Pathaan - discussion (with spoilers) - Page 35

We crossed Dangal collections yesterday to be the highest grossing original hindi film 🥳🥳

pooja, I liked your "we"...that is quite touching and makes me smile...it's like belonging to a big family that only wishes good 😊

snatch, thanks for underlining it...yes, Pathaan indeed used the expression "outsourced" (subtitle)...that those terrorists claimed the deed but in fact payed Outfit X for doing it (which isn't even an 'utopian' thought, I think).

Capricorn, I agree with you that Deepika's character isn't "well rounded"...there definitely is a lack of information. John's and SRK's characters a better crafted.

Kamala, not everything in the plot was "predictable" (imo), but I agree that the movie might not have become this overwhelming success-story without the love for ShahRukh and the hype of watching him again. Many people may go into the cinema with already a positive mind...

Personally, I found something to discover additionally in the repeated viewings I did...and the things that defy belief/logic, don't bother me in an action movie. I also prefered the plot in Pathaan in comparison to War.

If it is a - for me - possible task, I'll at least try to oblige 😉

Excerpts from the Variety article, BubbleTea posted (p.43):

In 1993:

“One day, it was Adi’s birthday, and he asked me if I will do a film and I said ‘I would love to do it,’ And then he narrated something where I would be an action hero,...I really wanted to play an action hero because no one was offering me that genre.... Then Adi came and narrated the film to me in Mehboob studio – that film was ‘Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge.’ I was like where is the action in this? ... Adi said we will do it next. But then we did ‘Dil To Pagal Hai’. That also did well, but we never did the action. ... Then when they came last, Adi told me that he will come with Sid and narrated the first 15 minutes. ... They came, narrated the script and left. I was sitting with my manager Pooja. I told her ‘Adi is lying’. He will not make an action film. ..."

In 2023:

"I am very happy that Adi kept his promise. And I am happier that with ‘Pathaan,’ I have proven to Adi that I can do action as well."

There is a saying:

Good things take time 😊

...and another saying:

Everything at the proper time 😊

Thread 🧵

Bubble Tea, it's nice to contribute by posting another viewer's opinion (I've read the thread) , but what is YOUR take?

I came here looking for spoilers here.....but the BO spoils are no where to be found. Pathaan has destroyed them all. 😭
