Looking at the reaction to the Labon ka karobaar song 😕 A song which celebrates kisses is apparently so gross? Gosh. We are in 2016 people.

OMG, I was just about to make a topic on this. You read my mind. 😆

I was wondering if people do not like watching individuals kissing on screen.

IMO, it's an expression of affection and I don't think it should be so taboo. We should just treat it just like a hug or a handshake and move on.

No kissing is not a taboo in indian films anymore..

But most BW filmmakers put unnecessary kissing scenes in movie trailers/songs just for publicity...

its not about kissing being a taboo...its about too much of it...it looks good if they show it occasionally in a movie...but to go on and on and on...even little kids are kissing...it was kind of gross and became to repetitive after 30 secs..

THANK YOU! I wanted to say this.

The video though very in your face is actually very sweet and nicely done. The best thing about it is how progressive it is, pleasantly surprised to see it featuring same gender couples too. Big thumbs up!

I do think kissing is more taboo in our culture than others. As bluenosed said, it was done in a sweet way and wasn't vulgar.

I mean, was just a kiss, wasn't it?
