New Ae Dil Hai Mushkil song video! Which shows new clips, but they don’t really reveal anything we didn’t already know. Except, so many coats! I’m really excited for coat weather now.
So, the song is promoted as a Sufi piece, and I am sure that it is in terms of the musical techniques and all that define something as Sufi. But it is played by a kind of rock band style group, which makes it sound really different. So that’s cool! Mixing Sufi and rock!
In terms of plot hints, it’s kind of what we already saw, but more so. Aish is sooooooooo sexy. And Anushka is just nice. Also, Ranbir is all sex sex sex with Aish, but he’s all “I sincerely care about and enjoy spending time with” with Anushka. The moment when he checks her forehead for fever, or just watches and smiles at her while she plays video games, we don’t really see anything equivalent with Aish.
But mostly, the coats! By halfway through, I was thinking maybe I needed to buy a new one. And I already have 5!
But, look at this amazing trench on Aish! Coming together in beautiful unity with Ranbir’s pea coat.

Or, her awesome navy thing with the big soft wool color. I just want to rub my cheek on it!

Or, her white coat! I know it’s completely impractical to have a white coat (possible character touch? She is the kind of heedless mad woman who would buy a white coat?), but it’s so pretty!

But it’s not just Aish! Even Ranbir, in his arty rockstar way, has this really interesting sort of drape-y full length thing.

And Anushka! In her more cheerful and practical mode, a perfectly reasonable half-length thing, but in pink! I want a pink coat (to go with my current yellow, maroon, green, black, and tan options)! Plus, she has that super soft white stuff at the color, just like Aish does. It’s a sign! They are the same, underneath! Or, the same designer did both their costumes. One or the other.

And then there are the actual practical options. Which, I guess if it’s cold enough that you need the full puffy style of coat, you might as well go for bright red.

Coats are the sweaters of the 21st century. Discuss.

So, does that make Aish the new Lana Turner?
Oh, and did you follow the twitter back and forth recently between Karan and Rishi about Rishi’s awesome sweater game back in the 80s? I think I can find the links…..

Oh my gosh, Aish really is the new Lana Turner in this! It just hit me! All mature but still beautiful woman coming into her sexual own I may need to re-watch Peyton Place before I see it.

Is it just me or does this movie in general remind you of Jab Tak Hai Jaan?

I am definitely getting the same vibe. Rainy London scenes, coats, love triangle, Anushka. In general, I find Karan more reminiscent of Yash than Aditya.

Poem [Lana Turner has collapsed!]
Frank O’Hara, 1926 – 1966
Lana Turner has collapsed!
I was trotting along and suddenly
it started raining and snowing
and you said it was hailing
but hailing hits you on the head
hard so it was really snowing and
raining and I was in such a hurry
to meet you but the traffic
was acting exactly like the sky
and suddenly I see a headline
LANA TURNER HAS COLLAPSED!
there is no snow in Hollywood
there is no rain in California
I have been to lots of parties
and acted perfectly disgraceful
but I never actually collapsed
oh Lana Turner we love you get up
