Mr. India & Shahenshah

Mr. India & Shahenshah

What’s common to the heroines of Mr. India & Shahenshah (both Hindi movies for the uninitiated) ? Amongst several other things that one can think of, the one that struck me is this -> Both characters are hopelessly in love with real characters in the guise of heroes, who do something that the real characters couldn’t do as themselves.

Which brings me to this, what would happen if one ended up getting married to someone whom one was fascinated with, due to certain attributes of that object of one’s affection (OOOA) or due to some actions of that OOOA.

I will try and avoid repeating myself and point the interested reader to an older blog, where I was raving about women.

What happens when, (to paraphrase using Mr India) one looks at the object of one’s affection through the red glasses!? Does he/she turn into one’s Sum of All Fears ?

We had this friend of ours, whom we called « Dil Fake » from the Hindi for « someone who loses his heart (dil – heart, fake – Hindi for throw) too quickly, from the guy’s tendency to lose his heart, rather too quickly to someone who appealed to him. I know perfectly what the guy must have been thinking each time (reminds you of Saif’s character in Dil Chahta Hai, doesn’t it ?) ! I mean how much is enough to know about a person to fall in love ?

And why am I writing this ?

How would we know? Should we wait for the answer, or rather news, from you ;)
