The cliches i have been through in indian cinema

Karan johar says "I love cliches".

Well the whole of india likes them and thats the exact reson why indian cinema has remained stagnant- thanks to some mavericks it got revived thru the "hinglish" culture- and CLICHED .

Be it the K-thing with karan johar or the gyration of our choli strapped heroines or else the temperate behaviour of our leading men who never feel like touching a sexy drenched heroine for reasons best known to them(thanks to the likes of shawar ali,aryan vaid,emraan hashmi heroes are perceived as normal men).

A beautiful and rich girl falls in love with a poor guy because of the only reason that he loves her more than his own life. Now this stupid girl needs to be told that a beautiful and rich girl is a dream combo and any guy will do anything to get that combo. But NAH.. She wills against her dad and elopes with this good-for-nothing-except-loving guy.

The one cliche i love in indian cinema is nirupa roy.

The following are some of the cliches i have lived through in my cinematic experiences.

Even karan johar got bored of the bromides like culture,ethics ad infinitum and is making kabhi alvida na kehna which is based on extra marital affairs.

Now menage-a-trois is not a cliche in indian movies.

P.S.: One instance where i saw how assimilated the cliches in our blood
I was watching kal ho naa ho and in the supposedly mawkish climax where srk is bound to die and saif n preity confront him.. And while this scene is going on there was an another scene going on beside me. There was a cute little gujarati girl crying inconsolably.
She was telling her mom "director gadhedoche bhagavan ka help kyun nahi leta !!"

Hows tht for a cliche ??
