S3 Episode 1: Jaane Bhi Do Yaaro (1983) - with Kaveree Bamzai

In conversation with columnist, author and former editor of India Today, Kaveree Bamzai on Jaane Bhi Do Yaaro (1983).Superfan Kaveree and I tried to unpack what makes Kundan Shah's endlessly fascinating comedy — timeless. We talked about our favorite scenes, Kundan Shah's style, the comedic genius of Satish Shah, the film's increasingly relevant satire, its take on corruption and media, and the spoken language dialogue of the film.We also touched on the influences on the film, from the Marx Brothers to Antonioni to the 1964 Dilip Kumar film, Leader.Kaveree also made some interesting points about the famous 'Mahabharat scene' and why we, as a country, are much more touchy about the Ramayan than the Mahabharat.Feedback/comments/questions: loveofcinemasf@gmail.comCredits:Concept: Himanshu (@loveofcinemasf8)Host: Himanshu Editor: Devika JoglekarMusic: Nakul Abhyankar Copyrights © Love of Cinema 2020 Support the show (https://www.paypal.me/LoveOfCinema)
