Total chaos — and comedy gold.In this episode of The Watchlist with Jyotika, we rewind to Love Ke Liye Kuch Bhi Karega (2001) — the crime-comedy caper where Saif Ali Khan, Fardeen Khan, and Aftab Shivdasani set out to stage a kidnapping… only for things to take a hilariously dangerous turn. Add Sonali Bendre, Twinkle Khanna, Johnny Lever, and a dash of real kidnappers to the mix, and you’ve got a ride that’s equal parts madness and masti.

    Some films don’t just tell a story they hold up a mirror to a generation’s dreams, disillusionments, and deep contradictions. Hazaaron Khwaishein Aisi is one of those films. In this episode of The Watchlist with Jyotika, we revisit Sudhir Mishra’s quietly explosive political drama set in 1970s India, a time of Emergency, rebellion, and ideological chaos. Through the lives of Siddharth, Geeta, and Vikram, the film explores how love, power, and politics intertwine and how the personal can never really be separated from the political. It’s a film that doesn’t offer easy answers, but leaves you with haunting questions. What is worth fighting for? Who pays the price of change? And how many of our own khwaishein survive the system? Press play to rediscover a cult classic that remains just as relevant and just as devastating today
