My wife and I went to see an Indian film last evening - "Jab Harry Met Sejal"; this was one of the painful things to happen to me this week, other than exercising my calf muscle; that can heal but this pain might never heal.
This movie is based on a Hollywood film - When Harry Met Sally. Here are 20 reasons not to watch the film:
This movie is based on a Hollywood film - When Harry Met Sally. Here are 20 reasons not to watch the film:
- Its a straight copy of an English film. No brains were used to write the story!
- There isn't a story which would inspire anyone.
- Every Bollywood film has a few good songs, this didn't have any!
- Straight away stereotypes Punjabis, Gujratis & Bangaladeshis.
- All Punjabis are not tractor driving singers.
- Not all Punjabis are loud.
- Not all Punjabis keep cursing like Shahrukh Khan in this film.
- Punjabis have become Presidents, Prime ministers, Finance Ministers & Defence Ministers of democracies across the globe; what else does one need to do to not be cast in a stereotypical role?
- Not all Gujratis are diamond merchants, some become tea vendors or Prime Ministers
- Not all Gujratis speak with "rey rey rey" at the end of a sentence.
- No all Bangladeshis are struggling with flooding in Bangladesh. Some go and get a Nobel Peace prize.
- Not all Bangladeshis are illegal migrants in Europe.
- Shahrukh Khan has a history back in India and keep crying through the film; but no mention of what the history is! Get a grip Mr Khan, the film isn't interested in showing your histroy, so you should stop crying about it!
- Anshka Sharma has a fiancé and is trying to find a lost ring in Europe; shouldn't she check her bag first?
- Anshka Sharma has a fiancé and is trying to find a lost ring in Europe; shouldn't she go back and fix her breaking relationship?
- Anshka Sharma has a fiancé and is trying to find a lost ring in Europe; shouldn't she stop going to pubs, bars and mess with the mafia?
- Anshka Sharma has a fiancé and is trying to find a lost ring in Europe; shouldn't she stop dancing at the drop of a hat?
- Anshka Sharma has a diamond business and is trying to find a lost ring in Europe; shouldn't she speak with her company's designer and get a new ring made?
- My wife says - even the clothes were not that great
- One might end up spending £50 for a night out including this film. No worth it!
