Kya Kool Hai Hum 3 vs Mastizaade: What is the difference between sex comedy and porn comedy?

The makers of Kya Kool Hai Hum 3 have been proudly promoting the much-anticipated sequel as India's first porn-com. Now, Rom-Com is understandable, as is a Sex Comedy... But what exactly is a Porn Comedy? And perhaps it is this very question that's garnering the film much publicity.

Interestingly, Bollywood was set to witness back-to-back sex comedies in the form of Kya Kool Hai Hum 3 and Mastizaade on 22 and 29 January 2016, respectively. However, the makers of Kya Kool Hai Hum 3 have smartly promoted it as a Porn Comedy rather than a Sex Comedy.

Speaking about the difference between two terms, Tushar Kapoor explains,

"Porn-comedy and sex-comedy are both adult comedies. We are calling Kya Kool Hai Hum 3 a porn comedy as it is centred around the porn industry. It is about these guys from Mumbai who land up in Bangkok and end up being a part of the porn industry due to some circumstances. The comedy of error begins after the characters are known to be porn actors. It is a story about a clash between two ideologies. We are not showing a porn film; it is on the lines of Kya Kool Hai Hum 1 and 2, just that the concept is new."

The director of the film, Umesh Ghadge reveals that Kya Kool Hai Hum 3 will create a new genre in Bollywood.

"This is basically a new genre which we are trying to create with Kya Kool Hai Hum 3. This is also a sex comedy but we are calling it a porn comedy because of the story. The plot is very interesting and set around the porn industry. As a director, my only aim was to get the audience to the theatres and going by the buzz, I guess I have managed to do that. Kya Kool Hai Hum 3 is a film you can love or hate, but you cannot ignore it. There are rom-coms, sex-coms and now there will be porn-coms," said Umesh.

Kya Kool Hai Hum 3 is slated to release on 22 January 2016.
