From 'Jaane Bhi Do Yaaro' To 'Tandav', It Is Now Easier To âHurt' Sentiments The Mahabharat scene in the older film would have enraged today's touchy Hindutva warriors. A still from the Mahabharat scene in 'Jaane Bhi Do Yaaro'. Photo: Screengrab/Shemaroo The Mahabharata scene at the end Jaane Bhi Do Yaaro is fondly remembered even today, almost 40 years after the film released. It is a long, 12-minute sequence full of farce, slapstick, and some truly witty lines, all done at a breakneck speed, heightened by the imaginative editing of Renu Saluja.  As the Pandavas and the Kauravas tussle for the hand of Draupadi, who Yudishthir loses in gambling, two men intrude and try to snatch her away. On the screen is an array of top-flight talent â Naseeruddin Shah, Om Puri, Pankaj Kapur, Vidhu Vinod Chopra, Ravi Baswani, Neeta Gupta and a quite dead Satish Shah â draped in a sari and on roller skates, being dragged from one pair of hands to another. If this sounds bizarre, on the screen it is positively surreal â and funny, of course.
