Awful and Awesome Ep 375: Nikhil Taneja on Freedom at Midnight, Kal Ho Naa Ho

While discussing Kal Ho Naa Ho’s re-release:

Nikhil: There’s a moment where Shahrukh comes on screen. You just see his back, and the entire auditorium started hooting!

Abhinandan: No one has had the kind of screen presence Shahrukh has since Amitabh Bachhan. 

Rajyasree: How about Akshay?

(Abhinandan gives a pensive stare to Rajyasree)

This and a whole lot of awful and awesome as Abhinandan Sekhri, Rajyasree Sen, and this week’s special guest Nikhil Taneja discuss the series Freedom at Midnight, and the films The Substance and Kal Ho Naa Ho.
