If Sridevi had said to Rishi “you creeper, please leave me alone”, do we think he would? He’s being soooooooooo creepy, but she’s smiling back and stuff, so I don’t know.

I feel like it is supposed to be similar to Salman and Madhuri in HAHK but for some reason it does not work here.
LikeLike
Rishi is WAY more physical than SAlman was!!!! Salman never did anything like creeping up super close behind her in a crowd.
LikeLike
HA! Yes. And the Salman grabbing Madhuri’s hand and then letting it go was sexy. Rishi grabbing Sridevi was weird. Same with the Sridevi being asked to stay back scene. It is cute in HAHK.
I think in HAHK Salman always bowed down to Madhuri and Madhuri was the one in control, which is why it worked. Here Rishi is the one in control.

Perhaps because his face didn’t really change, when I look at Rishi I see an old man.
LikeLike
He’s one of those men who got a second growth spurt or whatever you call it in his mid 20s and then stayed. Like Frank Sinatra. Rishi before age 25 looks totally different to me, and then after 25, he never really changed.
Boys are weird. Let us know when your 12 year old wakes up one morning and suddenly somehow looks more like a teenager than a little boy. It seems like it happens overnight.

In Rishi’s memoir, he talked about his “jumper” collection and how he was so proud of it and everyone always asked him about it, and then tragically a servant stored them on hangers and they all got ruined. So, like, does he not KNOW they are ugly? Does he think people think he actually wears them for style and not to hide the fat? How much denial was he in?

It’s a good thing Sridevi is Sridevi, because so far her character has been given almost no personality. But I love her anyway. But her dialogue is all “giggle giggle, shy squeak”
