Bhoot (2003) | Has It Aged Well? Ft.

Our audio podcast listeners get an exclusive segment called 'Alternate endings' where we script alternate endings and pitch a sequel to the film we're discussing. Listen to the episode on Spotify, Apple podcasts, Gaana, Jio Saavn or wherever you listen to podcasts.

Be afraid, be very afraid. But also have a few laughs along the way, because this week on 'Has It Aged Well?' we're covering our first all out horror film - Ram Gopal Varma's 2003 cult hit 'Bhoot'. Our guest is comedian, writer, (not a) youtuber, and all round fun guy Rohan Joshi. Topics discussed include: How RGV made a Mumbai flat look scary, our histories with horror cinema and the scary stories we grew up listening to (teen mundi wali aurat FTW), Urmila Matondkar's brilliant portrayal of a possessed woman, the boost RGV gave to Indian horror films, Nana Patekar's very non-Nana performance, the fantastic use of sound in the film, the urban legend of a person who died (or not) while watching this film at a cinema in Delhi, and a lot more.
