Yeah I am generalizing the way punchanma generalises Indian females... In fact, the females shown in the film don't represent even 10 per cent of India's women. Even today girls face unsaid hardships in their day-to-day lives, many girls quit studies after school because the colleges are far off and their parents know the perils of letting them go alone. Girls, in a number of families, are allowed to complete their homework only if they have completed all the household chores.

Even today many girls don't get married because their parents cannot arrange hefty dowries. Such a sorry state of affairs. Of course there are women who make boyfriends just to enjoy luxuries or marry richie rich guys just because they don't want to work but want to have all the luxuries in life. But what is the percentage of these women? Compare them with the women who bear all the difficulties, all kinds of hardships to earn their own bread and butter and to have a respectable life?

of course not ... its the way now - demonise men in "women centric" movies, demonise women in "men centric" movies - you will find some audience at least ...

But I am yet to see a hindi film where all male characters have been demonised. This movie and the sequel has all the women demonised for being women... all three girlfriends, their mothers, their female friends, everyone...

it's not even about some women being good and some bad...it's about every person having a good as well as a bad side.
But may be that won't provide scope for comedy...but purely talking about comedy of the movie,am I the only one who thinks it is overrated?even the rant scene?...i am only talking about the first movie of course,haven't seen this one.

Also,coming to some 'feminazi shit' now...if making light of the situations where a wife gets cheated on and generalizing a gender is sooo funny can we also have movies where men are cheated on(and this should be shown in an immature/funny manner) and where men are generalized?Some objectification too please...but whom to objectify?nobody goodlooking enough in bollywood.

I haven't seen either of these films but I have seen the famous 'rant' from the first part. No, all women aren't like that. It's highly stereotypical. But the movies are in a lighter vein so of course the 'nagging' and 'complaining' and 'insatiable' nature associated with womankind is generalised and exaggerated to the maximum. It's purely for entertainment, I don't think one should seriously start a gender debate based on them.

It promotes misogyny...

There are girls like the ones in this film. Every film can't be preachy and moralistic.

Yet to see Jazbaa or cheater. Basically Luv Ranjan's movies and all the misogynist jokes always target wives and girlfriends, never mothers. Indians are hypocrites to the core : mother is always a devi... and wife a churail, but they forget mother too is someone's wife...that's how she became a mother...

I had a roomie who was engaged yet many guys in her class was ready to do her assignment. They were ready to be used despite of knowing she wasn't really available coz she was beautiful n hot. Well and she used them. 😆

Some women are opportunistic. They are beautiful and they know they can make any guy run around them. And guys are chutzpah for going behind them. 😆 😆

So I don't really feel any bad for these guys. If you can't use your sixth sense, or can't keep in seeing hot girl, You ask for it. 😉 😆

The whole concept of PKP is to highlight the "girlfriend behaviour". Everything you see in the movie is true, all these situations actually happen!! There are so many girls out there who are like this, it's horrifying.

Ofcourse not ALL women are like this but a large portion of them are annoying. Even girls themselves admit that. I think such movies will help girls be less annoying lol

I also didnt know that you get a warning from admins for criticisng movies. Wonderful peoople. keep it up.
