Okay, multiple restrictions on you this week! First, I am taking a long weekend and going to a lodge at a state park a few hours outside Chicago. I’ll be back Saturday afternoon, so Sunday morning I can ease myself back from vacation with a watchalong! Either that morning or that afternoon. And second, it’s Valentine’s month so it has to have “Love” in the title. And third, it’s Jaya week, so it has to have a Jaya song in it.
First, time! Sunday morning, Sunday afternoon? Which do you prefer?
Second, movie! I limited it to love/Lata movies and this is what I came up with:
Maine Pyar Kiya
Classic stupid sweet 80s love movie, soooooooooooooooooo many Lata songs

Mohabattein
Lata and Shahrukh!

Salaam E Ishq
Ridiculously overstuffed movie, but the title is “hail to love”
Lucky: No Time for Love
Wonderful terrible movie, same creative team as Sanam Teri Kasam!

1942: A Love Story
Wanna see the evilest Britishers ever? And, the last time Lata and RD Burman combined?

Sunday morning or after 12:30 pm CT works for me. I have a 1 year old’s brithday party to go to from 10-12:00 CT.
In terms of movies, I would be up for anything but Mohabbatein. Ooh also, I think Kirre had mentioned Prem Rog on the list of Love movies for February and that has Lata songs in it also and I also adore that movie. So I am also just throwing that out there.

I did actually think of Prem Rog. But I am limiting it to only Netflix/Prime options!!! Einthusan is too stressful and weird!

Am I mistakwn, or does a Love story offer evil brits AND early Jackie? I am up for watching any of these, except Mohabbatein, its the only one I’ve already seen. Apologies for absenteeism lately, I got madly busy in Jan, overdid, then fell into a pit of Doom. I read Laura and everything, but missed the discussion. Read Vera Caspary’s autobiog too, she was quite the gal. Wvhatever time is good , by the time you surface in chicago, it’ll be afternoon here.

Either Maine Pyar Kiya or 1942. I think I’ve seen both, but it has been a long time since.

I may go for 1942 just because the soundtrack is AWESOME

I remembered now that there is this tamil movie with the perfect title for Valentine watchalongs – Pyaar Prema Kadhal. The title is perfect, the trailer also, but man at the end of the movie I was so angry I wanted to throw my tv out of the window which I’m not sure is good or bad for a watch party.

Fun exercise – finding films with ‘love’ and Lata songs. I didn’t find many. Out of this list Maine Pyar Kiya, album is fully Lata and I kinda feel like watching baby Salman. There’s also Jab Pyar Kisi Se Hota Hai, again with Salman and all-Lata album.
