Bandar: Bobby Deol Film Disses Subhash Ghai's Trimurti
5 Jun
Summary
- The film Bandar was released on June 5, 2026.
- A scene references Subhash Ghai's 1995 film Trimurti.
- Trimurti, starring SRK, was a box office flop despite a strong opening.
The film Bandar, starring Bobby Deol and directed by Anurag Kashyap, premiered on June 5, 2026, and has garnered attention for its daring content. The narrative intersperses shocking moments with humor, including a pointed reference to Subhash Ghai's 1995 film Trimurti.
In an early scene, Bobby Deol's character, Samar Mehra, is accused of serious charges. The police officer, Jitendra Joshi, comically refers to them as the 'Trimurti of charges' and directly invokes Ghai's film, stating, 'Subhash Ghai ki tarah tu bhi doobega.' This meta-commentary highlights the less successful fate of the earlier movie.
Trimurti, released on December 22, 1995, featured Shah Rukh Khan, Jackie Shroff, and Anil Kapoor. Although it achieved a historic Rs. 1.06 crore opening day, the film's collections rapidly declined, leading to its declaration as a flop.
