I am so SHOCKED after watching my first Indian movie in a year! All I can say is the censorboard fell asleep during "Ashiq Banaya Aapne" and still approved it!!
It used to be you could watch indian movies with your whole family. Movies like "Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge", "Hum Aapke Hain Kaun", "Kuch Kuch Hota Hai", "Hum Saath Saath Hain". It used to be kissing scenes were "fake" and complete camera tricks (shadows coming close to together and making it look like they were kissing) but this movie had ME closing MY eyes through some scenes (one lip lock session in particular).
There's just something about an indian kiss that I find absolutely disgusting. I have heard this from almost all desi people, yet, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt kissing can be stomached by all, most all.
I think its because we as a desi society/culture still have not accepted certain acts to be...halal.
Cable Television has had a huge impact and this, to me, is a sign of the beginning of the end of a cultural era. More and more producers/writers/directors/choreographers are becoming more brazen in their work. The topics of movies are even getting more off the wall. I would not be surprised if they did not attempt to make a "Brokeback Mountain" remake.

thanks for commenting.
FYI: Im not a Dr. yet. =D
look what you got me doing now, get hooked up to your blog.
but your right, not a lot of ppl have heard about the movie, Only the folks i have recommended too.
It's got some new actors, released in 2005, very non-typical Indian movie, it's a slow paced movie, so you really should not forward any bit of it, cuz you'll regret it later.
enjoy!
