Ep 117- Why is Akshay Kumar so annoying?

Khandaan: A Bollywood Podcast bids goodbye to the year with friend of the show Get Filmy as we discuss the one Bollywood star who was everywhere during the pandemic: Akshay Kumar. What makes him tick? Why is he one of the biggest stars we have? Is his career progression directly related to the rise in jingoistic cinema in India? We also throw in reviews of Netflix's noir thriller Aranyak starring Raveena Tandon, Ashutosh Rana and Parambrata Chattopadhyay as well as the Pakistani anthology created by Meenu Gaur, Qatil Haseenaon Ke Naam starring Sarwat Gilani, Sanam Saeed, Mehar Bano and Eman Suleman now streaming on Zee 5 Global. To discuss all this and more, join us this week.
