from different backgrounds unlock the world of desi cinema I'm Winnie the desi

5
00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:49,120
who's never been to India hi I'm Killy I am a big fan of doom that's why I

6
00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:56,000
started this podcast my name is Nikki formerly a fan of Tatayang formally not

7
00:00:56,000 --> 00:01:03,720
now okay I'm Adam I'm a current fan of Tatayang probably her biggest fan what

8
00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:10,880
are we watching today we're doing an iconic film not just in India but also

9
00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:20,440
in Thailand as much as I can remember yeah I think so it's called really really

10
00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:26,960
emphasis on the age I think the D and the H make it sound like a Z

11
00:01:26,960 --> 00:01:56,120
yeah like that yeah I'm just clinging on to the

12
00:01:56,120 --> 00:02:02,760
so you've never heard this word before it's not like it is an expression it's

13
00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:13,760
like like it's a kind of from on a water PR to more like a bigger meaning I don't

14
00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:19,240
know the term yeah so it's it's like a celebration huge blast kind of thing

15
00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:22,920
yeah was it a big word before this movie was it commonly used or did this movie

16
00:02:22,920 --> 00:02:26,120
put it like on the radar did it send this word to the top of the Google

17
00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:32,000
search chart yeah it did it did no no no I mean like did it get added to the

18
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:35,560
dictionary to be honest I don't know I don't know much about Hindi like

19
00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:40,400
colloquial like what's being used and not because yeah yeah so doom is like a

20
00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:46,840
very wide 2k movie it's an action movie that's kind of like a buddy cop makes a

21
00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:52,160
buddy cop heist movie it's a fast and furious ripoff fast and furious ripoff

22
00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:57,640
that's what it is in 2004 yeah so fast and furious came out in 2001 yeah I

23
00:02:57,640 --> 00:03:04,560
looked like a mix of fast and furious and oceans 11 well but crossover in a

24
00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:09,440
way though ahead of its time because as a big fast and furious fan fast and

25
00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:17,240
furious 5 has a big like money high scene as well so so it copied fast and

26
00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:25,480
furious and then fast and furious copy do I must have it must have because if

27
00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:30,120
that's the furious 5 is oceans 11 meets fast and furious but have you seen it

28
00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:34,200
have you guys seen any of the fast and furious never made it to five of course

29
00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:39,800
I made it to to nine yeah okay I forgot I thought I kind of forgot like what I

30
00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:43,920
was watching when I was watching later fast and furious like I don't know the

31
00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:49,200
numbers it's all same film for me I love fast and furious I kind of forgot they got

32
00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:54,320
really really good up until seven and then it fell off but one two and three

33
00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:58,840
is okay four is alright and then five six and seven is like one of the best

34
00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:04,680
runs of film ever like for action series it just started as like a street racing

35
00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:11,320
film like during during the 2000s 2001 yeah in poor tuner culture was very

36
00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:16,240
popular you see it in movies like fast and furious in games like need for speed

37
00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:21,720
like street racing and then somehow fast and furious just took did a revamp and

38
00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:27,240
then it became like straight-up heist action movie series yeah so they did

39
00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:31,400
fast and furious one which I saw in theaters when you were in junior high

40
00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:36,680
which I was when that movie came out that was a very hot date movie to go to

41
00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:43,760
very hot looking like you know people people and you know street racing and

42
00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:48,240
every got everyone into it and you know I'm from LA so like tons of Asians movie

43
00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:54,200
industry racing there fast and furious 2 did not have Vin Diesel so it was a

44
00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:58,080
buddy cop film that's some fears really go to Tokyo it has a new director and

45
00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:02,960
then and a fantastic director he's the one that made the series really good my

46
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:08,720
point is then once he took over with when he did four five six and seven he

47
00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:12,920
convinced Vin Diesel to come back by saying we're gonna do a Dungeons and

48
00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:18,020
Dragons type film because Vin Diesel is very into Dungeons and Dragons this is

49
00:05:18,020 --> 00:05:22,160
true so he says look it's gonna be a team and they all have different roles

50
00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:26,440
and they all level up so like Nikki said Ludacris is in fast and furious 2 is

51
00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:31,220
like a bookie when he gets into four or five and six he becomes the like

52
00:05:31,220 --> 00:05:35,920
greatest hacker in the world so they all like level up each movie and they all have

53
00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:38,600
their different roles and that's why it's all about the family it's because

54
00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:42,860
it's like a D&D team growing as a family growing together and leveling up so by

55
00:05:42,860 --> 00:05:46,540
the time they're in like seven they're like flying through the air and stuff

56
00:05:46,540 --> 00:05:50,300
like that and so that's what got Vin Diesel on board so it is like a D&D

57
00:05:50,300 --> 00:05:56,760
film set in the real world with heist movie but I do like that both movies

58
00:05:56,760 --> 00:06:00,360
have a song that made it that made the movie more popular than it probably

59
00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:04,560
would have been without the song with you have Tokyo Drift with doom you have

60
00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:13,240
the best first and furious film for me I love that but it's a song right

61
00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:19,920
and I think that like that appeal to people who had never watched fast and

62
00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:23,120
furious before to watch it

63
00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:25,120
Oh

64
00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:32,480
can you keep saying he doesn't know the lyrics even though most of the song is

65
00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:36,200
just do much alley do much alley doom there is like there is something going on

66
00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:40,240
but it doesn't matter it's like the film like there are a lot of things going on

67
00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:44,960
in the film doesn't matter what matters is like the bike and do much alley yeah

68
00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:50,760
so so doom comes out after fast and furious 2 so I think it does combine the

69
00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:57,240
buddy cop with the street racing origins of one and they use a bunch of

70
00:06:57,240 --> 00:07:01,240
motorcycles so it's not much cars it's a lot of motorcycles but they all have

71
00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:05,320
NOS hooked up yes so they're still using NOS and that's how you can tell it's a

72
00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:11,160
fast and furious ripoff instead of using it for balloons like fun people they use

73
00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:15,800
it to race each other yeah we the podcaster in at fear of stairs

74
00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:22,360
podcaster big fan of NOS and that's why we start watch doom to go fast

75
00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:27,040
you can use NOS in balloons it's the same same same same compound nitrous oxide

76
00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:37,000
into all I didn't know that if you use oh if you take whipped cream canisters and

77
00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:42,800
hook it up to your car your car fucking zooms past the street yeah you can like

78
00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:49,280
jump over bridges and stuff if you use those whipped cream canisters yeah

79
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:55,880
yeah alternatively if you inhale NOS it's a really pleasant high nothing bad

80
00:07:55,880 --> 00:08:00,340
can happen to you really sure I looked at us how's the experience like well it's

81
00:08:00,340 --> 00:08:05,320
like you're flying you feel like the speed of doom yeah that's what like

82
00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:13,720
that's what I've been told that's what I've been told yeah by the way let's do

83
00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:17,880
a because I know we hung out yesterday and to watch the movie kind of but I

84
00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:20,520
still feel like I haven't because all we did was watch the movie how are you

85
00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:25,040
guys doing you guys did okay Nikki was like yelling at the movie the whole time

86
00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:28,960
because he's been super stressed out so like I've never seen Nikki like that

87
00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:35,280
angry at a movie but like I know the anger wasn't towards the movie so like

88
00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:43,160
his stress it's a dumb movie I honestly think it was dumb yeah like in an

89
00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:48,220
entertaining way yeah yeah can't help but so what happened was like I mean I

90
00:08:48,220 --> 00:08:54,760
haven't I have a theory what happened it's like so doom is a huge inspiration

91
00:08:54,760 --> 00:09:00,840
for Happy New Year it seems like there were so many plot points no no no not

92
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:05,320
that theory the theory of like why Nikki was the ending so I starting with this

93
00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:10,320
yeah so it looked like it's a it's a very it's a I mean Happy New Year took

94
00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:16,960
so much inspiration from doom and it was so bad that it was good but doom doesn't

95
00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:22,240
doesn't touch that point of being so bad that it is good so Nikki would for Nikki

96
00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:27,600
it was just bad dumb movie and then that's why he was fucking angry at the

97
00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:33,640
film yeah I actually like this movie and I hated Happy New Year I could not even

98
00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:38,600
sit through Happy New Year. Did you notice it's the same plot though? Did you notice it's the exact same plot?

99
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:42,600
like literally they have an event in October then they have their final

100
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:47,400
event in New Year and they rent the room that's right above the vault where they

101
00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:52,080
go in and steal the money it's literally the end. At least it's more real right? It's not cartoon like

102
00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:56,080
or parody like the way that Happy New Year was. That's what like really threw me off.

103
00:09:56,080 --> 00:10:00,080
Is this what I'm hearing is currently? It's not cartoony?

104
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:06,080
It's probably the motion. Okay the guy did stand on the bike with nothing else at one point but still.

105
00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:12,080
The boat jump was the best. Yeah when you fight a fire with water and the boat.

106
00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:17,080
Oh my gosh he holds the gun and he's just burning in flames. Yeah that was pretty good too.

107
00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:21,580
I like doom I like again I like Fast and Furious I like doom I think it's better

108
00:10:21,580 --> 00:10:27,580
than Happy New Year for sure. Yeah way better. It is better than Happy New Year but

109
00:10:27,580 --> 00:10:33,580
clearly Happy New Year like ripped off this movie because again yeah like they stay in a room above the vault.

110
00:10:33,580 --> 00:10:37,580
One of the guys pretends to be drunk in a major scene.

111
00:10:37,580 --> 00:10:46,580
It's all about like a big theft at the end and yeah like Killy did say like it is about Happy New Year

112
00:10:46,580 --> 00:10:52,580
when he didn't want us to watch Happy New Year and instead it was mentioned at least many times.

113
00:10:52,580 --> 00:10:58,080
Well Happy New Year didn't mention Happy New Year at all. I'll say that I think there's more Happy New Year

114
00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:05,080
involved with doom than Happy New Year the movie they mention it way more and it is more pivotal than the movie Happy New Year.

115
00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:10,580
Yeah so you saw it this morning you did come over Winnie last time and then left and watched the

116
00:11:10,580 --> 00:11:16,080
morning. Yeah I watched the remaining half this morning. I think so one thing that stuck to my mind while watching it was

117
00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:25,580
Killy saying that John Abraham the villain was actually more charming and Abhishek was like not that doofus.

118
00:11:25,580 --> 00:11:34,580
But I didn't really get that vibe while watching it. I really like the protagonist like Jai Dixit played by Abhishek Bachchan.

119
00:11:34,580 --> 00:11:42,580
Wow a very bold take on who has never heard this take. Okay a very controversial bold take.

120
00:11:42,580 --> 00:11:49,580
I also didn't think Abhishek was a good actor you know he's a son of Amitabh Bachchan like the father of Bollywood or whatever.

121
00:11:49,580 --> 00:11:56,580
So I really just assumed he just made it to acting because of nepotism. But this movie he actually gave like he actually delivered emotions,

122
00:11:56,580 --> 00:12:04,580
a range as well he goes from serious to funny and I think most of like his character was nice and John I remember watching this when I was young

123
00:12:04,580 --> 00:12:09,580
and just like thinking John Abraham was the sexiest thing ever. He really is objectively right. He's fucking sexy.

124
00:12:09,580 --> 00:12:17,580
But I feel like the movie was trying to play into that way too much that it just took away from the appeal. Maybe because I'm also older now.

125
00:12:17,580 --> 00:12:20,580
You want a stable cop boyfriend.

126
00:12:20,580 --> 00:12:22,580
I prefer the dad kind of like yeah stable cop boyfriend.

127
00:12:22,580 --> 00:12:24,580
When he was younger she wanted John.

128
00:12:24,580 --> 00:12:29,580
She wants the bad guy now she's like well he has a uniform he has like a stable job.

129
00:12:29,580 --> 00:12:37,580
Every scene of John is just like focusing on his looks or him saying something very short but very mysterious and it's just trying too hard.

130
00:12:37,580 --> 00:12:43,580
Like he already looks good. You don't have to try that hard. So I blame that on like the writing or the costume team.

131
00:12:43,580 --> 00:12:51,580
But you say you like Abhishek. Like what about his personality because he's kind of an asshole to everyone.

132
00:12:51,580 --> 00:12:55,580
Well I like that he seems to be an asshole but he's a softy on the inside.

133
00:12:55,580 --> 00:12:56,580
How?

134
00:12:56,580 --> 00:12:59,580
I mean his wife takes his wallet from him in the beginning.

135
00:12:59,580 --> 00:13:00,580
He's a pretentious fuck.

136
00:13:00,580 --> 00:13:09,580
He's beating up like just a street side like bike repair man just because he's a man on a mission.

137
00:13:09,580 --> 00:13:12,580
Just because he deals with like stolen bikes or something.

138
00:13:12,580 --> 00:13:14,580
He's being very pragmatic now as an adult.

139
00:13:14,580 --> 00:13:17,580
He's bringing into police station and beat the shit out of him.

140
00:13:17,580 --> 00:13:22,580
You want me to side with the guy who's trying to commit a huge like a huge robbery.

141
00:13:22,580 --> 00:13:31,580
So here's my take like no one in the history of robbery or stealing gave a single flying fuck about bank robbery.

142
00:13:31,580 --> 00:13:42,580
This is the other thing right because he talks about like I'm on the side of good and goodness is always two steps ahead of evil and they're robbing a casino in Goa at a resort.

143
00:13:42,580 --> 00:13:51,580
I don't know how much like the cop is protecting anyone and how much like the John the bad guy is like hurting anyone.

144
00:13:51,580 --> 00:13:58,580
Like I don't really care that much but I will say this is the first movie where the protagonist is darker than the antagonist.

145
00:13:58,580 --> 00:14:00,580
Well that's because he's Amitabh Bachchan's son.

146
00:14:00,580 --> 00:14:01,580
Right.

147
00:14:01,580 --> 00:14:02,580
He gets away with it.

148
00:14:02,580 --> 00:14:04,580
Darker as in like skin color or the soul.

149
00:14:04,580 --> 00:14:06,580
The soul.

150
00:14:06,580 --> 00:14:08,580
Wow.

151
00:14:08,580 --> 00:14:09,580
How do you do that?

152
00:14:09,580 --> 00:14:10,580
I really thought so.

153
00:14:10,580 --> 00:14:13,580
But the good guy the good guy cop has darker skin than the bad guy.

154
00:14:13,580 --> 00:14:17,580
That's the first time I've ever seen this in any Indian film.

155
00:14:17,580 --> 00:14:18,580
Good observation Adam.

156
00:14:18,580 --> 00:14:19,580
Because he's Amitabh's son.

157
00:14:19,580 --> 00:14:24,580
Sure but that is worth noting that that's why I think also everyone was like all in on the villain.

158
00:14:24,580 --> 00:14:25,580
You know.

159
00:14:25,580 --> 00:14:26,580
No no way.

160
00:14:26,580 --> 00:14:34,580
It's also like the charm of the bad guy because he so to be honest like I've seen enough films of both of these guys.

161
00:14:34,580 --> 00:14:36,580
Objectively.

162
00:14:36,580 --> 00:14:37,580
Objectively.

163
00:14:37,580 --> 00:14:41,580
Abhishek Bachchan is a better actor than John Abraham.

164
00:14:41,580 --> 00:14:48,580
But the character in Dhoom John Abraham had like way more fan than Abhishek Bachchan because he had that.

165
00:14:48,580 --> 00:14:54,580
Karishma of riding the motorbike and doing those flips and stuff.

166
00:14:54,580 --> 00:14:56,580
But you know who stood out the most?

167
00:14:56,580 --> 00:14:57,580
Ali.

168
00:14:57,580 --> 00:14:59,580
I think I love him most.

169
00:14:59,580 --> 00:15:00,580
His character.

170
00:15:00,580 --> 00:15:01,580
His acting.

171
00:15:01,580 --> 00:15:05,580
He has the most controversial take on Dhoom.

172
00:15:05,580 --> 00:15:10,580
I really wish you watched this with us because all of your opinions are opposite of ours.

173
00:15:10,580 --> 00:15:12,580
Maybe this is a good thing about watching it.

174
00:15:12,580 --> 00:15:13,580
I love it.

175
00:15:13,580 --> 00:15:15,580
I disagree with you a lot.

176
00:15:15,580 --> 00:15:16,580
Tell us about Ali.

177
00:15:16,580 --> 00:15:17,580
Tell us about Ali.

178
00:15:17,580 --> 00:15:18,580
Why do you like him?

179
00:15:18,580 --> 00:15:20,580
Because this is his goofy character.

180
00:15:20,580 --> 00:15:22,580
Like you know he's like a golden retriever.

181
00:15:22,580 --> 00:15:27,580
He is harmless and he's like so energetic and just babbles non-stop.

182
00:15:27,580 --> 00:15:34,580
Okay no he's obviously a thief in the beginning but like the way he acts the way he kind of like gets on the good side.

183
00:15:34,580 --> 00:15:36,580
He's just like a mechanic asshole.

184
00:15:36,580 --> 00:15:40,580
He's like stolen by motorcycle.

185
00:15:40,580 --> 00:15:42,580
It's still against the law.

186
00:15:42,580 --> 00:15:43,580
It's still against the law.

187
00:15:43,580 --> 00:15:44,580
What he's doing.

188
00:15:44,580 --> 00:15:53,580
So he's always like anti-police and then he meets Abhishek and you see them like slowly develop that cop buddy vibe.

189
00:15:53,580 --> 00:15:54,580
I don't know about that.

190
00:15:54,580 --> 00:15:55,580
I don't know.

191
00:15:55,580 --> 00:15:56,580
He has a big character development.

192
00:15:56,580 --> 00:15:58,580
He has the most character development throughout the film.

193
00:15:58,580 --> 00:15:59,580
I don't know about that either.

194
00:15:59,580 --> 00:16:00,580
I did like his.

195
00:16:00,580 --> 00:16:01,580
He does.

196
00:16:01,580 --> 00:16:02,580
He does.

197
00:16:02,580 --> 00:16:03,580
He changes a lot.

198
00:16:03,580 --> 00:16:04,580
I like his romantic song in the rain.

199
00:16:04,580 --> 00:16:05,580
I like that.

200
00:16:05,580 --> 00:16:08,580
I think his romantic song in the rain is the second best song in the movie.

201
00:16:08,580 --> 00:16:11,580
Oh yeah that was awesome.

202
00:16:11,580 --> 00:16:13,580
I think it's catchy.

203
00:16:13,580 --> 00:16:14,580
And now Winnie.

204
00:16:14,580 --> 00:16:17,580
Mary fuck kill those three actors.

205
00:16:17,580 --> 00:16:18,580
Oh no.

206
00:16:18,580 --> 00:16:21,580
Abhishek, John and Ali.

207
00:16:21,580 --> 00:16:23,580
That's not even that difficult.

208
00:16:23,580 --> 00:16:24,580
Then tell me.

209
00:16:24,580 --> 00:16:26,580
I mean let's leave fuck John Abraham.

210
00:16:26,580 --> 00:16:27,580
Mary.

211
00:16:27,580 --> 00:16:31,580
I think I'm Mary Abhishek because he has a good job and yeah I'd have to kill Ali.

212
00:16:31,580 --> 00:16:32,580
Okay.

213
00:16:32,580 --> 00:16:33,580
Oh there you go.

214
00:16:33,580 --> 00:16:34,580
God.

215
00:16:34,580 --> 00:16:35,580
Maybe in an alternate.

216
00:16:35,580 --> 00:16:38,580
From the person who has the biggest heart of change.

217
00:16:38,580 --> 00:16:40,580
Biggest change of heart gets killed.

218
00:16:40,580 --> 00:16:43,580
I think it'd be close at either Mary Abhishek or Ali.

219
00:16:43,580 --> 00:16:44,580
I can't really decide.

220
00:16:44,580 --> 00:16:45,580
One of them.

221
00:16:45,580 --> 00:16:48,580
It depends on part two and part three how they are.

222
00:16:48,580 --> 00:16:49,580
They go become worse.

223
00:16:49,580 --> 00:16:55,580
I think I think like what we thought of the characters was the generic general consensus

224
00:16:55,580 --> 00:17:01,580
from the audience and the DOOM franchise kind of played on that so much that they focused

225
00:17:01,580 --> 00:17:05,580
on the antagonists from now on the sequels.

226
00:17:05,580 --> 00:17:11,580
Yeah like like like they totally dropped the ball on Ali at some point.

227
00:17:11,580 --> 00:17:19,580
It's kind of Ali is there because Ali it's Ali's brother's direction and father's production

228
00:17:19,580 --> 00:17:20,580
house.

229
00:17:20,580 --> 00:17:21,580
Uday Chopra.

230
00:17:21,580 --> 00:17:22,580
Yeah Uday Chopra.

231
00:17:22,580 --> 00:17:26,580
Yes Chopra films is the production house and I think Aditya Chopra his brother is a director

232
00:17:26,580 --> 00:17:28,580
writer director of this film.

233
00:17:28,580 --> 00:17:29,580
So yeah.

234
00:17:29,580 --> 00:17:32,580
And yeah I mean I think he was like fine whatever.

235
00:17:32,580 --> 00:17:34,580
I don't think he was a strong actor.

236
00:17:34,580 --> 00:17:35,580
He was insufferable.

237
00:17:35,580 --> 00:17:38,580
I don't think he was super good looking.

238
00:17:38,580 --> 00:17:43,580
And yeah him and the protagonist together just didn't have much charisma.

239
00:17:43,580 --> 00:17:46,580
Neither did neither did John.

240
00:17:46,580 --> 00:17:49,580
Like he just you know is like sexy looking.

241
00:17:49,580 --> 00:17:54,580
But yeah I just think John the protagonist right.

242
00:17:54,580 --> 00:17:59,580
No no sorry Abhishek the protagonist was just kind of boring and kind of mean to everyone

243
00:17:59,580 --> 00:18:03,580
and like unnecessarily mean to Ali.

244
00:18:03,580 --> 00:18:06,580
I did like Ali thanking his mom all the time.

245
00:18:06,580 --> 00:18:07,580
It's raining.

246
00:18:07,580 --> 00:18:08,580
Thank you mommy.

247
00:18:08,580 --> 00:18:09,580
And I'm really struggling.

248
00:18:09,580 --> 00:18:16,580
So Amitabh Bachchan was like kind of popular in Bollywood as an angry young man role.

249
00:18:16,580 --> 00:18:22,580
Yeah like which kind of reflects like the rage antics of Indian men.

250
00:18:22,580 --> 00:18:23,580
OK.

251
00:18:23,580 --> 00:18:29,580
But but I think that's that's what they kind of the brief was for Abhishek's character

252
00:18:29,580 --> 00:18:32,580
that he is like an angry young police.

253
00:18:32,580 --> 00:18:33,580
He was he was always pissed.

254
00:18:33,580 --> 00:18:40,580
He's like eyebrows are always like constricted and like he was looking always pissed at people

255
00:18:40,580 --> 00:18:43,580
only apart from his wife.

256
00:18:43,580 --> 00:18:46,580
Yeah because his wife was looking pissed at him.

257
00:18:46,580 --> 00:18:48,580
Weird dynamics.

258
00:18:48,580 --> 00:18:51,580
And I got to say this about the women in the movie.

259
00:18:51,580 --> 00:18:52,580
We talked about this too.

260
00:18:52,580 --> 00:18:54,580
I really don't like their makeup at this time.

261
00:18:54,580 --> 00:18:55,580
Oh it's too early to that.

262
00:18:55,580 --> 00:18:56,580
I don't like it.

263
00:18:56,580 --> 00:18:57,580
I hate it.

264
00:18:57,580 --> 00:18:58,580
The thin eyebrows.

265
00:18:58,580 --> 00:19:00,580
Yeah the thin eyebrows is my biggest turn off.

266
00:19:00,580 --> 00:19:02,580
I do not like pencil eyebrows.

267
00:19:02,580 --> 00:19:10,580
I also don't like thin eyebrows but but the makeup apart from thin eyebrows is also horrendous.

268
00:19:10,580 --> 00:19:11,580
Yeah.

269
00:19:11,580 --> 00:19:12,580
Excessive lip gloss.

270
00:19:12,580 --> 00:19:13,580
The eyes.

271
00:19:13,580 --> 00:19:15,580
The eye shadow is so strong.

272
00:19:15,580 --> 00:19:17,580
Yeah it doesn't just blend.

273
00:19:17,580 --> 00:19:18,580
Nothing is blending.

274
00:19:18,580 --> 00:19:19,580
Nothing is.

275
00:19:19,580 --> 00:19:21,580
Beauty Blender doesn't exist back then Kili.

276
00:19:21,580 --> 00:19:22,580
Is that a new technology?

277
00:19:22,580 --> 00:19:23,580
I don't know.

278
00:19:23,580 --> 00:19:24,580
I think so.

279
00:19:24,580 --> 00:19:25,580
But yeah Beauty Blender just became a thing.

280
00:19:25,580 --> 00:19:28,580
Did you ever like do like pencil thin eyebrows or anything?

281
00:19:28,580 --> 00:19:31,580
I'm Indian ethically like no my eyebrows.

282
00:19:31,580 --> 00:19:32,580
But so are they.

283
00:19:32,580 --> 00:19:34,580
I have to get it threaded.

284
00:19:34,580 --> 00:19:35,580
Okay yeah maybe but.

285
00:19:35,580 --> 00:19:38,580
I was trying to find so the actress name is Rinne Sen.

286
00:19:38,580 --> 00:19:42,580
I was trying to find a photo of her without thin eyebrows when she was young.

287
00:19:42,580 --> 00:19:46,580
I couldn't find only found like one without thin eyebrows when she grew older.

288
00:19:46,580 --> 00:19:48,580
So she was always thinning her eyebrows.

289
00:19:48,580 --> 00:19:49,580
That sucks.

290
00:19:49,580 --> 00:19:50,580
Yeah.

291
00:19:50,580 --> 00:19:51,580
I mean we have to thread and wax now.

292
00:19:51,580 --> 00:19:56,580
But yeah like when I was younger when I was 13 or something I would definitely wax it much thinner than I keep it now.

293
00:19:56,580 --> 00:19:58,580
Because you have to go with the trends.

294
00:19:58,580 --> 00:20:01,580
It was thin back then because of Kardashians thick eyebrows are back in.

295
00:20:01,580 --> 00:20:06,580
Thank God like Jennifer Connelly I think is one of the most attractive actresses.

296
00:20:06,580 --> 00:20:10,580
And she has the best eyebrows and they're like thick and she's always had it like that.

297
00:20:10,580 --> 00:20:11,580
It's always been great.

298
00:20:11,580 --> 00:20:17,580
The thin eyebrows aren't like the eye shadow like the blue face makeup.

299
00:20:17,580 --> 00:20:23,580
Like I just they the women in this film just weren't I don't like that 2000s.

300
00:20:23,580 --> 00:20:27,580
Adam gives in no to the women in this film.

301
00:20:27,580 --> 00:20:28,580
So let's get into the plot.

302
00:20:28,580 --> 00:20:34,580
I disagree with Rinne and I just have to bring it on.

303
00:20:34,580 --> 00:20:35,580
Oh the Ali part.

304
00:20:35,580 --> 00:20:37,580
Yeah you seem to have strong opinions.

305
00:20:37,580 --> 00:20:38,580
I don't like the stoic hero.

306
00:20:38,580 --> 00:20:40,580
I don't I think they're bland.

307
00:20:40,580 --> 00:20:41,580
I think they're boring.

308
00:20:41,580 --> 00:20:42,580
No Ali is not the stoic hero.

309
00:20:42,580 --> 00:20:43,580
I'm talking about Abhishek's character.

310
00:20:43,580 --> 00:20:44,580
Yeah okay yeah.

311
00:20:44,580 --> 00:20:51,580
He's like the stoic hero and like like Keely said John Abraham is quite the stud.

312
00:20:51,580 --> 00:20:53,580
So I was super mad at how dumb the movie was.

313
00:20:53,580 --> 00:21:03,580
I went back to show my partner how dumb it was and the first thing she said when she saw John Abraham was like oh why does he look so much better than than the hero.

314
00:21:03,580 --> 00:21:05,580
Yeah like that.

315
00:21:05,580 --> 00:21:10,580
That was I mean I don't think anybody can test that like obviously John is way better than Abhishek.

316
00:21:10,580 --> 00:21:12,580
That's what I said yeah.

317
00:21:12,580 --> 00:21:14,580
But like I just personally I just don't like any of the characters.

318
00:21:14,580 --> 00:21:16,580
I just found them insufferable.

319
00:21:16,580 --> 00:21:19,580
I found them they make like the dumbest decisions.

320
00:21:19,580 --> 00:21:31,580
Like Ali was just like tying up his love interest and forcing her to like marry him and she just falls for him because he's literally the last guy there.

321
00:21:31,580 --> 00:21:35,580
Plot reasons.

322
00:21:35,580 --> 00:21:37,580
Yeah okay so the story.

323
00:21:37,580 --> 00:21:38,580
You disagree with me?

324
00:21:38,580 --> 00:21:42,580
Few moments back like she was with the she is with the team.

325
00:21:42,580 --> 00:21:44,580
Like why is she falling in love with Ali?

326
00:21:44,580 --> 00:21:45,580
For no reason.

327
00:21:45,580 --> 00:21:46,580
Just because she's a woman?

328
00:21:46,580 --> 00:21:50,580
One thing I was not sure about this is the same woman that had the dance scene in the rain with him.

329
00:21:50,580 --> 00:21:51,580
Yeah.

330
00:21:51,580 --> 00:21:53,580
Yeah so they obviously had like.

331
00:21:53,580 --> 00:21:55,580
No but she was praying for a while.

332
00:21:55,580 --> 00:21:57,580
It was a part of jobs.

333
00:21:57,580 --> 00:22:00,580
So the whole twist was that it was all a distraction.

334
00:22:00,580 --> 00:22:02,580
It's like what Abhishek says.

335
00:22:02,580 --> 00:22:05,580
Good is always two steps ahead of evil.

336
00:22:05,580 --> 00:22:08,580
Love is always two steps ahead of hatred.

337
00:22:08,580 --> 00:22:10,580
This is like the now you see me oceans.

338
00:22:10,580 --> 00:22:11,580
Oceans like.

339
00:22:11,580 --> 00:22:14,580
But what I said love is always two steps ahead of hatred.

340
00:22:14,580 --> 00:22:18,580
Like love comes first and then comes hatred.

341
00:22:18,580 --> 00:22:21,580
What is her interest in Ali?

342
00:22:21,580 --> 00:22:23,580
He's a buffoon that can't do anything.

343
00:22:23,580 --> 00:22:26,580
He can dance and he can sing and he's a golden retriever.

344
00:22:26,580 --> 00:22:28,580
He gives such a warm cozy feeling.

345
00:22:28,580 --> 00:22:31,580
He can repair cars like just dancing.

346
00:22:31,580 --> 00:22:36,580
And he wins every bike race and he can stand on the bike without holding on to anything just on his two legs.

347
00:22:36,580 --> 00:22:37,580
You not see that?

348
00:22:37,580 --> 00:22:40,580
Okay Kaley when a woman wants a car fix.

349
00:22:40,580 --> 00:22:42,580
You just give him the old dance number.

350
00:22:42,580 --> 00:22:43,580
Yeah I'll do that.

351
00:22:43,580 --> 00:22:45,580
Would you date Ali?

352
00:22:45,580 --> 00:22:48,580
Adam's like when he really likes Ali would you date him?

353
00:22:48,580 --> 00:22:49,580
Would you though?

354
00:22:49,580 --> 00:22:50,580
Like the character?

355
00:22:50,580 --> 00:22:51,580
Yes the character.

356
00:22:51,580 --> 00:22:53,580
No he's just like a little.

357
00:22:53,580 --> 00:22:54,580
Why?

358
00:22:54,580 --> 00:22:57,580
I might I don't know.

359
00:22:57,580 --> 00:22:58,580
Really?

360
00:22:58,580 --> 00:23:00,580
We'd have to exist in real life for me to answer that.

361
00:23:00,580 --> 00:23:03,580
He's just a nice endearing character.

362
00:23:03,580 --> 00:23:05,580
That's the term I use to describe him endearing.

363
00:23:05,580 --> 00:23:06,580
He is memorable.

364
00:23:06,580 --> 00:23:07,580
Yeah.

365
00:23:07,580 --> 00:23:11,580
And he is more memorable than the protagonist.

366
00:23:11,580 --> 00:23:13,580
Everyone is more memorable than Abhishek.

367
00:23:13,580 --> 00:23:17,580
But actually even like reception wise in terms of critical reviews.

368
00:23:17,580 --> 00:23:20,580
I think Ali received the most praise for his acting.

369
00:23:20,580 --> 00:23:22,580
He was like the standout star.

370
00:23:22,580 --> 00:23:25,580
Abhishek and John of course but like people praise him a lot.

371
00:23:25,580 --> 00:23:28,580
Also spoiler.

372
00:23:28,580 --> 00:23:30,580
Ali never gets a girl.

373
00:23:30,580 --> 00:23:32,580
He does in the end.

374
00:23:32,580 --> 00:23:35,580
Not any other not sequels never.

375
00:23:35,580 --> 00:23:36,580
Oh really?

376
00:23:36,580 --> 00:23:37,580
Oh really?

377
00:23:37,580 --> 00:23:38,580
Oh no that's a big spoiler.

378
00:23:38,580 --> 00:23:39,580
That is a big spoiler.

379
00:23:39,580 --> 00:23:40,580
Why not?

380
00:23:40,580 --> 00:23:42,580
Alright in that case I change my.

381
00:23:42,580 --> 00:23:44,580
Because of your question.

382
00:23:44,580 --> 00:23:46,580
In that case I change my answer.

383
00:23:46,580 --> 00:23:48,580
I will date Ali.

384
00:23:48,580 --> 00:23:51,580
You just like dating people you feel sorry for.

385
00:23:51,580 --> 00:23:53,580
Oh call that on the podcast.

386
00:23:53,580 --> 00:23:56,580
That is very clearly.

387
00:23:56,580 --> 00:23:57,580
Oh no one else is dating.

388
00:23:57,580 --> 00:23:58,580
He's lonely.

389
00:23:58,580 --> 00:23:59,580
I'll do it.

390
00:23:59,580 --> 00:24:00,580
I'll bite the bullet.

391
00:24:00,580 --> 00:24:02,580
He's undateable to everyone else.

392
00:24:02,580 --> 00:24:04,580
I'm sure I'll do it.

393
00:24:04,580 --> 00:24:06,580
Alright let's go back to the plot shall we?

394
00:24:06,580 --> 00:24:07,580
Alright.

395
00:24:07,580 --> 00:24:11,580
Okay so we have Abhishek's character.

396
00:24:11,580 --> 00:24:16,580
He's like this assistant deputy police commissioner type of guy.

397
00:24:16,580 --> 00:24:18,580
Assistant commissioner of police.

398
00:24:18,580 --> 00:24:23,580
Yeah and has the nicest of the bungalow in Mumbai with that salary whatever.

399
00:24:23,580 --> 00:24:26,580
Yeah an amazing house and amazing office.

400
00:24:26,580 --> 00:24:30,580
And straight off the bat we learn that he's like you know he plays the invincible hero trope.

401
00:24:30,580 --> 00:24:32,580
Nothing he's like good at fighting.

402
00:24:32,580 --> 00:24:34,580
He's good at crime solving.

403
00:24:34,580 --> 00:24:37,580
He has a beautiful wife.

404
00:24:37,580 --> 00:24:38,580
Yeah.

405
00:24:38,580 --> 00:24:40,580
She's pretty hot.

406
00:24:40,580 --> 00:24:50,580
We get like a quick dance like a lengthy dance number right from the get go to that establishes their relationship where he like hoses her down.

407
00:24:50,580 --> 00:24:54,580
They have a backyard with Astro turf.

408
00:24:54,580 --> 00:25:02,580
And then he there in the backyard dancing about loving each other and he whips out a hose and just sprays her down and she loves it.

409
00:25:02,580 --> 00:25:07,580
And I would get so mad if anyone sprayed me with water like that.

410
00:25:07,580 --> 00:25:11,580
She goes through a lot of like spicy outfits.

411
00:25:11,580 --> 00:25:13,580
Sex sells I guess.

412
00:25:13,580 --> 00:25:25,580
Yeah and also if you notice when that song begins they're only looking at her body for most of it and her head doesn't come in until like they start singing like he's just kind of staring at her body neck down.

413
00:25:25,580 --> 00:25:27,580
It was very objectifying.

414
00:25:27,580 --> 00:25:28,580
Yeah.

415
00:25:28,580 --> 00:25:35,580
I think that was that was a time when in both of them that like it has been just like forever.

416
00:25:35,580 --> 00:25:38,580
I just like action movie always includes sexy scenes.

417
00:25:38,580 --> 00:25:39,580
Yeah.

418
00:25:39,580 --> 00:25:45,580
It's like like how transformer had what's the name?

419
00:25:45,580 --> 00:25:46,580
The actress.

420
00:25:46,580 --> 00:25:48,580
The very sexy and hot lady.

421
00:25:48,580 --> 00:25:49,580
Megan Fox.

422
00:25:49,580 --> 00:25:50,580
Yeah.

423
00:25:50,580 --> 00:25:51,580
Yeah.

424
00:25:51,580 --> 00:25:52,580
Yeah.

425
00:25:52,580 --> 00:25:58,580
But anyway and she speaks very bad Bengali like with a very weird accent something I would never.

426
00:25:58,580 --> 00:25:59,580
Yeah.

427
00:25:59,580 --> 00:26:01,580
You guys wouldn't pick up because yeah of course.

428
00:26:01,580 --> 00:26:05,580
But yeah she's speaking Bengali with a very weird accent.

429
00:26:05,580 --> 00:26:06,580
Yeah.

430
00:26:06,580 --> 00:26:07,580
So yeah.

431
00:26:07,580 --> 00:26:10,580
I just want to say I want to eat her carrot souffle.

432
00:26:10,580 --> 00:26:15,580
So what is this carrot souffle?

433
00:26:15,580 --> 00:26:21,580
It's kind of it's kind of reduced milk and ghee and ghee or butter.

434
00:26:21,580 --> 00:26:29,580
Like reduced milk and ghee and butter and the carrots are just like soaking all them all of that in and it's a dessert.

435
00:26:29,580 --> 00:26:30,580
What do you call it in Bengali?

436
00:26:30,580 --> 00:26:31,580
It's beautiful.

437
00:26:31,580 --> 00:26:32,580
Gajar ka halwa.

438
00:26:32,580 --> 00:26:33,580
It's a halwa.

439
00:26:33,580 --> 00:26:34,580
Gajar halwa.

440
00:26:34,580 --> 00:26:36,580
And Gajar ka means like off carrot.

441
00:26:36,580 --> 00:26:37,580
Like halwa off carrot.

442
00:26:37,580 --> 00:26:38,580
I want to try it out.

443
00:26:38,580 --> 00:26:39,580
I can't imagine.

444
00:26:39,580 --> 00:26:40,580
I want to eat that so bad.

445
00:26:40,580 --> 00:26:42,580
But it's not it's nothing like a souffle.

446
00:26:42,580 --> 00:26:43,580
I don't know why they translated that.

447
00:26:43,580 --> 00:26:44,580
What is a souffle?

448
00:26:44,580 --> 00:26:45,580
I don't know.

449
00:26:45,580 --> 00:26:48,580
It's not like it's more like a pudding right.

450
00:26:48,580 --> 00:26:49,580
What is a souffle?

451
00:26:49,580 --> 00:26:51,580
It's like a puff pudding.

452
00:26:51,580 --> 00:26:52,580
Souffle is like pudding.

453
00:26:52,580 --> 00:26:55,580
Yeah it's like a puffy pudding.

454
00:26:55,580 --> 00:26:56,580
Oh okay.

455
00:26:56,580 --> 00:26:57,580
No.

456
00:26:57,580 --> 00:27:01,580
This is like more of like a kheer.

457
00:27:01,580 --> 00:27:03,580
Like it's a mince.

458
00:27:03,580 --> 00:27:13,580
It's almost minced carrot like a very thinly sliced carrot mushed together and like bound together with creamy goodness.

459
00:27:13,580 --> 00:27:14,580
And buttery goodness.

460
00:27:14,580 --> 00:27:16,580
Can you make it?

461
00:27:16,580 --> 00:27:17,580
I learned how to make it.

462
00:27:17,580 --> 00:27:20,580
I never made it but it looked very easy to make.

463
00:27:20,580 --> 00:27:21,580
Can you do it?

464
00:27:21,580 --> 00:27:22,580
Yeah.

465
00:27:22,580 --> 00:27:23,580
Yeah.

466
00:27:23,580 --> 00:27:24,580
Sure.

467
00:27:24,580 --> 00:27:25,580
Alright.

468
00:27:25,580 --> 00:27:29,580
Next episode we're gonna taste Kelly's Carrot Souffle and report back to you.

469
00:27:29,580 --> 00:27:30,580
Yes.

470
00:27:30,580 --> 00:27:32,580
And then half of us never come back.

471
00:27:32,580 --> 00:27:35,580
We're gonna be eating while we do the next podcast.

472
00:27:35,580 --> 00:27:36,580
Yep.

473
00:27:36,580 --> 00:27:39,580
That looks so good and they kept talking about it.

474
00:27:39,580 --> 00:27:41,580
I love carrots.

475
00:27:41,580 --> 00:27:42,580
I think carrots are delicious.

476
00:27:42,580 --> 00:27:45,580
And carrot cake is like my favorite cake.

477
00:27:45,580 --> 00:27:48,580
And when they're talking about carrot souffle I've never heard of it before.

478
00:27:48,580 --> 00:27:49,580
Oh it sounds so good.

479
00:27:49,580 --> 00:27:51,580
It doesn't have any carrot flavor.

480
00:27:51,580 --> 00:27:52,580
Sorry.

481
00:27:52,580 --> 00:27:54,580
It has the texture though.

482
00:27:54,580 --> 00:27:55,580
Yeah it has the texture.

483
00:27:55,580 --> 00:27:56,580
It has the texture of carrot.

484
00:27:56,580 --> 00:27:57,580
No not texture.

485
00:27:57,580 --> 00:27:58,580
It gets like a little bit.

486
00:27:58,580 --> 00:27:59,580
Like the crunch.

487
00:27:59,580 --> 00:28:01,580
Not the crunchiness because the crunchiness goes away.

488
00:28:01,580 --> 00:28:03,580
You bite the carrots though.

489
00:28:03,580 --> 00:28:05,580
Yeah you bite the carrots but it's...

490
00:28:05,580 --> 00:28:06,580
You bite the carrots.

491
00:28:06,580 --> 00:28:10,580
No you fucking snorted.

492
00:28:10,580 --> 00:28:15,580
So anyway she makes really good carrots souffle and...

493
00:28:15,580 --> 00:28:16,580
Wait.

494
00:28:16,580 --> 00:28:17,580
Yeah.

495
00:28:17,580 --> 00:28:18,580
So what happens?

496
00:28:18,580 --> 00:28:19,580
So yeah.

497
00:28:19,580 --> 00:28:24,580
So in the midst of this whole movie there's like a motorcycle gang.

498
00:28:24,580 --> 00:28:26,580
They like to do heists.

499
00:28:26,580 --> 00:28:28,580
I don't know for whatever reason.

500
00:28:28,580 --> 00:28:29,580
For money.

501
00:28:29,580 --> 00:28:30,580
For money.

502
00:28:30,580 --> 00:28:32,580
Because they're evil.

503
00:28:32,580 --> 00:28:35,580
And Abhishek's character is in charge of solving this crime.

504
00:28:35,580 --> 00:28:36,580
Like who's behind it.

505
00:28:36,580 --> 00:28:44,580
At first he finds out that all signs lead to this motorcycle whiz character.

506
00:28:44,580 --> 00:28:46,580
Who did the character?

507
00:28:46,580 --> 00:28:47,580
Ali.

508
00:28:47,580 --> 00:28:48,580
Ali.

509
00:28:48,580 --> 00:28:49,580
Who's like...

510
00:28:49,580 --> 00:28:50,580
He has like this hype.

511
00:28:50,580 --> 00:28:53,580
He has like a bunch of bros who hype him up.

512
00:28:53,580 --> 00:28:57,580
And like he's like a star motorcycle racer.

513
00:28:57,580 --> 00:29:00,580
Yeah they rig racing and he races his motorcycle.

514
00:29:00,580 --> 00:29:01,580
Yes.

515
00:29:01,580 --> 00:29:08,580
And also he has this side quest where he needs to find the girl of his dreams.

516
00:29:08,580 --> 00:29:10,580
He really wants to have a family.

517
00:29:10,580 --> 00:29:11,580
He wants to have a family.

518
00:29:11,580 --> 00:29:12,580
He's not horny.

519
00:29:12,580 --> 00:29:14,580
He like literally wants like a family.

520
00:29:14,580 --> 00:29:15,580
Yeah.

521
00:29:15,580 --> 00:29:16,580
He's horny for a family.

522
00:29:16,580 --> 00:29:19,580
I think he's horny but he thinks he wants a family.

523
00:29:19,580 --> 00:29:24,580
And so Ali's character is like the sidekick if you will for this movie.

524
00:29:24,580 --> 00:29:25,580
The comic relief.

525
00:29:25,580 --> 00:29:27,580
The comic relief.

526
00:29:27,580 --> 00:29:32,580
And Abhishek, initially Abhishek thinks that he's the guy behind all these hides.

527
00:29:32,580 --> 00:29:43,580
But then while interrogating Ali they find out that it was like a group of people who we later find out is led by this man.

528
00:29:43,580 --> 00:29:45,580
This good looking man I might add.

529
00:29:45,580 --> 00:29:46,580
Hmm Winnie.

530
00:29:46,580 --> 00:29:49,580
By John Abraham.

531
00:29:49,580 --> 00:29:51,580
And they all run a pizza place.

532
00:29:51,580 --> 00:29:55,580
Like they're employees at the pizza place.

533
00:29:55,580 --> 00:30:02,580
And I will add that they're like probably the most attractive pizza place employees.

534
00:30:02,580 --> 00:30:04,580
That pizza place would be so popular.

535
00:30:04,580 --> 00:30:05,580
I'd be at that pizza place every day.

536
00:30:05,580 --> 00:30:06,580
I'd be there every day for sure.

537
00:30:06,580 --> 00:30:10,580
People just are like lining up around the block to see these hot pizza dudes.

538
00:30:10,580 --> 00:30:16,580
Because like John is obviously the hottest but like the rest of the sidekick is also pretty good looking.

539
00:30:16,580 --> 00:30:21,580
And it's not just like you know like in other action movies where like they're just faceless henchmen.

540
00:30:21,580 --> 00:30:26,580
Like each of his cohorts they have like a lot of screen time.

541
00:30:26,580 --> 00:30:27,580
So they're all good looking.

542
00:30:27,580 --> 00:30:35,580
We get like there was one guy named Rohit or something like I think Doom fleshed out the characters in a way.

543
00:30:35,580 --> 00:30:38,580
Yeah Austin Powers is in the pizza shop.

544
00:30:38,580 --> 00:30:40,580
Austin Powers.

545
00:30:40,580 --> 00:30:41,580
What was the other one?

546
00:30:41,580 --> 00:30:43,580
Oh god I forgot the name.

547
00:30:43,580 --> 00:30:45,580
The one before Austin Powers.

548
00:30:45,580 --> 00:30:46,580
It's just a prince.

549
00:30:46,580 --> 00:30:47,580
It was a prince?

550
00:30:47,580 --> 00:30:48,580
Oh yeah it was a prince.

551
00:30:48,580 --> 00:30:58,580
But then I guess the whole movie is just them trying to like it's like catching a thief to catch a thief.

552
00:30:58,580 --> 00:31:02,580
Yeah it's cops and robbers and you know they're like stealing money.

553
00:31:02,580 --> 00:31:08,580
And we need to talk about the scene where he like trashes the car.

554
00:31:08,580 --> 00:31:14,580
Yeah so like one of his cohorts like brings in like this Toyota convertible.

555
00:31:14,580 --> 00:31:16,580
Wow Nicky knows the car model.

556
00:31:16,580 --> 00:31:17,580
Yeah pretty good.

557
00:31:17,580 --> 00:31:19,580
Toyota convertible and oh it was a Honda.

558
00:31:19,580 --> 00:31:20,580
Honda convertible.

559
00:31:20,580 --> 00:31:27,580
And like I don't know out of like John Abraham just wanted to show who was wearing the pants around.

560
00:31:27,580 --> 00:31:32,580
So like he drove the they all drove the car to this like huge cliff.

561
00:31:32,580 --> 00:31:40,580
And he just says like he tells us like his part his his his cohort was like with him right in the car.

562
00:31:40,580 --> 00:31:43,580
And then it's like you got it you have to jump now.

563
00:31:43,580 --> 00:31:52,580
And then the guy jumped and then as soon as and then as soon as he jumped he revs the car and then also exits a la GTA.

564
00:31:52,580 --> 00:31:55,580
And the car just like falls off the cliff.

565
00:31:55,580 --> 00:31:58,580
They jump out of the car the car falls in the ocean.

566
00:31:58,580 --> 00:32:04,580
In the ocean or something which is a foreshadowing of things to come.

567
00:32:04,580 --> 00:32:05,580
I guess.

568
00:32:05,580 --> 00:32:08,580
Yeah and he's like we have to be like the shadows.

569
00:32:08,580 --> 00:32:10,580
Like we can't be seen.

570
00:32:10,580 --> 00:32:11,580
We have to be distrared.

571
00:32:11,580 --> 00:32:12,580
We're thieves.

572
00:32:12,580 --> 00:32:14,580
We're waiters at a pizza place.

573
00:32:14,580 --> 00:32:15,580
Don't drive convertibles.

574
00:32:15,580 --> 00:32:20,580
And then literally everything he does after that is completely contradictory.

575
00:32:20,580 --> 00:32:24,580
He calls up the fucking police chief and is like hey what's up.

576
00:32:24,580 --> 00:32:25,580
This is my voice.

577
00:32:25,580 --> 00:32:27,580
I am going to challenge you.

578
00:32:27,580 --> 00:32:34,580
I'm going to be better at you and like do heist before you can catch me and I will tell you the location of the next heist.

579
00:32:34,580 --> 00:32:41,580
So he completely like immediately is not a shadow and just is directly telling the chief of police like where their next heist is.

580
00:32:41,580 --> 00:32:42,580
He's not being very good.

581
00:32:42,580 --> 00:32:53,580
And like there was even that one scene where he like the bad guys figure out that Abhishek was the one trying to catch them.

582
00:32:53,580 --> 00:32:59,580
And then we have the scene where like he calls he called John.

583
00:32:59,580 --> 00:33:00,580
John calls Abhishek's right.

584
00:33:00,580 --> 00:33:03,580
And then say we're going to hit this next place up.

585
00:33:03,580 --> 00:33:07,580
And then as soon as Abhishek gets there.

586
00:33:07,580 --> 00:33:10,580
What was the first person he bumps into a blind man.

587
00:33:10,580 --> 00:33:11,580
Wearing a wig.

588
00:33:11,580 --> 00:33:14,580
And it was like the dumbest thing ever.

589
00:33:14,580 --> 00:33:16,580
Like you wouldn't suspect a thing.

590
00:33:16,580 --> 00:33:20,580
But like just the way it was presented it was just it just come on.

591
00:33:20,580 --> 00:33:21,580
It's obvious.

592
00:33:21,580 --> 00:33:24,580
It's like no one looks like that.

593
00:33:24,580 --> 00:33:27,580
Why people usually don't approach you and are like help me.

594
00:33:27,580 --> 00:33:34,580
So while watching that I thought Abhishek knew that that was just kind of like you know like a little right.

595
00:33:34,580 --> 00:33:35,580
You would think he's smart.

596
00:33:35,580 --> 00:33:36,580
But he was so obvious.

597
00:33:36,580 --> 00:33:40,580
He's one of the dumbest ACPs I've seen on screen.

598
00:33:40,580 --> 00:33:48,580
You don't understand how he got his promotion because even when he's told the locations of the heist he fails and does not catch them.

599
00:33:48,580 --> 00:33:49,580
Yeah.

600
00:33:49,580 --> 00:33:55,580
Because yeah it was about the money and then yeah I don't want to keep on screaming at the screen like look at the money.

601
00:33:55,580 --> 00:34:01,580
If it's the money there after this just just just stare at the money that then you were safe.

602
00:34:01,580 --> 00:34:02,580
Right.

603
00:34:02,580 --> 00:34:14,580
The the John Abraham calls him up and he's like hey this is where the next heist is and it's a big musical number like the next heist is at some weird charity dance off thing.

604
00:34:14,580 --> 00:34:19,580
And Ali gets up on stage and he's dancing with everyone and Abhishek is in the crowd.

605
00:34:19,580 --> 00:34:29,580
So even though he knows that the heist is going to happen and he could call all his cop buddies he could surround the place you know maybe have higher security.

606
00:34:29,580 --> 00:34:37,580
He just stands in the crowd instead like a dipshit with all the other crowd members unable to do anything if a heist even occurred.

607
00:34:37,580 --> 00:34:45,580
And then when they're like hey guys we have all this money from that that we raised for the charity and it comes out the ground out of the stage and it's all empty.

608
00:34:45,580 --> 00:34:58,580
And then the bad guys kick down false speakers I guess and then like dump oil all over the ground light it all on fire and then just drive through the crowd.

609
00:34:58,580 --> 00:35:00,580
That was pretty cool. It was very cool.

610
00:35:00,580 --> 00:35:11,580
Yeah, but as a cop I feel like if you know there's a heist going on just go to where the money is and look at it the entire time and make sure no one takes it instead of being in the crowd.

611
00:35:11,580 --> 00:35:17,580
I don't think he's taking a preventive approach but like he was on fire and he still fought so give him some credit.

612
00:35:17,580 --> 00:35:27,580
But don't you think I mean I know cops usually are preventative and just shoot things later like he does in this film but like I just like if you're told where the heist is and you're like I'm just going to say it.

613
00:35:27,580 --> 00:35:31,580
You're like I'm just going to stand here and wait for it to happen and then shoot at the bike.

614
00:35:31,580 --> 00:35:37,580
I love how he just shoots down on people all the time.

615
00:35:37,580 --> 00:35:41,580
He like gets one hit. He gets one hit and then misses like.

616
00:35:41,580 --> 00:35:47,580
Oh yeah that was the final scene like he could target his hand and then he misses.

617
00:35:47,580 --> 00:35:48,580
That is true.

618
00:35:48,580 --> 00:35:51,580
Yeah, when he's like on the boat he like shoots the hand.

619
00:35:51,580 --> 00:35:54,580
So far, like, I don't know like with the handgun.

620
00:35:54,580 --> 00:35:58,580
And then he can't hit anyone else except when he wants Ali then he keeps shooting Ali.

621
00:35:58,580 --> 00:36:02,580
He's like come on Ali let's go come on Ali as he's like shooting at Ali.

622
00:36:02,580 --> 00:36:05,580
I think he became a better cop once he stepped down as a cop.

623
00:36:05,580 --> 00:36:06,580
Interesting.

624
00:36:06,580 --> 00:36:08,580
When he plays a drunk.

625
00:36:08,580 --> 00:36:13,580
Oh yeah that was the foreshadowing of Happy New Year.

626
00:36:13,580 --> 00:36:20,580
Right so Abhishek completely bungles the heist that he's told about and he's like I give up my badge.

627
00:36:20,580 --> 00:36:21,580
I'm out of here.

628
00:36:21,580 --> 00:36:22,580
Sorry.

629
00:36:22,580 --> 00:36:24,580
And then the team.

630
00:36:24,580 --> 00:36:26,580
Sorry what?

631
00:36:26,580 --> 00:36:29,580
We're talking about the heist at the Dune concert.

632
00:36:29,580 --> 00:36:32,580
No I'm talking about the musical performance that he bungles.

633
00:36:32,580 --> 00:36:34,580
So he then he quits.

634
00:36:34,580 --> 00:36:37,580
Yeah but then they also had like a falling out right?

635
00:36:37,580 --> 00:36:39,580
Yeah a huge fight that got recorded.

636
00:36:39,580 --> 00:36:41,580
Oh yeah so talk about that yeah.

637
00:36:41,580 --> 00:36:43,580
So he had a falling out with Ali.

638
00:36:43,580 --> 00:36:44,580
This is very important.

639
00:36:44,580 --> 00:36:45,580
Yeah.

640
00:36:45,580 --> 00:36:47,580
I swear to god this is important.

641
00:36:47,580 --> 00:36:49,580
The thing that really threw me off.

642
00:36:49,580 --> 00:36:51,580
So like yeah they bungled.

643
00:36:51,580 --> 00:36:53,580
They bungled up the heist right.

644
00:36:53,580 --> 00:37:10,580
And then like they just had a falling out and I guess we're supposed to see that you know every everybody caught movie there's there's going to be a well most of them will have like a moment where the two are two heroes will you know get into a fight and go their

645
00:37:10,580 --> 00:37:14,580
separate ways for a bit and then they'll team up for the climax.

646
00:37:14,580 --> 00:37:21,580
So while that was happening John Abraham gets this funny idea that okay they're broken up.

647
00:37:21,580 --> 00:37:24,580
So why don't I recruit Ali into our ranks.

648
00:37:24,580 --> 00:37:25,580
Right.

649
00:37:25,580 --> 00:37:34,580
They fight and then he's like I will bring Ali to join my team and help steal and that's I don't know any other mechanics even though I live in the underground.

650
00:37:34,580 --> 00:37:44,580
Yes. Right. And then that's when we find out that the girl that Ali was trying to get with is also on the bad guy scene like where did that come from.

651
00:37:44,580 --> 00:37:46,580
And it's also the one who sings do much.

652
00:37:46,580 --> 00:37:47,580
He's just everywhere.

653
00:37:47,580 --> 00:37:54,580
And this is the thing that's so prevalent in doom is that she explains that I do all this to distract you guys.

654
00:37:54,580 --> 00:37:59,580
They're always steps ahead of each other all the characters are always steps ahead of each other.

655
00:37:59,580 --> 00:38:00,580
Yeah, this is really important.

656
00:38:00,580 --> 00:38:02,580
Here is one thing.

657
00:38:02,580 --> 00:38:16,580
Later, I wish I kind of insinuates that like it was his ploy that he had like a fight with Ali so that kind of recruits him.

658
00:38:16,580 --> 00:38:17,580
But here's the thing.

659
00:38:17,580 --> 00:38:23,580
I mean, how do he how does he know just because he shot one of the members.

660
00:38:23,580 --> 00:38:34,580
He means he would recruit another member because during the whole heist there was no specific role of the gang members. They're all doing the same thing just running away with the money.

661
00:38:34,580 --> 00:38:37,580
So how does he know he just needs he needs to replace him.

662
00:38:37,580 --> 00:38:48,580
And okay, we know that he replaced Ali maybe because he's a mechanic because that's what John says that who's going to do right job because he was unique.

663
00:38:48,580 --> 00:39:03,580
So he's a mechanic. So how does Abhishek knows the brand new like the one of the good like robbers he shot down was a mechanic and they will recruit Ali eventually doesn't make any sense.

664
00:39:03,580 --> 00:39:05,580
No, Rohit dying was an external factor.

665
00:39:05,580 --> 00:39:07,580
Like it wasn't part of the plan.

666
00:39:07,580 --> 00:39:21,580
And also him dying was not part of the plan. But he's saying that okay, he got hit.

667
00:39:21,580 --> 00:39:25,580
He got the punch for real. But you you are the person who got hurt.

668
00:39:25,580 --> 00:39:33,580
So it's like saying that oh good good is always two steps ahead of evil like he keeps on repeating this stupid phrase.

669
00:39:33,580 --> 00:39:44,580
And then yeah, so as if like he had it in mind that if they split up, John will somehow recruit this guy.

670
00:39:44,580 --> 00:39:49,580
Yeah, and they don't when they recruit Ali, they don't use him for mechanic jobs.

671
00:39:49,580 --> 00:39:54,580
He just is a prince at a hotel with a woman that hates him.

672
00:39:54,580 --> 00:39:59,580
And he's not good at acting least likely like a prince entire group.

673
00:39:59,580 --> 00:40:04,580
He's like he cannot speak even English. He cannot do anything.

674
00:40:04,580 --> 00:40:07,580
He cannot like he's the least prince like person in the whole group.

675
00:40:07,580 --> 00:40:11,580
He's the worst person you could pick for that one specific job.

676
00:40:11,580 --> 00:40:16,580
You can't even stop talking about robbing the rob doing the highest when he's in the casino.

677
00:40:16,580 --> 00:40:20,580
Yeah, he's the guy we need him.

678
00:40:20,580 --> 00:40:27,580
He's so good at being a mechanic that we need him to pretend to be a prince at this casino so we can steal the money.

679
00:40:27,580 --> 00:40:30,580
But you know, I like that he's always nice. He's nice and friendly to everyone.

680
00:40:30,580 --> 00:40:36,580
But when people try to mess with him, you see like yeah, like the toughness comes out a little bit.

681
00:40:36,580 --> 00:40:39,580
That's very good. Did you like him in the clown outfit?

682
00:40:39,580 --> 00:40:45,580
Yeah, that stole my heart. Yeah, but I think that's when I found it the most sexiest.

683
00:40:45,580 --> 00:40:47,580
That was funny. Yeah, that was really cute.

684
00:40:47,580 --> 00:40:53,580
Like he's staring at me. When he's undercover, when he's undercover as a clown,

685
00:40:53,580 --> 00:40:59,580
he's undercover as a clown and has like a headphone and a microphone sticking out of the clown wig.

686
00:40:59,580 --> 00:41:01,580
It's like an undercover clown.

687
00:41:01,580 --> 00:41:05,580
The biggest head microphone piece I've ever seen.

688
00:41:05,580 --> 00:41:08,580
Like what is that? Like, wasn't there that bad?

689
00:41:08,580 --> 00:41:12,580
That point of time, like those years like there were like already Bluetooth headset like, right?

690
00:41:12,580 --> 00:41:21,580
Yeah, this is like a 90s kid spy equipment that they're using to like case the joint.

691
00:41:21,580 --> 00:41:25,580
I mean, everyone can know, understand that they're there.

692
00:41:25,580 --> 00:41:29,580
Police undercover just just sticking the place. Yeah.

693
00:41:29,580 --> 00:41:35,580
So they go to go to the resort to do their final robbery,

694
00:41:35,580 --> 00:41:40,580
which is which I can easily explain as look up Happy New Year.

695
00:41:40,580 --> 00:41:45,580
It's just it's just instead of Dubai, it's go up the movie.

696
00:41:45,580 --> 00:41:48,580
Yeah, but Doom did it first. Yeah, Doom was the original.

697
00:41:48,580 --> 00:41:51,580
So they rent a special room. Ali lives above the vault.

698
00:41:51,580 --> 00:41:54,580
And they are all. Yeah, they asked for that room.

699
00:41:54,580 --> 00:41:58,580
Yeah, it's lucky number for Prince or something. Room 101.

700
00:41:58,580 --> 00:42:00,580
They want to make a baby boy and the zodiac.

701
00:42:00,580 --> 00:42:03,580
The astrologer told them that they would be able to conceive a baby boy.

702
00:42:03,580 --> 00:42:08,580
Oh, I forgot that part. Oh my God. Yes, Winnie. Yes. Yes.

703
00:42:08,580 --> 00:42:11,580
You know, when hotels are like, why did you choose this room?

704
00:42:11,580 --> 00:42:14,580
You're like, because I want to make baby.

705
00:42:14,580 --> 00:42:18,580
Because I want you tell the owner, yeah, I want to make boys specifically.

706
00:42:18,580 --> 00:42:22,580
Hey, man, I need to make a baby boy. Don't worry. It's not a girl.

707
00:42:22,580 --> 00:42:25,580
This is legal. Can't be in 102.

708
00:42:25,580 --> 00:42:27,580
That would lead to a girl. We don't want that.

709
00:42:27,580 --> 00:42:32,580
That equals three. And that means girl. Oh my God.

710
00:42:32,580 --> 00:42:40,580
So they do it. And then Abhishek is plays drunk. Yeah.

711
00:42:40,580 --> 00:42:43,580
So drunk. Can't even know what whiskey he wants.

712
00:42:43,580 --> 00:42:48,580
Yeah, he plays a very bad drunk and the bad guy is the bartender.

713
00:42:48,580 --> 00:42:54,580
Yeah. At this point, bad guy doesn't know that Abhishek knows who he is.

714
00:42:54,580 --> 00:42:58,580
But Abhishek knows because good is always two steps.

715
00:42:58,580 --> 00:43:03,580
That's true. There's a lot of like being two steps ahead at this point.

716
00:43:03,580 --> 00:43:08,580
We're like the bad guys. The bad guys think they pull off the high successfully,

717
00:43:08,580 --> 00:43:11,580
but then they get exposed on camera. Yeah.

718
00:43:11,580 --> 00:43:17,580
And they reveal like there's a scene where Abhishek and John are just sharing each other.

719
00:43:17,580 --> 00:43:21,580
It was like with each other about like how they're always ahead of each other.

720
00:43:21,580 --> 00:43:27,580
There was a very cute gay moment between them, like when they were walking side by side.

721
00:43:27,580 --> 00:43:30,580
And then they were like, oh, I could have been a good friend to you.

722
00:43:30,580 --> 00:43:32,580
You could have been a good friend of mine.

723
00:43:32,580 --> 00:43:35,580
They keep talking about how we could have been friends. Like, dude, fuck each other already.

724
00:43:35,580 --> 00:43:39,580
So that's the part that pissed me off because that's when like cuff him.

725
00:43:39,580 --> 00:43:42,580
It's like this huge thief that you've been trying to catch for so long.

726
00:43:42,580 --> 00:43:47,580
And you're going to take a little stroll together and talk about how if you were a thief, I'd be your friend.

727
00:43:47,580 --> 00:43:49,580
Oh, if you weren't a thief, I'd be your friend.

728
00:43:49,580 --> 00:43:53,580
Like, what is this? You want to go see a movie together?

729
00:43:53,580 --> 00:43:58,580
And then I really wish I didn't have to arrest you right now because you have really kind eyes.

730
00:43:58,580 --> 00:44:01,580
You're so smart. Instead of like arresting him.

731
00:44:01,580 --> 00:44:06,580
Fucking Abhishek reveals that Ali has been working with me this whole time.

732
00:44:06,580 --> 00:44:10,580
Yeah. And then Ali in danger and puts Ali in danger.

733
00:44:10,580 --> 00:44:14,580
And what happens next? They turn off the lights and the bad guys escape.

734
00:44:14,580 --> 00:44:17,580
They have they changed their outfit while leaving.

735
00:44:17,580 --> 00:44:19,580
Not wearing helmets, too.

736
00:44:19,580 --> 00:44:24,580
Oh, yeah. So a helmet is a big, big, big, big part of the story that I realized.

737
00:44:24,580 --> 00:44:28,580
And another reason why we hate the protagonist and love the antagonists.

738
00:44:28,580 --> 00:44:34,580
I was at least that towards the beginning of the film because the antagonists are always with the full gear.

739
00:44:34,580 --> 00:44:38,580
Like they're running. They're driving high speed motorcycles.

740
00:44:38,580 --> 00:44:40,580
So there can be accidents and everything.

741
00:44:40,580 --> 00:44:44,580
So they are wearing all those pads and everything like protective gear and helmet.

742
00:44:44,580 --> 00:44:47,580
And the good guys never wears helmet.

743
00:44:47,580 --> 00:44:55,580
Whereas the film like the film like flimsy T-shirts while running the motorcycle.

744
00:44:55,580 --> 00:44:57,580
And that's absurd. Like, why? Why?

745
00:44:57,580 --> 00:44:59,580
Like you're a police. You should wear helmets.

746
00:44:59,580 --> 00:45:09,580
And then it's we find out that they were actually wearing helmet, not for the safety, but to like to hide their identity.

747
00:45:09,580 --> 00:45:13,580
So later when people know like who they are, they don't bother to wear the helmets.

748
00:45:13,580 --> 00:45:17,580
So that broke my heart. That broke my heart. Yeah.

749
00:45:17,580 --> 00:45:19,580
I'm so sorry. Yeah.

750
00:45:19,580 --> 00:45:24,580
The heart that you had to see their face or that you couldn't see their face earlier.

751
00:45:24,580 --> 00:45:31,580
No, because because I realized that they were wearing helmet to hide their face, not for the safety.

752
00:45:31,580 --> 00:45:33,580
Yeah. And Kelly has always been safety first.

753
00:45:33,580 --> 00:45:36,580
Even when we do this podcast, Kelly keeps saying safety first.

754
00:45:36,580 --> 00:45:41,580
That's why we tape these pillows to our head when we record in case we fall down.

755
00:45:41,580 --> 00:45:44,580
Our heads are protected. And that's the most important part.

756
00:45:44,580 --> 00:45:53,580
And I appreciate every time we watch a movie, Kelly points out what is safe or dangerous that I'm willing to bet that Kelly Sano bike either today or yesterday.

757
00:45:53,580 --> 00:46:06,580
And did not wear a helmet. How many times I lost my helmet for being a pillion rider to bike taxes.

758
00:46:06,580 --> 00:46:12,580
And I felt great. And then later at some point, I lost that helmet somewhere.

759
00:46:12,580 --> 00:46:19,580
That really breaks my heart. It really hurts that you're doing that out of looks and not safety.

760
00:46:19,580 --> 00:46:29,580
Do you remember in one one of the chase scene like Abhishek shoots one shoots John Abraham and John knows exactly when to duck.

761
00:46:29,580 --> 00:46:32,580
And like he ducks and the bullet goes through Matrix. Yeah.

762
00:46:32,580 --> 00:46:41,580
And then hits the bike in front of him and the biker falls down and John with very one on strength.

763
00:46:41,580 --> 00:46:53,580
Yeah. One of the very he picks up that guy and this guy is on home because he was wearing the protective gear and helmet.

764
00:46:53,580 --> 00:47:00,580
Sorry, guys. All right. If I'm on a grab motorbike or if I'm on a motorcycle taxi, I don't like to wear helmets.

765
00:47:00,580 --> 00:47:06,580
No, no, Adam. Everyone used to wear helmets. Safety first. Everybody.

766
00:47:06,580 --> 00:47:15,580
I'm going to be honest with you. One of the reasons I shaved my head was because of like when I ride a bike and wear a helmet, it messes your hair.

767
00:47:15,580 --> 00:47:19,580
And so like I didn't want to deal with that anymore because it hurt like it.

768
00:47:19,580 --> 00:47:24,580
It's difficult to ride your bike with a helmet on and not get helmet head. And that's shitty.

769
00:47:24,580 --> 00:47:29,580
It's a helmet head like when you're here is all messed up because of the helmet.

770
00:47:29,580 --> 00:47:37,580
You know, because I used to just have spiky blonde tips three years ago and the helmet always ruined it. So I had to just shave it off.

771
00:47:37,580 --> 00:47:43,580
Yeah, I look like Paul Walker. Yeah. This movie did inspire me to make an appointment for my bike. Really?

772
00:47:43,580 --> 00:47:46,580
Really? Yeah. Are you finally doing it? I'm doing it next Wednesday.

773
00:47:46,580 --> 00:47:50,580
I watched the film in the morning. I'm like, yeah, it's time.

774
00:47:50,580 --> 00:47:54,580
So you're trying to get your motorcycle license.

775
00:47:54,580 --> 00:48:00,580
I'm taking a two hour practice course and then I'm going to take a sit down for a test and then are you going to an agency?

776
00:48:00,580 --> 00:48:04,580
Yeah. Like I mean like a little school, a training school. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

777
00:48:04,580 --> 00:48:10,580
So I have to sit through the lessons in Thai. I hope I can understand it. No, no, even they have English subtitles.

778
00:48:10,580 --> 00:48:16,580
What do you mean? No, no, this is like actual. Like I have to write the bike actual bike riding course.

779
00:48:16,580 --> 00:48:22,580
Yeah, but but the lessons have English subtitles. Yeah. I just hope the test has the test is in English.

780
00:48:22,580 --> 00:48:27,580
It is the test is in English, but it's very bad English. Yeah, I've heard that it's really bad.

781
00:48:27,580 --> 00:48:32,580
Yeah, it had like double negative and like you don't know, like it's a yes or no question.

782
00:48:32,580 --> 00:48:36,580
And the sentence had double negative. So you don't know, like whether to put yes or no.

783
00:48:36,580 --> 00:48:44,580
You definitely know the question was along the line of like whether a driver should take sleeping pill before driving or not.

784
00:48:44,580 --> 00:48:47,580
For even you definitely know that is a no.

785
00:48:47,580 --> 00:48:56,580
But but the way the question was put, it was like kind of double negative. So you don't know whether to put yes or no to make the driver should never always take pills.

786
00:48:56,580 --> 00:49:02,580
True or false? Like something like that. And I was like, what the like and I did it wrong.

787
00:49:02,580 --> 00:49:07,580
I'm just saying. So Adam has a bike. He doesn't have a bike but has a license.

788
00:49:07,580 --> 00:49:12,580
Those had to ride. I'm going to get one soon. Nicky, you're left and then we can start our own little gang.

789
00:49:12,580 --> 00:49:18,580
We'll do the next podcast while being on bike. How many do movies are there?

790
00:49:18,580 --> 00:49:22,580
Three. Just three. No, you don't need me. No, no, no.

791
00:49:22,580 --> 00:49:28,580
We're going to do Doom 4. We're going to film Doom 4. We are Doom 4.

792
00:49:28,580 --> 00:49:34,580
We'll do the podcast while being on the bike, wearing those headsets that the police were wearing.

793
00:49:34,580 --> 00:49:38,580
I'm committing a heist while doing the podcast.

794
00:49:38,580 --> 00:49:47,580
Yes, I had to take the motorcycle course to get my license here and they just give you a random automatic bike.

795
00:49:47,580 --> 00:49:54,580
And there is like one difficult part where you have to like ride on like a rail and not fall off on either side and stuff.

796
00:49:54,580 --> 00:50:00,580
And then otherwise, it's just stop and turn and whatever. And then yeah, that it's easy.

797
00:50:00,580 --> 00:50:04,580
And so I took the course and I was nervous, but it was fine. It was easy.

798
00:50:04,580 --> 00:50:08,580
And when I finished, because you're with all the other people that are applying that day,

799
00:50:08,580 --> 00:50:12,580
I was the only foreigner because I was up in the suburbs when I was doing this.

800
00:50:12,580 --> 00:50:18,580
When I finished, the whole Thai staff that worked there like was clapping for me because I was like a big dumb white guy.

801
00:50:18,580 --> 00:50:22,580
And they were just like so proud of me for doing the motorcycle obstacle course.

802
00:50:22,580 --> 00:50:26,580
And everyone just was like clapping. That sounds like a Bollywood moment. Yeah.

803
00:50:26,580 --> 00:50:30,580
And I was like, I guys, I'm not that dumb. Like I can do this.

804
00:50:30,580 --> 00:50:35,580
Mine was like pretty tough for the written part. Like I failed the exam twice.

805
00:50:35,580 --> 00:50:40,580
And the third third goal I could answer. I got like forty six out of fifty, like forty five.

806
00:50:40,580 --> 00:50:47,580
You have to score. But you have an American license and you are converting into Thai license.

807
00:50:47,580 --> 00:50:52,580
So for the driver's license, you have two separate licenses, one's for motorcycle, one's for the car.

808
00:50:52,580 --> 00:50:57,580
If you have an American car driver's license, you can switch it to the Thai car one.

809
00:50:57,580 --> 00:51:04,580
But I had to take the so I did that. But then I had to take the motorcycle course and test to get my motorcycle license.

810
00:51:04,580 --> 00:51:09,580
Now, my Thai driver's license was six months expired.

811
00:51:09,580 --> 00:51:13,580
I found out. Oh, no, sorry. It was over a year expired. And I just completely missed it.

812
00:51:13,580 --> 00:51:19,580
Yeah, I had to retake the test. I failed the written test twice, even though like I practiced over.

813
00:51:19,580 --> 00:51:23,580
Both of you failed twice. OK, you cannot be part of our game. It's super hard.

814
00:51:23,580 --> 00:51:28,580
No, but but but the practical test we we we I passed it the one go.

815
00:51:28,580 --> 00:51:32,580
So I drive every day. Yeah. So I feel like a perfect.

816
00:51:32,580 --> 00:51:40,580
So I remember like the practical test, then like there were like four stop sign and hidden behind like the tree leaves.

817
00:51:40,580 --> 00:51:44,580
Like one of the stop signs was like weathered out. It's the bunch of one.

818
00:51:44,580 --> 00:51:50,580
Yeah. And then I saw people failing in front of me and the the the person who was coordinating the test,

819
00:51:50,580 --> 00:51:55,580
he was telling me, look, there are five signs. You have to stop five times. Remember that.

820
00:51:55,580 --> 00:51:59,580
And I kept on noticing all the five signs because even the people are failing.

821
00:51:59,580 --> 00:52:02,580
They can see like where the five stops are. So I did that.

822
00:52:02,580 --> 00:52:06,580
And after the stop signs, there was like those real media player.

823
00:52:06,580 --> 00:52:12,580
You have to drive across like a snake and then then that real thing.

824
00:52:12,580 --> 00:52:16,580
So out of all the stunts in the film, which one do you want?

825
00:52:16,580 --> 00:52:18,580
You think was the coolest and you didn't want to learn how to do.

826
00:52:18,580 --> 00:52:21,580
I need to finish this DMV story.

827
00:52:21,580 --> 00:52:27,580
I failed. I failed the car written test twice.

828
00:52:27,580 --> 00:52:31,580
Well, like twice in the same sitting because you can fail once and try again,

829
00:52:31,580 --> 00:52:34,580
but they don't give you the same questions that you took the first time.

830
00:52:34,580 --> 00:52:38,580
So it's impossible. And I had taken the test over and over again.

831
00:52:38,580 --> 00:52:40,580
I practiced, but the questions are really hard.

832
00:52:40,580 --> 00:52:43,580
And then, yeah, they give you a brand new set of questions and I failed that again.

833
00:52:43,580 --> 00:52:47,580
So I come back down. I was working with an agent. I was like, I failed both times, man.

834
00:52:47,580 --> 00:52:50,580
And she's like, OK, fine. Come back next week.

835
00:52:50,580 --> 00:52:54,580
Someone else will take the test for you and then we'll just get the license.

836
00:52:54,580 --> 00:52:57,580
And this was the agent, not the not the car company.

837
00:52:57,580 --> 00:53:03,580
I was like, fine. I think it was like a thousand baht, which is like thirty dollars.

838
00:53:03,580 --> 00:53:06,580
I show up a week later and she's like, hey, here you go.

839
00:53:06,580 --> 00:53:09,580
Your test is done. You got perfect. Come take your photo.

840
00:53:09,580 --> 00:53:14,580
Are you? No, it's not legal, but it was with an agency like they.

841
00:53:14,580 --> 00:53:16,580
But but obviously they're using the department.

842
00:53:16,580 --> 00:53:20,580
They know someone there because the other thing is when you take the test, they use your thumbprint.

843
00:53:20,580 --> 00:53:22,580
They they they scan your fingerprint now.

844
00:53:22,580 --> 00:53:29,580
So I don't know how they did it, but somehow like they registered under my fingerprint, took the test.

845
00:53:29,580 --> 00:53:33,580
And now I'm really I found a very obscure blog website

846
00:53:33,580 --> 00:53:36,580
which had all the possible questions and answers.

847
00:53:36,580 --> 00:53:42,580
And I kind of first day like I read that I read the traffic rules one

848
00:53:42,580 --> 00:53:46,580
and then went to the window, went to appear for the test. Oh, my God.

849
00:53:46,580 --> 00:53:50,580
There were like car maintenance question as well, which I was not prepared for.

850
00:53:50,580 --> 00:53:56,580
So I failed next day. So after one test, they asked me to come back next day.

851
00:53:56,580 --> 00:54:01,580
Next day I come back. I that evening I study a lot for the car maintenance part.

852
00:54:01,580 --> 00:54:04,580
So I'm like, OK, now I'm kind of confident I'll pass.

853
00:54:04,580 --> 00:54:10,580
And then I see that they feel terrible English in the question and I don't know what to answer.

854
00:54:10,580 --> 00:54:12,580
Then I feel again. Then I was about to leave.

855
00:54:12,580 --> 00:54:16,580
They were like, no, you can appear once more today before going back.

856
00:54:16,580 --> 00:54:24,580
I was like, yes, this is my final chance to show prove myself that I'm a good, worth, worthy driver.

857
00:54:24,580 --> 00:54:27,580
And you're safe. Yeah. And I'm not going to hit people.

858
00:54:27,580 --> 00:54:32,580
So then then I was like, I passed the test with flying colors. Wow.

859
00:54:32,580 --> 00:54:36,580
Forty six out of 50. I'm so proud. Yeah.

860
00:54:36,580 --> 00:54:42,580
And then next day I passed the driving test in one go. So proud of myself. So impressive.

861
00:54:42,580 --> 00:54:48,580
I just think it's funny that five minutes ago we were talking about being safe, but here we're talking about cutting corners.

862
00:54:48,580 --> 00:54:55,580
Yeah. Also, like pay someone to take a test for you. You don't need to do that.

863
00:54:55,580 --> 00:54:57,580
I'm the one doing all the anti-safe measures.

864
00:54:57,580 --> 00:55:01,580
I'm the one that pays someone to take my test and I refuse to wear a helmet when I'm a passenger.

865
00:55:01,580 --> 00:55:08,580
Kaili obeys the rules. Yeah, I obey the rules. Yeah. I fear upstairs we have wildly different opinions.

866
00:55:08,580 --> 00:55:15,580
I'm totally in support of heist, but road safety. Yes. So yeah.

867
00:55:15,580 --> 00:55:22,580
So if we can do the heist as long as we wear helmets. Yes. Defend yourself, but steal. Yeah. Steal the bank, but be safe on the road.

868
00:55:22,580 --> 00:55:29,580
I mean, I agree with that. I don't want to die after I rob a bank. Yeah, of course. I don't like where this club is going.

869
00:55:29,580 --> 00:55:35,580
Are we in the gang or not, Winnie? I mean, after you said that you are okay with doing a heist, I think you're welcome back in.

870
00:55:35,580 --> 00:55:43,580
Yeah. It's not morally wrong. Not unethical. No, no, no. And goodness is always two steps ahead of evil.

871
00:55:43,580 --> 00:55:49,580
And it's better to rob a bank than to rob a person. So that's why we'll always be ahead of the police.

872
00:55:49,580 --> 00:56:01,580
The only one heist I was not in favor of was the chief minister relief fund. Like that was like a good cause. Yeah. Usually used for like flooded area, like natural calamity or other stuff like that.

873
00:56:01,580 --> 00:56:11,580
It was not a lot of money that they stole either. Right. Yeah. It was like a few lakhs, like a few millions of one point seven million INR, which is like divided by seventy.

874
00:56:11,580 --> 00:56:25,580
So maybe like 100,000, like 100, 200 thousand dollars total. Yeah. No, no. The money from the relief fund. Yeah. Total. Yes. Two hundred thousand.

875
00:56:25,580 --> 00:56:31,580
Yeah. So you split it up with six people. Yeah. It's not that much. I mean, the bikes cost way more. I don't know.

876
00:56:31,580 --> 00:56:41,580
I couldn't I couldn't balance with their like risk taking where they can die, where they have like these huge expensive bikes. We got to stop working at this pizza place.

877
00:56:41,580 --> 00:56:47,580
We got to steal enough money so we never have to work at the bikes. The bikes were like so expensive.

878
00:56:47,580 --> 00:56:55,580
Like when they lose a bike for stealing money, like you can lose a bike because you don't know like who is going to pull is going to shoot you like definitely they're going to shoot you.

879
00:56:55,580 --> 00:57:01,580
I mean, Rohit died because that incident. Was it worth it? What are you stealing? Like a few hundred thousand dollars.

880
00:57:01,580 --> 00:57:09,580
Like that that didn't gel me well. Like still more. Still a few million dollars at least. I think they tried.

881
00:57:09,580 --> 00:57:16,580
Well, they tried that with the the New Year. The casino. Right. Yeah. The casino. So how does it end? Because it doesn't even end at the casino.

882
00:57:16,580 --> 00:57:26,580
That's what we need to get to. Yeah. Let's get to the ending. Oh, yeah. Because the casino is not the ending. Like they're taking a little stroll and then another twist. What happened?

883
00:57:26,580 --> 00:57:29,580
Like I said, they're always one step ahead of each other.

884
00:57:29,580 --> 00:57:34,580
Like Abhishek reveals that Ali has been working for him all the time this whole time.

885
00:57:34,580 --> 00:57:46,580
And then, you know, John John John's gang managed to escape. So now they're this this the bad guys are after Ali.

886
00:57:46,580 --> 00:57:56,580
Right. Who's he who who's tying up the girl and forcing her to marry him?

887
00:57:56,580 --> 00:58:05,580
Him, which is yeah, he's like, she's tied up and he's like, tomorrow when we marry guys, you guys are making the sound so bad. It's bad. It's objectively bad.

888
00:58:05,580 --> 00:58:11,580
It's so she was tied up in a truck and he's like, tomorrow when we marry and she's like, I don't like you.

889
00:58:11,580 --> 00:58:16,580
Yeah. So in the end, when she leaves everything for him, it's Stockholm Syndrome. Correct.

890
00:58:16,580 --> 00:58:27,580
It's Stockholm Syndrome. But as Ali is about to be shot by the gang, you know, in comes Abhishek and on the boat and he shoots, you know, shooting John's head.

891
00:58:27,580 --> 00:58:34,580
Because what's better than a truck, but a boat and a boat flies out of the water to shoot them right about this.

892
00:58:34,580 --> 00:58:41,580
Like there are smart thieves. They're using fast bikes. And then their escape car is like a huge truck.

893
00:58:41,580 --> 00:58:47,580
Like the whole money was fitted on a five suitcases and a hotel trolley.

894
00:58:47,580 --> 00:58:55,580
So they could. OK, yeah, they could fucking ran away with with that car that John Abraham wasted, Kavir wasted.

895
00:58:55,580 --> 00:58:59,580
They put all the money in like five briefcases that fit in the trunk of a car.

896
00:58:59,580 --> 00:59:09,580
And then to carry the money, they're in a gigantic truck where it's it's in it's in Goa, where the streets are very narrow.

897
00:59:09,580 --> 00:59:13,580
Because Ali Ali took the money there, right, because he had to take it to a safe spot.

898
00:59:13,580 --> 00:59:22,580
So he took the money to the truck. And then that's why they just had to like, to be honest, the trucks was being used earlier for to the bikes to escape.

899
00:59:22,580 --> 00:59:25,580
Yeah, right. Right. But the bikes in as well. Yeah.

900
00:59:25,580 --> 00:59:30,580
So I think they didn't have anything else there. But then the boat coming on land was really dramatic.

901
00:59:30,580 --> 00:59:37,580
They're on the boat. They throw a what's it called? A grappling hook kind of latches onto the truck anchor.

902
00:59:37,580 --> 00:59:41,580
Yeah. An anchor. The truck is driving in the boats on the street getting dragged behind.

903
00:59:41,580 --> 00:59:47,580
They have a big Matrix two reloaded type fist fight on top of the truck, which is actually impressive.

904
00:59:47,580 --> 00:59:50,580
They were doing cool stunts on top of the truck. They were fighting pretty well.

905
00:59:50,580 --> 00:59:57,580
It felt like Royal Rumble. I felt like I was watching Royal Rumble in WWE where it's like if you if the opponent leaves the ring, they lose.

906
00:59:57,580 --> 01:00:00,580
Right. That's how you lose.

907
01:00:00,580 --> 01:00:04,580
So it's like whoever like just falls off the truck for a sleep.

908
01:00:04,580 --> 01:00:10,580
They're like, oh, I had pulled the whole nighter. It was a rough night. I'm just going to sleep.

909
01:00:10,580 --> 01:00:19,580
But we noticed like a lot of quirks in the truck chase, the truck fight scene where there's like you see the production crew blocking the road.

910
01:00:19,580 --> 01:00:24,580
And you also see like the bystanders in the background watching the.

911
01:00:24,580 --> 01:00:30,580
Yeah, there was a one shot like you could see the production crew blocking the road at the big bear off focus.

912
01:00:30,580 --> 01:00:35,580
We were pausing the video. They didn't blur it or anything.

913
01:00:35,580 --> 01:00:39,580
And I was like, wait, is that production crew?

914
01:00:39,580 --> 01:00:47,580
To be honest, in the defense, it was a time when the film was not that easily available to make pause and look and analyze.

915
01:00:47,580 --> 01:00:50,580
No bullshit. This was DVD era. Oh, yeah. Yeah.

916
01:00:50,580 --> 01:00:56,580
Yeah. Oh, yeah. It's DVD era. Yeah. Fuck. No. Yeah. It's unforgivable.

917
01:00:56,580 --> 01:01:02,580
It was very easy shot to not use or like just just just wash it like just just.

918
01:01:02,580 --> 01:01:08,580
But no one can see it. Yeah, it's fine. But you guys did. I was glaringly obvious to me.

919
01:01:08,580 --> 01:01:17,580
Yeah, I don't did. And then like, I guess, you know, we have this like Abhishek gets all like ninja, so to speak.

920
01:01:17,580 --> 01:01:24,580
And then Ali is also like suddenly strong and manages to like throw almost everyone out the truck.

921
01:01:24,580 --> 01:01:34,580
And then he manages to stop the truck and we get like this one final chase sequence where John Abraham is like escaping on motorcycle.

922
01:01:34,580 --> 01:01:38,580
And so they drive. They also got motorcycles from the trucks, supposedly.

923
01:01:38,580 --> 01:01:44,580
No, I guess they got the from the production crew. The production for gives them motorcycles.

924
01:01:44,580 --> 01:01:50,580
Yeah, that's it. And this is the first time Abhishek is riding a motorbike instead of being a P.V.N.

925
01:01:50,580 --> 01:01:55,580
Right. Yeah. And then major character development.

926
01:01:55,580 --> 01:02:03,580
He can finally ride a bike. They they finally chase John to this like big open field and they're about to sandwich him.

927
01:02:03,580 --> 01:02:09,580
I remember one scene before the sandwich. John is like they start from behind of John.

928
01:02:09,580 --> 01:02:14,580
But after a while, when John was escaping, Abhishek Bachchan is in front of him.

929
01:02:14,580 --> 01:02:20,580
Just out of nowhere, even though it's a complete opposite direction. Yeah, it defies everything.

930
01:02:20,580 --> 01:02:25,580
I didn't hear enough to notice that. At this point, you don't even question these things.

931
01:02:25,580 --> 01:02:28,580
There's been enough absurdity. Yeah, I'll go on to that.

932
01:02:28,580 --> 01:02:31,580
That's what I was telling Adam yesterday after watching the film.

933
01:02:31,580 --> 01:02:37,580
And then they had this like gay moment where they just look at each other and they're like, see, I told you, I'm a cop.

934
01:02:37,580 --> 01:02:40,580
We could have been best friends, but you play in.

935
01:02:40,580 --> 01:02:47,580
The police always catches the thief and then John is like, well, yeah, I'll pass by you and you wouldn't even notice.

936
01:02:47,580 --> 01:02:52,580
Yeah. Famous last words. Yeah. So driving away from the field.

937
01:02:52,580 --> 01:03:00,580
So so so so so Ali and the protagonist, the chief of police, they're on their own separate motorbikes.

938
01:03:00,580 --> 01:03:02,580
They came out of nowhere.

939
01:03:02,580 --> 01:03:07,580
And in between them is the bad guy, John Abraham.

940
01:03:07,580 --> 01:03:19,580
Right. And to his left is a big mountain range that is vast because there's a lot of land he could go.

941
01:03:19,580 --> 01:03:22,580
And on the other side of him is a cliff with the ocean.

942
01:03:22,580 --> 01:03:25,580
And he decides I'm going to go towards the cliff.

943
01:03:25,580 --> 01:03:32,580
And in order to escape these two guys who are chasing him in this big, vast, vast acreage of land,

944
01:03:32,580 --> 01:03:39,580
he just heads towards the cliff and flies off. The money flies out of his backpack.

945
01:03:39,580 --> 01:03:43,580
He like looks back at that at what could have been his best friend.

946
01:03:43,580 --> 01:03:50,580
And then just eat shit as he hits the fucking shore, a very shallow beach.

947
01:03:50,580 --> 01:03:54,580
And he just eat shit in the rocks. His bike goes in there and he just dies.

948
01:03:54,580 --> 01:03:59,580
Well, they assume he dies. He's dead. So I watched the whole.

949
01:03:59,580 --> 01:04:01,580
I was like, what the fuck is this? I was like, what?

950
01:04:01,580 --> 01:04:07,580
I was like, surely there's like a trick and like at the end of the credits, like he comes out of the ocean.

951
01:04:07,580 --> 01:04:09,580
He has money or whatever.

952
01:04:09,580 --> 01:04:12,580
Wait, did he really die? Because that's part two of our three.

953
01:04:12,580 --> 01:04:15,580
He's not in it. He doesn't come back.

954
01:04:15,580 --> 01:04:17,580
He doesn't come back. It's a totally different. That's so dumb.

955
01:04:17,580 --> 01:04:20,580
He has no he has no on the bike. He could have out drove.

956
01:04:20,580 --> 01:04:22,580
Could have flown away. No, correct.

957
01:04:22,580 --> 01:04:27,580
It's not a trick. He did the other way.

958
01:04:27,580 --> 01:04:32,580
Yeah, he's like he's pointing down at the ocean and hits the NOS.

959
01:04:32,580 --> 01:04:35,580
So he just flies straight in the rock as quick as possible.

960
01:04:35,580 --> 01:04:38,580
He used the NOS. That's why he's. Yeah, that's why he couldn't think straight.

961
01:04:38,580 --> 01:04:42,580
Yeah, I think everyone in this film took some NOS. Yeah, they just misused it.

962
01:04:42,580 --> 01:04:46,580
I mean, he was huffy NOS because he's like overconfident over the last heist.

963
01:04:46,580 --> 01:04:49,580
So they used up the NOS at the party night.

964
01:04:49,580 --> 01:04:53,580
He chooses death and he could have very easily just ran away.

965
01:04:53,580 --> 01:04:58,580
But that could have been the best chase sequence at the end where like

966
01:04:58,580 --> 01:05:04,580
he tries to like fly like run away from these two cops and these like

967
01:05:04,580 --> 01:05:09,580
where Ali could shine finally like he's racing abilities and being the first champion

968
01:05:09,580 --> 01:05:13,580
in every race that OK, he's like beating him because because John

969
01:05:13,580 --> 01:05:17,580
Kabir, the character's name, he beat him in the race. Right.

970
01:05:17,580 --> 01:05:22,580
So this was the final chance of the call for the redemption to beat him

971
01:05:22,580 --> 01:05:29,580
in the chasing because, yeah, so the filmmaker doesn't give the good guys

972
01:05:29,580 --> 01:05:31,580
any chance of like winning or anything.

973
01:05:31,580 --> 01:05:34,580
Maybe John Abraham was not willing to come back for part two.

974
01:05:34,580 --> 01:05:38,580
So they're like, we have to kill this guy because just kill the character.

975
01:05:38,580 --> 01:05:40,580
Just just he runs away.

976
01:05:40,580 --> 01:05:42,580
Arrest him or run away.

977
01:05:42,580 --> 01:05:45,580
Like all the money is gone and he just kills himself.

978
01:05:45,580 --> 01:05:50,580
Like and you can the whole thing is about being one step ahead or two steps ahead.

979
01:05:50,580 --> 01:05:53,580
But maybe for a thief, that's more dignified.

980
01:05:53,580 --> 01:05:55,580
Right. It's still on your terms.

981
01:05:55,580 --> 01:06:00,580
Yeah. But if you had no chance to run away, there was like a huge ground.

982
01:06:00,580 --> 01:06:02,580
You have a fast motorbike.

983
01:06:02,580 --> 01:06:06,580
You know, you have defeated this guy in a bike race before.

984
01:06:06,580 --> 01:06:11,580
And the other guy doesn't know how to ride like a sports motorbike.

985
01:06:11,580 --> 01:06:13,580
He never rode. He was always a pillion.

986
01:06:13,580 --> 01:06:15,580
And you are like a champion of motorbikes.

987
01:06:15,580 --> 01:06:18,580
You can easily run away from them.

988
01:06:18,580 --> 01:06:20,580
It's not like you are cornered.

989
01:06:20,580 --> 01:06:21,580
So that's what I was.

990
01:06:21,580 --> 01:06:25,580
That's when I was telling Adam that this how Bollywood films we perceive,

991
01:06:25,580 --> 01:06:27,580
like when we grew up watching Bollywood films,

992
01:06:27,580 --> 01:06:31,580
not most of the Bollywood films were not grounded at all.

993
01:06:31,580 --> 01:06:33,580
They were not realistic at all.

994
01:06:33,580 --> 01:06:39,580
Like we are pulling out this points of this film is like so many things they could have done.

995
01:06:39,580 --> 01:06:42,580
But most of the films, even even the disco dancer, right?

996
01:06:42,580 --> 01:06:45,580
Like like playing the guitar without the chord.

997
01:06:45,580 --> 01:06:50,580
But then suddenly the plot, the huge plot point is he gets electrocuted.

998
01:06:50,580 --> 01:06:55,580
While all other songs, his guitar was never plugged in.

999
01:06:55,580 --> 01:07:00,580
So these things like Bollywood films were never like grounded.

1000
01:07:00,580 --> 01:07:08,580
They were always about the spectacles and what you carry, take away after the film is like those few moments in the film that was like that stood out.

1001
01:07:08,580 --> 01:07:18,580
So I was telling him like how I remembered after after throwing away the car from the cliff, John comes out and lights a cigarette and walks away.

1002
01:07:18,580 --> 01:07:23,580
That was the that was the image I remember from the childhood like, oh, wow, such a cool scene.

1003
01:07:23,580 --> 01:07:33,580
And then I remembered that, OK, John was cornered at the end and kills himself instead of like what you said exactly, right?

1004
01:07:33,580 --> 01:07:38,580
That he chooses dignity over getting caught.

1005
01:07:38,580 --> 01:07:47,580
I had that emotion. But when I see it like in realistically, he could do whatever, anything else apart from like killing himself.

1006
01:07:47,580 --> 01:07:52,580
Maybe we give him benefit of doubt and we assume that Abhishek's words really got to him.

1007
01:07:52,580 --> 01:07:57,580
Good will always be two steps ahead of evil. He could have run, but Abhishek would always catch him.

1008
01:07:57,580 --> 01:08:03,580
And that was one of that was one of the last lines that Abhishek said to him also like, I'm a cop. You're a thief. Like you run.

1009
01:08:03,580 --> 01:08:09,580
I catch you. It felt like Tom and Jerry at some point. Quite honestly. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

1010
01:08:09,580 --> 01:08:16,580
Tom never catches Jerry. It's just yeah. But Jerry just kills himself to avoid the chase altogether.

1011
01:08:16,580 --> 01:08:23,580
And then we go to the end scene and all of a sudden, Tata Young shows up. OK, so we have to get to that.

1012
01:08:23,580 --> 01:08:27,580
Yeah, sorry. We're completely blanked about that. Tata Young.

1013
01:08:27,580 --> 01:08:32,580
She's she sings Doom Doom English version. So Tata Young, right?

1014
01:08:32,580 --> 01:08:37,580
Like at this period in time, right? She so Tata Young in the beginning, right?

1015
01:08:37,580 --> 01:08:42,580
She was like a teen pop star in Thailand, in Thailand. She's like this teen teen pop star in Thailand.

1016
01:08:42,580 --> 01:08:49,580
She makes like the most innocent songs. I don't remember the titles, but she has this like squeaky clean image.

1017
01:08:49,580 --> 01:08:59,580
And right around when she reached adulthood, which is when Doom came out, she's you know, she started singing Doom.

1018
01:08:59,580 --> 01:09:08,580
And what's very noticeable with this with this song is that like she she she reinvented herself into this like sex symbol, if you will.

1019
01:09:08,580 --> 01:09:14,580
So it was Doom song that launched her as a sex symbol. Yeah. Yes. Yes.

1020
01:09:14,580 --> 01:09:19,580
Correct. She has a very clean image. And then like it's not just Doom.

1021
01:09:19,580 --> 01:09:23,580
Doom is a very popular song, right? But around the same time, she will.

1022
01:09:23,580 --> 01:09:30,580
She also had hits like sexy, naughty, bitchy songs. She's not clean. But it all happened at once.

1023
01:09:30,580 --> 01:09:34,580
I think like Doom kind of put that in motion. But like that Doom was the one that put in motion.

1024
01:09:34,580 --> 01:09:42,580
And then later on, she made that song. And then late and then around like 2007 or so, she had like this single called El Nino.

1025
01:09:42,580 --> 01:09:48,580
El Nino where she's like in the music video, she's like in lingerie.

1026
01:09:48,580 --> 01:09:53,580
And like it was and then like Thai, Thai at the time, Thailand was like in shock.

1027
01:09:53,580 --> 01:09:59,580
But like, you know, this is too spicy for TV. But that's that's Tatayang for you where she's like Doom.

1028
01:09:59,580 --> 01:10:03,580
It's Doom is where it all started. Right. Was she like the Britney Spears? Exactly.

1029
01:10:03,580 --> 01:10:08,580
That's how people like the Britney Spears. Yeah. So you could easily say like this was her toxic era.

1030
01:10:08,580 --> 01:10:12,580
Yeah. After she did like the oops, I did it again and maybe one more time.

1031
01:10:12,580 --> 01:10:17,580
I think she became like a superstar overnight with this Doom hit. Yeah, you hear it everywhere.

1032
01:10:17,580 --> 01:10:21,580
So during like I never seen Doom until until now. Right.

1033
01:10:21,580 --> 01:10:27,580
But like during like when I was in elementary school, you would hear Doom. Why didn't you? Did Thai people watch Doom?

1034
01:10:27,580 --> 01:10:33,580
Yeah, it wasn't theater. So I was just too young and too stupid to just like most Thai people would know the song.

1035
01:10:33,580 --> 01:10:40,580
Like I don't think you'll meet a single type of people who doesn't know the Doom song. But of course, most most would not have watched the entire movie.

1036
01:10:40,580 --> 01:10:46,580
I don't think it was distributed in Thailand. It was. It was still a very popular.

1037
01:10:46,580 --> 01:10:50,580
I remember it was still a big deal. Thai Indians have seen it. Right.

1038
01:10:50,580 --> 01:10:56,580
Yeah, I watched it when I was young and I think I think more Thai, some Thais might have watched it also because of the song.

1039
01:10:56,580 --> 01:11:05,580
I think Indian media is pretty popular in Thailand. Mostly like the TV series.

1040
01:11:05,580 --> 01:11:14,580
Like also like the the the classic not classic, like mythical mythological stories.

1041
01:11:14,580 --> 01:11:22,580
I've seen I've seen I've seen people watching them in Thai dub like all the time, like when I travel around in Thailand.

1042
01:11:22,580 --> 01:11:27,580
But I think this might be the first time that like Bollywood has such a close crossover with Thai culture.

1043
01:11:27,580 --> 01:11:31,580
I think it's like one of the first. Yeah. At least like in our generation.

1044
01:11:31,580 --> 01:11:44,580
That was the era in Bollywood when they were like getting pop stars from other countries to like like other cultures to perform for Bollywood songs.

1045
01:11:44,580 --> 01:11:49,580
Like, yeah, so they had few others and then Tatangang was one of them.

1046
01:11:49,580 --> 01:11:53,580
I don't even know. I tried to find out like find out how or why she ended up in there.

1047
01:11:53,580 --> 01:11:59,580
There's like no information. So much time to find out why she got picked for the soundtrack.

1048
01:11:59,580 --> 01:12:06,580
Yeah, nothing. I couldn't find any information. I think I think it's just like regular way like her agent.

1049
01:12:06,580 --> 01:12:14,580
Oh, I have a theory. So her real name is Amitabh. Like Amitabh Marie Young. So Amitabh Young. Right.

1050
01:12:14,580 --> 01:12:23,580
And I was like, maybe because her name resembles Amitabh. That was my theory.

1051
01:12:23,580 --> 01:12:27,580
You think they went through a phone book? No, I think that they found this girl.

1052
01:12:27,580 --> 01:12:31,580
She might have been one of the contenders and they were like, you know what, her name is so similar to Amitabh.

1053
01:12:31,580 --> 01:12:35,580
She's a lucky charm. And I can see Indian people doing that because they're superstitious as hell.

1054
01:12:35,580 --> 01:12:41,580
So like I can see that playing a role in the final decision. Amitabh. Amitabh.

1055
01:12:41,580 --> 01:12:54,580
To be honest, it can be right. You know, like what I'm saying, like while it sounds like arbitrary of the weirdest of the weirdest reason, but it can be true.

1056
01:12:54,580 --> 01:13:05,580
Like so when I used to shoot in India, like a few short films when I was shooting, there is a thing like if you shoot a dead person, you have to shoot a shot.

1057
01:13:05,580 --> 01:13:11,580
Like you don't have to use it, of course, where they come to come back to life, you know, so that like it's not a lot.

1058
01:13:11,580 --> 01:13:16,580
No, no, no. It's a it's a it's a superstition in the film crew.

1059
01:13:16,580 --> 01:13:28,580
Like if you shoot someone dying, you have to do a shot that you don't use later that they're waking up from the dead.

1060
01:13:28,580 --> 01:13:34,580
I would love to watch all the footage of every dead Indian actor coming back to life in the real stock.

1061
01:13:34,580 --> 01:13:40,580
Actually, you should should do that like stock from the film because because digital age, it doesn't matter.

1062
01:13:40,580 --> 01:13:43,580
I'm like, OK, I just rolling the camera because I shot in digital age.

1063
01:13:43,580 --> 01:13:47,580
So, OK, they roll the camera. OK, you wake up like that.

1064
01:13:47,580 --> 01:13:54,580
But in film era, you have specific film stock. You have like limited supply of film.

1065
01:13:54,580 --> 01:14:03,580
So if people dying and then you have to use like, OK, you have to think of it like, OK, if people are dying, I have to look at a stock.

1066
01:14:03,580 --> 01:14:06,580
Part of the stock for people waking up from the death.

1067
01:14:06,580 --> 01:14:12,580
John Abraham, come out of the water. We need to film you coming out of the water.

1068
01:14:12,580 --> 01:14:16,580
I thought he lives. We see him die. We see dying.

1069
01:14:16,580 --> 01:14:21,580
For example, Rohit Rohit dies like there is a dead body. He's dead.

1070
01:14:21,580 --> 01:14:31,580
So that kind of shot like John is like, I mean, we we we it's like most probably he died, but we don't see on the camera that he's dead.

1071
01:14:31,580 --> 01:14:36,580
So we need like a screen saver of just, yeah, like dead people coming back to life.

1072
01:14:36,580 --> 01:14:39,580
We can still have doom for and John Abraham comes back.

1073
01:14:39,580 --> 01:14:44,580
It's you know, I would not put that past the franchise one bit or you.

1074
01:14:44,580 --> 01:14:46,580
I mean, this is what you want to do.

1075
01:14:46,580 --> 01:14:53,580
There was a film where we're making it. We could be film where John Abraham plays a role who has a near death experience.

1076
01:14:53,580 --> 01:14:58,580
Like, is this a horror film? It's kind of horror.

1077
01:14:58,580 --> 01:15:00,580
What's it called? I forgot the name.

1078
01:15:00,580 --> 01:15:04,580
I watched it when I was young. I think it's a rip off of some Hollywood film.

1079
01:15:04,580 --> 01:15:11,580
Maybe. I don't know, because at that time, like Bollywood was ripping off like films left and right.

1080
01:15:11,580 --> 01:15:15,580
They ripped off Primal Fear. They ripped off many other films.

1081
01:15:15,580 --> 01:15:18,580
Yeah, they ripped off Usual Suspect.

1082
01:15:18,580 --> 01:15:25,580
So, yeah, I mean, there was there was this film where John Abraham is like had a near death experience.

1083
01:15:25,580 --> 01:15:28,580
But was it before? I think it was after Doom.

1084
01:15:28,580 --> 01:15:33,580
Wait, Primal Fear were like they get raped in a Catholic church.

1085
01:15:33,580 --> 01:15:35,580
They remade that.

1086
01:15:35,580 --> 01:15:42,580
Primal Fear is that is Ed Norton getting raped by a priest in a Catholic church?

1087
01:15:42,580 --> 01:15:54,580
No, the crime is different. But the way he's like he's a bad guy, like who plays into his mental illness to do the crime that that thing.

1088
01:15:54,580 --> 01:15:56,580
I mean, they would change the plot points.

1089
01:15:56,580 --> 01:15:59,580
It's not like shot by shot remake a scene by scene remake.

1090
01:15:59,580 --> 01:16:04,580
They keep the main storyline and they kind of remake the story in Indian context.

1091
01:16:04,580 --> 01:16:13,580
For good luck, too, if they film like a bad rapesheet or something, then they film them getting kissed on the forehead afterwards to know it wasn't malicious.

1092
01:16:13,580 --> 01:16:16,580
For good luck.

1093
01:16:16,580 --> 01:16:17,580
Yeah.

1094
01:16:17,580 --> 01:16:35,580
So there is like since this is on the topic, like Bollywood had this thing of like when women like mostly like sister of heroes and everything, sister of heroes, usually your mother of heroes are getting raped.

1095
01:16:35,580 --> 01:16:41,580
And so they kill themselves to keep the prestige.

1096
01:16:41,580 --> 01:16:43,580
The sister of the rape victim?

1097
01:16:43,580 --> 01:16:49,580
No, sister of the heroes usually like these are other people like the hero never gets raped.

1098
01:16:49,580 --> 01:16:52,580
I have no idea where this is going.

1099
01:16:52,580 --> 01:17:00,580
Like daughter of a mother of the hero or the sister of the hero is getting raped and to save their dignity.

1100
01:17:00,580 --> 01:17:01,580
They kill themselves.

1101
01:17:01,580 --> 01:17:04,580
Or like their family member kills them.

1102
01:17:04,580 --> 01:17:06,540
They're killing, they're killing something.

1103
01:17:06,540 --> 01:17:08,860
They would be the bad people, quote unquote.

1104
01:17:08,860 --> 01:17:09,900
No, not bad, quote unquote.

1105
01:17:09,900 --> 01:17:11,540
So they would be the bad people.

1106
01:17:12,500 --> 01:17:13,860
But they kill themselves.

1107
01:17:13,860 --> 01:17:15,020
That sucks.

1108
01:17:15,020 --> 01:17:17,860
Yeah, so that was like, that was a huge discussion.

1109
01:17:17,860 --> 01:17:19,980
Like when we were growing up, like,

1110
01:17:19,980 --> 01:17:24,100
why are we showing that they are getting undignified?

1111
01:17:24,100 --> 01:17:29,100
Because that's the cultural mindset India had, right?

1112
01:17:29,100 --> 01:17:34,100
And so you should show progressive values for people to adopt.

1113
01:17:34,980 --> 01:17:36,740
So that's why like...

1114
01:17:36,740 --> 01:17:38,540
Yeah, instead of punishing the rapists,

1115
01:17:38,540 --> 01:17:40,140
the victims should just kill themselves.

1116
01:17:40,140 --> 01:17:40,980
Yeah, I don't know.

1117
01:17:40,980 --> 01:17:43,500
Hero would punish the rapists at the end for sure,

1118
01:17:43,500 --> 01:17:47,020
but they just kill themselves because they got raped.

1119
01:17:47,020 --> 01:17:49,700
Yeah, I hope they don't longer do that.

1120
01:17:49,700 --> 01:17:51,140
That is very old school.

1121
01:17:51,140 --> 01:17:51,980
No, on screen?

1122
01:17:51,980 --> 01:17:53,780
No, no, no, they don't do that anymore.

1123
01:17:53,780 --> 01:17:54,620
That's good.

1124
01:17:54,620 --> 01:17:56,980
Oh, one interesting point about this movie, Doom,

1125
01:17:56,980 --> 01:18:00,980
is that it actually inspired an actual bank robbery in Kerala.

1126
01:18:00,980 --> 01:18:02,300
Kili, I don't know if you know about this.

1127
01:18:02,300 --> 01:18:04,380
The Chalembra bank robbery.

1128
01:18:04,380 --> 01:18:05,940
I hope I'm pronouncing it right.

1129
01:18:05,940 --> 01:18:06,780
What is it called?

1130
01:18:06,780 --> 01:18:07,620
Let me go over there.

1131
01:18:07,620 --> 01:18:08,460
Chalembra.

1132
01:18:08,460 --> 01:18:09,300
Chalembra.

1133
01:18:09,300 --> 01:18:11,580
Chalembra in Kerala in 2007.

1134
01:18:11,580 --> 01:18:13,300
Wow, was it successful?

1135
01:18:13,300 --> 01:18:16,980
Yeah, so they did the same thing, like in the end heist of Doom,

1136
01:18:16,980 --> 01:18:19,180
like the final heist at the New Year party,

1137
01:18:19,180 --> 01:18:21,260
they make a hole in their room, right?

1138
01:18:21,260 --> 01:18:22,820
And then they go down.

1139
01:18:22,820 --> 01:18:24,620
So they copied the exact same thing.

1140
01:18:24,620 --> 01:18:25,940
They robbed the bank robbery.

1141
01:18:25,940 --> 01:18:27,420
They robbed the bank in Kerala.

1142
01:18:27,420 --> 01:18:30,100
They got away with 80 million rupees.

1143
01:18:30,100 --> 01:18:32,060
That's a lot of money.

1144
01:18:32,060 --> 01:18:34,020
And they got away with it initially.

1145
01:18:34,020 --> 01:18:35,540
And then there was a big investigation.

1146
01:18:35,540 --> 01:18:38,060
And like about a year later, the police caught them.

1147
01:18:38,060 --> 01:18:40,900
But once the police caught them, the gang leader

1148
01:18:40,900 --> 01:18:44,340
admitted that it was inspired by Doom.

1149
01:18:44,340 --> 01:18:46,540
So it actually made headlines for that.

1150
01:18:46,540 --> 01:18:47,140
I love it.

1151
01:18:47,140 --> 01:18:47,820
That's wild.

1152
01:18:47,820 --> 01:18:48,340
Yeah.

1153
01:18:48,340 --> 01:18:50,340
We were just joking about the blowing.

1154
01:18:50,340 --> 01:18:53,220
So Happy New Year is based off a true story.

1155
01:18:53,220 --> 01:18:56,580
And that true story was actually inspired by Doom.

1156
01:18:56,580 --> 01:18:58,060
It's all connected.

1157
01:18:58,060 --> 01:19:01,580
We are so strongly justified.

1158
01:19:01,580 --> 01:19:04,340
What dumb hotel would have the room above a vault?

1159
01:19:04,340 --> 01:19:05,620
That was a bank that they did.

1160
01:19:05,620 --> 01:19:08,060
They just followed the same thing of making a hole

1161
01:19:08,060 --> 01:19:09,340
and then setting someone down.

1162
01:19:09,340 --> 01:19:13,500
A bank can share a building with a hotel?

1163
01:19:13,500 --> 01:19:14,380
No, other rooms.

1164
01:19:14,380 --> 01:19:15,380
I don't think there's any.

1165
01:19:15,380 --> 01:19:16,380
It can be other rooms.

1166
01:19:16,380 --> 01:19:18,380
It can be like an empty office.

1167
01:19:18,380 --> 01:19:19,380
I love that he's old.

1168
01:19:19,380 --> 01:19:21,140
But I think it's hilarious that at the confession,

1169
01:19:21,140 --> 01:19:23,140
they were literally like, yeah, we got the hotel.

1170
01:19:23,140 --> 01:19:24,060
We got this from Doom.

1171
01:19:24,060 --> 01:19:26,940
I had no idea how to enter into a vault.

1172
01:19:26,940 --> 01:19:29,340
I didn't know that walls connected until I saw Doom.

1173
01:19:29,340 --> 01:19:31,940
The defense lawyer in the court showed, oh, this is what

1174
01:19:31,940 --> 01:19:35,020
this man grew up watching.

1175
01:19:35,020 --> 01:19:36,580
He's innocent.

1176
01:19:36,580 --> 01:19:39,100
A whole generation of bank robbers, they're like, oh,

1177
01:19:39,100 --> 01:19:39,620
if I-

1178
01:19:39,620 --> 01:19:41,020
He grew up watching Doom.

1179
01:19:41,020 --> 01:19:45,740
So it's not his fault. It's Indian media's fault.

1180
01:19:45,740 --> 01:19:47,220
I would have never taken the money

1181
01:19:47,220 --> 01:19:49,340
if I knew if I didn't know that walls connected.

1182
01:19:49,340 --> 01:19:52,380
But then Doom shows me that if I just cut through a wall,

1183
01:19:52,380 --> 01:19:54,340
I can access the other room.

1184
01:19:54,340 --> 01:19:56,260
And I didn't know that.

1185
01:19:56,260 --> 01:19:57,900
Thank you, Doom.

1186
01:19:57,900 --> 01:19:59,420
Doom is amazing.

1187
01:19:59,420 --> 01:19:59,940
Whatever.

1188
01:19:59,940 --> 01:20:02,620
We're going to watch Doom 2 and 3 later.

1189
01:20:02,620 --> 01:20:03,420
Yeah, we have to.

1190
01:20:03,420 --> 01:20:04,580
I don't know if we'll record about it,

1191
01:20:04,580 --> 01:20:07,420
but I think we just need to watch it just for the sake of it.

1192
01:20:07,420 --> 01:20:09,340
Yeah, well, if we watch that shit

1193
01:20:09,340 --> 01:20:12,420
and don't record a podcast about it, I'd be so angry.

1194
01:20:12,420 --> 01:20:13,220
No, we have to.

1195
01:20:13,220 --> 01:20:16,220
No, Doom 2 is actually, again, I don't know.

1196
01:20:16,220 --> 01:20:17,740
I watched it when I was young.

1197
01:20:17,740 --> 01:20:21,340
So Doom 2 actually, I think, has a tighter plot.

1198
01:20:21,340 --> 01:20:22,940
Killy says it's because they're sexier.

1199
01:20:22,940 --> 01:20:24,820
But there's no John Abraham.

1200
01:20:24,820 --> 01:20:25,980
There's Hrithik.

1201
01:20:25,980 --> 01:20:27,580
Oh!

1202
01:20:27,580 --> 01:20:29,140
There's Aishwarya.

1203
01:20:29,140 --> 01:20:29,860
Oh.

1204
01:20:29,860 --> 01:20:30,980
So this is the funny thing.

1205
01:20:30,980 --> 01:20:32,060
Wait, so she's married?

1206
01:20:32,060 --> 01:20:33,260
Is she married to Abhishek in the movie?

1207
01:20:33,260 --> 01:20:34,980
Yeah, she was about, no, no, no.

1208
01:20:34,980 --> 01:20:37,180
She was about to get married to Abhishek

1209
01:20:37,180 --> 01:20:39,580
when Doom 2 was being shot.

1210
01:20:39,580 --> 01:20:40,780
Being shot.

1211
01:20:40,780 --> 01:20:41,660
In real life.

1212
01:20:41,660 --> 01:20:42,500
In real life.

1213
01:20:42,500 --> 01:20:44,220
They were about to get married.

1214
01:20:44,220 --> 01:20:49,100
And on-screen chemistry of Aishwarya and Hrithik

1215
01:20:49,100 --> 01:20:50,340
was like top notch.

1216
01:20:50,340 --> 01:20:53,500
And they already had Jodha Akhbar, another film,

1217
01:20:53,500 --> 01:20:55,540
done where their chemistry was so good.

1218
01:20:55,540 --> 01:20:57,700
And Abhishek was so jealous or something.

1219
01:20:57,700 --> 01:21:01,940
They were not allowed to have kissing and stuff like that.

1220
01:21:01,940 --> 01:21:07,740
And I think the film also removed a kissing

1221
01:21:07,740 --> 01:21:10,180
from when Amitabh Bachchan objected to it

1222
01:21:10,180 --> 01:21:11,140
or something like that.

1223
01:21:11,140 --> 01:21:11,940
Wow.

1224
01:21:11,940 --> 01:21:14,540
So she played the love interest of Hrithik, not Abhishek.

1225
01:21:14,540 --> 01:21:15,980
That is so awkward.

1226
01:21:15,980 --> 01:21:18,300
Of course she's, she, she.

1227
01:21:18,300 --> 01:21:19,100
OK.

1228
01:21:19,100 --> 01:21:21,660
She's out of, she's out of Abhishek's league

1229
01:21:21,660 --> 01:21:23,140
is what Killy is trying to say.

1230
01:21:23,140 --> 01:21:24,140
Yeah.

1231
01:21:24,140 --> 01:21:27,780
Yeah, in films, like, OK, wait, no.

1232
01:21:27,780 --> 01:21:28,900
This is unbelievable.

1233
01:21:28,900 --> 01:21:29,980
Although, actually, actually.

1234
01:21:29,980 --> 01:21:31,620
Doom aspires to be realistic.

1235
01:21:31,620 --> 01:21:33,860
And this chick is way too out of his league.

1236
01:21:33,860 --> 01:21:34,700
We can't do that.

1237
01:21:34,700 --> 01:21:35,620
She's missed, she's missed.

1238
01:21:35,620 --> 01:21:38,940
There is one film where Abhishek plays,

1239
01:21:38,940 --> 01:21:42,660
like, Abhishek and Aishwarya is an on-screen couple.

1240
01:21:42,660 --> 01:21:45,180
Abhishek plays this Indian, like,

1241
01:21:45,180 --> 01:21:48,140
it's a character inspired from this Indian industrialist who

1242
01:21:48,140 --> 01:21:51,780
started Reliance Industries, like, Ambani.

1243
01:21:51,780 --> 01:21:55,060
Ambani family, like, the person, Dhirubhai Ambani,

1244
01:21:55,060 --> 01:21:56,580
who started the Ambani business.

1245
01:21:56,580 --> 01:21:59,140
Like, Abhishek plays that character.

1246
01:21:59,140 --> 01:22:03,620
And Aishwarya is his wife in that film.

1247
01:22:03,620 --> 01:22:05,220
But it's a very grounded film.

1248
01:22:05,220 --> 01:22:08,060
And then, like, yeah, very realistic looking.

1249
01:22:08,060 --> 01:22:11,300
So, yeah, I mean, there, but not in Doom.

1250
01:22:11,300 --> 01:22:11,820
For sure.

1251
01:22:11,820 --> 01:22:13,380
There's also conspiracy theory.

1252
01:22:13,380 --> 01:22:16,540
I think it's interesting for just those.

1253
01:22:16,540 --> 01:22:19,100
The Aishwarya is, like, she's married to Abhishek

1254
01:22:19,100 --> 01:22:21,140
just because that's more socially accepted.

1255
01:22:21,140 --> 01:22:22,740
But she actually has a relationship

1256
01:22:22,740 --> 01:22:24,580
with the father Amitabh.

1257
01:22:24,580 --> 01:22:26,980
But of course, like, the age gap is too much.

1258
01:22:26,980 --> 01:22:29,100
So, like, she just married Abhishek

1259
01:22:29,100 --> 01:22:31,220
so that she could get him into the family.

1260
01:22:31,220 --> 01:22:33,780
Because the dad's dick is that good?

1261
01:22:33,780 --> 01:22:34,420
Like, what?

1262
01:22:34,420 --> 01:22:36,620
Because the dad's like the father of all.

1263
01:22:36,620 --> 01:22:39,260
It's kind of, this humor kind of started

1264
01:22:39,260 --> 01:22:44,380
because there was a film where Abhishek was the hero.

1265
01:22:44,380 --> 01:22:47,340
And Aishwarya has an item song, like,

1266
01:22:47,340 --> 01:22:51,340
an item number where it's like a guest appearance,

1267
01:22:51,340 --> 01:22:52,660
haughty song.

1268
01:22:52,660 --> 01:22:55,820
Kind of like she's a dancer.

1269
01:22:55,820 --> 01:22:58,580
And Amitabh also has a cameo role in that.

1270
01:22:58,580 --> 01:23:01,380
And they share a screen together, like Abhishek, Amitabh,

1271
01:23:01,380 --> 01:23:05,020
and Aishwarya at a dance performance.

1272
01:23:05,020 --> 01:23:07,100
And it was a very catchy song.

1273
01:23:07,100 --> 01:23:08,380
I love that song.

1274
01:23:08,380 --> 01:23:10,300
The film is also good.

1275
01:23:10,300 --> 01:23:15,020
And in that song, Aishwarya has way better chemistry

1276
01:23:15,020 --> 01:23:18,980
with Amitabh than Abhishek.

1277
01:23:18,980 --> 01:23:22,860
So, I mean, to be honest, like, I mean, the story was like that.

1278
01:23:22,860 --> 01:23:25,500
Because Abhishek already had a love interest in that film.

1279
01:23:25,500 --> 01:23:27,460
And Amitabh is just like a random guy who's

1280
01:23:27,460 --> 01:23:29,020
just sitting on this dancer.

1281
01:23:29,020 --> 01:23:31,900
So, and yeah, but whatever.

1282
01:23:31,900 --> 01:23:35,220
Like, he has a better chemistry with Aishwarya.

1283
01:23:35,220 --> 01:23:37,660
So from there, it kind of started the rumor

1284
01:23:37,660 --> 01:23:41,260
that, oh, it's him, it's not Abhishek.

1285
01:23:41,260 --> 01:23:43,180
And also, like, it sucks when your dad keeps

1286
01:23:43,180 --> 01:23:46,180
picking up your girlfriend.

1287
01:23:46,180 --> 01:23:48,420
It's also like, yeah, Abhishek got always

1288
01:23:48,420 --> 01:23:50,660
shadowed by his father's.

1289
01:23:50,660 --> 01:23:53,140
Like, yeah, but it's too big of a legacy to fight.

1290
01:23:53,140 --> 01:23:53,500
Yeah.

1291
01:23:53,500 --> 01:23:57,420
I mean, Abhishek was not, Abhishek was not,

1292
01:23:57,420 --> 01:24:00,540
according to Bollywood, like Bollywood legacy,

1293
01:24:00,540 --> 01:24:03,500
like he's not a megastar material.

1294
01:24:03,500 --> 01:24:04,460
He's a good actor.

1295
01:24:04,460 --> 01:24:06,100
Abhishek is a really good actor.

1296
01:24:06,100 --> 01:24:07,700
But he's not a megastar material.

1297
01:24:07,700 --> 01:24:09,860
I wonder how much of that just comes down to appearance.

1298
01:24:09,860 --> 01:24:11,020
And you guys brought this up also

1299
01:24:11,020 --> 01:24:11,740
in the beginning, where you're like,

1300
01:24:11,740 --> 01:24:15,380
the villain is so much more attractive than the protagonist.

1301
01:24:15,380 --> 01:24:15,900
How much of-

1302
01:24:15,900 --> 01:24:19,060
No, then you see, it's not only look.

1303
01:24:19,060 --> 01:24:23,740
Because if you think of it, Shah Rukh is not that good looking.

1304
01:24:23,740 --> 01:24:25,460
I mean, he has this charm.

1305
01:24:25,460 --> 01:24:27,580
He was not, like, when he became super hit.

1306
01:24:27,580 --> 01:24:29,620
I think you might have just offended so many people.

1307
01:24:29,620 --> 01:24:30,900
No, no, no, no.

1308
01:24:30,900 --> 01:24:32,340
Shah Rukh's fans add-

1309
01:24:32,340 --> 01:24:33,100
He's like Bollywood.

1310
01:24:33,100 --> 01:24:34,660
He looked better as he ages.

1311
01:24:34,660 --> 01:24:35,260
Yeah, yeah.

1312
01:24:35,260 --> 01:24:36,260
He just like-

1313
01:24:36,260 --> 01:24:39,020
Shah Rukh's fan has been, most, like,

1314
01:24:39,020 --> 01:24:41,460
a lot of his fans have been admitting to this fact.

1315
01:24:41,460 --> 01:24:44,940
And they kind of take pride in that, that, oh, this guy was

1316
01:24:44,940 --> 01:24:47,820
not, like, so good looking when he started his career.

1317
01:24:47,820 --> 01:24:52,180
But he still became a megastar because of his charisma,

1318
01:24:52,180 --> 01:24:53,220
because of his skills.

1319
01:24:53,220 --> 01:24:55,020
So there you go.

1320
01:24:55,020 --> 01:24:57,060
Like, Shah Rukh was not that good looking.

1321
01:24:57,060 --> 01:24:57,540
But-

1322
01:24:57,540 --> 01:24:59,180
He was still fair skinned relatively.

1323
01:24:59,180 --> 01:25:00,900
I mean, not in his first film.

1324
01:25:00,900 --> 01:25:03,060
But after that, he got fairer and fairer progressively.

1325
01:25:03,060 --> 01:25:04,660
Yeah, maybe he was put in fairly lovely.

1326
01:25:04,660 --> 01:25:06,580
Amir Khan is in Doom 3.

1327
01:25:06,580 --> 01:25:08,580
So we have to watch that too.

1328
01:25:08,580 --> 01:25:09,260
That's bad.

1329
01:25:09,260 --> 01:25:12,060
That's bad, worse than Doom, in my opinion.

1330
01:25:12,060 --> 01:25:12,540
I don't know.

1331
01:25:12,540 --> 01:25:13,620
Keeley always says that Amir Khan's

1332
01:25:13,620 --> 01:25:14,700
one of his favorite actors.

1333
01:25:14,700 --> 01:25:16,620
But you've always hated most of his films.

1334
01:25:16,620 --> 01:25:18,700
I think I kind of expect a lot from him,

1335
01:25:18,700 --> 01:25:21,820
because he has delivered really good films.

1336
01:25:21,820 --> 01:25:22,340
Yeah.

1337
01:25:22,340 --> 01:25:23,500
Which we're not watching.

1338
01:25:23,500 --> 01:25:24,580
We have to watch.

1339
01:25:24,580 --> 01:25:26,940
Rang De Basanti, you've got to watch.

1340
01:25:26,940 --> 01:25:31,900
Because that would be really good in context

1341
01:25:31,900 --> 01:25:35,820
of the CEO murder that kind of riled up

1342
01:25:35,820 --> 01:25:39,020
the whole internet and the whole world.

1343
01:25:39,020 --> 01:25:41,020
Because I was telling, yeah, Bollywood

1344
01:25:41,020 --> 01:25:45,700
has been the stories a lot where the protagonists shoot up

1345
01:25:45,700 --> 01:25:49,460
bad people who are in power position all the time.

1346
01:25:49,460 --> 01:25:54,220
And in that film, they kill the Home Minister of India.

1347
01:25:54,220 --> 01:25:55,100
The heroes kill him.

1348
01:25:55,100 --> 01:25:56,660
Home Minister of India, yeah.

1349
01:25:56,660 --> 01:25:58,540
And if you want to watch another Abhishek film,

1350
01:25:58,540 --> 01:26:01,260
there's Dostana, where he plays a gay couple with-

1351
01:26:01,260 --> 01:26:02,260
I've never watched that film.

1352
01:26:02,260 --> 01:26:02,820
What's the other?

1353
01:26:02,820 --> 01:26:03,380
I don't know who his co-stars are.

1354
01:26:03,380 --> 01:26:04,660
He's not a gay couple.

1355
01:26:04,660 --> 01:26:05,060
He's not.

1356
01:26:05,060 --> 01:26:06,580
He's just trying to be Priyanka Chopra.

1357
01:26:06,580 --> 01:26:07,220
They're pretending.

1358
01:26:07,220 --> 01:26:08,180
It's a really good film.

1359
01:26:08,180 --> 01:26:09,300
They're pretending.

1360
01:26:09,300 --> 01:26:11,220
It's kind of homophobic to some degree.

1361
01:26:11,220 --> 01:26:12,260
To rent a house.

1362
01:26:12,260 --> 01:26:15,220
Because they have a young woman in the house,

1363
01:26:15,220 --> 01:26:20,940
they don't want to rent a room to bachelors, guys.

1364
01:26:20,940 --> 01:26:22,860
So they pretend to be a gay couple to rent a house.

1365
01:26:22,860 --> 01:26:25,340
OK, that fits my theory that Amir Khan looks like Tom Hanks,

1366
01:26:25,340 --> 01:26:27,620
because Tom Hanks' first TV show was

1367
01:26:27,620 --> 01:26:31,420
Buzm Buddies, where him and a fellow guy friend pretend

1368
01:26:31,420 --> 01:26:33,340
to be women to live in a female dormitory.

1369
01:26:33,340 --> 01:26:35,220
She's talking about Abhishek Bachchan.

1370
01:26:35,220 --> 01:26:36,860
OK, never mind.

1371
01:26:36,860 --> 01:26:39,180
But yeah, this is, yeah.

1372
01:26:39,180 --> 01:26:40,100
We should watch that.

1373
01:26:40,100 --> 01:26:41,100
That's a very good movie.

1374
01:26:41,100 --> 01:26:43,700
We should watch how homophobic Bollywood could get.

1375
01:26:43,700 --> 01:26:44,220
Yeah, yeah.

1376
01:26:44,220 --> 01:26:44,740
Oh, for sure.

1377
01:26:44,740 --> 01:26:46,180
We had a Happy New Year, guys.

1378
01:26:46,180 --> 01:26:48,020
We had a sneak peek in Happy New Year.

1379
01:26:48,020 --> 01:26:49,220
It almost feels like they're trying

1380
01:26:49,220 --> 01:26:52,700
to introduce gay topics, but in a homophobic, straight man

1381
01:26:52,700 --> 01:26:56,500
pretending to be gay for a woman kind of thing, which is, yeah.

1382
01:26:56,500 --> 01:27:00,980
That's how queer I was when men were first getting acceptable

1383
01:27:00,980 --> 01:27:02,940
with gay men in America.

1384
01:27:02,940 --> 01:27:05,260
We're like, queer is cool because the gay men

1385
01:27:05,260 --> 01:27:06,860
are helping me pick up chicks.

1386
01:27:06,860 --> 01:27:10,740
So as long as the gay men help the straight men achieve

1387
01:27:10,740 --> 01:27:13,100
their goal of getting laid, they're cool.

1388
01:27:13,100 --> 01:27:16,500
And then otherwise, they don't like them.

1389
01:27:16,500 --> 01:27:20,820
So then the statement is, you don't like lesbians.

1390
01:27:20,820 --> 01:27:21,420
Yeah.

1391
01:27:21,420 --> 01:27:24,700
OK, so anyways, we got to work and stuff.

1392
01:27:24,700 --> 01:27:26,620
Nicky's getting anxious.

1393
01:27:26,620 --> 01:27:27,940
Let's go.

1394
01:27:27,940 --> 01:27:29,260
Any other final thoughts on Doom?

1395
01:27:29,260 --> 01:27:30,580
You mean Doom.

1396
01:27:30,580 --> 01:27:32,860
Doom.

1397
01:27:32,860 --> 01:27:35,100
Doom, Doom.

1398
01:27:35,100 --> 01:27:38,100
We need to ask Doom?

1399
01:27:38,100 --> 01:27:38,900
Doom?

1400
01:27:38,900 --> 01:27:39,900
Wait, wait.

1401
01:27:39,900 --> 01:27:43,660
Can we all just pronounce it right before we close this podcast?

1402
01:27:43,660 --> 01:27:44,820
Doom.

1403
01:27:44,820 --> 01:27:45,580
Doom.

1404
01:27:45,580 --> 01:27:46,700
Doom.

1405
01:27:46,700 --> 01:27:47,340
Doom.

1406
01:27:47,340 --> 01:27:49,540
Doom.

1407
01:27:49,540 --> 01:27:50,500
I am Punjabi.

1408
01:27:50,500 --> 01:27:54,420
No, can you tell me that I say it better than both Nicky and Adam?

1409
01:27:54,420 --> 01:27:55,380
The best.

1410
01:27:55,380 --> 01:27:57,100
Doom.

1411
01:27:57,100 --> 01:27:58,140
Doom.

1412
01:27:58,140 --> 01:27:58,620
Doom.

1413
01:27:58,620 --> 01:27:59,100
Doom.

1414
01:27:59,100 --> 01:28:00,140
Do different.

1415
01:28:00,140 --> 01:28:01,100
Yeah, see?

1416
01:28:01,100 --> 01:28:01,820
OK, whatever.

1417
01:28:01,820 --> 01:28:04,420
White boy beat me.

1418
01:28:04,420 --> 01:28:07,100
Sorry, I'm better at speaking this than you are.

1419
01:28:07,100 --> 01:28:09,660
I don't know what to tell you.

1420
01:28:09,660 --> 01:28:11,020
All right, bye.

1421
01:28:11,020 --> 01:28:25,380
Bye.
