7 Things That We Bet You Would Always Find In a Sooraj Barjatiya Movie!
Updated : November 12, 2018 05:33 PM ISTIf you ever had the wild desire to watch the melodramatic TV serials in 70 mm, Sooraj Barjatiya is the man in Bollywood for you. While Bollywood is drifting towards depicting more casual relationships in movies, Barjatiya’s films single-handedly balance out by preserving joint families and all the sanskars that come along with them in the package deal. The guy is responsible for employing more than half of Bollywood in the single movie that he brings out once in several years and we remain in their sanskari hangover for years at stretch. If you are not acquainted with Sooraj Barjatiya’s class of filmmaking, here's what all you would definitely find in his movies!
Joint Family – Sooraj Barjaitya doesn’t believe in a film till it is brim full of characters like one babuji, at least two other sanskari sibling, their families and lots of uncles and aunts. They always live in a large house and have a sanskari family business and there is a lot of family time.
Family Trips – You will always see the big melodramatic family having a lot of sanskari fun and that also entails that each of his movies has a mandatory family picnic or outing. You might not be able to tell apart sometimes but it might also include the honeymoon of the lead pair in the movie.
A Marriage – There is no movie of his complete without showing an over the top, big fat Indian wedding! There just has to be one, be it at the start, in between or at the end of the movie. Well, so many people getting together have to get someone married right?
A Guy Called Prem – We would never know but Sooraj Barjatiya might secretly have inked Prem on some part of his body. While he is mostly obsessed with having Salman Khan playing Prem in his movies, even if he is not there, the lead actor is always called Prem. He might as well get a copyright on that name!!
An actress who is shy beyond compare – She might be confident, talented, doing well for herself but when it comes to romance, she is always so shy that she might as well make us feel embarrassed for watching!
Half of the movie industry – We presume that Sooraj Barjatiya likes seeing every corner of the frame crammed with people! While the major characters in his films are enough to make our head spin, there will always be more in terms of junior artists and hundreds of background dancers in songs.
Sanskar – And finally the binding factor or the backbone of his films, Sanskar! This is where Alok Nath got his sanskari streak from and this is where the entire Bollywood gets it from. Sanskari picnics, Sanskari romance, sanskari characters, and sanskari everything!! If a moral science class could be made into a movie, we bet it would be Sooraj Barjatiya directing it!
Watch his movies and you will never miss having your family around you! Well almost never!!
