Vanga takes an indirect dig at SRK - Page 11

Watched the video, Vanga said what SRK's character does Darr/Baazigar is stalking that's correct, he did stalk women

Haven't seen Kabir Singh so I have no idea

But how is that a dig at SRK?

Success of a film is an objective fact and glorification of a villain is your subjective choice. You can absolutely say SRK’s villainous movies have been successful or his acting has been praised without glorifying his character. There’s a difference.

Also not sure what the last paragraph means (and if it’s referring to SRK film characters) but it’s not that hard to remember character names when he’s played Rahul and Raj interchangeably in almost every second film lmao. Barring the time he played Arjun Sagar (coz hot), Kabir Khan (hot), Aman Mathur (extra hot), Veer Pratab Singh (hot), Vikram Rathore (hot). Most of his character names are in the movie titles itself (Karan Arjun, Raju Ban Gaya Gentlemen, Ramjaane, Devdas, Guddu, Asoka, Jab Harry Met Sejal, Pathaan, Om Shanti Om.

Now if that question was aimed at characters played by Vivek Oberoi or my puttar Abhishek Bachan, then mein tumhaari saath hoon. Who are these people remembering character names for Vivek and Abhishek? Idhar aao, reveal yourselves to me.

Are you forgetting the lovable Adi? Your bahu's ex-boyfriend when he co-starred with your almost bahu, your puttar's ex-girlfriend? The same ex-girlfriend you had spats with on the set of Laaga Chunari Mein Daag?

Fair enough..so same applies to the character in a film literally titled Animal?

Animal is billed on Ranvijay being the Alpha who gets aways with telling women to lick his shows. He pays nothing for his deeds. Baap mar gaya/bimaat pad gaya is not retribution. The women have no PoV or sympathy. That is not the case with Anjaam or Darr. You root for Madhuri and Juhi's chatacters.

Taking the Nazi example further, people know that a genocidal maniac is not an ALphA. We sympathise and root for their victims. Anyone who makes a movie glorifying a minority-hating genocidal bigot, and any audience who cheers for them need to reflect on their humanity.

"People think the character dying is the only consequence" Ergo "I make sure bad guys end up with bad consequences."

I am paraphrasing.

I don't think he was taking a dig at SRK because in the same interview, he said this

My problem is not with the making of Darr or Baazigar. It's about saying that the guy dies in the end so that's ok. So? Shilpa's character was innocent..why did she die?

But ya they r well made films..much better than Animal. Sorry for my rant but

Issue with Animal is not even just its story..it's the execution. What was the need of so much violence, blood, guns, hand to hand combat, breaking of head, hands, legs..or those talks about masculinity, sex and showing off the body..why was Geetanjali needed if it was just about a son protecting his father..if the purpose was to show Ranbir as a father it didn't work.

More than being a father to his kids he was always a kid to his father.

I wonder why Geetanjali's brother didn't think of getting rid of his sister's husband saying he wasn't the right guy for her

but when his own wife leaves him and his kid jumps out of the car to hug him. That was well done. 👍

Again a case of ending justifying the means

I don't know what to say apart from the fact that bad people exist and will be portrayed in art. Anjaam and Darr did not say the actions of the bad person who harms people is aLphA or okay or childhood trauma. They met the consequences of their bad deeds.

Shilpa's character was innocent and Bazigar was fùckall film but it is understood that the guy is an antagonist and obsessed with revenge. All forms of violence and revenge are bad and cause harm to innocent people.

Just St a normal statement.He is a huge srk fan. In the same interview he said he is waiting for a chance to work with SRK .

Should I say "please join the line"? (yes, I think, SRK indeed is someone special for him...no hard feelings from my side for this...but still, I won't watch Animal )
