All this el stupido needed to do was to let MD dance throughout the song (Aloo's character was supposed to be a student of singing, anyway, but who cares about logic in Dharma LMAO) and who knows, maybe people wouldn't have been so negative right from the start.
He and Alia wanted to prove that Alia is an all-rounder. Also to get SLB to notice her. But Aloo baby cannot do period films, she lacks the grace and aura and the extreme weight loss makes her look more child like. Even Sonakshi looked btr than Alia in Kalank.
Everyone was trolling the movie, mostly because of KJo. The audience isnt as dumb and simple as they used to be till the 90s. I had a strong gut feeling even when the movie was announced that its gonna flop...even tho it had some great actors like Madhuri, Sanjay, ARK...not a huge fan of Sona but I knew she would look great because she rocks that vintage Indian wear.
Can you imagine they went to the extent to screw up Madhuri's outfits and makeup to make her look older, she was giving subtle to no expressions throughout the film JUST to highlight Alia. People thought she doesnt have it any more but DUHH she proves you wrong with this performance.
If KJo was smart and not let his stupidass ego come in the way, Kalank would've been a much better movie. Alia was a huge disappointment since the time the cast was announced, but even a bigger disappointment when she was given the better songs while Madhuri was made to stand in the corner.
Alia, stop trying to be Deepika. Deepika became number 1 because of her film choices. She never tried to become Katrina, her predecessor. She made her own unique identity. The fact that actors like Alia and now Ananya get trolled all the time because they are wannabes, imitators and are relying on a producer, chosing the easy way.
And learn KJo learn. The audience isnt stupid anymore. They care for content and not actors. Voh stars wala zamaana gaya, even the Khans need a good script to draw the audience. Give talent a chance instead of nepotism.
