Indian song on "Late Night with Conan O’Brien"

edit

do someone know which song song is being played on "Rejected Late Night Directors" from 6/14/2002? I had no success with AHA or shazam. YouTube link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZLpeDiEXmIQ (on 6:39) שטרודל מאן (talk) 19:51, 12 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

One possibility is that the song (see the segment beginning at 6:38 in the clip) was a parody written specifically for the skit by the show's in-house band, The Max Weinberg 7.

Comments say the lyrics don't match up with the captions, so I doubt it. Aaron Liu (talk) 13:53, 13 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
It's from "Paani Re Paani", composed by Laxmikant–Pyarelal, lyrics by Rajkavi Inderjeet Singh Tulsi, performed by Mukesh and Lata Mangeshkar. See also Shor. ---Sluzzelin talk 21:08, 14 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Movie to ID

edit

This is frightfully little to go on, but you never know! I saw a bit of a movie a long time ago - probably late 1980s, maybe early 90s, though the film could have been older. The only scene I recall takes place in some kind post-apocalyptic future. Raiders are terrorizing some family and one of the nasty things they do is to dangle someone (or maybe a pet?) into a water well by way of barbed wire. A child(?) is then forced to try holding the wire to prevent the person/pet from drowning/falling, which then obviously tears their hands up horribly. Like, I said - not much, but I'm curious what this could have been. Any suggestions? Matt Deres (talk) 22:09, 12 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately I had to use an LLM for this. It returned https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0097138/plotsummary. Aaron Liu (talk) 00:25, 13 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
So it would be Cyborg (film)? ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots00:58, 13 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Huh. I wasn't expecting it to be a JCVD flick, but that plot summary sure lines up well. Our article suggests it's a terrible movie, but maybe I can stomach it long enough to see if anything else jogs my memory. Thanks very much! Matt Deres (talk) 12:27, 13 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
