When I first watched K3G, it was fun. It was a mediocre film but the songs and scenes like "ghamla nahin vase" stood out as entertaining. Now that I look back it's absolute trash. The story had a lot more potential. If it wanted it could have tackled the patriarchy and superiority complex of India's wealthy elite. But instead, it sweeps it under the rug and pretends it's all hunky-dory in the end because - you know family. Yashvwardhan Raichand gets away without any real apology or meaningful change.

One of the reasons, it was a hit is because NRIs lapped it up and still do. I was a very recent immigrant when it came out. And part of what drew me to it was the Indianness of it all. When you're away from home even trash from home seems beautiful. Also for a lot of smug wealthy NRIs it was reassurance that their superiority complex is not really problematic as long as you know family.

But man, you gotta admit K3G was ahead of its times. The whole royal drama with Harry and Megan is K3G with a twist.

Now that u look back every movie is thrash- its part of growing up. I cant fathom the fact that I liked Andaz apna apna its so lame now that i watch it

K3G was Bajrangi Bhaijaan of it's decade. Bollywood's biggest Superstar/s get one good movie and it gets hyped as a classic by his/their fans.

The ensemble cast- Amitabh Bachchan-Jaya, SRK- Kajol and Hrithik-Kareena. The scenic locations, palatial houses and designer clothes. All this with blockbuster songs, emotional drama and catchy dialogues.

It's got to touch and affect people.
