You ready for a baaaaaaaaaaaaaad movie? It’s just bad. And dumb. And weird. But pretty! And Tabu is Full Camp.
Wooo, Fitoor! Available on Netflix in America and some other places, and on einthusan etc. elsewhere. At 3pm Chicago time we will all hit “play” together, and then comment along on this post as thoughts strike us. I will start us off with an “And PLAY” comment exactly at 3pm.
Very excited to share this with you!

I do think he looks better lean instead of pumped but I think that about a lot of actors. He does look very beautiful here. Very good make-up.

I 100% agree. He looks really good in this. And I don’t think he looks as good in Malang when he is bulked up. And yes, I feel that way about others too.

I don’t like ANY of the art in this film. It all feels way too try hard and overly symbolic. FIGHT ME!

I’ve given up on time in this movie. Tabu seems to be living in the 19 teens, Delhi is in the 2000s, and their childhood is in the 1950s. NOTHING MAKES SENSE

It is hard to build up calves, you can build up thighs but then it looks even funnier if you have tiny chicken calves. Better just to go skinny for both. AND you can’t obtain that top if you eat fat and you can’t have a butt if you eat NO fat. Decisions decisions…

She had it in New York too. Kind of funny, in taht movie it was a sign of her modern American ness that she dyed her hair for rebellion. And in this one it is old-school Henna dye like Tabu does to show her ties to her roots. Context is all!
