Yaaaaaay, one of my favorite movies. And possibly the first Indian movie I saw in theaters (I say “possibly”, because I’m not sure if film festivals count or not). Anyway, I am excited to share it with all of you!
It’s fun, it’s funny, and it’s a wee bit long. But the time moves easily. You can watch it on Prime but you probably shouldn’t (I don’t trust Prime). Instead, try buying or renting from youtube or googleplay, or the einthusan UHD version (not standard version, that doesn’t have subtitles and looks a little cruddy too).
I’ll start the conversation at 3pm and then you all can just keep commenting along with me here!

Is it just me, or does a lot of this feel like Rani and Abhishek goofing on set and then it got added to the movie?

I kind of love the colors of Rani’s outfit in this scene.

The colors are so good in this movie, I miss the early 2000s when things were still brightly colored.

Not a fan of the costumes in the song, though. Except to make fun of.

They should just have Abhishek shirtless and then the sexiness would be on an even level because Rani is the one carrying this song completely

Abhishek is also a terrible dancer, poor Rani.

Rani should really become a fashion designer instead of a model. Even I really like her outfits and would pay extra for them. And I have no idea of fashion.
