The humble ride of the 70s cinema has now been elevated to a more dramatic significance! From just a ride, to being a lot more than that, the two-wheelers in Indian cinema are symbolic of a lot of things...
In Bollywood, 2 wheels are much more than simply a way of getting around. The scooter and the bike symbolize independence, empowerment, camaraderie, social status and economic struggle. It's been a fun ride for Bollywood in the movies ahead
Kareena's red scooty played such a pivotal role in 3 Idiots, it really should have been featured in the credits! And who can forget the last scene in which she roars up the Ladakhi landscape in a lehenga and a helmet for a ghoonghat?
Shammi Kapoor plus Sharmila Tagore plus Rajinder Nath plus a whole lotta scooters add up to 10 on 10 for An Evening In Paris' song on wheels, Hoga Tumse Kal Bhi Saamna.
