The year’s genius “is incredibly smart. However, intelligence isn’t always sufficient. The explanation for “Genius “has been so successful and successful at going viral is that it utilizes its own intellect to explore a universal fear of seeming foolish in public.
Everyone who views this film will immediately recognize their own foolishness and ignorance. It is intended to make you cringe when you recall a foolish thing you’ve said or done in the past. Most importantly, it appeals to everyone’s “Alia Moment.” Who hasn’t had one? Or multiple?
Of course, Alia Bhatt herself shines in the video as she participates in the running jokes and makes fun of herself. That might end up being the wisest thing she has ever done in her short life. Alia has successfully transformed her reputation from being the stupidest doll in Bollywood to a lively, spirited, competitive girl who can laugh at herself and win. Now it’s the turn of her adversaries and critics to appear completely foolish. Good work!
The film prompts viewers to reevaluate their views on general knowledge and intelligence. The two can and frequently do conflict with one another. There is a strong likelihood that Alia will win the Best Actress prize this year due to her undeniable cinematic skill. This kind of talent typically coexists with a high IQ. Come on, she admitted to having terrible general knowledge during her Koffee interview, and as a result, she was the target of some pretty vile jokes. The video’s subtext is striking. Consider this quote from Karan Johar: “Of course, Bollywood has attractive and witty heroines; they are called HEROES.” Meeoow! Nobody has ever said anything more accurate, and one wonders how many heroes ran for cover after that dig. Again, Karan adds a sneaky, self-revelation aside to the Black Hole notion when he murmurs, “Black Hole… someplace I have not explored recently.” Ooooops! Time for admission on YouTube, Karan?
These throwaway moves by one of Bollywood’s most successful producer-directors also display a commendable maturation overall. An inspired decision that has benefited everyone participating in the project is the ability to criticize oneself, indulge in self-parody, and make fun of the humorless geeks who tormented Alia for months. It is ultimately Alia Bhatt’s victory and atonement. The last manufactured joke, in particular, when Alia declares her desire to become “India’s First Woman Prime Minister” before being informed that India previously had one—Indira Gandhi Alia squints, appears perplexed, loses consciousness, and says, “Who? Who? Who?” What a brilliant move!
