samantha deserves a better family, Sujoy makes a case for Mirzapur, and Asim has found two good jokes in Welcome to the Jungle. Was it worth sitting through the rest of the film? You can probably guess.
Asim and Amrita are joined by Pakistani drama reviewer Sophia Q to discuss the opening episodes of Mitti De Baway. Does the much-anticipated pairing of Mahira Khan and Wahaj Ali deliver? We get into the three timelines, the performances, the striking production design and the amount of slow motion.
