Films with adult humour get a nod
A still from the movie Kyaa Super Cool Hain Hum
Bollywood audience has opened up to watching kink, thinks Varun Parashar, an assistant programme manager with a telecom firm. Varun is one of those who watched the recently released adult comedy Kyaa Super Kool Hain Hum.
“Though I went to watch the film for pure entertainment, I agree that today’s youth have developed a taste for sexual undertones and adult jokes. Youngsters prefer such movies over family dramas,” he says.
Going by the response and audience that Kyaa Super Kool Hain Hum is getting, sex comedies seem to have come of age. There was a time when the same viewers rejected movies likeMumbai Matinee and Yeh Kya Ho Raha Hai? because of the sexual undertones. But now, they are laughing over some “dirty jokes”.
Actor Tusshar Kapoor thinks that today’s audience is more than ready for adult comedies. “Our first film Kyaa Kool Hai Hum (2005) was way ahead of its time. Earlier, people thought that families stay away from such films, but it’s not so. If Delhi Belly with its toilet humour was accepted, why wouldn’t our film be accepted? People asked me about the sequel to Kya Kool…, but we were in no hurry, as we were looking for the right script. Plus, it isn’t easy to make a film like this.”
Abhinay Deo, director of Delhi Belly agrees. He says that Indian audience has always been ready for adult comedies. “I have not seen the movie (Kyaa Super Kool Hain Hum) so I won’t comment on it, but I feel that Bollywood audience was always ready for such movies. Sexual and adult jokes exist since donkey years and now that they have come into cinema. It shows that they are getting wide scale acceptance. And anything done in aesthetic manner always works,” he concludes.
