The Bollywood Broz

Filmfare, BollywoodBroz Style

A decade that began with Salman Khan playing a cop and beating a bunch of people up, ended with, well more of the same. But saying that doesn’t do justice to one of the best decades Bollywood has ever had. This decade made more money, and had more releases than any other decade in the history of Bollywood. This is the decade Gen Z babies will call the “Golden Age of Bollywood.” Original content is at a premium, and it’s no longer SRK bringing people to the seats.. It’s Deepika and Alia. All that said, in this episode, we attempt to honor the decade by ranking the top 10 movies of the 2010’s. From there, we look back at some of the trends we noticed from the decade and project what we expect from the new decade.

Expectations, Expectations, Expectations. Who would think that this 12 letter word, can have such a big impact on how we perceive a movie? In this episode, we take a deep dive on how our own expectations of a movie effect our thoughts on the movie itself. Through this episode, we hope to challenge every avid movie goer to be more mindful of their own biases, forecasts, hopes, and assumptions of any given movie, in the hope that we are all able to formulate our own, independent opinions on any cinematic piece.

Fan Spotlight - Kinza Hirani

The 2019 cinematic year is off to a flyer of a start, and the Bollywood Broz have been inspired by the shift the industry is going through with respect to the type of movies that are being released. Bollywood movies are now more focused on effective story telling, and less on making entertaining masala films. That said, in this episode we discuss the importance of ambiguity in these movies, so as to give the audience an opportunity to "choose sides" and remove director bias. We also analyze how the best Bollywood films find a way to establish deep background stories for each actor, and how not doing that can adversely impact a film. If you are a big movie head, this is the episode for you.

Ambiguous Times

As mentioned in previous episodes, we here at the Bollywood Broz are determined to involve the community of Bollywood fans as much as humanley possible on the show. With that said, for this episode we invited Armaan Masalawala to be the first guest of the podcast and to be the designated person to kick off our "Fan Spotlight" series. In this fan spotlight, we chat with Armaan about how his passion for Bollywood emerged and how that's impacted his life, a very iconic movie, and some of the best songs & singers in Bollywood history. We wrap it all up with a lighting round at the end. Tune in to hear our first fan spotlight. If you enjoy this episode, and want to be on the show as a fan spotlight, engage with us!
