Ep 235- Ek Ladka Ek Ladki
Welcome to Khandaan: A Bollywood Podcast where this week we’re taking a trip back to the early 90s with EK LADKA EK LADKI (1992).
This remake of 1987’s Goldie Hawn/ Kurt Russell starrer OVERBOARD, stars Salman Khan and Neelam Kothari who follow the same enemies to lovers path. However, this is the early Salman so watch out for the sibling chemistry, the muscle vests, the fatphobia and the seeds of his love for farms.
Join us for a round of nostalgia.
