Were the early 2000s a confusing time?

So i was watching many films that released in the early q2000s. And these are the things I noticed

1. Filmmakers weren't really sure what they were doing...they were leaving behind the 90s and so there was this weird thing going on where the actresses were wearing sports bras or crop tops for no reason

2. It looked like they were trying so hard to change the fashion quotient.

3. They were confused while making films ki sanskaari banaye ya so called modern progressive. For example: Mujhse Dosti Karogi had that family angle and Rani was the simple girl while Kareena was the "progressive" one ans ofc the hero falls for the sanskaari mahila...but then Kareena's opening shot is only in sports bra and track pants for no reason...and that time no one would wear such stuff also! xD

4. On the other hand, veterans from the 90s ka formula was failing...like David Dhawan with Chal Mere Bhai (tho i love the soundtrack)

5. It seemed like there was two camps: one was yrf and dharma making family films with some sort of forced modern shit and then the other film.makers whose old formulas were failing

6 The veteran composers of the 90s made way for young blood...but even the soundtracks then were confusing- some sounded too 90s that didnt go with the film's modernity

7. Unnecessary kissing and sex scenes added, as if to show progressiveness

Its like things changed around 2007 when the filmmakers and music department kind of figured out what they wanted.

Did anyone else also notice these?

Aamir was not doing films, Hrithik although had a big debut faltered shortly after and was sliding downwards before 2003, and Salman was arrested every other day. It was a great time for SRK 🤣🤣

Srk had some great films fosho 😂😂 But when I watch them now its like 90s ka cheesyness and unnecessary forced progressiveness ke liye ya toh heroine ko chote kapde pehenao ya toh abroad shooting hogi 😂😂😂

It happens at the beginning of every new decade. People want to bring in change but are confused at the same time too. Similar thing happened when this decade began.

Honestly i love the 200s films.. as they're my childhood nostalgia. 😆

I didn't live the 90s, as i was born at the end of 90s.. so 200s era was my era... love those movies & style you mentioned esp. the ones post 2003 & onwards. 😆
