Thank You AIB for putting profanity on such a high pedestal which makes it sound almost profound.. So profound that people didn't mind paying good money to pay for the tickets.. (Oops.. It goes for charity .. you see..)
Thanks for educating us that it is indeed SUPERCOOL to punctuate every sentence with multiple profanities & one can even go a step further, if one can vandalize their vocabulary to such an extent that sentences are populated more by profanities than by proper words.
Yes.. Thanks to the Constitution, we are blessed with a right for free speech which includes the right to offend and insult, especially when it is consensual and even be liberal with one's profanities.
Yes.. Humour is highly subjective.. What is funny to some could be totally unfunny or even abusive to others..
&
Yes.. Insult, Abuse, Raunchy and even Profanities could certainly be counted as categories of comedy
But..
Personally, I felt while there were some genuinely funny moments strewn around the whole episode, the entire theme of couching everything in a canvas flooded with expletives appeared utterly hollow and trying too hard to appear cool.
Yes.. The viewer has the choice to choose to ignore it or view it on his/her own volition and having watched the same, cannot react as if the contents were forced down their throats.
And.. there is no gainsaying that the ability to laugh at one self is an essential component of maturity. But, if this is to be considered as your/Bollywood's attempt to mimic maturity, it seemed as hollow as most of the regular tepid fare that Bollywood dishes out on a weekly basis.
And, it is utterly unsurprising considering the fact that it was anchored by none other than (KKK)Karan Johar - the heartthrob/poster-boy of all things hollow & a master of vacuous fluff which pass off as blockbusters in the largely silly universe that goes by the name of Bollywood.
