Both of the characters were unlikable as people (IMO) but that's why they worked. I wouldn't want them spoiling someone else's life. 😆

So you mean she decided he is the one and decided to save herself for him? 😆 See that's the problem I see in there that she had a change of heart but not him. I don't see a problem of them getting back together once they wiped their slate clean but the director here made sure to only turn Dharm as a Casanova while she changed over night.

For some it is a way of enjoying sex without commitment , while for others it's simply fun and for some it's a way to deal with their loneliness

With her character , she had grown out of that phase , while Ranveer's character didn't

I know and I completely agree but still feel that the director could not digest the fact that the heroine could sleep around so instead our stud was given free reign to go and figure out his life and then come back to her when he's done whole she is still waiting him and staying pure. I mean if you really out to make a movie called Befikre then accept that it shouldn't just be limited only to the hero.

That could be one reason or my theory is the the director couldn't have the actress cheating on the hero which I find a bit ridiculous because it follows the stereotype that only men do these things or can get away scot free but if the lead actress was doing it then would somehow tarnish their happy ending. This is the gist of my entire post.

As long as it will exist in real life, which it does 95% time, movies will reflect these sexist stereotypes

Thank you for understanding what I was trying to say. I don't have a problem what they were doing in fact I wanted her to be herself till the climax but the director decided no it would be blasphemous for the heroine to sleep around or have a rebound with some other dude. The yacht scene is so typical of this.

What I mean is that initially she was this careless no f**ks give type of girl who didn't wanted to be in typical relationship although I wouldn't call it strings around but she didn't had the same typical saving yourself for Bollywood hero notions. She was a wild girl who enjoyed her life and until she broke up with Dharm she was still the very same person. But around later half into the movie she almost pulls a Cocktail movie and she felt like she owed something to Dharma and just couldn't mingle with any other guys while on the contrary he was hardly affected and khulle aam had bunch of flings. That's why her character took a tumble and I found it hard to understand how she suddenly turned into sanskaari. 😆

EXACTLY! They couldn't show Shyra get intimate with another man, even with her damn fiance while Dharam remained unchanged having multiple flings. It's like all the "hey I'm free-spirited, I don't wanna be tied down" talk from Shyra was just a facade, in reality she needed to met her true love to ~straighten her out. That's what I felt like the movie was telling. It's not Shyra really, but these scriptwriters who are pseudo-liberals, first write women as fiesty and open then after they fall in love with their guy, suddenly ~sudhar jaana. Of course, dude is waisa ka waisa, with no judgements passed on him, because hey, promiscuity is never a character flaw for men.

I think this is basic difference between men and women is that when women fall in love, they want to be dedicated to the only one whereas men can separate love with sex.
So Shayra was in love and she gave up casual ONS and Dharam used it to forget and move on.

She was a modern woman
If she did not want to be physical with any one else after Dharam
It was completely her choice
Nothing pseudo liberal about it

I'm going totally off topic here but I had this question since the time I had watched the film online..

There was a scene of Ranveer holding a pillow covering his lower body n then when he turned around he was ..ermm naked. Was it for real or it's my eyes watching things😳

OT- Things changes when you starts to see or feel about it differently.. so yeah,nothing pseudo or liberal about it..
