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!”

Also this little fight between Hrithik and Danny is so great. The both get hits in, there are high stakes, it’s not a huge scene to end the movie on (Hollywood would have flipped the opening fight scene with this one) but it works exactly as intended. They really stick the landing with starting the end of the movie on this note

So THIS song is still Katrina’s daydream, but she’s going to ambush Hrithik because she is NOT going to let this opportunity slip by again–and Pankaj & Deepti are helping her trap him in the room because they need grandbabies dammit. So this song is what’s going through her head while she booby traps the door so he gets stuck in the room with her. And there’s only one bed.
