[1]Till Imran Khan sang Bhaag DK Bose, nobody thought that the slang could surface in a song, as somebody’s name. And by the time actress Chitrangada Singh, who grooved to an item song in Shirish Kunder’s Joker, revealed that the filmmakers changed the lyrics of the song, I want fakht you to I want just you to avoid any unwanted reactions, everybody knew what the composer initially tried to suggest.
Now actor Vivek Oberoi is telling Mallika Sherawat Don’t fuff my mind in his latest movie Kismat Love Paisa Dilli.
While lyricists claim that these words and phrases merely mirror the lingo used by youngsters, some feel that creative heads in Bollywood are creating such words and giving new ideas to people.
Pratibha Sharma, a student at NIIT, finds them shocking. “I learn many suggestive words through movies. Bollywood puts ideas in our minds,” he says. On the contrary, Nikita Goenka, a DU student, feels that most of these words are nothing new for youngsters. “There are a lot of cuss words that we are aware of and use in our daily life. Bollywood isn’t inventing such words. Soon we will make a new dictionary of more suggestive words,” says Nikita.
Songs from Kya Super Cool Hai Hum – Dil garden garden ho gaya and Tune aise kari tabahi, ye jo tha mera sipahi firse attention ho gaya, and I am a hunter and she wants to see my gun... from Gangs Of Wasseypur are not outrageous to some people, but are just hummable versions of what everybody knew. Tusshar Gupta, an MA student, doesn’t find them strange. “Films are just spreading the words which already exist. Rather, they are giving the words a more creative version,” says Tusshar.
