We choose two films in which dancing is a plot element: Disco Dancer and Jhoom Barabar Jhoom. That's about all they have in common, other than
being fairly lightweight concoctions that we enjoy very much.
Episode breakdown: 30 minutes on Disco Dancer, another 10 or so on JBJ, then another 25+ on other films (Indian and otherwise) that are about
dancing in some way, our favorite film dancers, etc.
Tell us:
• Does Disco Dancer have some of the best deaths of all time?
• And is Rajesh Khanna doing the most extra cameo of all time?
• What flavors make up Jimmy ice cream?
• Do you know any disco scholars who can assess that aspect of the
cultural context of this film? And tell us how that works as the
dressing of a class struggle vendetta?
• How did Bobby Deol end up in JBJ?
• Has anything this fun ever happened to you at a train station?
