I have seen over 1000 Bollywood videos, and I am amazed at the portrayal of women in India. Several movies, this one included, have had the line "an Indian woman only loves once in her life". Is this true, or is it just a social opinion thrust on females through cinematic reinforcement? If it is true, someone should have told Ganga that she was not in love. True love is something that is formed BETWEEN two people, it occurs when an attraction is reciprocated. What she had was a major crush, something that stems from teenage immaturity. Watching the moronic back and forth between her and Jamuna, each so willing to sacrifice their own happiness for the other, was painfully irritating. They acted as if Shyam had no say whatsoever in the matter. Women are still being treated as if they lack the intellectual maturity to "get over" someone without committing suicide. Copycats exist everywhere, media is a major influence. Show real women with strength and eliminate some of the nonsense drivel regarding female emotions. Skip this movie if you hate fairy tales, really dumb ones.
