the story behind Devi and Kamala's #NeverHaveIEver dance

Senior year has finally arrived. Between college conundrums, identity crises and crushes that won't fade, are Devi and the gang ready to face the future?

[@oishi_hosh2511]

I feel like that was kind of a good idea given how realistically they tried to portray what Indian lives genuinely look like. Cause everyone knows there's atleast one dance in the Sangeet that is planned last minute and surprises everyone 😂

[@Yourfavoritezahra]

I like how in season 1 when it was Ganesh puja, Devi was talking abt when she goes to college she’s probably going to be an atheist and will never come back to being Indian or Hindu but than 2 years later when she’s going to college, she realizes how beautiful her culture is and how she’s finally embracing it ❤

True. Also in the early seasons, she was cringing on Bollywood and Indian songs but here she performed on one lol. Obviously I'm aware it's a tollywood song but still, character development is there

Most of Indian songs have female leads, there's literally a whole genre almost of titles songs from films called "item" songs, featuring at item girl dancing, and sometimes she's not even the main actress in the film, just there to lead the song.

[@Rehana_Sultana]

Exactly always bichari ladkiyaan dikhana zaroori nhi h, hm bichari nhi h offfh yeh log

[@oishi_hosh2511]

But I think there's a bit of difference between an item song and a female led song an item song is filmed from the perspective of the male in which a woman is heavily sexualised and somehow it makes the male the main character as he walks here and there and keeps staring at the woman

[@nidhi2693]

item songs don't count as female-led. even the female playback singers in india have complained how difficult it is to sing for movies these days as almost all of them are meant for their male counterparts or have them singing in keys too high or too low to accommodate for the male singer. the only time songs in india have been female-led were during the time of classics.

[@dan90716]

@@SleepIntoTheDiamondLife Baji Rao Mastani, kalank, Padmavat and many songs featuring dipika, alia bhatt, Anushka Sharma are female led songs that aren't item numbers and beautifully portray indian culture. We do have objectified songs but so does the west. Amd even in black and white movies there were female led dances by vaijayanti mala, Madhubala and many more which aren't item songs.
