Reflecting on the legacy of Lagaan, Gadar, Dil Chahta Hai and Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara, which all celebrate big anniversaries this summer.

The final episode of this season's Beyond Bollywood Podcast puts the spotlight on four big hits that are celebrating big anniversaries this summer. Lagaan, Gadar and Dil Chahta Hai turn 20 years old, and Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara (ZNMD) was released a decade ago. What are the legacies of each film? Was 2001 a career-changing year for Aamir Khan? Could you relate to Hrithik Roshan, Farhan Akhtar or Abhay Deol's characters in ZNMD? Have these films stood the test of time or are they problematic for a 2021 audience? Join Haroon with podcaster Raj Pander and Akanksha Bhatia, who is the sub-editor of Scoop Woop, as they dissect each film without a tinted lens.
