“Ek Ladki” Is the First Bollywood Lesbian RomCom — but the Lesbians Fall Flat

Why did this movie tank so hard that it was almost immediately out of theaters in America? Why did this not get the coverage or accolades it deserved for being the first mainstream Bollywood movie about a lesbian relationship?
 
Well, long story short, the movie is bad.

Observations on Heaven from Dante’s Paradiso That Also Apply to These Stills of Linda Hamilton

“Hustlers” Stole My Heart While Robbing Rich White Men

Top 10 Gayest Fashion Moments From 1999’s Runaway Bride, Ranked by Importance

“It’s 1999. You’re Julia Roberts. Your hair is indisputably glorious. You should absolutely put on a cowboy hat. What will you wear with it? No, incorrect. It’s a very busy top from the Gilmore Girls Strong Print collection, pegged jeans and sensible shoes.”
