On Netflix and everywhere else in the world! Starting at 7:30am Chicago time. I will put up an “and PLAY” comment and then we will comment along from there!
Bask in our Amitabh-hate, Shahrukh-love, and Hrithik amused tolerance!

I love how SRK is so annoyed in this scene and everyone just ignores him. Such a great contrast to Amitabh’s house.
LikeLike
Everyone ignores him, but also he does have ultimate power of yes or no. You can have respect without fear!

But the thing is, he would never actually say no to them. He is always going to do what they want. Because they allow him to have the final say.

YES!!!! And the only times he goes against what they want, he explains it to them (refusing Kajol’s request to go back to India and visit his parents later on).

Hrithik doesn’t tell Shahrukh because he is secretly afraid of rejection, right? I used to try to come up with some logical “I will sneak into the house and secretly soften him” plot, but ultimately I think the performances say he is just afraid.

This is the kind of insane dancing I don’t think Hrithik can do any more. But on the other hand, all that jumping and flapping is I think hiding slightly less good sense of melody and stuff than he has in Jai Jai Shiv Shankar. Or else I am over thinking this.

Suggestion! What if we think of this whole movie as a diatribe against parents who throw out their LGBTQ+ children? You think “look, they survived, they thrived, they are adults, it doesn’t hurt any more”, but it does still hurt them and it continues to hurt the parents too.
