For those who have seen the movie know this for sure

her role was an embarrassment

2 songs and 2 scenes before that to facilitate her songs and then disappear

many A list actresses have played flowerpot roles but no one has ever played a role as inconsequential as this one

it is literally like they have taken you to objectify and that is it

PC in krish series..kareena in Bajrangi..at least had a role..had something to do..some screen time

this baffles me..it is not that she is out of work..why would she being an A list actress since 15 plus years agree to this?

now i know..many would wonder that even kat is not that bothered about her career..why are we? but then even kareena..deepika..anushka may not be that bothered about their careers as much as we are..that is what we do here

also some may say..i bash the actors after their movie flops..please see review thread page 69 for TOH..before you accuse me of that

i am just asking a very basic Q

this is not bipasha basu doing this role..who one can understand is out of work and may agree..this is the top 3 female A list actress of the nation and i bet none of her contemporaries be it Deepika..Priyanka..anushka would have ever agreed for it

When she signed this film she wasn't doing well. Signing an Aamir Khan film creates buzz and using that she can strike back and sign more films, just like she signed that Varun film and a couple of others.

People viewing it as a failure and embarrassment, it may not be. This may just be a part of her strategy. We may just not get it.

You're talking like she has a choice or something when it comes to roles lol. She takes whatever she gets cause if she didn't she wouldnt have any work in the first place.

It's just a matter of chance this movie flopped. If it was a super hit she would have gotten the credit for bringing in the audience with her songs. She is at the make it and break it point of her career. She needed this movie .

There is hardly any work for heroines today.

Kjo curates Aloo's films..yet at this stage in her career,she is doing Gully BOY,Kalank and Takht🤔.How many of Alia's contemporaries are crying their hearts out for those roles??

I don't see any DP,Anushka,PC,Sonam fan wondering if their favorites should have waited to get married ,for career's sake.

There is nothing to wait for.

I bet Katrina demanded good money for TOH & Bharat.These films demanded a top heroine-to make them look like an event film.

Who is the choreographer of TOH??

That murgi dance in suraiyya had me in splits🤣

To make Katrina Kaif look clownish that too in an item song is indeed a talent. Props to the choreographer and to the director

My one big question is, why did Aamir give this film such a leeway. He usually interferes in and control all aspects of his films, doesnt he??

And if he did just that, iceflames, "interfere"?

Yes, Katrina was asked to take a 'prominent role' in TOH...she made the contract. Then she came to know that her role would not be that 'prominent' and she got angry. Yet she was under contract. Then, she got even more angry when she saw what all had been chopped off of her role after the cutting.

It's the second time that her role got reduced drastically (by Aamir???) after having been told that she would have a leading role - Dhoom 3 and TOH.

Ive not seen Thugs yet..but i believe even Fatima does not have much lines..just the action. That Katrina could have also done..she trains so hard..could have carried the action well and looked good too.

But yeah..its very sad that Katrina's songs were not choreographed well. Her look was also disappointing. She's so lovely and a fab dancer..they did not do justice to her.
