Is Romance and Marriage Outdated concept in younger Bollywood?

I just noticed that while movies with older stars veered towards romance and marriage, movies with younger generation had different outlook. Is Bollywood showcasing changing face of love? Does concept of romance and marriage exist in younger generation any more?

Case in point-
Raees- Romance followed by marriage
Kaabil - Romance followed by marriage
Jolly LLB2 - Romance in marriage

Contrast this to -
Ok Jaanu- Stay together with no thoughts on love or marriage
BKD- Bride has cold feet and becomes runaway bride
Phillauri- Bridegroom in new age couple has cold feet

Unfortunately, people have started viewing marriage as an outdated concept overall.. Now I don't to invite the wrath of the progressive people with their #Mychoice mojo, but this is just another example of aping the west

Let us look at old BW, in many regressive movies you will see the sacrificing first wife conducting the marriage of the husband with the second wife. The mangalsutra and maang mein sindoor were all important and bigamy or the rule of law did not matter. You could see RL examples in BW of Hema Malini and Jaya Prada who lived that lifestyle. Who knows how many women lived that kind of life in the 80s and 90s. Divorce was almost unheard of.

I think many do not believe in marriage now...live in is more of a trend now
In BKD Vaidehi ran away to get an independent life...she liked Badri all along...and they married at last too

even in west live in get them selves married 😆 😆

Wese, eventually the leads did get married in BKD and Phillauri

I don't view marriage as a concept any good. What's the fun of choosing one person and living with him till the end of his life. I have seen enough failed marriage and relationship to iunderstand that love is not all that it is made out to be. IMO marriage and having kid are responsibility, people should take when they are sure they can deal with it. This cannot be the only MOJO for living.

I have seen enough failed marriages around me, but I still believe that marrying the right person can really bring stability, peace and fulfillment in one's life. But yes, a person has to think carefully before marriage.

Bhashkor from Piku said some wise words about marriage "Shaadi without purpose is low IQ"

I don't think it's outdated as there are many that still think it's the right way to go if you are going to be with someone you should marry them. Live-in relationships still get looked frowned upon. Which doesn't make sense to me as if marrying someone will make the relationship actually work.

How many times no matter what century, decade, year, whatever have there been marriages of a spouse dishonoring their marriage vows? Then to some extent there are women who still put up with their husbands bullcrap for the sake of their kids or money or because it would be looked down upon if they got a divorce?

I think marriage can be beautiful and, if you truly feel it is right for you and can make things work and talk with your partner-make sure you know the ins and out of what you want from the marriage, then go right ahead!

^^Totally agree with you! Conservatives will say these are new fangled ideas & the progressives are all crazy while they alone know how to uphold the institution of marriage bla bla.. LMAO.. But I do agree that marriage as an institute has to be entrrrd into with a great amount of thought & commitment & patience. Which most people lack today. Hence so many marriages fail!! People enter into them because they "have to" as that what is so many people usually really conservative, have taught them & it's been a practice since time immemorial.. But then we also have people who cheat rampantly so what's the point of marriage or anything.
