  To all who have issues with this film - for its crass depiction of an "0h-so-sensitive" topic in India, Karan Johar being the producer or Boman Irani's role - lighten up a bit and reflect upon the message of this film at a more holistic level. At no point in the film do they degrade or joke about being gay. A few times when Kunal or Sam comment (negatively or ridicule) on being gay, don't read too much into it. That is how any straight guy would react when assumed to be gay - in evolving and hopefully progressive societies such as India or even more evolved societies such as the US. This movie, in a humorous way, displays the modern world where sexual preference is a matter of personal choice, which should be as normal as preferences for movies, cuisines or any other. It shows that this topic is not something above and beyond any other in our lives, hence should not be treated differently. Any more stress or seriousness on this topic in the movie would do more harm than help this agenda in our society. Masses, with their blind faith, need to see this message in a way that can touch their heart and also bring a smile on their face. They definitely do not want a documentary. Just my two cents.
