vayuu1 Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 This begs a question why don't we invest in our super heroes ,nagraj dhruv,doga,chacha chaudhary and sabu, even shaktiman these six are unarguably most popular indian comics characters except say shaktiman,no Indian kids has grown up without reading nagraj dhruv and chacha chaudharySent from my Redmi 4A using Tapatalk New guy and zen 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarke Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 Going by the title, I thought its about a lollywood film. Turns out its a Pakistani origin girl in MCU film lead role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they tried something similar with a chinese origin actor but it backfired, she criticized hong kong so it angered the PC crowd but movie also got banned in China anywau Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kumail Nanjijiani is a famous comedy actor. He has played role of Indian guys in Silicon valley & some movie with Anupam Kher. His work is impressive. Kunal Nayyar may have been better but dude has already made fun of Indian culture in BBT. Other West based Indian actors are dead serious types mostly. So fair play to Marvel I think. Kumail is fun to watch. Vijy and New guy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The creators didnt even do basic research and built fantasy stories based on stereotypes. Not a single thing Raj tells about indians is true Its thoroughly lazy, even 5 mins research would hsve made it better while retaining the comedy They also discriminated against the actor, he was paid less than the others till the last 2 seasons, was threatened to be fired when he asked for more, was only character which had no decent role and left without a romantic interest at the end However kunal nayyar earned ~$100m (745 crore rupees ) for the role in total so doubt he is complaining or would have earned more from any marvel movie Edited November 16, 2021 by New guy Lone Wolf 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they have tried to show Sheldon knows more about Indian culture & Hinduism than Raj himself. It is very offensive sometimes to listen to Raj. His storyline is f**** most badly & his character development till the end was screwed. Most poorly written character in the show. He made a lotta money though in my view. Most expensive Indian origin actor by some miles in Hollywood still. People will find Kumail more Indian than Kunal himself looking at both of them.

Vijy Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 I've read some of the comics before. some are good, most are mediocre/bad. it's mostly because they had no real insight even into generic desi (let alone, say, pakistani or indian) characters. hence, the result was rather superficial Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
