Pakistani actress and social media sensation Dananeer Mobeen is once again making headlines for her take on one of Bollywood’s most celebrated films, Devdas.

The actress, who is currently busy promoting her upcoming sports drama Mera Lyari, recently appeared in a lighthearted chit-chat session. During the conversation, Dananeer was asked to name a classic movie she believes is overrated  and she did not hesitate before naming Devdas.

Known for speaking her mind with honesty and humor, Dananeer questioned why the film continues to receive such legendary status despite its emotionally chaotic storyline. Sharing her unfiltered thoughts, she said she never really understood the appeal of the film and felt the plot lacked substance beneath all the visual grandeur.

According to Dananeer, the movie revolves around deeply problematic characters and relationships that fail to make sense when looked at critically. She pointed out the toxic behavior of the lead character, the emotional suffering of the women in the story, and the complicated relationships forced upon various characters throughout the film.

While criticizing the narrative, the actress admitted that the film undeniably delivered stunning visuals, lavish costumes, iconic jewelry, and unforgettable production design. However, she maintained that aesthetics alone were not enough to make her appreciate the story itself.

Her remarks quickly caught the attention of social media users, with many agreeing that Devdas is remembered more for its extravagant presentation than its actual plot. Others, however, defended the film’s emotional depth and cultural impact, calling it a timeless cinematic masterpiece.

Originally directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali, Devdas starred Shah Rukh Khan, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, and Madhuri Dixit in lead roles and remains one of Bollywood’s most visually iconic films decades after its release.
