The Shekhar and Amit Bromance: A love and promise in the most heterosexual way-Miriam Gaistman
We have come to learn that Silsila was a very controversial film because of the perceived extra marital affair; even more so it was rumored that actors Amitabh Bachchan and Rekha were involved in a real affair making the movie more appealing . I believe more so the controversy was accompanied a little by the extreme closeness of Amit and Shekhar, which by many could be perceived as a homosexual relationship; however, in modern day America this would be called a bromance.
This is a song called Bromance by Nigahiga. I believe that this pinpoints exactly the relationship that Amit and Shekhar have throughout the movie. Like the song says there is nothing gay about their closeness and they love each other in the most heterosexual way. They love each other so much that when Shekhar dies Amit feels the responsibility to be a partner for Shobha and a father like figure for the child he left behind. I believe the chorus of this song is exactly what happened in the movie and they were there for each other in the good and bad times that life presented them; they were their wingmen as well as a support for the family when tragedy hit.
s likeEminemand Dr. Dre
If I loved you more I might be gay
And when I’m feeling down
You know just what to say
You my homie, Yeah you know me
And if you ever need a wingman
I’d let any girl blow me off
Cus you’re more important than the rest
I confess, I’m a mess
If I’m not hanging with my BFF
You know its true, you my male boo,
Now sing the chorus with me if you’re feeling the same
way too.
Chorus
Bromance, nothing really gay about it
Not, that there’s anything wrong with being gay
Bromance, SHouldn’t be ashamed or hide it
I love you in the most heterosexual way.
Verse 2
Hold me
To a promise that I”ll be the kind of the friend that
in the end
Will always keep you company
Because when the world gets tough
And times get hard
I will always love you, I’ll be your bodyguard
[From: http://www.elyrics.net]
Cus you’re my bestie, and if you test me
I’ll prove it time and time again, I got your back
until the end
A brotha from anotha motha never knew how much I loved
ya
Till i started singing this song… huh?
Chorus
Bromance, nothing really gay about it
Not, that there’s anything wrong with being gay
Bromance, SHouldn’t be ashamed or hide it
I love you in the most heterosexual way.
Bridge
Now that I told you how I feel
Hope you feel the same way too
BUT if you dont, this song was just a joke
BUT if you do, I LOVE YOU
