Bollywood's Artless Trash vs. Artful Trash | Nadaaniyan | Badass Ravikumar | Loveyapa #148

Listen to this episode from Queen is Dead - A Film, TV and Culture Podcast on Spotify. It's here (again) - The type of episode we don't necessarily like to produce but really had to, just to convert the time wasted watching Dharmatic Entertainment's "Nadaaniyan" into something (hopefully) productive and cathartic!Cris, Dhruv, and Amartya try to make sense of Bollywood's sheer incompetence today and find (at least Cris does) a potential savior in Himesh Reshammiya, "Badass Ravikumar."*Apologies for Dhruv's wonky audio in this ep. He stupidly forgot to switch the microphone source from his Airpods to the podcast mic; what you hear here is a substantially dampened version of his anger and frustration.*TIMECODESWhy are we here? - [00:00 – 09:37]Artless Trash ("Nadaaniyan") - [09:37 – 59:13]Artful Trash ("Badass Ravikumar") - [59:13 – 01:20:38]Mediocre Trash ("Loveyapa") - [01:20:38 – 01:40:54]B'wood's Triangle of Badness - [01:40:54 – 02:14:10]What will be there? - [02:14:10 – 02:25:35]Amartya's Substack & Outro - [02:25:35 – 02:31:07]Do hit 'Follow' on Spotify if you haven't already to helpthe podcast reach more people!Follow our Instagram page:⁠⁠https://instagram.com/queenisdead.filmpodcast⁠⁠.QID LINKTREE: ⁠https://linktr.ee/queenisdead⁠.SUBSCRIBE TO AMARTYA'S "GENRE LITERACY" SUBSTACK:https://amartyaacharya.substack.com/.Follow us on Instagram at:Amartya: ⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/amartya25/⁠⁠Dhruv: ⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/terminalcinema/⁠⁠Cris: ⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/prdscris/⁠⁠Follow us on Letterboxd at:Amartya: ⁠⁠https://letterboxd.com/amartya/⁠⁠Dhruv: ⁠⁠https://letterboxd.com/aterminalcinema/⁠⁠Cris: ⁠⁠https://letterboxd.com/crislim/⁠⁠
