Episode 5 Of The Punjabi Cinema Show: The fifth episode of our podcast series confers about Jee Aayan Nu and Asa Nu Maan Watna Da.
Titled 'Jee Aayan Nu, Asa Nu Maan Watna Da Childhood Nostalgia', the fifth episode of 'The Punjabi Cinema Show' has released today. Had it not been for a technical difficulty, this episode was supposed to be the season opener of our podcast series.
In what is a pretty self-descriptive title, Episode 5 deals with our nostalgia around two memorable Punjabi movies namely 'Jee Aayan Nu' (2002) and 'Asa Nu Maan Watna Da' (2004). In addition to witnessing director Manmohan Singh making a directorial comeback, these movies had also kick-started the acting career of Harbhajan Mann.
Made at a time when nothing else was being made in the Punjabi film industry, Jee Aayan Nu and Asa Nu Maan Watna Da will always remain special for the Punjabi viewers. Moreover, given the stature of these movies and the names involved, they deserved an episode in The Punjabi Mania Show.
In this episode, host Yasmin Kaur is joined by core team members Sameer Valecha, Rehaan Singh and Dixit Bhargav (friend of the podcast) as the four of them discuss their first and most memorable memories attached with Jee Aayan Nu and Asa Nu Maan Watna Da.
Additionally, they also put forward their favourite scenes and characters and interesting facts from these movies. Considering how almost a couple of decades have passed since the release of these movies, the core team also expressed its differences with respect to some scenes and sequences which appear unrealistic in the modern contemporary times.
