It’s sexy Saturday! The funnest day of the week! Where I put in the random thoughts I have left over from Valentine’s Sex Fest. Today, Sex and Songs!
The primary tool in the toolcase of Hindi films “I’m not saying they had sex, but I’m also not NOT saying they had sex” is the fantasy song. The couple is alone, they are in love, they look deeply into each other’s eyes, they reach for each other and…..SONG! While we are stuck watching the song that is happening in their head, who knows what they are doing off in reality.
There is a common one-liner joke about flowers kissing as a visual substitute for people kissing. That did actually happen in some songs back in the 60s and 70s, but really it is just the tip of the visual metaphor ice berg.
Would you like to see Bhagyashree’s apples falling, falling all over her body? Watch the last bit of this song!
Or, check out Aamir slamming his axe into Rani-wood, so hard, in the rare fantasy-in-a-fantasy moment.
Aamir again, looking at Sonali sets off his powerfull waterfall
Or of course the classic, Large Pointy Objects! You are young, you are in love, you look into each others eyes and….Pyramids!
Or…mountains!
There’s also just the regular rain song, they are both all wet and they don’t care.
And finally, two amazing songs (both with Rishi for some reason) that give you a whole run down of visual metaphors!
Why do you take off your skirt when approached by a tiger?
Ha! Rishi’s sword is so tiny in the end!
Okay, what are your favorite visual metaphor songs?

More seriously:
Although I’m also fond of that one with Vinod Khanna with the lewd ice cream eating, but you think that one’s scary.

NO I CHANGE MY ANSWER because my actual favourite is Prithviraj’s petrol pumping in Aiyya.
Yours all made me laugh so hard btw. There are a lot of Govinda waterfall examples, but those don’t reach the wtf level of apples and hockey.

You can’t post it anyway because it’s in the er, uncut version of the song.

Listen, how else is he going to go down if he doesn’t lean? You want him to bend backwards? Kneel?
That bit is admittedly kind of bad but the euphemistic horse riding is great.

She’s um, offering herself to the tiger? Goodness, *not* filming sex is a lot of work. What do you think is harder (har!), filming a regular sex scene, or filming a scene where you’re submerged in a river, or half dressed on a mountain top, or drowning in apples?
I’ve always wondered, for these many scenes where the leads start out dry and then get drenched by rain or rivers or whatever, what do they do when they have to do multiple takes? Lots of hair drying? Multiples of the same costume?
