Using Bhajans As Excuse To Hit On Women (Manchali)

In Bollywood, Namaz deserves a dignified and meditative setting, while Bhajans are just an excuse for the hero to flirt with the heroine. Watch this gem featuring Sanjeev Kumar and Leena Chandavarkar in ‘Manchali’, a movie written by communist Krishan Chander.

Bollywood’s logic is that her irritation will turn into love eventually, so his behaviour is not harassment. But would they have introduced this so-called cuteness overload in a setting where the family is reading namaz? We know the answer.

In Urduwood, bhajans are legit ways for romantic fun and targeting girls without consent

But ever saw a scene where someone is having similar fun while offering Namaz?
