The thing is that someone from the ‘Animal‘ team finds Javed Akhtar’s art form a ‘big false’. The thing is, we agree. So what, the legendary screenwriter and lyricist co-wrote Sholay (1975), or Deewar (1975), or Zanjeer (1973), or albums like Swades (2004) or Veer-Zaara (2004), to name a very few? So what, some of his lyrics add meaning to life? Nothing’s more supreme than Vanga’s film universe and his struggling love-hungry alpha-men.
