22 Years Of Jhankaar Beats: How Bollywood Redefined Brotherhood Through Emotionally Rich Friendships
As Jhankaar Beats completes 22 years, it marks not just the anniversary of a cult classic, but also a pivotal moment in Bollywood's evolution—when male friendships moved beyond machismo and action into spaces of vulnerability, emotional honesty, and lifelong bonding. From the early 2000s onwards, a wave of films began exploring the depth, complexities, and quiet power of brotherhood through friendship. Here are five standout films that led this emotional revolution: Jhankaar Beats (2003) Directed by Sujoy Ghosh, this slice-of-life film broke the stereotype of the stoic male hero. It followed Deep and Rishi—two ad executives balancing work, crumbling marriages, and fatherhood—bonding over their shared love for R.D. Burman. Through music, laughter, and honest conversations, Jhankaar Beats portrayed friendship as therapy, capturing how male bonds can be messy, supportive, and emotionally rich. Even today, it resonates as a quiet anthem for friends who've held each other through life's chaos. Dil Chahta Hai (2001) This Farhan Akhtar directorial changed the language of urban male friendship in cinema. Akash, Sameer, and Sid were flawed, distinct, and didn't always agree—but their bond remained unbreakable. Whether dealing with heartbreak, ambition, or creative differences, the trio's journey showed that real brotherhood isn't about being the same—it's about showing up, even when it's hard. The film redefined friendship for an entire generation and remains a cultural touchstone. Rang De Basanti (2006) Friendship takes a radical turn in Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra's Rang De Basanti. What starts as college camaraderie among DJ, Karan, Sukhi, Aslam, and others transforms into a passionate crusade for justice after a personal tragedy. Their collective grief becomes a powerful engine for activism, and their friendship evolves into a deeper sense of brotherhood—one rooted in shared pain, moral conviction, and sacrifice. Kai Po Che! (2013) Based on Chetan Bhagat's novel The 3 Mistakes of My Life, this Abhishek Kapoor film chronicled the friendship of Ishaan, Omi, and Govind amidst Gujarat's political and communal turbulence. The story revealed how ambition, religion, and betrayal can strain even the strongest friendships—but also how love, forgiveness, and shared history can sometimes offer redemption. Kai Po Che! portrayed brotherhood as fragile yet resilient, painting a realistic picture of how friendships endure—or don't—under pressure. Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara (2011) Zoya Akhtar's road-trip drama turned a bachelor vacation into a soulful journey of healing, fear-conquering, and reconnection. Arjun, Kabir, and Imran, each battling inner conflicts, learn to confront their past, open up, and support each other's growth. Their bond strengthens not through shared jokes alone, but through emotional exposure and vulnerability. ZNMD redefined male friendship by proving that empathy and emotional courage are just as masculine as strength and success. A Legacy of Friendship That Lasts Each of these films—from Jhankaar Beats to ZNMD—paved the way for a more nuanced portrayal of male friendships in Indian cinema. They moved beyond the macho to explore emotional intimacy, forgiveness, loyalty, and growth. Whether through laughter or loss, fights or forgiveness, these stories remind us that the friends who walk beside us through life's toughest moments are more than friends — they're chosen family.

East 17 star baptised by Krays henchman and now 'feels like god'
Terry Coldwell, who found stardom alongside East 17 band members Tony Mortimer, Brian Harvey and John Hendy back in the 1990s, took a big spiritual step on Sunday Former East 17 star Terry Coldwell has been baptised by a former henchman to the notorious Kray twins. Ex-gangster Chris Lambrianou performed the service in London's East End as Terry declared his faith in front of the singer's friends. He was part of the original line-up of East 17, which included Brian Harvey, Tony Mortimer and John Hendy. The group had hits including Stay Another Day, Deep, Steam as well as If I Ever Fall In Love. The musician, who become a father of six after his wife gave birth to a baby girl back in 2022, says the experience felt incredible and explained how he found God during a prison sentence for armed robbery. He has totally transformed his life and decided to take a big step after turning things around. 'I've just been baptised and I feel absolutely amazing. The service has been phenomenal today. I just feel great," he told MailOnline after Sunday's service at the River Church in Canning Town. "I feel it was a long time coming and I'm really glad I did it." Terry, John and Tony featured on the BBC2 documentary Boybands Forever recently to remember their time in the popular band and were filmed separately. "We don't talk," said Terry. "But I don't hold any grudges. There were good times and there were bad times but that's like in any job. "We lived together basically, we worked for three years without a day off so of course we argued about things. But I'm grateful for the times I shared with them." Brian was kicked out of the group in the late 90s after making a controversial statement in the press that it's 'cool to take drugs' and making positive comments about ecstasy. Meanwhile, Tony left a few months later due to creative differences. Robbie joined East 17 in early 2014 and John and Terry became the only original members left in the group. They were a supporting act for B*Witched's Australia and New Zealand tour alongside Atomic Kitten, S Club 3, and Liberty X. Brian revealed he's on benefits despite shifting a staggering 22 million records with the nineties legends. Brian stepped away from the spotlight after trying to go solo - and has now revealed his financial woes as a result. Taking to TikTok, smoking a a cigarette, ranting furiously about "trolls" who say he shouldn't be claiming benefits, he fumes: "I'm entitled to benefits. I sold 22 million records, that's not a big-up, it's a fact!" Sharing a video from outside his local council office, he can then be heard shouting: "Who put Walthamstow on the map? "What are you on about, wasting your time? You wouldn't have a job here if it weren't for me paying tax on 22 million f*****g records. F**k you! F**k you!"
