It was quite a chore. On Disney plus in USA they only had an English version. So except for the songs all of it was dubbed over in English. It was cheesy & something felt off. That school of mutants really didn’t make sense. I didn’t understand why there was a 11 year Asian kid there. SRK in the beginning was funny. That could’ve been the English tho. Don’t know much about mythology but it seems it was just a set of motivational Rocky type dialogues 😂 Only in the end did I realize that was Dimple. I don’t know if I watch a Hindi version will play better but I’m not really interested in finding out.

Agree with everything except that bit about Asian kid.

1.2 billion Indians belong to multiple ethnicities. Many in the north eastern states share features which look east Asian, but they are very much Indian. Kashmiris have white skin while some south Indians may be darker than Africans. A lot of Goans have mixed blood. There are tribals. I could go on.

I watched the first SRK-Mouni fight and the last "Tu bhaag Tenzu" and the darkness-light dialogue between RK-Mouni and the pyaar ki taakat thingy.

I literally could imagine Tenzu in his head going "I can fight, bissh, my ancestors have had this powers, what are you gonna do? Scream Shiva and scare them?"

And after watching Blur, which had a similar dialogue about darkness and light (different context) you realize how much Ayan needs to fire the current writers. 

Also, pyaar ki takat? Seriously! What is this? 2000s? Drona? Same thing with stranger thingsmiley44

And everyone in Junoon's team names with the strength. Inka leader dictionary leke betha tha kya?smiley44

Loved SRK though, bakwaas dialogue ke saath bhi he made me smile (not giggle, itne dialogues mein itna hi koi Banda kar sakta hai)

That kid stood out like a sore thumb when he was onscreen. An he wasn’t fleshed out. None of those mutants were. One guy was Neha Dhupias husband ?

You missed the best dialogue of the film then.... 

"Shiva ko daura aya hai"

I wasn't commenting on quality of film.  Just explaining Indians are of many ethnicities.


Otherwise, I agree it was poorly done movie. The weakest links were the lead hero and heroine. Isha was worse than useless. She didn't belong there.


The concept was enjoyable, though, and people are waiting to see Dev and Amrita.
