Shared by @GemsOfBollywood — In saudagar, Subhash Ghai had a scene where Amrish Puri is doing keerta

Original source ↗

In saudagar, Subhash Ghai had a scene where Amrish Puri is doing keertan with full devotion. Subhash Ghai has shown mockery of Hindu values and symbols in every film. He is low quality film maker who pushed sleaze. Now overhyped by government as cinema expert.

In Bollywood movie Saudagar, Amrish Puri played role of a tharki villian with multiple marriages. Notice the tripund tilak. This tilak wasn't necessary. It was done to normalise the association of Hindu symbols with evil. And that's how Bollywood has always worked. In reality, Abdul marries 3-4 times as per his religious laws. But, they won't show it in movies because Abdul Chicha's role of a good old guy is fixed in movies.
