Indian Samurai इंडियन सामुराई

In French, we have this expression « to cut a short to someone ». Which means to undermine someone’s integrity (physical or psychological).

And there is this Bollywood movie, Tashan (which has no interest but for its dances) where Kareena Kapoor literally cut herself a short!

She is in a truck, in Ladakh, with goats bearing their winter coat (hence we can assume that the weather is cold) and what does she do?? She takes out a huge knife and cut a short in her jeans! Awesome!!
