He is one of the leads. But I’m also guessing the fakeout is to make it past some of the shittier rightwingers who’d definitely start riots over this.

You think so? It’s interesting, all the same and reflects the state of things, I guess. They can make the movie but promoting it is a different thing. And heh, my comment about being lead was mostly angry hyperbole, I know he is a lead, but not the lead. But there was more of him (and his viewpoint) than Sonam or Anil’s. Presumably they’re holding back her parts with the other girl and thus the full story?

@booasaur I don’t necessarily follow Bollywod films but even when they released the teaser 6 months ago there was absolutely zero mention of a coming out story and then the full trailer dropped and we all clued in. I’m hoping that we don’t get the female version of the song but it’s like the sad version because I won’t be able to take that.

Idk maybe I’ve just been living outside of that cultural bubble where I just except Bollywood to do an outright wlw film if they say they are going to do one. The spin seems more about the process of coming out. Who knows if there is some sort of resolution at the end of the film.

OMG! Even the youtube hashtag is letlovebe but again you’d think it was about the guy & girl.

As for what will happen on the 1st? ����‍♀️. They still need to fill seats so they need to sell it in a package that makes sense. 

Oh yeah, I didn’t even think about it but we should get a female version of the song. Wow, yeah! A woman singing it? So powerful! I’d forgive everything if that happened, lol. Shreya Ghoshal, please, get on that.

It’s definitely gonna be less about romance and more about the father-daughter relationship and I guess the friendship between Rajkumar’s character and Sonam’s as he…learns to accept she won’t ever be in love with him and then he helps her? The whole “unexpected romance” tagline and #letlovebe don’t make sense if it’s het, they just don’t.

I hope this is just straightbaiting

It’s gotta be, right? Though I dunno if tricking people is the best way to go…putting off the storm as long as they can, lol.

@booasaur if the average person watches this without knowing anything about the film they’d have no clue about the wlw storyline in the film. The entire video reads from his viewpoint (granted from the trailer he looks like he’s retelling a story) and I’m guessing that’s how Bollywood wants the vast majority of its audience to view the film.

Is this…a surprise they’re going to spring on people? A trap they’ve set for them? What do they think will happen on the 1st when it premieres?
