Summary

🎧 Support us on Patreon for exclusive episodes → (https://www.patreon.com/khandaanpodcast) Why do Bollywood remakes fail so badly? We break down the most cursed remakes — and who’s responsible. This week, *Asim, Amrita, and Sujoy* dive into Bollywood’s most cursed remakes — from directors remaking their own classics to studios completely misunderstanding what made the originals work. We talk ego, legacy damage, cosplay cinema, and why “mass” can’t be faked, with detours into *David Dhawan, **Sajid Khan, **Sanjay Gupta, and the ultimate remake disaster: **Ram Gopal Varma Ki Aag*. Expect chaos, hot takes, and a long list of films that should’ve stayed untouched. 🔗 Follow Khandaan Podcast: YouTube: [https://www.youtube.com/@khandaanpodcast] Instagram: [https://www.instagram.com/khandaanpodcast] X (Twitter): [https://twitter.com/khandaanpodcast] Patreon: [https://www.patreon.com/khandaanpodcast] #bollywood #daviddhawan #sanjaygupta #varundhawan
