This scene in Sholay.

As DDLJ is getting a lot of undeserved attention on this forum, I want people to give some attention to this movie as well to balance things in the universe.

Sholay, a movie which is considered the biggest classic of all time in Bollywood had this scene :

Should we stop considering this movie a classic as well, because of this scene where Dharmendra is sexually harassing Hema Malini?

The collective “we” is the issue

100 different persons can have 100 different opinions. For some it’s legend and for some it’s thrash 😆

This is a democratic country so we will go with the opinion of majority. And by majority I mean majority of members on India Forums.

it's a movie, it's not preaching/teaching anything

sholay is far from reality, with gabbar, sambha, basanti etc

even so many literary classics will have a jerk as a hero

they're fiction not some code of conduct

if we start policing everything we will become some weird cultish Orwellian society

I would never understand how Sholay is considered iconic 😆

And about this scene ... the way Eve teasing and molestation was and is still glorified in Bollywood baffles me .. like that’s not romance , that’s not comedy ...

This video has some of such disturbing scenes that Bollywood movies brushes off as comic relief or romance

Dig a little deeper....u will find lots of movies of Dilip Kumar, Sunil Dutt, Devanand etc etc behaving like perverts and molesters(ur words not mine)
