Dostana

Dostana is one of the sickest movie ever to have been made in India.  It is beyond my understanding and sensibilities for sure.  

 It makes fun of the gays; it makes fun of those that are straight; it makes a mockery of the words friendship and love.  It is vulgar, it is demented, it is worse than a C grade cheap film made in Bhojpuri.  Had it been any other film maker even David Dhawan or M F Hussain people would have burnt the movie halls and vandalised muliplexes.  But since it is from 'the great' Karan Johar people still want to go see the movie.  

In fact the original Dostana which was a predictable love triangle was 100 times better.   On the subject of homo-sexuality 2 good movies I have seen are Philadelphia and My brother Nikhil.  But I do not know what message does this Dostana want to convey.  

 

In fact had it not been for Priyanka Chopra (oomph as well as some little bit of acting) I would have left the movie after 1/2 an hour. 

Karan Johar started with a good fresh kind of movie in Kuchh Kuchh Hota Hai. This was mostly based in India.  Then came Kabhie khushi kabhie gham half of which was based in the UK; this was an average passable movie.  Then Kabhi Alvida na Kahna which was the worst from Karan Johar till then; it was totally based in the US.  This one has proved that the 'great' director is on a consistently steady decline even when he now makes movies only for the Punjabis based in the West.  

Wonder why was he trying to make fun of the gays while also making straights look perverted ?
