Aankhen(2002) | Has It Aged Well?
Episode description
This week on ‘Has It Aged Well?’ Abbas and Urjita are joined by comedian Chirayu Mistry to discuss the 2002 heist movie with a twist: Aankhen. Topics discussed include: Paresh Rawal’s magnificent comic performance, the weird concept of three blind men robbing a bank and whether it originated from the play the film was adapted from or somewhere else, Amitabh Bacchan’s fascination with dark characters in the early 2000’s, the ‘Mandela’ effect of this movie and why it might be a good companion piece to ‘Hera Pheri’, Abbas’ disbelief at the travel logic of this movie and more.
