The entire premise of the plot is flawed. (If you noticed the absence of short dresses on Anjali (post transformation) à la Tina, that’s ‘coz good Indian girls can only wear short clothes in college, once a boy gets their attention and falls in love with them, they switch to salwar kameezes full time until they reach a marriageable age, and that’s when they switch to sarees.) Once Anjali had become the same, with hair longer than Tina’s and clad in sarees, Rahul could fall in love with her. She was more fashionable, more “like a girl”. Tina had to be that girl, the plot hinged on Rahul falling in love with her first. They can only look like girls if they wear dresses, salwar kameezes, and of course, they should have long hair. Remember Kuch Kuch Hota Hai ? Karan Johar’s ode to Archie comics? Unless you lived the entire ‘90s living under a rock, there is no way you could have missed it.
