A challenge! You have to find a Shashi character you are willing to punch! And one that you are willing to sex, but not marry.
I’ll start!
Sex: Satyam Shivam Sundurram Shashi. He’s a little egotistical and way to superficial, but based on Zeenat’s reaction, he is very good at The Sex.

Punch: Ae Gale Lag Jaa Shashi. I don’t think there were Consent issues, but I do think his whole “I am loudly in love with you at first sight!” thing is super irritating in this and he would be a better calmer person if someone had punched him in the face.

Marry: Kabhi Kabhi Shashi OBVIOUSLY!!!!! I’ll fight you all for him and his awesome 70s house!
Sex: Vijay in Kabhi Kabhi. Since you already called dibs on him as a husband, I’ll just borrow him for some superlative sex. We all know how good Vijay is in bed. Rakhee goes from crying over her gloomy first love to grinning in the shower after only a few days into her honeymoon. She legit couldn’t keep her hands off him. Dude must have been doing something right.

Punch: Dilip Rai in Dharmputra. Yes, he is beautiful and also shirtless in some scenes but he’s a religious extremist. He did get better in the end but one good punch would’ve gotten him there sooner.

Marry – Kumar from a little known movie called Bezubaan that I saw only a few days ago. The movie is strictly average 80s fare but his character is like Vijay, only even better, if that’s possible. The movie is about his wife, Reena Roy trying to keep her pre-marital sex and pregnancy a secret from her adoring, beautiful husband. In the end it turns out he knew about all that and has always known and doesn’t care because he loves her.

OOF that first picture! So glad that’s my husband.
Well, now I don’t want to watch Dharmputra! I don’t need a punchable Shashi in my life
But you may have gotten me to watch Bezubaan. If there is a sudden burst of interest in that obscure movie, we will know why.

Bezubaan was great!

Sex–Vijay from Fakira. Awesome 70’s gangster lair and peak mature sexiness.
Marry–Raja from Jab Jab Phool Khile. He’s fit, charming, funny, passionate, and can sing. He has some retro sexist ideas but is open minded enough to grow out of them.
Punch–his character in Shakespeare Wallah. He really is a thoughtless cad.

Wait, THIS is your sex person? It seems a bit too extreme for me.

Haha, it is very 70’s and out there. But the mustache is a clever disguise, i.e. not in the movie much.

Haha yes! The movie is very 70’s and out there. Thankfully the mustache is just a clever disguise–he’s clean shaven for most of the movie.

It was! Although the 70s were pretty explicit in general, more than movies now anyway.

I mean, could you deal with Raja following you around for the rest of your life threatening to divorce you and punching the cashier because you touched his hand?

He just needs the firm hand of an older woman, you can train that out of him.

My theory is that he is open minded and able to learn, or he wouldn’t have liked Nanda (I had to google her name) in the first place. He does like her, not just lust after her. Therefore he could be, as Margaret says, trained up by a (ahem) firm hand. Also, I like his sister!
LikeLike
His sister is great! Yes but this is why he should be with one of us and not her, because giving in to him is the absolute worst idea. Anyway, I’ll shag him and then slap it out of him, then someone else can marry him, how’s that.

There are so many I want to punch. From Aa Gala Lag Jaa, Sharmllee, Satyam, Abhinetri, Heat and Dust, Bombay Talkie. Even Raja from Jab Jab Phool Khile needs a few tight slaps.
Sex, I guess I’d give Raja a go. He wouldn’t do it because of his honor or whatever but he’s too hot not to try. Also, Amaz from A Matter of Innocence, and the cads from Haseena Maan Jayegi and Paap aur Punya.
The rest of them are firmly marriage material.

No wait, he cheats in two of them, but I can’t remember which. Vijeyta aaaaand something else. I will also slap them.

Yes, but he’s so hot in Vijeta. Every time the story focused on Kunal’s character, I’m like – can we go back to your hot dad and Rekha, please? He has this fantastic simmering chemistry with her and that one make out scene is everything. I’m ashamed but I was rooting for them.

He’s always hot though. He does have great chemistry with Rekha.

Honor is easy, just give Raja amnesia, nurse him to life, “marry” him, and then let him go once he regains his memory and remembers his True Love.

Punch: Chor Machaye Shor; Tries to rape Mumtaz. 😦 Not forgivable even by Shashi.
Sex: Mr. Romeo; Shashi playing hard to get in snowbound Kashmir. Sigh.

Marry: Ijaazat – Shashi is the pot of gold that awaits Rekha when she finally leaves her stupid, selfish, jackass of a hubby, Naseeruddin Shah.

Also, if you haven’t yet, be sure to weigh in on the “rank Shashi’s body parts” post. Eyes or smile? Hair or height?
