In this episode, Asim, Amrita, and Sujoy revisit Yeh Dillagi — the glossy 90s rom-com that gave us Ole Ole, soft-boy Akshay Kumar, and peak “pretty boy” Saif Ali Khan. From Kajol’s unforgettable makeover arc and the film’s Sabrina roots to wildly outdated rich-people morality, rain-song dream logic, and VHS-era capitalism, the gang dives deep into why this movie still works as a nostalgia machine. Expect conversations about 90s fashion, Bollywood’s disappearing rom-com energy, questionable drunk acting, random Karisma Kapoor cameos, and why every rich family in Hindi cinema apparently owned plastic lawn chairs. Plus: the soundtrack absolutely slaps. 03:20 – Introducing Yeh Dillagi 08:20 – Sabrina comparisons and Kajol nostalgia 17:10 – Saif, classism, and 90s morality 23:20 – Champagne ads, Shimla businessmen, and hilarious “wealth” aesthetics 29:15 – Soft Akshay Kumar appreciation hour 30:10 – Soundtrack deep dive: Ole Ole, Hothon Pe Bas & more 37:20 – Dream sequences, rain songs, and background extras 43:40 – Random observations and Karisma Kapoor cameo discourse 47:00 – Final thoughts on why Yeh Dillagi still matters 👥 Hosted by Asim | Amrita | Sujoy Produced by Khandaan Podcast Follow us on YouTube , Tik Tok , Instagram & Patreon Bollywood, Hindi films, Indian cinema, 90s Bollywood, Kajol, Saif Ali Khan, Akshay Kumar, Yeh Dillagi, Ole Ole, Yash Raj Films, Bollywood podcast, Sabrina remake, Khandaan Podcast
