Problematic Scenes And Dialogues in DDLJ

He lies to her and tells her they had sex, somehow thinking that telling a girl he had sex with her while she was in no position to consent, would make him look good. Later, when Simran starts to cry, he then sl#t-shames non-Indian women by telling her she is a Hindustani girl with Hindustani values; it doesn’t take a genius to figure out what he’s implying here.

The movie tries to present Raj as some sort of ideal, a man every woman wants, but what exactly is that man?

Raj keeps calling Simran dramatic when he is the one who chooses not to rebel and stages an entire drama to ‘win’ her. Irony!

Simran’s life was controlled by these men. We see her having no opinion of her own and she hardly exerts the ones she has. She is submissive throughout the movie.

Where is Simran’s choice? She literally goes from her father controlling her to him letting her go, only to send her to Raj, another man who shall now control her future. Women are the ones who put DDLJ on a pedestal, and women are the ones who must recognise that it indeed does not deserve it.

You know what else is wrong? Taking each and every work of past and ruin it by judging it from today’s moral compass. This movie was made 25 YEARS AGO! Definitely things were not as sensitive as today. In future, some of today’s movies will be judge too. There is no perfect movie.

All the women look so gorgeous in this movie.. I mean Farida Jalal is so cute.. and Kajol and chutki..

Not the men were far behind.. Yash Chopra surely knew how to bring the beauty out😆

I wish I go to Switzerland one day😆

It is a poor movie even if you ignore these things. Anyway you can’t knock sense in nostalgic fan girls.

Might as well wait till Kabir Singh becomes iconic and see everyone lose their shit.
