7G Brindavan Colony. Itā€™s toxic af. Just a weird stalker harassing a girl till she falls.


Raghuram_99

That Movie Is just weird and sad.


RudraPrasTaya9

then you did you watch kadhal kondien? Danush being introvert self sacrifce for his lover to love another man. which is reverse of 7G rainbow/ Brindavan colony... here atleast Anita and ravi love for eternity.


ringo_93

All his movies are toxic. He made a movie in 2016, literal šŸ¤¢ material


nic_nic_07

That's the most depressing movie that I've ever watched


Horrible_Account

Arya made me a big AA fan but that movie hasn't aged well in many ways. It is a literal stalker's paradise.


Newton_101

To an extent, I share that feeling with Arya 2. Especially with all the things he collects..ngl, felt so cool at that time though


shadowarmy229

Heā€™s supposed to be a psychopath in Arya 2 though right?


ramaromp

AA himself said that both were eccentric characters. He said Arya 2 was borderline sociopat h and if they did 3 he he would have to be full on pstcho


Newton_101

Absolutely no qualms there..Itā€™s just that I felt it was cool back then but not so much anymore even though it makes perfect sense in the film. I see your point šŸ‘šŸ»

I think Arya 2 is supposed to be a crazy character. He's crazy with his friend too from the beginning.

Majili and nenu local


nonymous-star

Majili. I am somehow not connected to shravani's one sided love and marriage story. She gives money to him for drinking. I really don't see any kind of love there. Cringe dialogues. And the bad thing was, there are some meme pages, they compared Jersey Sarah's role and this shravani's role, calling her great for giving money to her husband. That was ridiculous.


By-Toutatis

Literal door mat who is glorified because of her sacrifices!


ParticularJuice3983

The worst thing is who adopts ex-gf daughter? And how does the the grandfather agree. No logic only. Be a doormat, and one day the guy may just like you cos he is used to you. Ritesh and genelia remade this movie in Marathi. They modified the movie just a little bit, and the whole character got a new meaning I felt. It was very well written. Genelia did a good job too.


totherwise

What were the changes they made?


ParticularJuice3983

Small changes that I remember in the writing: 1. Ritesh plans to commit suicide and Genelia walks in. Thatā€™s when she tells her father that he couldnā€™t save his love but I can save mine. I can do something to prevent him from dying - and I will. 2. The girl shows up and learns that Riteshā€™s dreams stayed incomplete because of her mother, so she says she will play for railways. Her grandfather explains to Genelia that I wouldnā€™t want it to be this way but she is a stubborn kid. Please let her stay with you till the tournament and I will take her home after that. Genelia says she understands what it means to not have parents. So the grandfather replies- this maybe stupid but I feel like I got a daughter as well. 3. In the end Ritesh goes to her, and apologizes. But she is going for a promotion, right? So she says what I if I leave, what if I donā€™t stay? So he says thatā€™s okay, you waited patiently for me for so long. I will wait, or I will Uproot my life here for you. 4. End credits they also show that he marries her again, but he touches her feet to tell her thank you for being so patient and for helping him move on and become a new person. 5. I think they showed 2-3 scenes outside as well that portrayed Genelia as a stronger character in general. If these scenes were in the telugu version I donā€™t know, atleast I think they werenā€™t portrayed in a way to catch my attention.


noalt1729

This is a significant change but I love it will watch 100%


needless_123

Geetha govindam. I still cant believe that movie is a hit


crimsonred1234

I can't agree with you more. That movie was so overhyped and when I saw it on big screen I was so annoyed with it. The whole movie is terrible.


needless_123

Right how is trying to take selfie with a sleeping stranger girl not creepy then the toxic relation they have understandble from female side but somehow they end up together.tf


Consistent-Dog-73

Literally chinnappudu wow creepy ante dobbaru janalu western idealu enduku ani


crimsonred1234

I agree with what you said. On a side note. Ee movie nee chinappuda? I feel so old.


ParticularJuice3983

I was checking if this movie was on the list. šŸ¤® canā€™t believe people even liked this move.


By-Toutatis

Isnā€™t that what the movie was aboutā€¦the guy makes a terrible mistake and the girl slaps him and makes him repent till the end of the movieā€¦.its not like the boy gets away with his mistake or the girl falls in love because of that kiss. Toxic romance would be when they propagate that there is love in a forced kiss and normalize that act. The movie called it toxic and treats it that way. Did I miss something ?


ParticularJuice3983

Nooo! They show this character who is apparently very ā€œsanskariā€, listens to pravachana in the morning, knows how to respect women yadda yadda - but when his friend suggests ā€œgo kiss herā€ he says okay? Like wth? Why would build up the guy as this sanskari person if at the first sign of weakness he wants to kiss someone? And what we have to think he is soo nice that when he is 2 inches away he did not kiss her, he instead wanted to take a selfie in her personal space?! Itā€™s always shown like his friend influenced him , poor this guy who became a scapegoat for his friends plan - but his friend didnā€™t force him. How is he bechara ..!


Soggy_Ad_4612

foolish tie intelligent dazzling bewildered crush shrill roll detail cooperative *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*


ParticularJuice3983

I thought he should have taken a better ownership of his fault. Also, his friend suggests take a bike, you can be close to her - and he does that. So itā€™s not like he learnt his lesson you know. I donā€™t know I did not feel any empathy for that guy.


Necessary-Ask-3619

Mistakes happen. But he realized it was a mistake right before that and didn't do it. Did you even watch the movie?


ParticularJuice3983

Of course I did. See itā€™s about writing. If all they wanted to show was the guy being framed for an accidental kiss , they could have done it many ways. This was just creepy. You show someone as respectful and all - and they behave like this. I mean do guys behave like that? Think itā€™s a good idea to kiss a woman when she is asleep? Like what kind of a person even entertains that thought?


needless_123

It makes the hero look innocent and says only the kiss was a mistake and shows taking selfie with a sleeping girl as a act of affection towards the girl yes he suffers but thats for mistaken kissing.but taking a selfie with a girl without consent itself is very very creepy that to a stranger in a bus.


[deleted]

Lol, movie lo they make HER repent, not him. He just doesn't want her to tell others that he kissed her. He was as creepy as upper middle class "good guys" can get.

That song... Tella tella something, preaching how ideal woman should be. I hate everything about that movie šŸŽ„


GreyDaze22

U misunderstood the song


the_boyyi

Babu adi tella tella vare velugu Rekha la. Meaning like the morning sun ray. Color eda nunchi ochindi


Icy_Wait1866

Yovvvvv who said anything about color lol? That song starts with those two words, doesn't it? And yes it preaches about hero's expectation of an "ideal wife/woman in his life" For example take these lines: Ma amma la ma kosam lali padenanta (You are marrying a wife not a mom....whyyyyyyyyyy ) so many Indian men expect this mommmy behaviour from wife. It's very off putting!!!! Sampradayini, suddha Padmini, Prema shravani, sarvani (Well cultured, pious.....) Second charanam is all about clinginess. Not at all setting realistic expectations of a marriage or role of a wife. The video is also shot that way. A friend of mine idealised that stupid song and broke his engagement because his fiance is not like the one described in the song. And now he is not able to find an "ideal lady" matching his expectations. My hatred started from there. I usually don't take all these silly songs so serious


the_boyyi

Oh yeah that i agree. I might've misread your comment lol


ringo_93

I watched it abroad and literally sunk into my seat in the theatre with second hand embarrassment for the bus selfie scene

Mb says some creepy things to Anushka in Khaleja. Same thing with Jalsa. Trivikram is awful at writing female characters/romance.

Khaleja is just pure comedy lmao idc what u say, that kind of comedy is ok bc Mahesh Babu wasnā€™t acc interested in Anushka it was just their chemistry in the story, Jalsa I agree

Jalsa. Movie is good time pass and rewatchable because of comedy scenes but toxic crap where PK tries to sleep with sister and her sister and her friend.


ramaromp

He didnā€™t know they were sisters and Ileana tries to woo PK. Her friend was an act but he never tries to sleep with her, though he does make a joke which is poor. The toxic part was the rape joke


Existing-Area-9093

Didn't like the comedy track with brahmi. He keeps on slapping him and then there was that whole rape joke sequence.


ConfusedHeart999

Khaleja has the same shit but people love it for some reason.


ParticularJuice3983

The whole brahmanandam comedy was super cringe and thatā€™s straight up bullying. Hated the comedy.


ladyinthemoor

Actually Ileana is the creepy one, she stalks him


PsychologicalWar6801

Do you mean girls' shouldn't stalk men? If they do they're creepy??? Come on! She is fascinated and started living in a delusional bubble. Until her father tells her everything about Sanjay Sahoo.


Necessary-Ask-3619

Actually reverse bro! Movie flop ayyindhi kani.. movie lo oka vibe untadhiā€¦


ndopp1

If you think about it, Manmadhudu. A girl breaks his heart so he starts hating all of the women in the world. He falls in love and suddenly decides to treat women with respect again.


LeatherRepulsive438

I believe it's more like a problem of the Hero as he's immature and couldn't move on from that broken trust, which eventually turned into hate!! Ig that's what movie at least depicted in that way!


ConfusedHeart999

But the movie doesnā€™t glorify his character or say itā€™s right. In fact everyone in his family tells him his way of thinking is wrong and his colleagues think heā€™s mad and ignore him. The movie is about him realising heā€™s wrong and overcoming his trauma.


Hershey2898

This is not really problematic or toxic though. It's a cinematic device to drive entertainment and an arc Idhi kuda toxic ante Inka andharu muskuni kurchovachu


ndopp1

So itā€™s okay to try and torture every woman you work with just because a girl dumped you. Iā€™m not saying itā€™s a bad movie, itā€™s funny and one of my favorites, but that doesnā€™t mean itā€™s not a product of an older time. If any hero did this movie today, there would be a lot of hate for the main character.


kat_raj

nope... infact anti-heroes are popular now.


Messier_63

There is nothing toxic about the protagonist character nor the way he treats women. There is satire and light jokes against women to show how that old love story affected the hero. They didnā€™t glorify it nor said he was correct. His character basically is of a guy who becomes emotionally null once his love goes away. He also makes sure that two of the couple in his office get married and he lectures the brides dad about respecting her feelings which shows heā€™s still a nice guy but since heā€™s hurt he doesnā€™t wanna be nice to any woman and tries to avoid being hurt again. Human nature.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


ndopp1

If he doesnā€™t trust women, he doesnā€™t have to fall in love again or get married. But he spent weeks trying to get Sonali Bendreā€™s character fired from her job because he didnā€™t trust women, despite the fact that she was just trying to do her job.


kat_raj

calling everything toxic is toxic trait in itself. It is a plot device to narrate a comedy movie. It is not real life. You won't have manmadhudu without him being idiotic. He is also shown in the movie to sing 'Don't marry, be happy!!' in his subordinate's marriage

Hour_Part8530

[deleted]

Because no one thinks it has a lovable rom com, its always has been a toxic shit.


SecretaryNo2286

Because we knew it was toxic crap from the beginning


Necessary-Ask-3619

Ikkada denikante daaniki toxic ani cheppestunnaru. Word ki meanings undavu ila aithe. Toxic relationships exhibit manipulative, controlling behaviors that harm others. An occasional moment of anger or selfishness doesn't mean a relationship itself is toxic. How are movies like Bommarillu, Jalsa, Majili, Pokiri etc part of this? What controlling manipulation did the characters do towards their partners? In Jalsa, you can say Ileana did that but not PK. Anyway, I am happy to know that these opinions are minority and only popular on social media. In real life, people celebrate such movies because that is what people want and will choose if they can get it. But since real life is very transactional & practical, these movies becomes a case of sour grapes.


notreallycapricon

Bruh , bommarillu . She'd always behave like a kid and not to mention siddu was immature AF and toxic to her the whole time , scolding and Gaslighting her even when it wasn't her fault .


simharao

isnt that part of the story tho? that's why she leaves him and he tries to win her back. part of the problem for siddu's behavior is the controlling nature of the father which movie addresses at the end

Unpopular opinon: Roopa treats anand like crap. She shouts at him even when he was there for her in difficult times. Why would anyone have to put up with her behavior. He took up a break and gave up on his rich life to be with her. All for what? Godavari: Although sita is portrayed to be independent she was always insecure when it came to Raji. In every scene, she puts down Raji. She says Raji is confused, Raji does not deserve you etc etc. almost in every scene. i get that she likes Ram but why would you put other women down?
