Someone's uncle working as a background singer (not even actual lead singer) and composing tunes for telefilms and ads is not the "IN" industry guy. It's like saying a spot boy's son is a nepo now. Nepotism thrives because of the social capital that the parents and closer relatives carry and are willing to spend on their offsprings without merit. This is a reach.

But you have already made up your mind to smack down on a newbie actor spinning narratives who has proved his mettle against the nepos. No amount of pulling others down or attributing their success to other factors can prop up Suhana though. Just saying.

Didn’t I already predict this just a couple of pages ago? He dared to get noticed against all the odds. Now wait for him to systematically get dragged down.

Lmaoo true. I was about to tag you but it seems you have turned off tagging.

This is textbook dismantling 101. There must be some guidebook to propping nepos that people seem to feed off of.

I love Shah. He was my introduction to movies. I am sure it is same for many.

But Suhana's performance was bad. She was lazy. That's just a truth.

Both of these opinion can co-exist.

That exactly was the reason I let you know what I already knew about Vedang long before the movie released. I did the same for the other three to know more than only the name. It was out of my respect for those actors of the ensemble cast...it's a personal thing, nothing negative...and certainly not done thinking of nepotism (I didn't even use the word...it's just your interpretation again that insinuate an objectionable motivation from my side).

The constant alluding that my perception depends on my liking for SRK and that I defend Suhana is diametral to my understanding of discussing a movie. I did not praise her in particular naming her the best out of the group. When watching the movie a second time, I focussed on each of the youngsters in the same way (already knowing their artistic background) and on some of the supporting cast. That's simply my way to 'study' a movie I would like to discuss.

I liked the way the ensemble cast gave me a good feeling, that the actors had been in sync with their characters others described from the comics, I wrote about everything I liked and why I did so. I'll stop now as I got repetitive and I don't feel that I've to justify my liking for the movie which seems to get more rejection than acceptation.

I also don't want to lose my cool again because of defending my opinions...it's not okay to get aggressive over a movie, a filmmaker, actors/actresses and members here.

It might just be me, but I am really enjoying the album off late (barring maybe 1 or 2 tracks like Dishoom). It's such a nice breezy album by SEL. Sunoh, In rahon mein and Va va voom are awesome with the rock/rock'n'roll feels
