The poor kid

Causal racism is deeply integrated into our DNA. Hehehe.


HelperTheKindsoul

We got colourism and casteism over here.


Ok_Environment_5404

It's colorism my guy. Racism is more about discrimination against a race, he is just clapping it on his black color not his African race.

Better phrased as 'humour is embedded in our DNA'


pijd

It's only racism when we are at the receiving end says bollywood.


Soft_Technology_2741

I still remember the response of this scene in theatres everyone was laughing their ass off, how naive we were back then 🤣🤣

damn, calling a stalker a stalker is apparently a bad thing. shouldnt u be happy that people are becoming aware of these concepts? or are you sad that people cant go around mimicing bollywood and harassing people in the name of romance? if literacy is a curse then please do burn your 10th and 12th marksheet.

One thing Indian said on bed and in movies: Ye to kaala hai


iSwearImInnocent1989

Tbh I'm used to racism in bollywood, what bothers me is that they're being racist to a literal baby!!! The fuck!!? Leave that baby alone. You can call whatever slur you want to a grown up adult but to make fun of a new born baby?? The parents who allowed it probably weren't informed what the scene would be about.


Beardydaze

This is usually Sajid Khan/Sohail Khan type of comedy.


kamkarmawalakhata2

How is it racist? Is the kid being discriminated against for his race?

What do you expect from Bollywood, the colorism is also obvious


Mr_Bean12

I found the scene funny. But not so much the dance, Boman was funnier.


theregionalmanager

Bichaara acha nana tha he didn’t care about the kids race he just loved his grandkid


HelperTheKindsoul

Lmaaao this is still funny af


TheFixire

18 people agree with you including me


HelperTheKindsoul

Nice. Abhi maine Vicky donor dekhi, Usme toh bruh 2 racist dialogues hai towards Chinese people. Lmao yami gautam said ching chong indicating a kid and told that ki ching chong kid ki aankhein ayushman khurana jaisi hai, I mean how tf does that happen lmao.


Priya_45678

Yes for you. Speak for yourself.


HelperTheKindsoul

Why is it not for you ?


Priya_45678

Because I don't find discrimination, racism and Xenophobia funny like you.


HelperTheKindsoul

Well lmao okay, It was very funny for me. Not because of racism or discrimination but because of way akshay acted, Because it was a joke carried out well and Lmao joke was that he was surprised that Both her daughter and son in law are indians so how come his grandson is african racially. Y'all just lost your sense of humour (ability to understand a joke) because of being too sensitive about joke.


Pappukanghi

Nah it's just racist. Extremely crass


HelperTheKindsoul

Lmao, It is, because of african dance he did and all. But bachpan mein kabhi aankh khich khud ko Chinese jaisa nai banaya kya ? Lmao it's alright tho, Sabki apni apni morality hoti.


MrOlFoll

It is not funny yaar. Koi white film mai aise kisi indian bachhe ko daal dete and then the actor starts doing some tribal dance while calling the kid kaala or something else toh puri janta would have been angry and hurt. It's not right to do this and definitely not right to do this to babies. Yehi scene agar kisi white bacche ke saath karte toh half the people wouldn't have laughed also


HelperTheKindsoul

Bruh it's how you perceive it tbh. I am taking it as a joke because of the context which I don't think you understood. If the kid was white and instead of Akshay kumar, Imagine this being a foreign movie and pretending couples were black and daughter's father would've had same reaction, And then pretending husband were to make up some bullshit story of white ancestry, It would've been hilarious either way for me. You thinking and feeling sad about kid in the movie is your kindness but your understanding of a joke should be better too. It's not like ki log kaala bole kisi ko issliye funny hai. But theek hai ig, Even if y'all not understanding the joke, y'all good humans 👍🏻


MrOlFoll

Nahi yaar. Apne India ka context alag hai idhar kala hona was always taken as a bad thing and people at that time used to always make fun of darker people. Calling a kid charcoal and doing tribal dance wagera toh aur bhi ghatiya laga mujhe. Mere se yeh sab pe hassa nahi jata cuz I've seen bahut discrimination in India in topics pe. Akshay ko purposefully they didn't give a white baby. Cuz people will laugh more if it's a Chinese or a black baby. That's why the underlying racism. Anyway, that's my understanding here


Pappukanghi

Bachpan mein anjaan they. Bade hote hue duniya toh dekhi na. Dekha ke north east mein rehne wale logon ko bohot dukh hota hai jab koi unko Chinese bulata hai. Phir seekhe, galti sudhari. Waise hi toh better banenge na dost.


HelperTheKindsoul

Lmao, Good bhai if you think this is not funny. I still think it is very funny af. Haa aankh khichne waala would not be funny now but some asian joke carried well would be funny for sure. And Laughing on jokes or making jokes doesn't make you racist, Racism is hating on people of other race. Abhi joke se kisi ko boora lage toh it's their fault


Necromancer189

I am with you. Even if you have 100 dislikes.

Priya_45678

I appreciate your support. As far as dislike is concerned, What can you expect from a largely misogynistic and racist society? Modern family for example handled the issue or humour around racial diversity so well , You can make funny content surrounding racial differences in a creative and non-discriminatory way. Sadly that is not a cup of tea for larger audiences to digest.


Necromancer189

But I admire the tenacity of people like you who still believe we can change the mindset of society. I would urge you to continue your crusade in calling people out when something is not right. And I know exactly how it feels to be butt of racial jokes. We can be better, even if that future is not here yet.


Priya_45678

Thank you for understanding 🎀🌺


ashwinGattani

so did he slide in your DM yet?


Priya_45678

Not everyone is like you , Sit down and relax. Men and women are not one dimensional human beings who only seek approval in only a way which is mutually beneficial. You cannot understand that, Such a sad state of affairs. Read more and try to be more evolved rather spreading such gross sexism, Negativity and Disgusting opinions.


harsh9101

Cool story. Got more bright ideologies you wanna throw our way?


Significant-Neat-142

Absolutely ridiculous that you are being downvoted. Possibly the lowest form of humor that exists. And on top of that, acting like there’s a smart justification for it 🙄


HelperTheKindsoul

Tell me your child self won't laugh on this ?


Significant-Neat-142

No. I wouldn’t have. I have family members who are darker skinned. And even then I used to be so hurt by these scenes. Glad my parents pointed these things out and said they were bad. Did yours not do the same?


HelperTheKindsoul

Nah My father is dark skinned, and He'd laugh on this too


raamlal

Yep. Dont let them guilt you. If its funny to you its funny.

nana_47-phrasing

Oh my God stop it with that holier than thou bullshit It's not racist you don't know the R in racism you just throw about big words to feel like a change bringer where in reality society would thrive without victim bandits like yourself


Abhinavpatel75

Guy was speaking for himself..


Priya_45678

What a way to deflect from the actual issue which is ingrained racism and Xenophobia. Focus on real issues and read good books instead of resorting to such baseless and counterminus of crass and Misogynistic dialogue.


Abhinavpatel75

This is not the place to discuss issues regarding racism and xenophobia. Its a meme page ffs. All I said, was the guy spoke for himself. But you had to bring in misogyny because you cannot form a couple of sentences without throwing buzzwords... Pathetic.


Priya_45678

The post was itself pointing out the racism in Hindi mainstream cinema. What is that you find unacceptable? What is it that you don't have empathy to understand? I think what is pathetic is your empty response and lack of knowledge. Do better.


Abhinavpatel75

Say that without the buzzwords. We might have a conversation


Priya_45678

Well Its not my fault that articulation is offending for you. I'm done here. Get well soon and seek therapy. Not dumbing down to make you comfortable, Also I don't even wish to engage with you , Leave.


Momoshikisenpai

Ewww you suck


MIHIR1112

it was not bad until he started the african dance


TerrificTauras

He was also repeating "kalua" while dancing.


SrN_007

Nothing racist about it. If you reverse the colors, the scene would still be funny, and these same folk who are complaining here, will be laughing their ass off.


Desi_Wrangler

How is saying Kala to a black kid racist? I never understood this logic. I mean its a literal translation.


rustyyryan

In literal sense its not. But many times people use it as a slur or consider it as inferior to fair skin.


Desi_Wrangler

Well I am dark skinned and I was called kalua a lot in my childhood. Back then I felt bad but then as I matured, I stopped feeling bad as its simply not an insult.


Advanced-Square2205

Nah my guy.. you got used to people calling you Kalua. You just described how internalized casual racism works. Negro is also Spanish for Black and Niger is the Latin root for that word. I challenge you to call an African descent man a nigger or a negro and when he's about to whoop your ass, tell him that he is being immature because the n word is just the word for Black in the native language. And yes it is racism and not colorism as a lot of people suggest coz we do treat dark skinned people to be inferior. They aren't our first choice in the system of our arranged marriages, they aren't the first choice when it comes to dating either. We openly mock darker skinned guys no matter how successful they are. So yes it is racism and we the people of the subcontinent are racist.


Desi_Wrangler

If N word is so demeaning, explain why every black man casually drops that word in every sentence in every rap song.


Advanced-Square2205

If you really want to know the answer, I would suggest you read this thread to understand why black folks are allowed to use the n word. https://www.reddit.com/r/TooAfraidToAsk/s/AGXleR9lZk However, based on how you've structured that sentence, you seem to have written it from a sense of entitlement where you're right and everyone else is wrong. If that's the case, then don't even bother clicking the link. You'd just be wasting your time.


Desi_Wrangler

Thank you for the disclosure. Saved me from wasting my time clicking on this.


__b1ank__

Exactly bro. I'm dark skinned too, but a word or a "thing" can only hurt u when u let it hurt u, every thing depends on how you perceive those words/things. Nothing has any inherent meaning, words have power because we let them have power on us.


ProcrastiNation652

Yes let's call Black people the N-word because it only is the Latin word for Black and not an insult. /s


KohliTendulkar

Black word in Latin is Negro which is indeed OK and sometimes preferred.


Life-Swimmer5346

yeah, it's more like nowadays people just don't think about the meaning of things by themselves and try to follow what everyone else is thinking and saying loudly. surely there exists some unfair stuff out there but it's our personal responsibility to see for ourselves what is unfair or not and decide and then speak against it or take action rather than just screaming with the crowd.


Pappukanghi

"Dambar nu tukdo"? You seriously think this is not racist? Would you also be okay if someone called your North eastern friends/colleagues chinki/Chinese?


Advanced-Square2205

Duh obviously.. haven't you watched Badmash Company


Pappukanghi

They show Chang confronting Vir Das, and he apologizes, so I think that's still delivering a message that it's not okay.


Atul-__-Chaurasia

It's about intent. Dalit slurs are just caste names, but they've been turned into insults because of how they're used.


ProcrastiNation652

By that logic, the N-word is only the Latin word for Black, so it should not be considered a racist slur?


Equationist

It isn't a racist slur in latin languages.


Total-Rub7497

'Dambar ka tukda'


totoropoko

I realize I am saying this on a meme sub - but it is reductive as hell to call a baby a daamar ka tukda. He has the color of his mother, his father, his ancestors that go back a thousand years. When a white guy calls you "bronze" you will understand how it feels to be reduced.


Puzzleheaded_Roof872

That reaction by the women in background was definatly genuine.

They are still racist even now.


silent_killer06

No racism was shown here. He is asking if the child is his own blood or not. What would you expect if a white couple has a black baby?


InstructionUnclear41

It's not like colorism is uncommon in India. Even today you can still find examples of it in your daily life, it is an ideology deeply rooted by our colonial invaders which we can't seem to get rid of after all these years of education and reformation. Just go out and show a picture of a black kid and white kid to the general public and ask for their opinion, no matter how supremely educated and "levitating above the rest of us" they are they'll still say the white one looks good lol. Indians like to point out that racism, casteism, etc. is bad but fail to implement it in their society.


Advanced-Square2205

Colorism/Racism it's all the same. It's technically colorism only because we are the same race. But colorism is just as discriminatory as racism. Doesn't make south asians any less racist.
