DDLJ Completes 25 Years Of Release: Swara Bhasker Disparages Shah Rukh Khan’s Character ‘Raj’; Says, ‘It Made Stalking Seem Romantic’
Yesterday, Bollywood’s iconic film Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge completed 25 years of its release. The film not only became the biggest blockbusters of all time, it also gave us Bollywood one and only Raj Simran played by Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol, respectively. Helmed by directed by Aditya Chopra, the film is hailed as the most loved romantic film in the history of Indian cinema. On the occasion of DDLJ completing 25 years, Swara Bhasker made headlines when she called stated that SRK’s character Raj made stalking romantic. 

It so happened, when Swara shared a couple of stills from the movie and wrote, “Find a guy who looks at you the way Raj looks at Simran!!!! #DDLJ25,” and a user re-tweeted her tweet and pointed out some points from the film asking ‘Why women love creeps’?. The tweet read, “Raj does the following to Simran: 1. Lie that he raped her as a joke 2. Tears her clothes in public (accidentally, but who pulls a woman by the back of her dress anyway?) 3. Forces her to dance, and in the process gropes her and feels up her bare back Why do women love creeps?”

Reacting to the same, Swara agreed the fact and said SRK’s character Raj made stalking look romantic. Swara tweeted, “Sadly u r are right.. I mean abt what all Raj does.. This is precisely the power of #Bollywood right? It makes stalking seem romantic. And we all are influenced by it - sometimes in the form of nostalgia & sometimes despite our own best intent. We all need to learn & change :) :)”
