Khakee ft. Alok Sharma | Has It Aged Well?

This week on 'Has It Aged Well?' we're taking a trip back to 2004 to talk about the enticing cop drama 'Khakee' starring Amitabh Bachchan, Akshay Kumar, Aishwarya Rai, Ajay Devgan and Tusshar directed by Rajkumar Santoshi. Joining Abbas and Urjita is writer, director, and die hard Amitabh Bachchan fan Alok Sharma. Topics discussed include: The various phases of Amitabh's career, how this film set up the "angry old man" phase of AB's career, the times Akshay used to give a damn, the infamous twist of this film, what cultural and social messages from the film hold up twenty years later and the banger of a song that "Aisa Jadoo" is.
