Sorry, but if I didn't hear it from their (the cast's) mouth, I didn't believe it 😛 I only trusted in whatever they said. However, I do get your point. As I've been repeatedly saying the movie comes with its flaws and a few loopholes, but I enjoyed it nonetheless cuz I could see SRK the actor that I so badly craved to see after his recent movies! He overacted in Don2 and Ra1 ... but, this time he didn't disappoint me. But, adding to that, what worked was the chemistry he had w/ both (although some may only see it w/ Anu or just Kat). I dunno where the YRF team promoted as "epic"...yes, if you go by their YT channel, all those music videos with "3 Masters-Gulzar, AR Rahman, YC" was quite bragging I agree. And I know that ppl also generally had expectations, but if they are expecting YC movies to be realistic all of a sudden, then I don't have much to say. They were never realistic. Yes, I wished they could've tightened the script more, in terms of logic. But, one thing to note is that Aditya Chopra was highly involved with this movie...he wrote the screenplay and dialogues, so I dunno, I guess we were warned ?!? 😆


Not asking you to believe anything, because I'm not saying it EITHER. Nowhere in my posts did I say that SRK, Katrina, or Anushka make high claims about this movie. All I'm trying to say is that in GENERAL, people expect more from SRK than they expect from say, Akshay Kumar or Salman Khan. That's all.

Obviously, there is nothing wrong with liking this movie. If a person can like shitty films like ETT or Ready (they're pretty shitty imo), then liking JTHJ is no crime and doesn't make anyone look stupid. Same way, not liking the movie doesn't make anyone look stupid either.

if everyone always tried to think from the character's perspective, then no one would ever dislike ANY movie or ANY role.

In that case, every single scene in Bollywood is justified!

It's just a difference of opinion TBH.
Everyone dislikes SOMEthing

@All

I have not seen JTHJ , so I have no idea what Meera said in the film. I am okay with ppl finding Meera and God's barter system OTT but you have to understand that you do not know every single person in the world and you do not know how someone relates to God.

What is RIDICULOUS /OTT to you is someone's FAITH. Negate it but don't humiliate it.

That whole negotiating with the Jesus was pretty stupid. You really think God is that selfish that he will only give you something if he takes something away from you ? I do not believe that and thats why to me it was a stupid reason to go away from Samar. That was the biggest flaw of the film right there and major reasons why alot of ppl will not sympathise with Meera.

See that is what we are discussing here...we are trying to look at it from Meera's perspective...ya some will find it stupid...some won't ...it made sense to some of us...and thats what is being discussed here😛

@Honey - You are you and that instantly means that someone else's faith will not be in sync with you. But that doesn't make the other person stupid. It just makes the other person DIFFERENT.

As they say, there are two sides to a coin. For many ppl that whole thing about deals w/ God was ridiculous, but for others it was understandable. And I think instead of just trashing the movie, we could rather discuss it...there could be a whole healthy debate around it for all we know cuz essentially, this was the turning point of the story. More than justifying, I'm merely presenting that other side to the coin. The characters are not perfect in the movie (and I don't demand them to be either)...I didn't like Samar's arrogance infront of God cuz it contradicts my own beliefs. But, I don't go on trashing the movie/character cuz of it. Gahh, I think I'm tired of talking...hope you understood 😳
