Yeah I know it's not March yet and I'm writing again. Well what to do? I'm moody!
This post is about some of my favorite scenes from Shah Rukh's movies that are rather emotional.
Scene 1: From My Name Is Khan, Mandira's proposal on the hill.
When Rizwan bets with Mandira that he'd find one place in San Francisco which Mandira has never seen and if he succeeds, Mandira would have to marry him. After a lot of hard work and numerous tries, Rizwan finds the most beautiful place which Mandira has never seen. Earlier we saw that Rizwan would keep asking Mandira to marry him and after seeing that beautiful place, an compelled and surprised Mandira, proposes herself to Rizwan. Rizwan blushes and giggles. Hehe, why I like this scene so much is because of Rizwan's giggle. Well, that's not the full reason. The whole part of the movie actually taught me that when you love something/someone, it's not easy to get it/him/her. You have to work hard. It's not about impressing the person you love. Rizwan didn't find that place in order to impress Mandira but to win her heart and make her his forever.
Scene 2: From Om Shanti Om, Om Kapoor tells Sandy his story.
After Sandy fails to flawlessly become Shanti, Om gets mad at her and yells at her. Then Pappu advices him to stop getting angry and tell her the whole reason as to why he wants her to become like Shanti. Om tells Sandy the story and adds that nobody would believe in this unbelievable tale of his. Sandy argues that she does believe him. She believes in everything Om does, even if it's onscreen. I like this scene because of the trust Sandy shows in Om. Then it got me thinking about my trust on Shah Rukh. When I watch his movies, I actually believe in the characters he portrays and every action he enacts. One reason I like Shah Rukh as an actor is because he makes the story believable to some extent.
Scene 3: From Veer Zaara, Veer and Zaara meet for the last time before 22 years.
After Zaara's mother tells Veer about the consequences if Zaara doesn't marry Raza, Veer immediately agrees to leave Pakistan and promises to talk with Zaara. When they meet, Veer and Zaara talk about the few moments they spent together. Then to lighten up the moment, Veer jokes with her about how she will be like in the future after having lots of children. They hug and cry, brave up to get separated. I love this scene a lot, it makes me cry to watch it actually. Veer and Zaara didn't know each other for too long yet the love portrayed in this scene makes me feel they have known each other since eons. The portrayal of pain, I could feel it. And I have no experience in love whatsoever.
Scene 4: From Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi, Taani gets to know the truth of Suri and Raj.
On stage during the last performance, Suri sheds Raj's look and appears as himself to perform with Taani. Taani, shocked, manages to perform with Suri. While dancing with Suri, Taani remembers few of the moments she spent with Raj and Suri. After the performance is over, Suri expects an angry Taani to question him but instead he finds a teary-eyed Taani asking him how could he love her so much when she never reciprocated his love. The reason why I like this scene is because. Yeah, I just like it. Taani's misconception of love meaning giving-and-taking is broken. I LIKE IT. I for one never believed and will never believe that there is something called give love/receive love. That's called selfishness and not love. People say that no point in loving someone who doesn't love you. But if you feel good loving that "non-lover" then why not?
These four scenes are some of the emotional scenes I love and perhaps can watch again and again. I could write about the other scenes too but at the moment, I feel lazy. Another thing I realized about while writing this post is that I have hardly been watching Shah Rukh's older movies. Shall do, when I get more time.
Take care & love to all!
