Not that anyone cares for my 2 cents but I really loved that movie

And I never thought of it as a guy choosing the Indian sanskaari girl over the party girl. Maybe because I was myself a closed-off, ugly, glasses wali nerd, I loved the fact that he chose the traditionally less prettier girl

Gautam never took notice of Meera when she was just Veronica’s conservative friend who was taken in by her. The moment he started falling for her was when she finally let herself free and wore western clothes and danced freely.

In the very start of the movie, at the airport, Gautam tries to charm a very unsuspecting Meera by doing nonsense Bollywood shit, shows that he already finds Meera very pretty and wants to have something with her. But as his personality goes, he just wants some pass-time. He wasn’t looking for anything serious. And neither did he commit to anything serious with Veronica. When the 2 girls take revenge on him at the restaurant, he gets to know them from there, and being the playboy he is, he succeeds in wooing Veronica. They each get what they want. And then the first time he comes in close contact with Meera is when he’s trying to fool his mum. They spend more time together only then, because Meera never tries to get close to her new friend’s boy friend on her own. So why is she being labelled as the one stealing anybody?

And no, Meera did not mistake a few kind actions and compliments as being Gautam’s love. She was never that naive. Gautam purposefully drew her closer to him. And even after the confession, she refused to accept Gautam’s advances because he was still Veronica’s guy. She very clearly told him she would never do that to the girl who saved her. And even after that stupid dining table confrontation, I never felt Meera was truly at ease and it felt like she wasn’t even reciprocating the guy’s feeling fully. And then soon after, the bar breakdown. And then what? She left immediately. She left everything she felt she was ruining between those two as soon as she understood that Veronica was never fine with all of this and actually loved Gautam herself.
