Friday WatchAlong: Hasee Toh Phasee! For Courtney’s Birthday! 3pm Chicago Time

Posted on August 20, 2021 by mredlich21

Happy Friday! Yaaaaaaay, a movie!!!!! I am in an unairconditioned lake house with a fan aimed right on me, so this movie has to distract me from how hot I am (temperature, not appearance).

Hasee Toh Phasee! It’s on Netflix, it’s super cute, it’s a wee bit objectionable with mental health but we will ignore that because Sid M is adorable.

At 3pm Chicago time I will put up an “and PLAY” comment and we will all go along from there!

I also like this style of Sid hair with it falling in front of his eyes, rather than styled up with gel

  He is starting to be himself so he is not perfectly stylizing his hair for Karishma.

Let’s chat about Sid’s hair. It reminds me of Hrithik’s hair in Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara. It is such a crucial part of the movie. It changes based on his personality.

        Does she go from stylized to curls in the movie?? I was thinking of Bharat but couldn’t remember her hair being stylized at any point. But I may be conveniently trying not to remember that.

Small thing, but I feel like the script and Pari’s performance make it very clear here that she truly did believe her father would hit her. Not because he was scary or anything, but because she sees the world so black and white that she didn’t think she could be forgiven.

  Her father? I felt the opposite. She knew she could steal from her dad and he would forgive her. That’s why she can’t ask and take the chance that he might refuse her, then she couldn’t go through with it.

See, this is the moment where I think Karishma is 100% redeemed and her previous behavior is reframed as “I knew something was essentially wrong in our relationship which is why I kept testing it” instead of just being a b—-. She can feel, she can care about his happiness, she can do the right thing, she just got stuck in this role in the same way he got stuck in the “cool dude” role.

This end credits song is either really dumb or really smart, and I choose smart. “Drama Queen” usually means someone super emotional and demanding and basically Karisma. But they are flipping it around and saying “what if we call this logical smart practical woman a drama queen?”

During the end credits, final thought, this movie is a total pair with JHMS!!!! Cool sexy dude who can navigate the world but craves unconditional love. Daughter of a large rich family who can’t quite be the “perfect” daughter and feels out of place. The two of them fit together and fill each other’s “void”
