Swades failed because people want him as a romantic hero... Now his films are failing because people want him to be not romantic.... Irony , isn't it!!
@@user-wg8gh3be8f ohk but why did fan failed??? Srk and the concept was good in it...even zero was a different film but yes the second half was glitchy
Swades wasn’t failed, Indian audiences failed. Swades is definitely one of greatest ever Bollywood movie. Acting, direction, music, dialogues, execution all deserves 10 out of 10.❤️
Failed ka matlab yahi hua na chutiye ki tickets nahi biki? Toh wahi hua tha Movie ke saath. Although cult classic hai ab and it's fab. Accept how things are and don't mould things around with words. Bitch.
@@shubhambrach1353 Chakde India first week was disaster. The reason why it got hit was bcoz the reviews were really positive. And also srk was at his peak at that time and that's the reason why despite being released on just 400 screens it emerged out as a hit on box office.
The train scene, when Mohan is coming back from that poor farmer's house, is one of the bests you'll see in hindi film history. Apart from being well written, it is well shot and greatly performed also. I'm a SRK fan only for that one scene!
Suhas Salokhe that part is universal even though am from Africa I watch that scene everytime and it hits me so hard knowing how backward we are in Africa when it comes to education even though things are much better. Now but still that scene itself makes u cry out loud
it portrayed a rural distress which has shown no one in mainstream hindi cinema...and the song was so beautifully composed by...... a r rahman...which made movie very special...
Watch this video on same topic which is created much before this video "Why Classics Failed Swades" by Yatharth Chauhan & I bet you will get goosebumps while going through that video itself. I recommend you this vdo as mandatory, this Jammypants vdo ia nothing infront of that vdo. Also I beleive that Jammypants had taken some inputs from that vdo while making this vdo.
Honestly SRK has always been ahead of time. He did a sports movie (Chak de India) and a superhero movie (Ra.One) before anyone thought of making one. He's such an experimental actor! Forever favourite! He is where he is because of the risks that he has taken.
@@logicalfacts6585 oh right. I totally missed that. I'm 87 born but I guess I missed that one out. But yes, he hasn't done such genre in post 2000 era.
Her character was wayyyyyyyyyyy ahead of time! In that era, people loved watching movies where the girl's getting married against her father's wishes and blah blah blah. They just couldn't accept a character like Gita.
Swades was released around 2003 -2004 and today after 15 years ppl are still loving to talk about it...sharukh khan is a living legend ppl will not understand his effort for fan zero today...but after some years gone by the legend will be celebrated for the effort ...srk is and will always be a legend.
I still feel sad for movies like swades, My name is khan, kabhi haan kabhi naa, Dil se, Fan n some for zero too........these were a classics cults could have been a game changer for bollywood..... if audience has understood these movie concepts no doubt srk is legend n no doubt that no one can ever match he's level of versatility if these movies had recieved well then bollywood have much better in present era
Ammar Munir Brother it wasn’t that successful....if MNIK had properly received by audience Till today it could have been unbeatable on Box office n deep down we all know MNIK deserves an Oscar i know many gonna Disagree coz its srk movie.....👍🏻
I think of a strange reason..people were just not touched by the trailer or the hype was not enough..no way people hated this movie..simply they didn't go to see it..In 2004 Srk owned that year totally as the highest grosser was Veer Zaara and the second was Main hoon na..Salman-Akshay mujhse shaadi karoogi 3rd so Srk star power was unbelievable..maybe if it failed these days it'd be logical but no way that year..I am still baffled !!
No man it was a different thing. Newton failed due to ideological clash. You can't compare Swades to Newton. A social justice movie and an ideological masterpiece.
Believe me or not, SRK is very very good in making People cry by showing his tears and dialogues.. Best example are KABHI HAAN KABHI NA, K3G, KHNH, Devdas, SWADESH, RNBDJ, KKHH, CHAAHAT, HEYRAM , MNIK and the list goes on and on...
Probably there wont be any other Swades ever .... “The child giving water to mohan bhargav on the railway station” is probably the best scene I have ever seen on the silver screen ...there are no dialogues uttered during this full 10 mins sequence yet that silence speaks so much ... There can only be one swades and there can only b one srk ... this is the patriotism which our country needs .... this is my real india🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳 Thank u so much jammy for making us revisit this masterpiece...u revitalized our love for the country ❣
This film is incomplete without Maestro AR Rahman's awesome music.. 😍 I still listen to this album on a daily basis and it still sounds so fresh.. ARR ❤️
The theme of Swades which plays while he comes to India,still gives me goosebumps every single time. Some music pieces are good, some are exceptional but only some haunt you for ages.
Tiger Man He's a talentless fuck who overstayed his welcome largely due to media hype. Now people are more intelligent and detected his con. Hence nobody watches his movies now.
Actually movies during that time mainly focused on romance and couldn't think beyond it. But there has been a change now. Maybe if swades was released now it would have been appreciated by everyone.
@@Miracle- tumbadd was loved by many including me but maybe the majority did not like it...another reason why simbba earned more than tumbadd is the cast
@@sharanyaray2454 thats my point right we r seeing the cast instead of the content thats were we fail as audience too , tho i agree the point simba had better marketing
swades was a flop ?? my parents love rewatching it (so do i) so i always thought it was a hit ! (the songs yeh tara and yoohin chala chal rahi are so so beautiful)
A great eye opener for all those SRK haters who think SRK is only successful because of the 'KHAN' tag after his name . His work in this movie is just so genuine and pure ,hope people realise that #srkian👅
"We have a fairly backward, sophisticated audience in this country." - Satyajit Ray The golden words said by a pioneer who foresaw the future of Indian Cinema. The audience at that time was not matured or ready to accept a film like Swades.
I was just a kid when this was released but after watching it as a grown up it just made me realise the importance of one's motherland, no matter how successful, how rich anyone is but the feeling of going back to the place where one is born and doing something for the people is just like achieving a lot. "Yeh jo des hai tera" is absolutely a gem to listen and to inspire from.
Shahrukh is just a iconic,. No one can beat his acting. U wil literally 😢 cry if you see k3g, and Kal ho na ho.. Those who didn't see this pls watch. Every time I watch those movies I cry..
Kalyani Shrotri There was nothing either good or great about his performance. All he did was underplay himself and tone down his star persona and mannerisms. Swades deserves credit only and only for its superlative script and deft direction. Same goes for Chak De India.
Yes people keep nagging and whining about him doing more like Swades but when he actually does they don't go to theatres and the filmmakers lose money. People need to remember that at the end of the day this is his work and he needs money to flow in order to make such movies. It's such a shame to have an actor like him so underutilized because people want him to do a Veer Zara every year while not aging or changing a bit. Even though Raees was a moderate success it should've been a hit because he displayed an unrivaled passion in acting that role, there isn't one instance when I didn't believe his character as Raees, which was very intensely performed. This I believed is a quite an accomplishment because although he played intense roles or antiheroes they still featured a boyish charm, while Raees was just intimidating and charismatic as hell, something that the audience has never seen from SRK.
You cannot compare a monkey & an elephant by their skills in climbing a tree. Movies like Swades has to be measured by different metrics. Its not meant to be consumed as a crowd in a theatre. I just hope that attention is paid in writing the subtitle and ensure that its well translated in English so that the audience can better understand the dialogues. That being said, I have to sincerely praise you for your wonderful channel. Please don't compare yourself with any other channel as your work is unique. Keep up the good job.
Swades is the finest Indian movie ever made! It’s truly an absolute Gem! The story , the direction, the message, the performance and the music, Beyond perfection!
2004 was the best year for shahrukh. Role in Swadesh is one of the finest and top 2 grossers of that year were veer zaara and main hoon na. Cult, romantic and commercial films in a year by srk.
Swades's music are made timeless by all India radio aka Vivitbharti, the morning shenai, played every morning and various tracks played through means of instruments when ever a radio show or news ends had made music of this film really memorable in consciousness of us Indians
Needless to say that the whole movie is at another level and a very different place in heart and of course wisely titled “ahead of its time” but my favourite scene is when SRK is in tears when a kid giving a pot of water, no dialogue and only expression by SRK as well as brilliant music to express everything, pain of Mohan Bhargav...really touched
You revisiting this classic made my day. This movie was so special that every scene turned my class rooms into a journey into India. My social studies classes have gained momentum with this gem. Thank you once again
Yaa lekin kuch chodu logo ko ye sensible movie pasand nhi aaati... Bass kutte ki tarah zabaan nikal ke simbha jaisi copied movies ko hit bnati hai chutiya audience
Being UNDERRATED is good sometimes. The movie of a popular celebrity which is his best is only known to you is an awesome feeling when others love him because of his glamorous movies which made huge box office collections.
SRK is just so brilliant n talented actor. Whether its Chak de ,Swades,My name is khan,Fan watch him as an actor My Goodness,only sheer brilliance❤ He can do any kind of character. I m wishing n hoping he get success again. He is too good not to get appreciated. Hope he get best script,best film,best response soon✌
Man you have brought up an excellent movie left out in dust, I am 22 years old still moved by this movie from early 2000 . Thankyou for bringing this up.
Can you make a video on "FAN". I think it is one of the Greatest Bollywood movie. Perfect acting. New story. Straight out direction. FAN-STAR BOND. Good dialogues. Casting of support cast could be better but still a masterpiece type of film. And who can forget the VFx work. Please make a video on it. 🙏❤️😅
We don't deserve this type of movies. People in India are idiots. I also felt angry when parmanu got criticism for hypernationalism. We are so anti- nationalist
I m Not a big fan of srk..... But swadesh is one of my favorite film of him❤️❤️😘 Swadesh is one of the best film of Indian cinema😘.... I hope srk will very big comeback
A movie that truly moves you and should have been appreciated in every way. I still revisit the train scene where SRK witnesses the reality of the situation just to feel the rush of emotions again.
I appreciate how deeply you go through the minute things. It shows how hardworking you are. You are absolutely loyal towards your subscribers. Waiting for fresh weekly content ahead💕
What a movie !!! I remember being awe struck watching this in the movie theater and I was in tears. I was 20 years old then. Now I am an NRI myself. And I relate to this very closely, in a heartfelt way.
You can still edit the title of this video.. this film wasn't failed miserably.. this film is a gem.. a diamond.. Whose shine will never diminish .. no matter how many days, years go by....💎❤️
I cry every time I watch this movie. You never get bored even for a moment. Thanks for bringing up a video based on this all-time favorite movie of mine. :)
Oh yess!!! This is one of the best performances of srk❤️ Love these kinds of videos 👍🏻 However please do one on “waiting” with Kalki koechlin and Naseeruddin Shah. It’s one of the most underrated movies ever 🙏🏻
Swades was a masterpiece. I remember going to the theatre with my family and 2 other families to watch the movie. Surprisingly it was my dad's idea, he used to be a movie fanatic in his childhood but lost interest in them during the romantic hero phase, but something about swades pulled him towards it and he made us all go. I was young then and people would think that I only cared for the song yeh tara vo tara (which ofcrs I did and it was my jam) but that's not true, the movie was important and even as a young child I understood that. The movie moved me and I still remember it to this day. You are doing a great job with these videos. It makes me so happy that you're gathering attention towards these gems. Love it. ❤❤❤❤
I saw both Swades and Lagaan once their original DVDs came out. They are different beasts. While Lagaan is an exhilarating underdog drama, Swades, an initmate social drama, hits more closer to the heart. It is more personal, more internalized and calls for introspection. Comparisons are unfortunate because, to quote Javed Akhtar, "Sab yeh roop hain mehnat ke, Kuch karne ki chahat ke, Kisi ka kisi se koi bair nahin.... " Seedhi baat hain samjho yaara...
I saw this movie when I was a kid I don't remember much of it and I obviously wouldn't have understood it but I remember I liked it because I really liked shahrukh and just the movie's aesthetic in genral. I also remember always singing the song Yuhin chala chal rahi as well. If I being a kid could like it I feel the adults could have appretiated the film a lil more too.
Swades was definitely a movie that was way ahead of its time. The problems it addressed are relevant even today. More importantly SRK was not himself but Mohan Bhargava, that was felt in his performance. Issues such as casteism, misogyny, stereotypes and talented individual contributing towards development of foreign countries were excellently tackled in this movie. Swades truly is one gem of a movie made by Ashutosh Gowariker.
Hands down your best video till date. For me when Mohan touches Kaveri amma's feet and she says ' Mujhe kitni khushi ho rahi hai tujhe dekh kar, main bata nahi paa rahi hoon', makes me cry every fucking time.
I think this is the movie after which SRK has learned the importance of marketing but unfortunately he has used that skills for waste movies. But Swades was and Swades is truly masterpiece.
Bro Srk has consistently experimented Baazigar Darr Kabhi haan kabhi na Dil se Hey Ram Asoka Swades Chak De India My name is khan Fan Ra one Zero I mentioned Ra one and Zero in one frame is becoz they were not good films However barring Chak De India and My Name is Khan no other film was commercially successful Shah rukh khan is a true legend Trust me he will be back with a bang
