      Please make a video on Kabhi Haan Kabhi Naa in this time machine recall. There is a rumour that this was SRK's all time favorite movie.

      Andaz Apna Apna & Kabhi Haan Kabhi Naa - both came in 1994. I saw AAA in theatre & thought why isn't everyone watching it ? I remember telling friends that if you have seen even one film in life, AAA has to be there. Similarly, KHKN is stunning work, even now it brings sense of nostalgia about simpler things n life then. Why not go deep into history & review from 1930s, 1940s - movies like Duniya na mane, Kismat, Andaz (Dilip, Raj, Nargis) & then move forwards. That would be real tribute to Hindi cinema. 1994 is still relatively fresh. Then, there's a Hindi dubbed version of Sanskrit movie - Adi Shankaracharya (Sarvdaman Banerjee) - see it - its an experience beyond any movie ever made. Review these Film Companion - I have been enjoying your content for many years...

    The beauty of AAA is it was clean comedy with the punch lines one can die for... Every character of this movie is remembered even today just like 'Sholey'. Even one can remember batla danney chaiwala... The the secret of AAA's longevity for the masses. I've a friend who can tell the story of AAA with the complete dailogue & acting you feel that you are watching the movie live, that's the best compliment AAA got from his admirers even today... Long live AAA🙏🙏🙏

      Watch original - Nadiya ke Paar. It's still iconic as its so true to its roots. Even DDLJ & KKHH to me haven't aged well (I watched both 6-7 times in theatre). Enjoy Nadiya ke paar more than these movies now a days. So, may be that's why Panchayat works - authenticity.

    Paresh Rawal’s ‘Teja’ is the best character. You just feel like giving that guy a hug, because:-
    1. Logo uske bhai ko Ram samajhte the aur isse raavan.
    2. His dad’s munim bored him to death, so uske patte bicha diye.
    3. Mogambo ka gafla kiya so he’s hiding from him.
    4. Most importantly, his henchmen- Bhalla & Robert always let him down. ALWAYS. EVERY SINGLE TIME. It makes him cry after every ‘Mere naye plan ke mutaabik..”
    5. When he calls for Ransom, even Amar doesn’t take him seriously, “Bolna hai toh bol nahi toh phone rakh raha hu..” He’s like nahi ruk ruk ruk..
    6. Then he demands for 50 lakhs but settles for 7835.29. Damn, imagine the heartache.
    7. His very own Robert & Bhalla don’t acknowledge him as Real Teja & say “Ha, mark toh hona chahiye..”
    Time & again everyone let him down throughout the movie. IMAGINE.
    So many problems in life. Poor guy.

    Andaz Apna Apna & Kabhi Haan Kabhi Naa - both came in 1994. I saw AAA in theatre & thought why isn't everyone watching it ? I remember telling friends that if you have seen even one film in life, AAA has to be there. Similarly, KHKN is stunning work, even now it brings sense of nostalgia about simpler things n life then. Why not go deep into history & review from 1930s, 1940s - movies like Duniya na mane, Kismat, Andaz (Dilip, Raj, Nargis) & then move forwards. That would be real tribute to Hindi cinema. 1994 is still relatively fresh. Then, there's a Hindi dubbed version of Sanskrit movie - Adi Shankaracharya (Sarvdaman Banerjee) - see it - its an experience beyond any movie ever made. Review these Film Companion - I have been enjoying your content for many years...

    Reasons Andaz Apna Apna didn't work in 1994-
    1.Was supposed to release on 22nd July(Krantiveer released instead)but the release date was then pushed to 23rd Sept(Main Khiladi Tu Anari and The Shawshank redemption release day)then was pushed further to OCT and then finally to 4th Nov...
    2.On 4th Nov 1994,released 5 other Major releases,Suhaag,Yaar-Gaddar,Udhaar ki Zindagi,Sardar and Speed...
    3.HAHK's Magic was still going on(5th August 1994 released)Nobody was interested in watching a Comedy...
    4.Despite being a Flick filled with Huge Stars,there was absolutely no promotion for the Film...
    5.People were falling off their seats laughing during trials(70+ trials)but in theaters the audience waa absolutely silent.
    AAA flopped in Bombay but downsouth it did well and probably in Delhi too,Komal Nahta's Film information called it an average grosser back in 1995 but now even he says that AAA was a Flop,Weird.

    It didn't work at the time of its release because it took four years to make and by the time it released it was considered stale. Yes, the irony is not lost on me. Also there was literally nothing like it at the time. The cable scene in India was in its infancy. Compare that to another cult film - Dil Chahta Hai, released in 2001 that too was unique - that film worked because by 2001 Indians had hundreds of national and international channels to watch and liked their content. Sometimes it's all about the timing.

    I apologize if someone has already made a similar comment that I didn’t catch, but I’m curious if anyone else also sees parallels to another 1994 release: “Dumb and Dumber”.
    I’m Indian-American and a fan of Indian movies-which is rare, apparently-and so to explain the the enduring appeal of Andaz Apna Apna to others, I often say it’s a bit like if the Farrelly Brothers had written “Dumb and Dumber,” but had Mel Brooks direct it. Both movies are about a pair of friends who, shall we say, aren’t the brightest diyas in the aarti, and get a little in over their heads. It’s not a perfect comparison by any means-Harry and Lloyd are arguably more earnest and well-intentioned than Amar and Prem-but if you’ve seen both movies, you’ll recognize some common plot elements: Kidnapping/hostage-taking, a container of valuables that everyone wants, romantic competition, the main characters irritating the shit out of a henchman, and most memorably (speaking of shit), a toilet scene featuring the more innocent half of the pair falls victim to a laxative-based prank. Yet they’re so distinct in tone that while I might notice their common elements, I never feel like I’m watching two versions of the same movie.
    TL;DR: Perhaps the biggest similarity between “Andaz Apna Apna” and “Dumb and Dumber” is that they’re both remarkably well-written, well-crafted, and 25+ years later, still well-loved movies about a couple of complete morons. 😆

      rahul tiwari rahul tiwari 🙄 Yes, thank you, Mr. Helper. It seems like you’re looking for an excuse to be offended. I merely said that I often use Dumb and Dumber as a point of comparison for people who are unfamiliar with Indian movies, and asked if others thought the comparison was apt, by way of pointing out a few of the common elements between the two movies. Sucharita did the same thing in comparing Amar and Prem to Chandler and Joey, right down to her noting that Friends began its run in-wait for it-1994.
      If you weren’t expressing unnecessary outrage, and we’re merely pointing out a fun fact about movie release dates, then I apologize for my harsh response.
      (P.S. If you DID get offended for no reason, then I’ll be happy to give you one so you don’t go home empty-handed. How about this: Kabir Singh/Arjun Reddy/Gujju-bro Modi was dangerously misogynistic trash, and if you liked it, you suck. Better?)

    Those days, new Hindi film used to get released on both VHS and Cinema Hall on the same day. Only thing is VHS use to have advertisements on the bottom banner and also in middle, a couple of scenes and songs cut. After a month an uncut version without Ads use to come back on Cable TV. I remember watching AAA on the same day of release at home. Didn't like it the first time but liked it eventually. Then, Hum Aapke Hai Kaun changed the whole process where new movie got released only in Cinema Halls. Which finally led to piracy.

    Actually the film didn’t work mainly because it took several years to complete . Raveena and Karishma’s debut movies were just released and they were cast for this one immediately . They weren’t big stars when they signed it . But the movie was just getting delayed year by year . At one point ,there were rumors that the film was shelved . If u remember , in the movie Damini ( in 1993 ,also directed by Raj kumar santoshi) there was a scene where Aamir khan did a special appearance song with Meenakshi sheshadri on stage and after the performance , Rishi kapoor’s friend asks Aamir “ when is AAA releasing”. Aamir says very soon and the friend says “ pls release it sooner “ ....it showed that the audience was eagerly awaiting for the movie but it just kept getting delayed ....and when finally it got released , there was hardly any promotion , the songs had a very retro touch and hence didn’t top up the music charts , half of the audience had lost interest in the film and mainly due to lack of promotion and hype , it failed at the box office ....but whoever saw it , loved it . And then that was the time of VHS tape where we could easily rent the cassette and watch it at home after few months ....it was only Hum aapke hain kaun which stopped the release on VHS tape and forced the audience to throng to cinema halls once again....and rest is history

    @sucharita and others at film companion... I do honestly think people discovered the gem that Dil Se was much after its release. I believe Dil se released the same year as ghulam and kuch kuch hota hai which took the cake, but the subtle nuances in the film still stay as relevant. I honestly can go on and on about its intricacies, the characters, the internal conflicts, the very fact that Ratnam was collaborating with Gulzar saab and the hidden subtext of Ghalib's poetry (not just in the satrangi re song but also of the movie depicting the seven stages of love). Of course, it is among the best performances of SRK as well. Would love for you to do a flashback/fc retake on that movie.

Yes, it was but I think 1975 - Deewar, Sholay & Chupke chupke changed the direction of Hindi cinema. Similarly, 1994 was one such year - KHKN, AAA, Bandit Queen in same year went on to change everything in later years.... And yes 2018 (though not as big as 1975,1994,2001) was probably a great year in recent times - Andhadhun, Badhai ho, Bhavesh Joshi, Manmarziyan, Tumbbad, Mukkabaz, Zero....
