Friendship: Filmy style male-bonding

Films are known to celebrate friendship.
And none does it better than our Hindi films.
Bollywood thrives on the age-old formula of friendship
and male-bonding that is often a reflection of the male-bonding
that is common in Indian society.
And sometimes it is far more glorified and eulogized than credible. 
Here's looking at the male-bonding images from a recent film 
"Pyaar Ka Punchnama" - favorite of mine. 
In this film, even love, and women, take a backseat 
when it comes to the highs of heterosexual male-bonding 
that is actually very realistic vis-a-vis middle & upper middle-class 
mindsets. 
At times there's even a bit of homo-erotic touches, and sexual innuendos, 
but all in good fun, supposedly.
