Happy Tuesday! After a string of Telugu films, I dug deep and pulled out a Tamil! I could have watched one of my new Chennai DVDs, but instead I went with a recommendation from DDLJ17 and watched an older Rajnikanth film.

Phurr Promotions and Xeno’s Paradox (I Went on Twitter Again and it Scared Me)
I feel like I have used this example before, but I can’t remember what for. Anyway, the new song from Jab Harry Met Sejal is (supposedly) coming ever closer to us. And yet I find myself thinking, “will it ever actually arrive? Or is this a Xeno’s paradox situation?” (and also, once again, I should not go on twitter!)
Happy Jab Harry Met Sejal Week! Shahrukh and Anushka Over 3 Films (so far)
Happy 3 (or 2?) days until Jab Harry Met Sejal! It’s getting so close! And I really really hope it is even closer, not because I want to watch it 24 hours sooner, but because if it comes out Thursday that means I don’t have to write the review Friday night which means I might actually be able to get some sleep Friday night before I get up at dawn the next day to help my parents host 26 people. Although, I had a similar problem with the last Anushka/Shahrukh release and that turned out to be a MASSIVE disappointment, so maybe I shouldn’t worry so much. But on the other hand, their first movie together I loved. So it’s a mixed bag.
Box Office: Mubarakan Money, Vikram Vedha Volume, Fidaa Phenomenal
Yeah, nothing is ever going to be as pun friendly as Tubelight. Even Toilet, when it comes, will be just too obvious, no scope for invention. And this week I have to make do with alliteration. (background on box office available in my big discussion post here, as always, full figures available at bollywoodhungama here)
Random Fun Photo Post Thanks to Hrithik’s Facebook
Be aware, there is almost no content to this post. It’s just a funny photo that my friend showed me, and another photo I found for myself as a bonus. And a third thing that looks like news, but actually isn’t. (if you want content, check out my Jab Harry Met Sejal series)
