Koi… Mil Gaya was a boy-meets-alien family film; its sequel is a superhero picture, and that turn is the strangest franchise pivot either of us can name. Rakesh Roshan's Krrish sends Hrithik Roshan's Krishna into the wilderness with his grandmother, then to Singapore after Priyanka Chopra. The superhero business fills about a third of a two-and-three-quarter-hour film, and the rest is romance and musical numbers. Is that a flaw, or the most interesting thing about it?

The Bollywood Cinema Club's Chris Stachiw, the Doctor of Podcasting, and Richard Hatem (screenwriter and producer) talk the missing chemistry at the film's center, comic-book fight scenes against the brooding Nolan model, why Krishna is barely a character in a film named after him, and what the 2013 sequel might do next.
