Outcaste Nakshatras: The Outsiders (part 3)

Here's part 1 and part 2

The more I study Mleccha nakshatra natives and the art they make, the more I understand how deeply lonely it is to have a Mleccha nak (Bharani, Ashlesha, Vishaka, Shravana) and I really feel for them. To live your whole life feeling misunderstood and othered is so difficult.

The movie Edward Scissorhands is a really good example of the "outcast" trope. The titular character is played by Johnny Depp who has Ashlesha Rising and his love interest is played by Winona Ryder who has Mercury (amatyakaraka) & Venus (atmakaraka) in Vishaka

I find Outcaste nak pairing very interesting because obviously you only feel like you belong/truly feel accepted in the presence of another Outcast.

Sidharth Malhotra, Vishaka Moon is married to Kiara Advani, who has Mercury & Venus (atmakaraka) in Ashlesha (if you have 2 or more planets in the same nak that energy is very concentrated even if its not your big 3)

they're both known for being pretty low-key people which is unusual in Bollywood lmao

Sid is an "outsider" which is what we call non-nepo actors in India. imagine the extent of nepotism in cinema in India that its the exception to be an "outsider"lmao. anyway Sid is pretty reserved and introverted and is known for not fitting in with the Bollywood crowd. Kiara is also kinda like that I guess but idk too much about her personality. They both seem happy together tho

Kareena Kapoor, Shravana Moon is married to Saif Ali Khan, Ashlesha Sun & Shravana Moon

Kareena's parents are famous actors who are separated (her dad was misogynistic and abusive and didn't want women to act) and even tho she's a nepo baby she didn't grow up with the same privileges as others in her famous family. Her elder sister had to drop out of school to support the family by acting as they were raised by a single mom and had fallen on bad times. You can see how the "outcast" themes were present in Kareena's life even though she's a very privileged nepo baby

Saif is also a nepo baby (welcome to bollywood lol) but he married a much older actress when he was 21 and had two kids. they later got divorced and Saif received a ton of bad press for alleged adultery, not getting custody or visitation rights of the kids, not paying child support (the amount was absurdly high tbh) etc he didn't fit in with the other actors of his generation. The media & public went crazy when news of Saif & Kareena getting married came out bc Saif is a divorcee with 2 kids (this stuff is still taboo in India unfortunately) and Kareena is one of the most successful stars of her generation. But they've been married for 10+ yrs and have 2 kids and are as happy as ever.

Even Kareena's longterm ex-boyfriend, Shahid Kapoor was a Mleccha caste nak guy (he has Vishaka Moon)

Expanding on the outcast tropes, Shahid's parents separated when he was young and he saw little of his biological father. He had to work very hard for very long to break into the industry and even now, he's not really given his due as an actor.

Alia Bhatt, Shravana Rising is married to Ranbir Kapoor, Shravana Moon

their marriage seems hella toxic to me ngl BUT they've both had similar childhoods.

Alia & Ranbir are both nepo babies (welcome to bollywood), Alia is like a tier 3 nepo (her father is a notoriously controversial filmmaker) whilst Ranbir is like a tier 1 nepo (he is a 4th generation actor from the biggest film family in India) however both their parents had unhappy marriages, and both of them had abusive fathers. trauma bonding, mayhaps? they're both also extremely close to their mothers as well (Moon dominant people often tend to be)

Its another example of Outcaste naks bonding over their shared experiences/feelings of being the outcast.

all members of Blackpink have an Outcaste nakshatra in their chart that is prominent in some way.

Jisoo- Shravana Moon, Venus in Vishaka (darakaraka), Ketu in Bharani

Rose- Venus conjunct Jupiter (debilitated) in Shravana

Jennie- Vishaka Moon, Mars in Shravana

Lisa- Jupiter in Shravana (debilitated), Swati Moon (Swati is a Shudra nak, which is the lowest caste so the themes are similar to that of outcaste naks)

This is interesting to me because BP is the biggest girl group of all time yet they are also probably disproportionately hated for things they cant even control. they were mismanaged by a shitty ass company with very few comebacks and barely got to display their true calibre as artists and their media interactions, promos, other activities etc were severely controlled and restricted. all of this is to say that despite being the most successful group their actual experiences are far from sunshine and roses. they were treated like outcasts by their company and the industry and fans. they trained for 4-6 years, enduring a brutal and toxic system, worked very hard with what they were given, with 0 creative liberty to come this far im glad theyre pursuing solo careers now and hope to see them thrive<333

the movie Lost in Translation is a good example of two outcasts/lonely people who find comfort in each other

Bill Murray is Shravana Moon and Scarlett Johansson is Vishaka Moon

Sridevi, Ashlesha Sun & Rising and Boney Kapoor, Vishaka Sun & Mercury

So they had a really fcked up marriage that I won't get into but they were both people who felt like outcasts in their lives. Sridevi grew up with a stepfather and was pushed into acting by her mother when she was 3-4 years old (she's like an Indian Judy Garland tbh) who deprived her of formal education and a normal life so that she'd be the family cash cow. Being South Indian, she also found it hard to fit in among Bollywood folks as she initially spoke neither Hindi nor English. Boney's the ugly duckling of his family and his younger brother is one of the most famous/iconic actors ever, he had to become a movie producer since his brothers became actors and his father (who was a movie producer) thought it would be better if he stayed behind the scenes. themes of exclusion and outcast-ness crop up in their lives and in the lives of all the people I mention here.

Lady Bird is a good example of a movie about a female teenage outcast. The titular character is played by Saoirse Ronan, who has Bharani Moon

Recently I came across the content creator, Alana Lintao who often makes shorts about social behaviour. This one in particular stood out to me because its literally about one person being excluded by a group of friends or being treated like "the other".

Alana plays the excluded friend in this short as well. She has Bharani Sun, Swati Moon and Mercury in Revati amatyakaraka (Swati & Revati are both Shudra naks)

Outcaste naks are vilified and crucified for mistakes others get away with.

Janet Jackson, Vishaka Rising & Ketu

Janet's career took a hit and her life took a tumultuous turn after the Superbowl incident. She did not deserve all the vitriol she received then especially considering how so many others get away with wayyy worse

Jennie, Vishaka Moon gets hated on for absolutely nothing

Lana Del Rey, Ashlesha Moon, Vishaka Rising (&stellium)

Lana does say dumb things from time to time but she gets soooo much unnecessary hate

I have noticed how Outcaste nakshatras often tend to have really difficult childhood experiences

Jeanette McCurdy- Ardra sun, Bharani Moon & Pushya Rising

Jeanette opens up about her abusive mother and terrible childhood in her memoir. I mention her other placements as well because I've noticed that both Ardra & Pushya natives also experience abuse in their early lives

Britney Spears, Shravana Moon

she has endured so much abuse from so many people including her family. i wish her peace.

Wheein, Vishaka Moon grew up with a single mother and later after she made her debut her estranged father tried to borrow money from people under her name?? there was a minor scandal about it many years ago. She also grew up quite lower middle class if not poor.

David Bowie, Shravana Rising

Bowie once said, "“It wasn’t a particularly happy childhood, my parents were cold emotionally. There weren’t many hugs. I always craved affection because of that.”

Cole & Dylan Sprouse, Ashlesha Sun

Speaking on the Call Her Daddy podcast, he explained that their mother's issues with mental health and addiction contributed to her being "financially the most irresponsible woman ever." He said that when their dad was given forced custody when the boys were 10, their mom had already spent everything they'd earned from their early acting jobs. Though their dad wanted them to be "normal kids," he ultimately decided that the boys' acting careers were a financial necessity.

Ariel Winter, Shravana Sun

Ariel Winter has spoken out about how acting wasn't her choice, but it was her mother's. Ariel shared that her mother, Crystal Workman, had dreams of being an actor herself. Ariel said that with Crystal as her stage mom, she dealt with a lot of abuse and exploitation.

Once Ariel's acting career began, she said her mom put her on a strict diet and neglected her education. Her mother also had her dress in outfits that sexualized her. Ariel claimed her mom put her in “the smallest miniskirts, sailor suits, low-cut things, the shortest dresses you’ve ever seen. People thought I was 24 when I was 12. If there was going to be a nude scene when I was that age, my mother would have a thousand percent said yes.”

Now Bollywood is an industry run by film dynasties, its very rare for someone from the outside to break in and make it big. Being an "Outsider" is very difficult, people bully you, try to sabotage your career, try to isolate you etc etc, needless to say its not for the faint of heart. So lets take a look at some of the most successful "Outsiders" in Bollywood who made it big without any family in the business

ofc we have to start with the most successful outsider of all time, Shahrukh Khan, Shravana Moon

he truly came from nothing (father died when he was a teenager, mother died before he made his debut, has a sister with special needs who he has taken care of his entire life) and became the biggest star in the world.

Akshay Kumar, Vishaka Moon, he was a martial artist, chef, waiter and worked numerous odd jobs before he started modelling in his late 20s and later started acting and today he has a net worth of $340 million

Anushka Sharma, Bharani Sun

her life is truly a case of being lucky af, she was a model and by the age of 19-20 she was cast in a film opposite Shahrukh Khan aka the biggest actor in the country produced by YRF, one of the biggest film production companies in India. its truly a fairy tale because neither can Anushka act nor is she gifted in any other way (bad dancer, heck she was even an awful model) but she's incredibly successful in every way and is now married to the (former) Captain of the Indian cricket team

Deepika Padukone, Shravana Rising

she is from a privileged background (her dad's a renowned badminton player) but she worked very very hard to get where she is today and has had more career longevity than just about any other actress.

Bipasha Basu & John Abraham, Bharani Moon

they were both a hot couple who were really popular in the 2000s

there are many other successful Outsiders but they don't have outcaste naks lol, these are the only ones i can think of rn :/

i hope this post was informative<33

~ fic scenario ~

sebongs as bollywood scenarios/movies/actor:

coups: first thought scoups is a RAICHAND! i think he'd be a very shahrukh khan character. running and trying to catch the train which has the girl of his dream. like ddjl or even k3g

jeonghan: he's definitely the guy who keeps annoying the actress and eventually she falls in love with his charms for some apparent reason. like all Govinda movies.

joshua: omg tell me you don't think about all the iconic rom coms of Imran Khan, Jane tu ya jaane Na, Ek Mai aur ek tu, he'd be so cute for all these roles!!!

jun: junie would be amazing in the roles of Aman from kal ho na ho and/or Raj from Mohabbatein. THE MAN CAN ACT AND SO WELL!!!

hoshi: a rom com would be incomplete if hoshi isn't the star. so Varun Dhawan coded, funny, witty, loud and always dancing!

wonwoo: all those soldier romantic movies which has drama, action, romance, whether it's veer Zara, shershaah. wonwoo would kill it with the action scenes and subtle flirting!!

woozi: Aditya (Shahid Kapoor) from jab we met because how quiet and reserved woozi is but deep now we know he's an old softie!

the8: he'd suit roles of rockstar/tamasha. the soul searcher, the loves with all his heart, the passionate person who sets out to find the meaning of life!

mingyu: he's so Aditya roy Kapoor/ Siddharth Kapoor coded. he'd fit so well for Ok jaanu. biggest pookie fr. or even bunny from yjhd. I'm sorry this man is too dashing to not fit the role of "chocolate boy of bollywood"

dk: ranveer singh immediately. no other thoughts. nothing else to consider. if both of them meet it's going to be so chaotic. also something like bajirao mastani would suit our arthur so much!!!

seungkwan: ahh i think saif ali khan and his charm in the early 2000s would suit seugkwan so much. Hum tum, love aaj kal, Tara rum pum. attracting people with his wit but also being annoying at times hahaha

vernon: i think Kabir from ZNMD would be a role Vernon would slay and it also matches his personality. finding epiphany, falling in love and appreciating life!

dino: i meannn he'd be so good in movies like Ajab Prem ki gajab kahani, Student of the year or Wake up Sid. The boy next door, who is handsome, can sing and dance, is passionate about life. It'd be so cool to watch!

Saif Ali Khan Responds to Karan Johar’s Controversial Remarks on Star Fees

Bollywood is no stranger to controversies, especially when it comes to the subject of star fees. Recently, a statement made by filmmaker Karan Johar about the exorbitant fees charged by Bollywood actors has sparked a heated debate in the industry. Many stars have kept silent, but Saif Ali Khan, known for his candidness, has now addressed the issue, offering his perspective on the matter.

Karan Johar's Remarks on Star Fees

In a recent interview, Karan Johar voiced his concern over the growing disparity between what actors charge and the return on investment their films bring to the box office. Johar, one of the most successful filmmakers in the industry, expressed that the high fees charged by certain Bollywood actors could put undue pressure on the production budget, making it difficult to ensure profitability, especially in a post-pandemic world where footfalls in theaters have reduced significantly.

Johar's remarks did not go unnoticed. Many in the industry and on social media began discussing the merits and demerits of high star fees, with some supporting the need for actors to lower their asking price in the current economic climate. Others argued that star power is what draws audiences, and therefore actors deserve to charge as per their value.

Saif Ali Khan’s Thoughtful Response

Amid the brewing controversy, Saif Ali Khan, known for his articulate and balanced views, addressed Johar’s comments during a media interaction. Saif, while acknowledging that Johar raised valid points, also pointed out the complexities involved in star compensation.

Saif stated, "It's not just about the numbers but about what you bring to the table. An actor's fee is not simply a reflection of their acting talent; it’s a combination of their market value, their ability to pull in crowds, and the overall brand they represent."

He emphasized that actors are businesses in themselves, with marketing, endorsements, and their social media presence playing significant roles in how they are perceived by the industry and the audience. "Actors today are multifaceted – it's not just about doing films. We are brands, and how we are compensated takes into account our contributions beyond the screen," he explained.

A Balanced View

While Saif agreed that the industry is facing financial constraints and that actors should consider the economic realities, he also pointed out that it’s unfair to put all the blame on star fees. “The film industry is a collaborative effort. It’s not just the actors but also producers, directors, and other stakeholders who need to rework strategies. Cutting down fees may not be the only solution,” he said.

Saif also brought attention to the fact that actors, especially established ones, often take pay cuts or opt for profit-sharing models in projects they believe in. “Many actors are flexible and understand the challenges producers face. It’s not always black and white. Every project is unique, and compensation should reflect that.”

The Larger Debate

The debate over star fees is likely to continue, but Saif’s thoughtful response adds an important dimension to the conversation. His balanced view suggests that while the industry must evolve with changing times, it’s important not to single out actors as the sole cause of financial strain in filmmaking.

Ultimately, Saif Ali Khan’s take on the matter is a reminder that the business of Bollywood is a complex ecosystem where every player, from actors to producers, plays a crucial role. Whether Karan Johar’s remarks will lead to a larger shift in how fees are structured remains to be seen, but it’s clear that Saif’s response has added depth to the ongoing conversation.
