Shahrukh time! I have no ideas. We need to watch something in his 75+ filmography, but I have no preferences right now. Well, Netflix would be nice, so we can avoid hinkiness but otherwise I have no preferences.
Jab Harry Met Sejal
Comfort Food!
K3G
Cry about Aryan!
KKHH
More comfort food!
Chaahat
It’s so dumb!
Ae Dil Hai Mushkil/Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna
Fall Coats!
Oh this is difficult. My personal favorites are KANK and K3G, but they just don’t feel right for now. KKHH was a pretty recent watch and JHMS, as much as I love it, has been a DCIB staple. And ADHM has more Ranbir than SRK, so noooo.
I guess that just leaves Chaahat?

Or, ANYTHING ELSE!!!! Check out the SRK options on Netflix and pick whatever your heart desires! One 2 Ka 4, Kabhi Haan Kabhi Naa, PBDH, Duplicate, whatever you want.

To vote or not to vote?! I can’t join you on Friday. So, I kind of want to vote for Ae Dil Hai Mushkil, Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna, Anjaam. Basically, all the movies you really want to watch that I can’t stand. Or I can just refrain from voting and be nice.

YES! You should totally watch it this week! I feel like I did my part by watching it with you in May because I enjoy watchalongs so much. This weekend is the perfect opportunity to subject others to it who couldn’t make it to the earlier watchalong and genuinely enjoy the movie!

“subject others to it”??? I don’t know, is that really the tone we want????
I may limit it to just ADHM or KANK? Because of the coats? KAran does suuuuuuuuuuuuch good coats.

Clearly a Freudian slip. 🙂
My sister and I were talking about ADHM the other day, and we both decided that if Ranbir had died instead of Anushka, we would have happily watched the movie over and over again. And the ending would have been perfect! Ranbir gets cancer. Anushka cheers him up and is friendly with him because she is a good friend, but her feelings for him never change. She is never going to love him romantically. Since that is all he ever wanted but is never going to get, he has nothing to live for, and he dies. Audiance says good riddance. Anushka is sad about losing her friend, but then Fawad (who is SO HOT and awesome) comes back and she finds love with him again and moves on. Perfect ending!!
Currently, the only redeeming quality of that movie is the song “Cutie Pie.”

Hey, I like the other songs too! And I would also say, COATS! Coats are a redeeming feature.

OMG yes! I would totally watch this version. Especially with more Fawad. How did Karan not know to give us more Fawad??

Yay! If only we could go back and ask Karan to redo the last hour of the film!

Because even though Karan loves us, Bollywood took away Fawad from us because Indian politics. I would have watched this version too though. And I might or might not be deeply offended by the mention of any song as preferable to Channa Mereya which is the best song ever, per the meme I can’t locate that says “Arijit Singh didn’t write Channa Mereya so you could cry over a song called Drivers License”

Yeah. Stupid Indian politics. I will forever be angry at it for taking away Fawad.
I know everyone loves Channa Mereya and it is objectively a better song. But Cutie Pie is just so fun and happy!
I do want to see that meme though! I’ll have to go find it.

This is all making me think we really SHOULD watch ADHM some week. But not this week. This week is KANK.

Please please watch ADHM on a week that I can’t join. I can at least tolerate (barely) KANK, but I despise ADHM. Obviously, I can also just skip the week you choose ADHM.
I can’t wait to read all the KANK comments after the watchalong!

Oh oh! Once your baby (named after Shahrukh) arrives, we can watch ADHM to celebrate while you are sleep deprived and nutty!
