Center
Primary
The film primarily explores universal themes of artistic passion, individual self-discovery, and the transformative power of love and loss, without explicitly promoting a specific political ideology. Its focus on personal rebellion against societal norms and the commercialization of art serves the protagonist's individual journey rather than a broader political critique.
The film features a cast typical for a mainstream Bollywood production, primarily consisting of Indian actors, without explicit race or gender-conscious casting decisions. Its narrative focuses on personal themes and does not explicitly critique or negatively portray traditional identities, nor does it center on explicit DEI themes.
Secondary
