Hollywood? That deserves its own list, what with American screens having provided the audiences with some of the most alluring heroines who have dominated epics of the romantic genre. This is, oddly, in sharp contrast to the Western examples of the romantic novel, a genre that expressed the female aspirations and desires and were lapped up by millions of female readers. Granted, it’s usually been a male industry with the hero Krishnafied for his excesses.
It has taught generations how to love, as young men and women have emulated Bollywood imagination and imagery to further their own romantic careers. From its earliest days, Hindi cinema’s entire language and idiom has been built on love, romance and music. From the Khans and Kapoors on guitar (SRK strumming one in Jab Tak Hai Jaan or his famous mandolin scene in DDLJ, Ranbir Kapoor in “Sadda haq,” Aamir Khan in “Papa kehte hain” and Salman Khan in “Oh oh jaane jaana”) to the ubiquitous piano played by Bollywood stars over the years (Sriram Raghavan’s Andhadhun had compiled a dummy’s guide to the piano players of Bollywood on its end credit, but was reportedly dropped for copyright reasons), love and music are Siamese twins on Hindi screens. Guitars, saxophones (Shammi Kapoor in Teesri Manzil), violins ( Raj Kapoor in Barsaat) and pianos are the favourite instruments of love. More precisely, when a Hindi film hero is in love - or just lost his love - it’s a time-tested cue to a song.
It is also said that Katrina Kaif and Vicky Kaushal’s wedding was attended by 120 guests including, Neha Dhupia, Kabir Bedi, Gurdas Mann, Shankar Mahadevan, Ali Abbas Zaffar, Sidharth Malhotra, Karan Johar, Farah Khan, and many more stars from B-town.Most Bollywood buffs have a large memory bank to draw from when it comes to romantic movies. The source further adds that Vicky Kaushal and Katrina Kaif’s honeymoon is Kaushal’s idea as it’s always been his dream to recreate a Bollywood-themed, long holiday of the exotic locales of Europe he’s seen in movies like Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge, Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara, and Chandni.Īlso, considering that Kaif has been reportedly calling most of the shots for their wedding, such as getting the guests to sign NDAs, making entry via security codes mandatory, requesting guests to not use phones, and more, the honeymoon is being done according to Vicky’s wishes, as per the report.
The vacation is expected to be for at least two months and will begin once both actors wrap up their pending work assignments.
