“Cape Fear” meets an old AB film “Parwana”. DARR has nothing authentic to offer on its own Merit. SRK hams as usual, fascinating songs, decent storytelling by Yash Chopra. Please pass on this one, also a hard pass on SRK’s “DON” attempts. AB is the OG and his vintage films shouldn’t even be touched.

It was a line that transcended the film. It's part of Indian pop culture now. A senior friend of mine (she's way older than me) called Jenny did not like Forrest Gump for a while, cuz people shouted "Jenny!" to her back in the day.
Shivangi
I don’t think Darr is a great option for a watch along with Steph. If she loves SRK then maybe do Rab ne Bana di Jodi, much more fun watch
Kiru
haha!! geez that takes me back to my school days when this film first came out. Got teased mercilessly at that time and lasted a few years! guess the effect of films in those days stayed for a long time.
Vrithika
That was my exact thought.
Vrithika
Does Steph enjoy thriller/creepy/slightly scary films? Darr is a good film for its time & SRK’s acting is excellent but he’s really creepy and I guess it just depends if she will enjoy that. Otherwise I know both of you will enjoy Kal Ho Na Ho which y’all should do a watch a long for but ofc no pressure :)
Nathan Boyd
Yes please. Go for it! I love SRK but haven’t seen this movie yet. Would be great to watch along with you and Steph. Also, if you can get Rick to subscribe your Patreon channel and that way he can write his paragraphs and thoughts without being trolled.

I can't watch Baazigar. Deewana has dated storyline and is even unintentionally hilarious in some moments. But I like Darr, for many reasons (excluding climax). All films seen for the first time in last two years:-)
Yuvraj Haldankar
But that's the way cinema was at the time in India. Just because the shark in Jaws looks (very) fake by today's standards, does that mean we shouldn't watch Jaws?
Reva
I wrote this out of genuine concern.. :D wasnt trying to be funny 😬
Manasa Pandalaneni
I would say no, it is an old movie and is very cringey for this time.
ksjwrvth
I would say yes mainly for SRKs acting and for him going against the grain in bollywood for taking on a "negative" role. It'd be great to see you guys react to his evolution in acting and roles.
HS
You won't like it, so don't please. It's a movie of the early 90s and you have to have watched it then to like it.
Yuvraj Haldankar
That should be fun Kkkkkiran. Such a coincidence that I see a comment from a Kiran in a post related to Darr.
Satwik Mishra
please don't
Yuvraj Haldankar
Yes please. Whatever your end result may be, I'd love it. Plus, SRK fans are much more logical and kinder than the Bhai fandom. Not as toxic in any shape or form
Prince Pradeep (Stupidbaby Prince)
Nooooooooooo
Just Jami
Go for it. If nothing else at least you'll have a peak through of the beginning of SRKs journey in the industry and an insight of his evolution.
Rineesh Parai
This happened when I watched Deewana recently. I had a lot of nostalgia about that movie, it turned into nausea 🤢
Ajax
I don’t think you’ll like Darr I thought the movie was ok
Kalyani
Its an outdated movie. But songs are good. Movie will get on your nerves. Not great for a watch along. Not sure if you will.be able to sit through the whole thing.
Sudha Subramanian
If Stephanie likes SRK, I would suggest Om Shanti Om watch along :)
Shekhar
Pls dont..its outdated

Rick isn’t on the channel for a while you missed my post obviously
samy
Go for it. Srk as villain is terrifying
Nikhita Kale
Do it with steph but also with rick
Farzana Mahbub
Imagine SRK in Devdas and add his laughter from DDLJ x200. That's Darr for you.
Aleksandra
If Stephanie had watched more SRK's films and is ok with some dated elements, it's a good idea. Darr is an interesting film for SRK's evolution. I'm not sure if it's a good watch along. I would expect something lighter, more entertaning and more flawless.
Kiru
have not watched Darr in over 15 years so will be fun to relive it along with Stephanie and you. Good or bad, its what it is
Shilpa Choksi
Yes pls
Sadan Rasaily
Yes but without Rick it might be a bit of a miss.
Anju D. Ramgoolam
Yes go ahead. Watch it !!
SB
Golden comment 😂😂😂😂 NEEDS TO BE STARRED.

😂😂😂
Manish Chiranjiv
Include Rick also(on mute 😂😂) but yes watch it ....Early SRK was different
Reva
Poor Stephanie! I hope she doesnt take a sabbatical too after watching Darr 😔
Farah Ansari
The movie hasn’t aged well but I believe Shahrukh’s acting in it is one of his best. It’s before he became king of romance so he had more liberty to act. Definitely watch it with Steph. Hope you both enjoy his acting.
ND
No but when I watched it recently I thought it was absolute cringe. And I thought the acting was pure overacting lol let’s see what you think of it
Patricia Merry
A woman's take on the movie would be very interesting.
Aparna Navalgund
Point taken ☹️
OUR STUPID REACTIONS
It’s the Patreon pick . Lol
Aparna Navalgund
Noooooo please anything but dar. It’s seriously the worst. I absolutely adore Srk but the movie is bad.
OUR STUPID REACTIONS
Most old films lol
ND
I’m sorry but the movie hasnt aged well at all. And it’s extremely problematic. So good luck to you
Pravan Swarnkar
Yessss
Rukmini Majumdar
Yes!
Salil Khetani
One of the better SRK movies.
Vamsi Vanteru
Not sad melodrama, its angry melodrama 😂
OUR STUPID REACTIONS
This isn’t a either or we will do other watch a longs and yes when we get to Om shanti Om I promise we will do a watch along just asking if people would like it for DARR Steph loves srk
Aarthi
Yayyy!!!
SB
Wake up Sid is such a simple and easy going movie, yet so pleasant. Nothing extra ordinary, but still makes you smile all the time.
SB
😆😆 imagine the melodrama in it lol
Naveen
I would prefer om shanti om..but that would be more fun with Rick…Due to nature of the movie
Mallika Anand
Yes please! And I hope Rick can watch it too at some point ❤️
jayesh poojary
+1
Naveen
Oh well, its an important movie in terms of understanding where srk started…BUT I highly doubt it will stand the test of time and its quite problematic in its gaze as well…so…for first watchalong I would prefer a better over all movie…Like wake up sid or something…pleasant and good.
Pezi Ka
Yess!
Vamsi Vanteru
Sure go for it. Dont expect top notch acting tho 😀
Avanti Sengupta
Would love that
Argha Sen
Sure, why not!
Vivek Nair
Sure!
Ankan CKV
Om Shanti Om... Please
Rineesh Parai
Do it!
vivek sharma
