Happy Halloween! I have my spooky Halloween earrings on, my coffee, and I’ve walked the dog. Let’s do this!
First, most importantly, my new Halloween earrings!
Okay, now movie stuff! At 7:30am, I will post a “And PLAY” comment and then we start commenting along right here below this post.

That letter can’t be more than 3 pages. How does Rani tell the whole first hour of the film in 3 pages? How small is her handwriting?

Oh oh! I wrote a post about this movie and how if you are a little girl, you identify with Little Anjali and wish you were Big College Anjali. Right? If I put myself in the mindset of pre-teen, this girl is everything I want to be when I grow up.

I really like how powerful Kajol’s dance moves are in this song. She feels like a tough tomboy, lots of punching and jumping and kicking, not belly dance type moves.

I think the somersault must have been one of the stage fighting moves Shahrukh felt really comfortable with, he throws it in A LOT, even when it isn’t needed.

I think it must be an Englishfied version of “chup” in Hindi, which is more like “quiet”, doesn’t have the nasty feel of “shut up”.
Also, when I was a kid, “shut up” was one of the big No No absolutely FORBIDDEN phrases of the house, so I wince too.
