Q is for Qayamat ho

Does anyone remember Doordarshan's Baingan Raja from the late 80s? (Gaaah, I feel old even talking about it.)

When I saw Abhishek Bachchan in this song from the movie Tera Jadoo Chal Gaya (2000), my very first thought was 'OMG BAINGAN RAJA!'


See for yourselves!


Baingan Raja also has magical powers. Check out the levitating leg.


It's so refreshing to see a thumka from the hero for once, even though the heroine is right there dressed in a thumka-friendly outfit.


Baingan Raja undergoes several costume changes in the song. Including this outfit that he borrowed from Daler Mehendi. And when you wear a Daler Mehendi oufit, you gotta do some tunak tunak. It's mandatory.


Imagining the wedding photoshoot? Check out how her outfit pales in comparison to his.


Presenting once again, the green to shame all greens.

Check it out.
