Swara Bhasker Criticises Shah Rukh Khan's Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge, Says It 'Makes Stalking Seem Romantic'

Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge

Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol's cult film Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge completed 25 years yesterday and as Bollywood buffs celebrated the film, Swara Bhasker criticized it.

Swara started off by praising Shah Rukh's character Raj as she posted a few stills of the film's lead pair and captioned it, "Find a guy who looks at you the way Raj looks at Simran!!!! 😻😻😻😻😻 #DDLJ25."

Soon a Twitter user responded to her tweet, highlighting everything that was problematic with Raj's behaviour. The Twitter user wrote, "Raj does the following to Simran:1. Lie that he raped her as a joke

2. Tears her clothes in public (accidentally, but who pulls a woman by the back of her dress anyway?) 3. Forces her to dance, and in the process gropes her and feels up her bare back. Why do women love creeps?"

After reading this, Swara backed his opinion writing, "Sadly u r are right.. I mean abt what all Raj does.. This is precisely the power of #Bollywood right? It makes stalking seem romantic. And we all are influenced by it - sometimes in the form of nostalgia & sometimes despite our own best intent. We all need to learn & change."

Well, we have been saying this since an eon or so 'ladhki ki na mein haan nahi hoti.'
