Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Rangeela is essentially a romantic drama, focused on character-driven storytelling with minimal concern for identity politics. The casting and characterization reflect the narrative’s needs, not modern quotas. There’s really no sign that character traits outweigh merit or organic plot development.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The film celebrates family, ambition, and traditional romance. Masculinity isn’t mocked, and both male and female characters have authentic, human flaws. There’s no agenda-driven attempt to rewrite values or disparage cultural norms in any overt manner.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There is little evidence of ideological monoculture. Rangeela focuses on universal themes like love, aspiration, and class mobility, rather than messaging or demonizing traditional views. Alternative perspectives aren't ridiculed or sidelined.
