WHY PYAAR KA PUNCHNAMA IS NOT MYSOGYNIST

PYAAR KA PUNCHNAMA 2 is termed as misogynistic  by most critics.

A misogynist is a person who hates or doesn't trust women.A misogynist is from Greek misogynḗs, from the prefix miso- "hatred" plus gynḗ "a woman." The English suffix -it means "person who does something." Whereas The equivalent for "man-hating" is misandry. Hence misandrist is one who hates men, a man-hater 

In my view, movie should be viewed as a Story, not as a statement.It's someone perspective ,in a fun way.I am sure, Luv ranjan(writer & director ), is not running campaign to denounce girls or promoting Singlehood through his movies. 


I wonder why would critics take comedy movie as a social statement.However, these critics or pseudo-feminists have no problem with the  portrayal of Women in other movies.

Baring women-oriented movies from 'Mother India' in Past to  most recent 'Queen' and Insaaf ka Tarazu, Phool bane Anagarey, Khoon bhari Maang.Chandini Bar ,English Vinglish like  movies in between,Majorityof  movies use women like show pieces.

Lets take 'Classic' examples not wayward cases.How Supriya of PKP2 is Different from Legendary Simran of Dilwale Dulhaniya le Jayenge or Kavya of Humpty Sharma ki Dulhaniya.These Girls too cant go against parent's wish to marry a guy she likes.

'Mujhe yahan see le chaloo Raj ' is perfect because she simply can not do anything.Anjali  of Kuch Kuch hota hai waits for 8 years for her first love ,evenwhen he marries the Hot chick and does not bother to search her best friend.She helplessly want to get married to him.

Is Chikoo of PKP2 is different from Poo in K3G having guys drooling over her or getting her car parked and having 2 sidekicks.Kusum the money minded girlfriend is different from any other character.

Then there films starring where heroines just play the damsel in distress ready to be rescued or they simply dancing seductively.Are these not more caricature like Sonakshi Sinha in any movie, Katrina  or even Deepika in Om Shanti Om.Is this more real portrayal than in Pyaar ka punchnama.

The film shows only a one-sided view of things.But are not most film unidimensional.

Take a case of Most successful film  '3 idiots'.You laugh when the  'Rancho' changes the speech of "Silencer'  and  because of his not knowing Hindi, he is made a scapegoat.What if he committed suicide due to public shaming? Does the What is his fault that he is the nerdy guy trying to score good marks.are these not bullying or ragging that  Rancho was against in its first place.

But we laugh because it movie about Rancho not silencer.

Or take the case of Suhas, A guy is on the verge of getting married with due  consent of the girl. The girl runs away midway without offering any explanation to him ,for the person she didn't meet in last 5 years.We all hail the act,just because the movie is about Rancho not suhas 

Movies are made for fun and not for the statement .If I like Bazigar that does not mean I am potential Killer who can throw his Girlfriend off the terrace. Or If I Laughed with Govinda in Collie No.1 mean I intend to two-time my wife to be.

We may not agree things shown in the movie  but we can absolutely have a good laugh about.
