Woot! Happy Saturday! It’s snowy and cold and I did a massive grocery shop yesterday so I never have to go out again. Until I run out of cream. I forgot to buy cream. Anyway, let’s watch a silly movie!
I Hate Luv Storys
Made in that magical time when Imran Khan was gonna be a big rom-com hero! And Sonam Kapoor already knew exactly who she was and what she could play onscreen. And also, the soundtrack is DOPE.
At 8am Chicago time, I will put up an “And PLAY” comment and then we will all go along from there! Yaaaaaaaay!

The screen of bikini women was all worth it for the shot of him ignoring it.

I’m sticking with, casting Ranbir changed the plot as well because he forced more focus on his character. If Rockstar and Tamasha had been as balanced as Irrfan’s movies between hero-heroine, they would be awesome.
