If you were that confident that she’s “the one’’, why not communicate to her so that she can prepare too. He leaves everything to fly back, have a masculine hunting competition with Simran’s fiance (because that’s how men view women’s worth) and then convince her that he loves her. No, thank you.Ĭredit: Giphy/ByPriyaShah c) Uncommunicated sachcha pyaarsĬonsidering neither of them checked whether the other one was actually single or not, it was mighty high of Raj to assume that Simran would be waiting for him back in India. All of this under the garb of playful banter. He jokes about them having had sex when they are in the shed, flirts with other women and even manhandles her when she gets drunk.
DILWALE DULHANIA LE JAYENGE MOVIE CLIPS SERIAL
Back the eff up bro.Ĭredit: Giphy/ByPriyaShah b) Too much entitlementĮven after they are stuck together, which under no circumstances is the premise to fall in love considering this person could be a potential serial killer, rapist, murderer, anything, he continues to be a sexist asshole the whole time. If these things were done to you and then laughed off as a joke, we might’ve already been in jail on assault charges. He even manages to stick her bra in her face. From the first moment Simran and Raj are stuck in the train compartment, he keeps poking and pestering the poor girl. Imagine dealing with a partner who does not know the importance of space. if Simran was a woke feminist )Ĭredit: Giphy/ Tumblr a) No concept of space So we made a list why he would, in most likelihood, not get Simran in 2020. Take stalking, casual objectification-how many times have we cringed at the dumb joke made at the expense of a girl in a movie, or been irritated with our personal space invaded? Raj was all of that and more. Since we were watching old classics, we couldn’t help but realize there are some glaring flaws in his personality which have been portrayed as cute because Bollywood spins everything like that. Sexism, crossing the line on several occasions, toxic masculinity-they could all be used to describe Shah Rukh Khan’s character and TBH, not many of us would enjoy Raj’s annoying presence. But if we were to analyze the male protagonist Raj in 2020, we might not be on the same page as those who adore the film. Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge is running in Maratha Mandir till now as one of the most epic love stories told by Bollywood.
