Top 5 Overrated Bollywood Classics | Karan Mirchandani & Shreemi Verma | Cine5

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. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Cine5 x Popcorn Hour: Ranking Bollywood's Most Memorable Side Characters

For the first time ever on Cine5, Karan Mirchandani and Shreemi Verma are joined by guests — and somehow the episode becomes even less controlled. Joining them are Shantanu Anam and Akanksha Pandey, hosts of Popcorn Hour, for a gloriously unhinged conversation about Bollywood's greatest side characters. But very quickly, the discussion spirals into everything from Dil Chahta Hai's Subodh and Monsoon Wedding's Vijay Raaz to Love Ke Liye Kuch Bhi Karega, Hum Tum, Gully Boy, Kal Ho Naa Ho, Gupt, Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na and a surprising amount of Akshay Khanna discourse. Expect passionate defenses of forgotten characters, heated disagreements over who qualifies as a "side character," unexpected smash-or-pass debates, Hrithik Roshan arguments, Johnny Lever appreciation, and Karan's very public admiration for Suman Ranganathan. More than anything, this feels like four friends hanging out after a movie marathon and refusing to stay on topic. Who is Bollywood's greatest side character? Did we miss your favourite? Let us know in the comments.
