Her feelings did change drastically because of one dialogue
Rahul would have found many women after Tina's death who would be wearing sarees and wear good looking but he remained celibate for 8 years after her death, raising his daughter as a single father so in my opinion, there's more to do with the past he shared with Anjali than her clothes
Sexism can be called out for everyone for Anjali who put down other girls because they liked wearing shorts and make up?
For Aman who was obsessed that his Anjali has to be the most beautiful Anjali when he meets a random stranger who also happens to have an Anjali at home
Point being it was a rom-com. I don't connect my life and friends to it because dynamics I share with my friends are different from them.
I get your point but you're ignoring all the symbolism that was pushed. The clothes mattered way too much . You cannot say it was a coincidence. Even going by what you're saying , that epiphany during the game he played doesn't justify the sheer objectification of Anjali's body by Rahul. Good for him if he was celibate all those years but maybe this was his 8 year itch lol. I wasn't comparing my life to a movie, I was trying to say people don't sexualise their friends the way it's shown in the movie. Actually it's harder in real life to resist certain distractions but if your friendship is worth anything you put the person above their sexuality or appearance. This movie didn't even make an attempt to consider that . That's the problem. Well yes it's a rom com or a rom dram and it has all the failings of that genre . I'm not judging it from a 'woke ' POV...it was problematic even by the standards of the 90s in the sense that it was quite lazily put together.
