I think there was nothing left to be discussed after the mother's disclosure when both the brothers are fighting. Both the brothers feel cheated by their mother and there itself there are no issues left between them. Arjun doesn't talk to his mother because he feels his mother never loved and carfed for him enough while all the while he had been trying to do something so that she is proud of him. Rahul is disappointed that his most praised book that people want him to sign is actually not his work. Imagine how you would feel if you come to know that the work you are so proud of is actually not yours.So he also is unhappy with his mother and hence both the brothers don't talk with their brother. This is what is indicated when Daadu has a video chat with both of them.


very well put! Makes sense .. ⭐️

Actually more than this , Mother was disappointed with him coz of his Lies and hence was not talking to him .

I think Fawad did a great job by taking up gay role. Chha gaya woh because of his awesome role and the justice he did to it. It's a standout role and comes only once in a while without having to do any intimate scenes with the other guy.
I don't know if anybody has watched "Philadelphia" Tom Hanks movie. What a movie?
"Brokeback Maountain" last scene makes you shed buckets of tears. So emotional are these two movies.
Honestly, it's high time we start respecting individual's sexual orientation.
Sad to hear that people were making fun of it in US where it is so common and in open.

Yup,but they both leaving their mother and coming back on a small behest of their dadu..I think due to time constraint,it couldn't be shown more which would have been perfect.

i agree, also i was anticipating a scene of both brothers discussing the novel thing, it was a pretty huge thing and the only reason of their rivalry .. they MUST have had a showdown ..


When Arjun almost suffocated rahul to death calling him out chor and how he was again trying to steal his work was the showdown.

He is shown with the book FREEDOM FREE after his mom's disclosure and after Arjun walks out of the house.

The same exact thing happened with me today when I went to watch the movie and I live in India. Now I'm not that surprised it happened because if it can happen in a country like USA then India is way way way behind in acceptance of Gay/Lesbians. I spent most of the time wondering how people could be such... idiots despite being so educated and modern, There was NOTHING funny about the scene to have so many people giggling like fools.
The most horrible moment was when the face off between the mother and son happens, I was so pulled into that moment and on the edge of my seat...only to have idiots around me burst out laughing! 😡
And do they stop? Nope! They continued giggling each time any scene referred to Rahul being gay.

I wouldn't have bothered with the giggling once or twice but every time really put me off. It's really disappointing to see how people are still so backward in their thinking and acceptance of people different from them. And also in a way, it actually made me feel more connected to Fawad's character because if people giggle away like fools just on mere mention of one being gay in a movie than I can't imagine how it would be for a person to live in a society like this being homosexual.


thank you for sharing your experience. Same exact thing happened with me. After the revelation every scene where Rahul is mentioned got giggles and laughter. Any way we can be happy now that the movie has done well. When I left the theater I was like oh no this is career suicide. Thankfully I have been proven wrong 😊

I loved Kapoor and Sons, easily one of the best movies I have seen in recent times.. it was so realistic and simple and it made you laugh and cry at the same time! Rishi was incredibly funny, Fawad Khan stole the show and Alia Bhatt did amazing in whatever few scenes she had!

Some scenes which stood out: (spoilers)
- Alia Bhatt's breakdown. This was the first scene I cried, she was so good that I became all emotional in one second. I think everyone who does not have parents could relate to her when she said 'please come back, I miss you.' She really owned this scene, the fact that SHE was the one who made me cry instantly says so much about her acting power!
- When Fawad Khan stops at Anu's house and finds his father there. His expressions when he walks out, I could totally feel for him, he was SO good in that scene!
- The family scene when they are all together and start singing and dancing. That was such a lovely moment which really stays with you after the movie.

There were so many other scenes which were so funny, like with the plumber, or Boobli, or the Fawad-Alia scenes and especially Rishi with his I-papad was hilarious.

It was shocking when Rajat died, I thought Rishi would die in the end. And I didn't expect the gay angle. I really thought it would be a love triangle, and I was really hoping that Alia would end up with Fawad. I also did not expect that Rajat really was cheating on Ratna. So thats what I also loved about this movie, that it was unpredictable and totally the opposite of what I expected.

Got to say that Siddharth was SO bad in that confrontation scene with his mom. It was cringeworthy when he was yelling at his mom, he was so afwul, he really should work on the emotional scenes. Except for that scene, he was decent and yummy to look at.

Still Fawad deserves a second mention as for me he was the highlight of the whole movie, ohmygod WHAT ACTING! So effortless, so natural, I can't explain how good he was. Can't wait to see him in another movie!
