This week on ‘Has it Aged Well?’ We’re covering the iconic bhai with a golden heart, bole toh Munnabhai. Joining Abbas and Urjita to discuss Munna and Circuit’s first cinematic outing ‘Munnabhai MBBS’ is comedian and writer Vrinda Bhagchandani. Topics discussed include: Munna and Circuit’s ‘Bhai in the streets, simp in the sheets’ attitude, Raju Hirani’s knack of pulling off unreal film premises by inserting heart and soul and whether it backfires at times, Vrinda’s inspiration to write comedy through this film, the split verdict in the medical community, Abbas’ personal connection with this film as a dental student, the comical nuances of the cast, Boman Irani and Arshad Warsi’s immense contribution, and whether the ‘fish out of water’ premise is evergreen.
