I have confusion about Raj's character from DDLJ - Page 2

what? you also haven't found it watch worthy?

Ha ha... no, I like the movie (Raj reminds me a lot of someone in my family ) and I already had watched other SRK-movies before this one... but I know SRK-fans who dislike this movie...and non-SRK-fans may not even watch it at all

Well i felt Raj was a harmless flirt. He just want bring out a girl for a while than dump her. He is not the playboy type who sleeps around with women as he did told Simran that he knows what she thinks abt him 'awara ladka' but he is not what she thinks. He is a flirt who just want to have good time. He did told Simran he had small flings but he did not fall in love with anyone. He genuinely fall in love with Simran throughout the trip

Hey, I like DDLJ. :)

yes you are right he was not playboy in KKHH. just was flirting with college girls before he meets Tina.

But in Zamana Deewana, he wanted to take advantage with Raveena Tondon. I have seen that song. In that song, he realizes that she is a good girl, She was self-defensive against his advances and he accepts it with gracefully. Then he falls in love with her.

I think I'm a naive like Sejal, who doesn't know about anything. Ha Ha

The idea was to show him as the adorable awaara who would go far enough to push the boundaries of desi decency but never too far . The stalking was supposed to be 'cute ' and entertaining and nowhere was it supposed to mean he pestered her for sex. But I mean he wouldn't have droned on about the honour thing if Kajol had offered to sleep with him would he ,though. This movie was one big NRI circle jerk for people who lived in the West, enjoyed all the perks of it and then whined about missing their homeland because India is much much better starting from the smell of soil to the ''purity " between a woman's legs. The Chopras pushing women's honour on the viewers after making Kajol dance in the rain in a white sheer top and zooming in on her thighs and cleavage🙄

"Let every man seek heaven in his own fashion"

well, whatever one thinks, I have to say the casting was perfect. Both of them looked like they were made for each other- a mediocre looking female and a chichora looking eve-teaser. Only BW can put together such a perfect couple.

Raj wasn't a rapist that he would sleep with simran when she was unconscious.

PPL get physical with each other but that doesn't mean they touch each other without consent. So Raj nay be sleeping with his girlfriends with their consent.

Also it wasn't show whether Raj was sleeping around. From movie it looked more like he was doing timepass with flirting n irritating girls.

Sleeping with someone with that intoxicated level amounts to rape. Raj meant the last line that you mentioned in your post. Case closed. Don’t question my Raj. Ever.
