Woo-hoo! A movie I haven’t seen!!!! And neither have many of you! This will be nerve-wracking, what if we don’t like it?
Ladies Vs Ricky Bahl is on Prime, but SUBTITLES WILL NOT WORK ON THE TV!!!! Because Prime is a bad bad BAD platform, some of their Hindi films have a subtitle program that only displays on computers and phones, and it looks like this is one of them. You can try renting it on youtube or google play instead, or on einthusan. Or you can just set up your viewing so you can use a laptop (which is what I will probably do).
I will put a “and PLAY” comment below when it is time to start, and then we can all just comment along together.
Pari’s dialogues are kind of breaking my earbuds.

Yes, Saira! Yes, Pari! Love everything about this scene.

I feel like this is what I remember about Anushka’s character. She’s so exhausted from falling in love with Ranveer while still trying to side with the ladies that it saps her energy completely. So this big speech is a little underwhelming because there’s no energy or feeling behind it cuz she has none left.

Yes, that makes total sense to me. Similar to how she plays the good-bye to SRK in JHMS.

OK why is she giving him a bag o cash?
LikeLike
It’s the rest of the money he needs for the land. The ladies are giving him the money they earned so when they sell the land they’ll make even more of a profit so they don’t feel bad about giving all the cash up.

Because he is such a good conman!!!! He comes up with the perfect reasonable sideways logic to get money.

Interesting, this is the same con he pulled in Pari, but even better because this time he actually bought the property. So every con is slightly more sophisticated.

Couldn’t he just do cons without victimizing women?

I think RAnveer’s teeth are whiter than his shirt.

I think you are right.

Meh. Not really into Ranveer winning then handing them the money. He still holds all the power in this exchange.
LikeLike
You could also argue that he returned the money because they did successfully get him to fall in love with Anushka which broke him. But the film needed to wind that out more, show that he may have intellectually won, but emotionally lost.

I think we’re supposed to believe that the sequence where he was sitting alone gazing at the beach was actually him considering the human consequences for the first time and not just plotting how to con them back. But he could have developed a conscience by losing too.

HA! I was right! I am so proud of myself!!!! He didn’t cross a line with the women, just gained their trust.

Now that we are at the end credits song, I am going to share my biggest problem with this movie. What is up with Anushka’s boobs???? Half the time I didn’t even notice them, looked fine. And half the time they seemed just sort of weirdly placed and saggy. Wsa she standing too hunched over? Badly fitting bra? Badly fitting tops?

Thank you for the movie watch-a-long Margret! I can think about if the film was masochistic with the man winning in the end, or just giving us one final twist. Not a great film, but I admit I enjoyed it!
