My mom is a financial, secure independent woman who was able to raise two kids alone but is still scared to leave her abusive husband.

‘Dil Dhadakne Do’ taught us that Patriarchy is not just men looking down on women, but about men who try to challenge the status quo and women who enable a flawed system.

Dil dhadakne do is such an underrated movie I cannot even begin..... people think it's boring and long but the message it gives is not talked about! The hypocratic and double faced people shown here, hits directly on the heart. my extended relatives are actually like this and I feel these emotions that are shown in the movie. It shows the strength,problems,issues of a family and also the sad truth of most marriages...... hope it gets the fame it deserves🤞

Neelam Mehra saying “Acting kyun kar rahe ho? Koi nahi dekh raha.” was actually quite hilarious actually.

Anyone Expected this film to come by❤️❤️ The bro-sis relationship in this film too is the most authentic neither melodramatic or too much rivalry unlike most films

The movies also showed us that being rich and wealthy won't be the solutions to the problems.

The common stereotype is that a baby can solve every issue in the marriage...... Reality - no, a child cannot solve the issues in marriage because if two people r not compatible with each other then wt a child can do in this? The child will also develop a negative mindset toward marriage and relationships because of his/her parent's toxic marriage so in short a toxic marriage will destroy the mindset of a new life also...

I love Zoya Akhtar's filmography with a passion that scares even me and DDD is my favourite project of the lot. Funny, heartfelt and just brilliantly directed/acted, it's a constant rewatch gem for me. Yeah, I truly hope that if I ever got married, we don't end up like some of the couples in the movie, but damn is it fun to watch the drama unfold. Excellent content as usual, Swaddle Team.

First and foremost, never let marriage and children be a "society imposed" thing . They have to be 1- a choice 2- well planned 3- honestly committed

5:19 :"Something which should be a well thought out choice, rather than a social imposition". Wish more people get this.

It really is a good movie something i watch when I'm feeling low for all the patriarchal stuff i find comfort in this movie It tells it's ok to fall in love It's ok to get a divorce if your unhappy It's ok talk out our problems It's not ok to bring a child into a marriage to make the marriage work It's not ok to 'allow' women to work It's not ok to only consider a son as a heir They might actually have different ambitions too It's not their duty to run to his father's company just cuz he is a man It's not ok to do things we don't want to do because of social pressure As said in the movie ppl will talk no matter what you do the talking will never stop

This is such an underappreciated movie.

Both Farhan and Zoya are wonderful directors and writers. People troll them for having rich characters but anyone can relate to the problems faced by them.

Well there are too many examples around me of these kind of marriages ..where women have no choice but to tolerate ..and it is easy to say why not just break such marriages but it's harder ...way harder than we think .. people will kill that women blaming her for ruining her family and making their kids lives miserable .. obviously kids suffer in these kind of marriages but when those kids grow -up watching all this ..they are already ruined .. it's a viscous cycle ...my Massi is in such a bad place in her marriage now but she can't divorce her husband .. Even though she is financially independent .. even her own parents won't support her ..they always ask her to stay quiet for her kids and family .but I see their kids are suffering as much as she is ...she is the one who provides for her family ..her husband is always spending without thinking .. Even if he has to take loans to maintain his life style ...well he just bought a new car and guess who is going to pay for car loan ?? ...she is the one paying those loans always...when I see her suffering and pretending in front of this world to be happy ... it's gonna be harder for me to believe in marriage in future too ..I have him abusing her verbally ..I know he beats her too but she is still trying to save this so called marriage ...🙄 I used to ask my parents why she is so weak ?? Why can't she just leave him ..now I am all grown up and I can see it's almost impossible for her to come out of this hell ....

Omg swaddle....you guys have been doing such fantastic work..... especially this recasting series.....dil dhakane do is so freaking underrated

My Mom is a financial independent women but not so as my moms whole salary is taken by my father in her service of 10 years she had not taken her salary in these years

i could not agree more with your last sentence that marriage should not be a social imposition but a well thought decision on both part.

Beautifully written content. This was a much needed example to be brought to life! Thanks Swaddle, once again.

Marriage is the spiritual matter but society (people) molded it according to its needs...

I feel so bad seeing in the comments section how so many children are affected by abusive fathers. I know it can be hard. But please understand that there is always hope. It might be difficult to leave an abusive marriage but trust me no women deserves to suffer such. Please reach out to your local attorneys and seek legal help. File for alimonies. If law used properly it can really help. We do not know much laws or is backed by fear why is why continue to suffer from abuse. Love and light to everyone.

your communication skill, vocabulary , voice is really great .it made me to listen again and again.

Yes completely agree with you. Perfect marriage is a myth.

This movie is reality, I can relate, bad marriage is suffocating

I WAS WAITING FOR THIS OMG!!!

The problem with movies such as Dil dhadakne do and many more like this is the Indian audience don't have the taste to appreciate this kind of stuff. Let me type some points to add insight :- 1) TV audience. We think that since OTT became so popular in India that people nowadays don't watch TV the truth is that statistically since the introduction of OTT there has been a significant rise in TV watchers. There is majority of Indian audience that is just out of touch and still unfamiliar with Internet entertainment and culture. 2) Indian audience and their family dynamics. Movies that are played in theaters or so called Cinema is basically a more or less special ocassion in most middle class or lower class families. Okay let's be honest watching movies is expensive in cinemas and when people go for movies they also have to pay for food and stuff. Families in India don't really find time to spend watching movies and when they do, the Indian families wish to watch movies that are slapstick comedies in the name of entertainment. So basically a majority of our audience watches movies with families and they prefer (especially elders) to watch slapstick comedies or basically what we call as cringe. Yk family entertainment. 3) A majority Indian youth audience including myself and some of my friends we grew up watching only western entertainment. The classic American TVs and movies. We are the type to watch Zack and Cody over Karan and Kabir because we have subconsciously since childhood formed a comfortable bond with the western culture. For us what the Indian industry is creating now is something we have enjoyed and critized years ago so basically Indian industry lags behind our taste. Even when Indian industries do create something worth watching they add masala and those try hard jokes and trying to tell instead of showing yeah it makes us just downright bad for us. 4) A majority of our audience is not ready to talk about issues such as divorces, miscarriages, childless couple dynamics, toxic couple dynamics, leaving behind and choosing growth. An audience that appreciates Devdas do you expect them to watch movies where protagonist is leaving behind toxicity and moving on? 5). Actresses like Kiara and Disha are a proof that actresses in Indian movie are nothing but eye candies because Radhe or Kabir Singh it is always about the hero or the male lead even if it is toxic because all females do is exists and be bimbos. Thanks to these mainstream celebs feminism is something they will never portray right in the movies for when they try to do something feministic they end up making shizz like Veere Do Wedding. 6) A less talked about Indian audience dynamic is tharki launde basically horny guys who watch movies to idolise a hero who drinks and smokes and beats goons and has an attitude with a screwed family antic. And the one who dances in Item songs with an eye lolli. 7) a new trend for people due to OTT is to only watch movies with tons of negative elements like sex, drugs, alcohol and crimes. Lots of this. Like yeah normalise all these because they happen but why do every Ott platform has to churn out these themes. And youngsters watchs these because that is what happens when you are raised in conservative society they think to normalise these themes is to only watch these themes and talk about them. Wow toxic media and equally toxic audience . Basically Progressive Content being adapted according to a regressive audience. Lmao not gonna work. A movie is a good way to portray something but to accept an issue and talk about it, you actually have to talk about it. I have no hopes for the Indian audience

Thank you for this video!

Everyone should get divorced without any exception and get a life..... Freedom is all what a human needs!

Guys .. really u are doing good work about ur content. One kind request guys... Make the all videos in English. All over India must watch ur videos guys... I need that.

Excel Entertainment is killing it with the satire on family and marriage.

This was such an awesome video! It made my Sunday 👏🏽

All movies always show marriages as the happy ending to a great love story. But no one talks about uske baad kya. Marriages are a new beginning, even love marriages. Love marriages only make the work half done by bringing the legacy of trust and friendship. Marriages require commitment, hard work and patience but are totally worth it for the companionship, love and support they bring

Initially, I used to think that gender biasing only happens in poor or middle-class families but this movie changed my mind.

I will only marry when it is a well thought out choice

My new fav channel.

Such a fun film to watch (and re-watch and analyse)!

Loved this movie

+ that "permission" waala dialogue

Hey Swaddle, please make breaking the LGBTQ stereotype ft. Badhaai do or Shubh Mangal Zyada Savdhan 😇😇

In this whole movie just one thing bugged me that how could someone forgive their cheating partners. I mean cheating and extra martial affairs is something which doesn't deserve any forgiveness. Wheather it's men or women once you broke the trust there is no go back but still at the end Neelam forgive Kamal and he too act like he didn't cheat his wife for 30 yrs. How pathetic our society is. Just swap the roles and imagine the situation. Wht if it's the women who cheated on her husband for 30 yrs. Will she be forgivable . Will she get 2nd chance. Then why men always get away with this shit. It always bug me like it's OK to broke our trust and play with it. Even this movie was conveying an great message and talking about the social norms but the end shouldn't be like this. Like Neelam again accepted her husband with open arms like he didn't do anything. She forgive him just like that. This is absurd for me that how he easily he gets away with it. when Priyanka have to fight a war with her own parents for getting divorce from an unhappy marriege but Anil Kapoor get away with his deeds just like that.

The movie is a gem

beautiful movie ❤️🔥

My mother said this many times, "you did more bad deeds in your previous life if you are reborn as a woman." No matter how I thought about it, she seemed right. I considered many things but there was nothing that could contradict this statement. Rape cases, patriarchy, honour killing, forced marriages, death while giving birth, unequal property inheritance or no inheritance at all, lack of education because parents spend money on sons, domestic violence, leaving one's home after marriage, fathers abandoning or killing their daughters because they want a son, murders for dowry, misogyny, women being labelled as dumb, working women taking care of the house alone, unfair beauty standards to be eligible for marriage when one cannot change one's skin colour, harsh environments after marriage, victim blaming, acid attacks, less freedom compared to men, leaving one's job after marriage and the list goes on.

No words to say❤❤

One of the favourite movies ❤❤

Kindly show in English subtitles please

COMFORT MOVIE FOR LIFE

That's truth...

I love your videos Tabu ki movie h naam yaad nahi aa rha h

Took my aai to pvr to watch this movie.......nothing changed......

Having a baby, doesn't solve anything..,., Women gets more bsy,,, and stuck forever. With that men, because it's more painful living alone with kid. . Then just living alone

My mother decided to have an affair because his husband an asshole.. I am fine with that till she left me in that shitty mess.. she fronted me to that abuse.

Please make a recasting video on Queen

Hey Swaddle, how do u ensure u don't get copyright claims when u edit these videos??

Why swaddle shows only about movies only

It actually wasn't like that, in earlier films many married couples struggles were pictured. Still are but less.

The only thing i don't understand what's the problem with her father protecting Aisha after he realises abuse when Manav is about to slap her, that's how it should happen, he did what father's are for, that is his job

👍🏻

Abusive Husbands are like bad habits....

I don't know what to think at the end It just fully messed up

But this is a POV from an elite upper caste and Class, is I believe one of the major criticisms of the film. Also a good example of Urban Feminism.

Shabana Azmi in Arth

Arranged.unarranged.no action.problem solved.autobiography or a story?

The family you are considering for generalising all indian family is inaccurate. How many of us has such lifestyles? And by characters concluding women are getting suffered is senseless.

WTF !!!

Your english so hard to undrestand please use easy words to undrestand I can undrestand a liltel if a person totally dosnt know english how could he or she undrestand what have you said?

Swaddle here is also justifying cheating and spouse cruelty by Priyanka Chopra's character Aa gaye feminists apni aukat pe Adultery is also right according to their woke logic

This movie is baseless and senseless Divorce because I don't love him Wth, why didn't you say that before Well madam, you can't get a Divorce in India just because you don't love your partner Swaddle high on something as usual
