I am SO HAPPY! I have been looking forward to watching this movie with y’all since the WatchAlongs started, and doing it early on a Saturday morning makes it feel extra special.
You can watch it on youtube, on einthusan, on your DVD, just not on any legitimate streaming sources. At 7:30am I will post a “PLAY!” comment down below and then we can just keep commenting along the whole time. And yes, you are allowed to comment simply “this makes me so happy!”
I’m awake, I’ve reheated the last cup of coffee in the coffee pot, and to wear headphones I’ve moved the couch as close to the screen as possible so that I have to climb over the back to get in and out. I think I’ll set up cereal boxes and bowls so that no one tries to actually make me get up before Hrithik bares his chest.

FYI, both bad guys are very big deal arty actors. That’s how you know it’s a good action movie. Danny Denzongpa was in Jaya Bachchan’s year at IIFT. And Javed Jaffrey comes from an acting dynasty, all arty folks.
