With 'Befikre', Aditya Chopra is the new Yash Chopra and Ranveer the new SRK!

First things first, Befikre is the best movie out of the current genre of films that have tried to redefine love with the 'premarital sex has nothing to do with love' message.

While all the other films actually remained a film story and didn't focus on the message, in true YRF tradition, Befikre focuses and passes on the message. Subtly and classily. The typical male attitude of slut shaming is apologetically accepted by Ranveer 'as his lack of experience' that made him say that. And the opening credits have all kinds of couples in lip locks in all kinds of position with the song, 'Ishq labon ka karobar'. Almost as if the intention was to jolt Indians out of their irrational traditional mentality specially in these times of excessive moral policing sweeping across the nation. If Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi was Aditya Chopra's answer to the world as to why a modern woman can fall in love with a good and simple guy (in case people wondered how Rani Mukherjee fell in love with him), this film is his answer to all those who question a woman's character based on the number of men she has had physical relationships with, before meeting the one she wants to stay married with.

Challenging culture codes with great humor and lovely music, YRF lives on with Befikre!

With this film, Aditya Chopra actually inherits the mantle of greatness from his father in true sense. If Waqt was a genre defining cult film that signaled the arrival of Yash Chopra, DDLJ did that for Aditya Chopra. And if Dil Toh Pagal Hai showed the ability of Yash Chopra to change with times and understand the current generation, Aditya Chopra shows the same trait -hallmark of his father- with Befikre, two decades after DDLJ and it's moral code of virginity, babuji and not getting married without the blessings of the elders.

And if Yash Chopra showed his ability to shift from Amitabh Bachchan to Anil Kapoor to SRK emotionlessly dropping one for the other to keep up with times, Aditya does the same by shifting from SRK to Ranveer.

And announces the arrival of Ranveer Singh as his choice to replace SRK. Ranveer who in personal life is absolutely witty, intelligent and sharp reminding one of SRK in person; shows as he has in past, that on screen also his unchained , original and free style makes him a great replacement for SRK, by delivering a kick ass (literally ass revealing) performance.

Of course let's not forget Vani who is as refreshing a YRF gift to the industry as Anushka has been. She delivers a superb performance as the backbone of the film, in true Yash Chopra tradition of extremely strong and key roles for women.

Two thumbs up for Befikre. Go and book your tickets for the next show itself!

  86% Indians fear losing their jobs due to the Pandemic as per a recent online survey. The fear has completely stopped economic activities and spending. We must remove the fear and start the economy. For that we need to guarantee everyone that jobs or no job, they will be economically secure through a minimum unemployment allowance (double of which should be the minimum wages). It requires a simple four step process: 1. Create an online database of job seekers based on their Adhaar Card number. 2. Make it totally illegal to employ anyone for any kind of job without registering his/her Aadhaar Card number. 3. The moment Adhaar Card number is fed in the list of employed, it gets automatically removed from the job seekers register and they stop getting unemployment allowance. 4. Everyone getting unemployment allowance will have to necessarily do 4 hours of social and community service as directed by the registry. Employers will also know who is seeking jobs where and their qualificat...

D ear Arvind Kejriwal, As my relatives, acquaintances and students die avoidable deaths; I am completely mad on the current regime at the centre. But for every death - in reality a MURDER - in Delhi, you have equal blood on your hands. You were sitting and spending 150cr advertising yourself just between Jan to March this year while the cases increased. You did nothing for the last one year when Delhi needed at least 20,000 extra ICU beds if not more. And each bed obviously means extra oxygen facility. You have no shame to say that PM CARES fund didn’t come. Didn’t you have calculations? You are from IIT. Didn’t you know that making a few oxygen plants cost nothing compared to your state budget and so called landmark health budget? And you are FOOLING EVEN TODAY by saying lies like tomorrow even if there are 30k cases per day Delhi is now going to be equipped. You are a congenital liar. In case your IIT brain can’t calculate properly, let me help you. For every reported case in Delhi, ...

No PM after being elected should ever again be allowed to abdicate his responsibilities and go missing during every crisis. To strengthen democracy in INDIA, the entire MEDIA should come together and demand a LAW which makes it mandatory forever for any PM of INDIA to interact with the media once every fortnight at least for 60 min, & take a minimum of 15 questions from different journalists - 5 each from leading print media, electronic media & online media - with top 20 media houses from each field getting minimum of one chance by rotation to ask questions every two months. This will permanently end the godi media fraud. We can never ever again let a leader of India be unanswerable to it’s people - who are represented by the media - or develop a cosy relationship with a few media houses and keep the people of the INDIA in dark.
