🎬 Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham: Bollywood Royalty, Family Drama, and Helicopters! 🎬

In this episode of Fear of Stairs: Desi Films Decoded, we’re tackling one of Bollywood’s most iconic family sagas: Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham (K3G). This film has it all—helicopters, melodrama, and enough family tension to make a Succession fan blush. Plus, did we mention the helicopters? 🚁

Join us as we chat about:

・ The over-the-top wealth of the Raichand family, where being banished means living in a palace in London. Rough life, right? 🙄

・ Shah Rukh Khan playing the perfect son who just can’t catch a break from his emotionally constipated dad, Amitabh Bachchan.

・ Patriarchy on steroids: Why the dad says "I said it, didn't I?" and everyone just has to deal with it. 😤

・ The epic musical numbers, including a prom in the UK (because why not?) and a song that literally made British people stand up and cry. 🇮🇳🎤

・ Why K3G is basically the Bridgerton of Bollywood—extravagant, emotional, and oh-so-dramatic.

Whether you’re a Bollywood newbie or a seasoned fan, we’re here to break down the family drama, epic love stories, and questionable fashion choices (looking at you, Pooja). So grab your popcorn, hit play, and let’s figure out together if Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham is the ultimate family film or just another melodramatic fever dream.

Spoiler alert: It's both. 😂
