While I appreciate Yash Chopra coming through with the Catholic (or at least Anglo-catholic) rep for his final film, I cannot take this shit seriously. I laughed when SRK got hit by a car the first time. I laughed when SRK got hit by a car the second time. I laughed when the fucking bomb squad let SRK through on the honor system. I laughed when he had telenovela style amnesia. I laughed when his hair was dyed that stupid shade of black. I laughed when he was flirting with a 21 year old. I laughed when said 21 year old’s boss cried at her fuck ass movie trailer. It sucks because Yash Chopra is literally my dad and I want to love and be moved by everything he makes. Especially by the last thing he made! And I don’t think it’s a bad film. I’m just not immersed in it the way I am with Veer-Zaara or Dil To Pagal Hai or Chandni. It demands just a little too much suspension of disbelief, but there are worse crimes.
