Happy Sunday!!!! Our first Sunday watchalong in a while. In honor of Rachel’s birthday. And in honor of me FINALLY getting someone to watch Kabhi Alvida na Kehna with me.
It’s on youtube, it’s on googleplay, it’s on Netflix, and it’s probably on einthusan!!!! You have no reason not to watch it! Except for maybe that you don’t enjoy it! In which case you can watch it and hate on it! So, HA! Still no excuse!
At 10am Chicago time I will put up an “and PLAY” comment and we will keep going from there!

This is so weird/not weird! Like, as an acknowledgement of their long bond, and the way marriages still matter after they are over, it works. But this is the FIRST interaction since the big messy divorce blow up? that’s kind of jumping into the deep end. No coffee and become friends over time?

Wait, does not saying goodbye mean Arjun is still mad at him and avoiding him, or that his visits are such a routine thing that it’s just part of the flow of life that Shahrukh is always coming and going?
Also, what’s with the “stay in touch” if they are co-parenting? Is he going to Canada and no longer being a Dad?

I wish the movie had ended right before this scene.

With SRK and Preity saying good-bye after Abhishek and Preity have their honest conversation?

I was thinking after SRK-Preity dialogue. But I like your version better. End right after Abhishek and Preity conversation.

I really like that Preity and Rani have an honest conversation about how Rani didn’t “break up” her marriage. I do not love that Abhishek and Preity are turned into fairy godmothers for Rani and SRKs “love that was meant to be”.

In a better version of this movie, Preity and Abhishek are charming casual cheaters who have a marriage in name only with nice dutiful stay at home types. And this ending is sweet, as we see the charming casual folks encourage the monogamous ones to get together. But in this movie, it is just WEIRD.

Why are they acting like if she doesn’t catch him before he leaves for Toronto she’ll never be able to see him again

Because Canada is in a strange parelal universe inaccessible to all others. Remember, Shahrukh also said Goodbye Forever to Preity.

She is a teacher and Abhishek probably doesn’t support her lifestyle after the divorce. So maybe a ticket to Toronto seems impossible? I am grasping at straws here.

But her apartment is so nice! So many pillows! She could sell her pillows for a ticket.

The basic idea of a woman running to the train to stop a man who thinks she is married to someone else is GOLD. I just wish the rest of the movie hadn’t set it up like this. But if this sequence had been at the end of Mujshe Dosti Karoge or something, I would have LOVED it.

What if you watch this back to back with K3G?
LikeLike
No no no. I actually like K3G. It’s the movie I would take to my dessert island. I can’t have that be ruined for me.

But K3G shows how, two months later, SRK is bored with Rani even if she still likes him, and then he meets Kajol and cheats on her.
