‘Param Sundari’: a Bollywood romance under fire
Post
|August 27, 2025
AS THE end of August brings a flurry of Bollywood releases, most films are generating buzz for their star power or box-office potential.
Yet one title is standing out for all the wrong reasons: Param Sundari, starring late Queen of the South, Sridevi Kapoor’s daughter Janhvi Kapoor and Sidharth Malhotra.
While billed as a glossy cross-cultural romance, the film has quickly become a lightning rod for debates about cultural representation, authenticity, and sensitivity. The backlash surrounding Param Sundari immediately recalls Chennai Express (2013), where Shah Rukh Khan’s North Indian character navigated a Tamil town filled with exaggerated accents, ritualistic customs, and over-the-top caricatures.
Both films reduce rich regional identities into visual spectacle and comedic shorthand.
