Bollywood’s “Raanjhanaa” starring Sonam Kapoor and Dhanush still captures hearts a decade after its release. The film, directed by Aanand L Rai, boasts a loyal fan base and continues to be a go-to for movie enthusiasts. However, recently, an eagle-eyed viewer spotted a significant continuity error that had gone unnoticed for years.
A Bra Strap Mystery
In a particular scene, Sonam Kapoor’s character, Zoya, is engaged in a conversation with Dhanush. What’s interesting is that her black bra strap is unmistakably visible. However, the plot thickens within 30 seconds. In the next scene, as Zoya talks to her mother, the black bra strap magically transforms into a white one. It’s a surprising and amusing error that somehow escaped the scrutiny of both the filmmakers and the audience until now.
Continuity Goof-Up in “Raanjhanaa”
Despite this goof-up, “Raanjhanaa” remains cherished for its heart-wrenching narrative. The film tells the story of Kundan (Dhanush) and Zoya’s (Sonam Kapoor) complicated love amidst societal divides. Kundan’s relentless pursuit of Zoya and his willingness to go to extremes for her love makes for a compelling and emotional tale.

However, over the years, “Raanjhanaa” has also sparked debates regarding the portrayal of Dhanush’s character. Some argue that the film glorifies stalking and harassment, as Kundan goes to great lengths to win Zoya’s affection, even resorting to threatening self-harm. The film delves into issues of class and religious divide, and when Kundan discovers Zoya’s hidden truth about her boyfriend’s religion, it leads to a dramatic climax.
Despite the controversies and now, the discovered continuity error, “Raanjhanaa” endures as a memorable and thought-provoking film in Indian cinema. Its enduring popularity showcases the lasting impact of its narrative and the powerful performances of Sonam Kapoor and Dhanush.
