How Crew is a breath of fresh air from Rhea Kapoor's brand of rich chick flicks

Key Points

Crew has motifs of the Rhea Kapoor chick flick- luxury clothes, item songs, and product placements..

There's a scene in Rajesh A Krishnan's Crew, where Kareena Kapoor's character Jasmine claims that it's always the not-haves who bear the brunt of every calamity or crisis..

From Shashanka Arora's Aisha (2010) and Khoobsurat (2014), starring her sister Sonam Kapoor, to his Veere Di Wedding (2018), with Kareena and Sonam, and Karan Boolani's Thank You For Coming (2023), chick flicks galore in Anil Kapoor Productions..

A middle-class, middle-aged woman is quite a breath of fresh air from the young, woke, manicured beauties of chick flicks, like the spoilt daughter of the airline owner in Crew..

Secondly, the very idea behind product placements which were also a common occurrence in Rhea and Ekta Kapoor's Veere Di Wedding is compatible with what the film is trying to say..
