Okay and whats wrong with that? This is a business and maybe he needed to be convinced that they are worth investing in? 😆 Uski marzi...maybe you should contact Ranbir, Ranveer and Anu and tell them not to work with KJO? Truth is they jump on the opportunity like hot cakes 😆

If you consider the message of the story and the subsequent reception, the worst dharma movie is KKHH by miles, KANK was a controversial topic but it still was more real unlike KKHH ..

KKHH was the worst way KJO has insulted LOVE, someone who mocks you for being a tom boy, goes and marries another hott woman, comes back and tells you that he loves you after 10 years when you were getting married to a gem of a person who actually loves you for what you are, and what do you do in return ? You choose to leave the gem of a guy and marry the cocky and selfish moron 🥱

In KANK, at least we could see that Dev and Maya feeling guilty and trying to move out and let their spouses move on. Also Rhea was successful and eventually finds happiness and Abhi also finds someone for himself and forgives maya, in KKHH Rahul did not even let Anjali marry Aman and had to burge in and say nonsense, he needed her, his daughter needed her, so he went and begged for her love, how great of a lou story ..

Couldn't care less about the message. KKHH is one of the most entertaning love stories of all-time. I will never get bored watching that movie.

Also, shahrukh's character wasn't attracted to Kajol's character in the movie. Why would he marry someone he is not attracted to? He did respect her as a friend a lot tho.

Do people even know what love is? It doesn't matter how kind and good a person is if you don't feel anything for them. Kajol's character always loved SRK's so it didn't matter if the other guy was a saint. She would have never been happy with him and even he wouldn't have been happy because her heart would have always been somewhere else.

That's the point i guess that he was not attracted to her because she was a tom boy whereas Tina was sexy and he fell for her. If he was not attracted to her then he should not have gone back to anjali on her wedding day either, no point of ruining another man's happiness for your own. Anjali would eventually be happy as Aman had loved her for what she was.

You found it entertaining and good enough, i respect your opinion, I have said what i feel about the movie.

Dharma productions is same as Yash Raj where I see them producing movies based on similar concepts while Dharma takes mostly insiders while Yash Raj has taken outsiders too. Yash Raj has some realistic love stories while Dharma is OTT like SOTY was some vague story where the female lead loved both the heroes and KKHH was another one where the male lead loved both the heroines. 😆

ADHM beat all others where every lead went through one-sided love and now when every picture has back-to-back repeated male/female leads, it just leads to watching the same kinda acting over and over again. Agneepath, Raazi, were some exceptions and K&S, My Name Is Khan were too some good movies unlike others.

It mainly now depends on the director of the movie to make the movie look logical or unrealistic. The movies are entertaining though but some movies have been horrible too like Brothers, Kaal, Shandaar, Ungli and a long list of disasters.

I think KKHH worked despite KJo's half baked ideas on love because of SRK-Kajol chemistry which was at it's height then and writing that tugs your heart like the gazebo scene. It certainly tugs at mine.

KJO was able to write a scene which was so pure with no dialog just the two of them interacting, still one of my most favorite scenes in movies in any language. Not to be cliched, but it had a purity about it, an innocence and a conviction that still tugs my heart years later even if I roll my eyes at the movie now. Again not to be cliched, but it showed an unjaded KJO who had so much heart. He just about laid it bare on the screen there. That is why that scene still works for me. It's whimsy at its best, not cheesy or gimmicky. So it works for me.

People don't hate Dharma; if they did, most of Dharma's would be absolute flops. In reality, the opposite is true. Most fans would like their favorites to work with Dharma/YRF because of their reputation and prestige. It's a sign that they've made it.

Everyone knows exactly what they're getting when watching a Dharma film and I have never really seen Dharma pretend otherwise, especially for movie they develop in house. They're famous for gloss, pretty, and endearing fun. Their movies are superficial but most have heart/some level of sincerity in them. If you're looking for reality, then you're clearly watching the wrong PH's films. It's like going to an Italian restaurant and being upset that they don't have Indian food. 🤪

Not everyone wants to come home after real life and watch entertainment about harsh realities of real life. Many people just want to relax and be able to forget their problems for the next 2-3 hours and Dharma manages to provide that. I don't think there's anything wrong with that, nor is there anything wrong with wanting to watch gritty films.

I think people have a problem with KJo as a person. A lot of things he does are very questionable, not to mention that he is severely overexposed. He is superficial and his brand of nepotism is actually, IMHO, harmful to the industry on the whole when it comes to progress. Nobody says he is obligated to launch outsiders. but when you lobby to the extent that you're interfering in the director's vision or coercing your favorites into the film by dangling your powerful, reputed PH and all the money with it in front of directors to get his way... that I have a problem with. When you try repeatedly to convince others in the industry to not work with certain people because of how they look - you limit the talent pool. Just like a company cannot progress without outside talent, neither can BW. I think Kjo is simply excessive.

That being said, KJo is a decent director and very good businessman. He has turned Dharma around in 20 years. He has an equal share of lovers and haters but there's no denying that everyone at some point adored at least parts of KKHH & K3G which are some of the landmark films of the last 20 years years. Give credit where due, KJo made them. Yeah SOTY was totally pointless and ADHM was forgettable, but KJo is capable of creating moments and he contributed majorly to BW as we know it over the last 20 years.

I've said this before and I'll say it again..the criticism for KKHH is unfair.

Did Rahul really fall in love with Anjali when he saw her in a saree? No, he was physically attracted to her. He was obviously already in love with her long before or if you don't believe it, he cared very deeply for Anjali. There is a massive difference between the two. If he didn't care, he wouldn't have been so upset and angry when she was leaving him in college.

Also, Rahul met Anjali again after 8-10 years. He was a widower and a single father and had been for 8 years by the time he met her again. People change and mature as circumstances in their life force them to. It's not like he fell for Tina and 2 days later Anjali wore a saree and he dumped Tina for Anjali. It was practically a decade later. Are y'all the same person you were in college as a 20 year old?

Even Anjali was a different person when he met her. She was more mature..more skeptical, more accepting of life's truths, more real. Not as much the fun loving girl she was in college.

Rahul was a superficial brat when he was a college going guy. He was a player who had a new girl every week. Anjali was his best friend. I don't think he saw her as anything other than one of the guys. He simply wasn't physically attracted to her. It's not a crime. But he obviously gave her a position in his life he didn't give anyone else and he never forgot her. Unlike YJHD, when Bunny randomly decides he loves Naina, I think Rahul's was much more gradual and the seeds were always there.

Who's to say Aman would have been as in love with the tomboy Anjali as he was in the saree clad Anjali? He never met her or knew her then. Anjali never loved Aman. She was compromising as she said and she would have never been truly happy. Rahul didn't force her into anything.
