Dont know why there is so much HUE and CRY over karan johar’s latest movie.
may be people expect some typical and ideal kind of families and story to be seen.
or may be they are embarassed because they by mistake , watch it with their family and thinking it may give wrong messages to children’s :-)
Director’s like karan johar and yash chopra make movies to eye overseas market and so its obvious they will try to touch their life more than those living in more ideal places of up, bihar or mp like bareilly and patna.
(not to be taken on regional sentiments plz I too belong from one of these places)
In fact, karan has never made a conventional movie.
1.Was kuch kuch hota hai a conventional story where an 8 yr old daughter wants to reunite her father to his ex girlfriend after her mother’s death. in fact she was motivated by the letters of her mother only !!!!
2. kabhi khusi kabhi gham was somewhat conventional where Hrithik plays bharat and shahrukh plays Ram on Vanbaas in London !!!
3. kal ho na ho was although not directed but only produced by karan but it was unconventional in the sense that a lover teaches another lover of her girl how to Woo her knowing that he wont live for long and unlike typical films he succeeds too..
there is No Men - Husband ego involved and first time he had comicly targetted Grandfathers and Grandmothers involved in Flirting... !!!
which came out Full Fledged in the latest movie.
All though KANK is not up to the expectation, Karan has tried to give a solution for extra martial affairs, especially for those staying outside India.
After all till now our movies just try to justify extra martial affairs as Born out of unwanted circumstances.. and
at last both sides come back to home based on any Divine realization and final fact comes out as--
" U have to live with the one u have married by choice or by mistake unless one of the two dies !!! "
The one fact which made movie down was, there was no strong / well reason for Rani and Shahrukh to come so close and so desperate to have a physical relation
and it all was somewhat forced..
The Message from this movie to is,
Life is not on “The end” once u committed to a marriage,
dont feel life as hell if u r not happy with ur marriage, there is always a way of solution, a door to step new life, a hope of happiness and lots...
Amitabh was a big relief although showing him in half cloths was not dignified to his persona but
HE DID JUSTICE to his role or whatever director wanted him to do.
His on screen chemistry with His son Abhishek was just fabulous but he seemed little shy in acting with babes..!!!
One note, In Movie there was a mixture of funny as well as serious moments without giving a hint or pause, that was a new idea and more realistic when seen closly with life.
Although, Being an Indian,
its hard to Accept this movie because we belive in our values and we do respect Marriage but in reality for problems in early marriage (like if we are totaly disappointed with our marriage), Kabi Alvida Na Kehena gives some hope, makes strong statement to choose other options, feel no sin in case of extra martial affairs.
In last, As per my understanding " Its Better to Prevent Than To Cure,
but its better to Cure than Compromise beyond limits ".
and late people in "abnormal relations" live normally. dont make it an issue.
there are many issues other than this.
