I agree with this, and it is crazy how it was romanticized. Lol when I have kids I am not letting them watch some of these movies at all. Even some of the racist comments in bollywood movies makes me cringe now.

Truth be told, I cringed and cringed in secondhand embarrassment and wished I wasn’t watching with my parents. That Suraj Hua madham with his breathing down her neck and her moaning and acting all weird. Cringe promax. 😵‍💫*shudders*

Even in Hollywood films and shows.

Yes Hollywood is the worse at perpetuating racial stereotypes.

Whenever I am visiting home and we happen to be watching a TV show or movie it is a race to the remote to change the uncomfortable scene or sometimes I run out of the room if I cannot find the remote

Rahul fell for Anjali in summer camp after seeing she actually isn’t the stupid Tom boy but a woman who could be a great mommy too. Please don’t tell me he saw her inner beauty because nowhere in the movie they reflect on why he was in love with her and went to stop her wedding which in reality he should have let happen if he actually cared about others except his own self.

Also his kid was as annoying as him, the entire family was annoying and the least annoying one died by giving birth.

Anjali never loved Aman so she should have never got engaged to him and even if she did, she should have come clean to him during summer camp lafda days

Please name one Bollywood where a hero falls for a girl over inner beauty? I don't even remember

Tina says at the train station that she felt that she came in between 2 friends, she always saw they do love each other. When Anjali throughs her dubatta, she is verballing saying you have my blessings. Even when she write letters to her daughter, she says when they were married, she felt your father was missing anjali a lot. The biggest problem in the movie was how Anjali does not tell him right away that she is engaged to aman, her dancing with Rahul indicates she basically cheated on Aman. I am not sure why we all blaming Rahul and no one is picking on Anjali? Yes she realizes all of sudden that she is engaged, but when she runs away from dancing and she think its Rahul who surprises her and says I love you, Aman Say i love you too. I don't think Rahul was ever a bad guy, he never knew that his best friend has feelings for him.

At the Camp, Rahul is very happy to see Anjali at the camp. That was the reason her daughter goes to the camp and the entire family creates the atmosphere where Rahul realizes about his feelings. But no one in the camp knows about Aman I don't think Rahul was in love with her because she now dresses up. She got engaged to Aman only because her mother wanted it, she did mentioned to her mother about how she is only compromising. Because she knows that she will never fall in love with anyone as she did with Rahul.

I believe Salman Khan presence changed the entire vibe of the movie, he was like breeze of fresh air and there is a reason why he won best Actor in supporting role.

Cartoons are fine Emotional or mental or physical cheating is not romantic, so they are not watching anything that romanticizes cheating when they are kids.

Yeah but Rahul didn’t deserve Anjali and nor did Aman deserve to get dumped for Anjali to go back to the man who needed her after she moved on. Anyway Karan agrees that the concept was flawed and I appreciate him for this, otherwise many makers would still keep justifying some shitty characters they write just because of their huge ego.

I just watched KKHH a few days ago and I don't understand how the tom boyish Anjali who refused to be acknowledged/be identified as a girl fell head over heels in love with Rahul. Again, her change of heart and mind wasn't fleshed out well enough. KKHH's writing is it's biggest let down.

Also, Anjali should've told Rahul that she's engaged to Aman. She lead him on.

Kuch Kuch Hota Hai is loved not for its logic, but its emotions and perfect casting.

I think Karan needs to realize this.

What is this need to be woke? It's not a woke movie, we all know that.

Just don't disown your best product.

It was a regressive movie for sure .

Anjali probably realized when Rahul’s center of universe changed from being all the time with her to being all the time with Tina. Again not a very unrealistic situation given she saw the difference in his behavior and understood that he’s drifting away.

About coming clean with Aman, yes her fault obviously, especially when in worst case scenario Aman would actually do nothing but accept her decision. Ideally both leads are shitty while Tina with a bit of intelligence died and Aman was dumped, KJo style
