I’ve watched this movie twice now. Once really seriously, pausing and rewinding if I thought I missed something, and once more just skimming, letting it play while I brushed my teeth in the morning or wrote blog posts at night. And I know I have still missed SO MUCH. But I am going to do my best to try to understand it and present it to you.

Monday Morning Questions, Kaatru Veliyidai Week!
Happy Monday! Time for questions! Hopefully I am less crazy busy at work than I have been the past few weeks and can actually respond promptly. Oh, and don’t worry about the headline if you don’t care about Tamil film. That’s just a way to tell this post apart from all the other Monday Morning posts.
Happy Birthday Prabhudeva! 44 Reasons I Love You
Woo-hoo! Prabhudeva’s birthday! 44 reasons to love him, and an excuse to post A LOT of Prabhudeva songs! And maybe a few facts scattered in. But not many. (I know you may not have time to watch all the videos I put in this posts, but some of these are truly not to be missed, so the ones in bold you MUST WATCH!!!)
Silly Sunday Speculative Post: After the Happy Ever After
I don’t know why, but I am feeling very contrary today. I have this strange desire to take light things and turn them dark, and dark things and turn them happy. Thank goodness I can work it out through fanfiction instead of going to the park and throwing things at pigeons.
A Wedding Anniversary Post For My Parents! Their Filmi Love Story!
My parent’s 40th wedding anniversary is today and my sister and I are doing NOTHING. Well, not nothing. There is a some small stuff in the works. But it’s not exactly the big rent-a-ballroom-create-a-dance-routine-write-a-poem kind of celebration that other, better children do. To try to make up for that, I am going to at least do a theme blog post.

New Podcast Announcement! Naam Shabana, and a little Malayalam and Dharmendra
I put up the podcast after I got home last night, but I didn’t want to put out an announcement until my SPOILER post was up. Because, as always, the podcast won’t really make sense unless you know the plot of the film already.
Naam Shabana Review (SPOILERS): Maximum Events to Hide Minimum Plot
I already put up my NO SPOILERS review, and my podcast, now it’s time for the SPOILER review. I recommend reading this before listening to the podcast, since the podcast assumes that you already know what happens in the movie.
Naam Shabana Review (No SPOILERS): A Woman’s Body Put to a Different Use
I saw Naam Shabana last night and I was sooooooooooo sleepy that I couldn’t bring myself to write a review before I went to sleep. Although I did post a podcast. Anyway, now I am awake! And ready to write.
