HAPPY SHAHRUKH DAY!!!!! I am having a hard week, so I ordered the cake from Portillos. Big and rich and chocolate-y, just like him.
HAPPY SHAHRUKH DAY!!!! Last Shahrukh Day was incredibly stressful (2020 election). This Shahrukh Day, I am just really really tired.
You know what Shahrukh would want me to do to celebrate? He would want me to work from the bedroom today while playing JHMS on a loop. Wouldn’t he? And maybe get delivery pancakes right to my room? Or eat a pound of bacon? Yes, I think that is the most best possible SRK celebration. Just loving myself the way he loves me.

Happy Shah Rukh day, M! You are a treasure in our little corner of the world and yes, he would want you to love yourself as he loves you, fully and with great kindness.

YES! I was trying to think of a way to celebrate that would honor the performer and his place in the world without celebrating the person and it would have been REALLY REALLY HARD.

I am so glad!!!! By the way, your comment about going in costume as a dutiful daughter made my own mother laugh. And then think “wait, does Margaret dress up as a dutiful daughter when she visits me?”

Happy Shah Rukh day! So glad for Aryan and the whole family. It’s been great to see Mannat lit up for the festival with fans outside to support Shah Rukh.
I’d say get maple glazed bacon donuts delivered instead of pancakes–hits several marks at once. Hugs to you, Margaret, and scritches for Albie!

Albie needs the scritches! He had Halloween, which was a nightmare, and now he is cold all the time on walks but also hates wearing his little sweater. Life’s hard for a dog.

I’ve been so upset about Aryan’s treatment and the persecution of Hindi cinema in general, I haven’t written in. They’ve taken away the wonderful distraction that all used to be…but Happy Shah Rukh day to all.
