And the simplest quickest way to do it is to have her elope from the small town with an American.

They had a formula, they built their studio on that formula, they expanded their studio on that formula, and then that formula failed them.

This was the Yash Raj Film which the world first became familiar with, the one that was their global calling card as they dominated the international market.

Hum-Tum, Dhoom, Saathiya, Bunty Aur Babli, Salaam Namaste, Veer-Zaara, Dhoom 2, hit after hit after hit.

And then the crash, Ta Ra Rum Pum Pum, Jhoom Barabar Jhoom, Laaga Chunari Main Daag, Tashan, and this movie, all within a year.

Which gained YRF a little time to get back on its feet (along with selling off their DVD warehouse at half price, a huge bonus for me), and come up with a new formula.

Now they have small grounded within India films every few months, and one major expensive big budget release a year with international appeal.

It wasnt the fault of the films, it was the fault of the times they were in, people were just tired of the formula.

Tashan is straight up brilliant, JBJ is one of my secret pleasures, and even Laaga Chunari Main Daag has some good bits.

Ta Ra Rum Pum Pum is terrible both morally and creatively and should be burned to the ground and the earth where it fell salted so that nothing can ever rise again from the ashes.

It is a wonderful role that combines everything that is special about Madhuri with everything that has changed about her in her years away.

And surrounds her with new and old co-stars, letting her show us her flexibility in collaboration with others.

And its also just a straight up good story that manages to make a woman the center without either excluding romance or making it the main point of her journey.

She is tough and strong and confident and successful and independent.

And then she gets a phone call from India and flashes back to her teenage village self, ambitious and loved to dance, fell in love with a white photographer who was visiting the village and eloped with him.

And then divorced him and now is a single Mom to their daughter.

Not like that was consciously what was happening, but we see how she is so excited about dancing and performing, already more interested in it than any other part of her life, and how her parents dont understand.

And that is, at least partly, why she fell in love with the one stranger who has ever come to their tiny village.

Someone who feels like a way out, a breath of fresh air, a promise of a better life.

And also not said is part of the reason he fell in love with her was that she was the exotic perfect dancing village belle, someone different from anyone else he had met, who confidently showed him her village and local foods and dance and so on.

People who mistake fascination with something different for true love.

Who see in the other person a representation of what they need (rebellion, escape, security, whatever) and confuse that for actually wanting the person rather than what they represent.

Madhuri marrying to escape and then escaping that marriage when it stopped working is a unique triumphal story.

The film wants Madhuri to be a single mother living in the US who used to be a doted on daughter in a small town in India.
