Listen "Ep 279- War 2 and Coolie Reviews"
Episode Synopsis
This week on Khandaan: A Bollywood Podcast, we’re tackling two of the most talked-about (and trolled) recent releases — War 2 and Coolie.
It’s safe to say neither film blew us away, but that doesn’t mean we didn’t have plenty to say. From Hrithik Roshan’s sleepwalking Kabir to NTR Jr. stuck in the wrong movie, from Shruti Haasan’s mannequin-level characterisation to Aamir Khan’s husky-filled cameo, this episode covers it all.
We dig into:
Why Coolie proves pan-India blockbusters have cracked the “fanbase activation” formula
Why War 2 fails as both mass masala and spy-universe film
The baffling treatment of female characters in both films
The accidental gay rom-com energy of Raghu & Kabbu
Whether YRF’s spy universe has any future after this mess
It’s ranty, it’s unfiltered, it’s classic Khandaan.
Plus: don’t miss our brand new video series now live on YouTube! Our first episode — Ranking All the Salman Khan Movies — is up, with much more coming soon.👉 Watch and subscribe here: Khandaan on YouTube
