Bollywood Divine, Thy Kingdom come!

Dangerously running out of topics.. so made a small attempt to scrutinize a few Bollywood characters that gracefully went down the most acclaimed genre of disastrously made movies.

Tony of Kites.

Rich, handsome, flirty. He was engaged to the girl he loved, and suddenly on the previous day of  marriage, his sister’s fiancĂ©e(Hrithik) woos and abducts his fiancee(Barbara). After that, the evil heads steal his money; ruin the peace and reputation of his family. Hrithik is seen ‘apologizing’ to him with a gun pointed at his forehead and cheating him yet again, with two million dollars.

 What is this guy supposed to do? Sit at home and pray for their well being?

He is flirty, possessive. Who isn’t?

And finally he follows the missing couple who are ‘madly in love’ (read lust)…which he does because he is manly and has guts. And kills neither.

So who is the villain here?

Preity Zinta of Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna


She is a pretty, fashionable, dutiful family woman and a working mother. She takes care of her son, excels at work, cooks at home, picks up and drops their son at school. She likes to party. Her husband SRK does none of these, and limps his way to immorality. He confesses that to her, assuming an expression that couldn't have been lighter. She slaps him modestly.

 Suddenly she is a villain.

If he doesn’t like to party, don’t!! Please! This woman doesn’t party by leaving the house in a mess, nor does she flirt with anyone in spite of her being in fashion, and the environment she works in might offer her millions of chances to. She choosing to party was way holier than her husband who spent the same night with a woman of his choice.

He finally leaves her and ends up with ‘woh’.

And we are supposed to shed tears of joy (apart from the money spent on the ticket) for the ridiculously immoral couple.


Abhishek Bachchan of Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna

When Rani confesses to him about her affair with SRK, he creates a tantrum, which any husband worth his salt will. He is undoubtedly the most lovable guy any girl would crave for. He likes to party, while Rani doesn't (she behaves like a 75 year old).
Instead she even humiliates her husband at parties amidst thousands of hot girls and sleeps with a married man who has a son too. So she can do anything for love (read lust again), and turns out to be the heroine, while Abhishek ..poor soul is caught in a gray light.

Here is a standing ovation for Rani.


Anushka in Rab ne bana di Jodi.

Despite being saved from a disaster, she continues to treat her husband like a watchdog. She is a typical village girl and one cant comprehend which Prince Charming was she expecting to come for her. Consequently, she joins a dance class (a post marriage behavioral class would have done good for her) and is led into temptation by her dance partner, even thinks about eloping with him....when the bell of morality rang with a bang in her head, tuned with ‘Tujh mein rab dikhta hai’... This lady however is alarmed at how her lover and husband are one and the same (but we don’t know whether she is happy or not).

So SRK becomes the Holy One by forgiving her trespasses.

 Now that he had learnt to dance, he is allowed inside the house as well!

Here is a big round of applause to the wife of the millennium.

There are much more, I know...but winding up here ..:D will come up with some more later ;-)
