Woot! WatchAlong! I am slowly getting my life back! My weird pandemic isolation movie based life! Whatever, still better than being a milk and cheezit machine for a small child like I was last week.
Hameshaa! It’s available for rent on Prime for a small amount, it’s a classic 90s movie with crazy plot, big skirts and big hair, and super fun songs.
At 7am Central time, I will put an “And PLAY” comment on this post and we will comment along from there!

Is this movie actually written to have Kajol as the Hero, or is it just that her performance takes over? I think it might be that she is the Hero. She gets the big pre-death speech, and she gets more screen time than either Saif or Aditya. They are just her supports.

I was talking to spouse about wealth and morality in the car yesterday, and how it is portrayed in movies. Neither of us is up to date enough on US films to know what our own culture represents, but I said that before the 2000s the rich people were usually evil in Indian films, and this film is proving me right! I blame Karan for changing India’s perception of the rich, if I could blame movies at all.

That sucks. *hugs* A couple of weekends actually got to see a friend of mine who had a bad TBI. Her injury was three or four years ago now. She still has trouble with fatigue, vertigo, etc., but has finally gotten to the point this year that she can get back to some of the activities she loves (like the singing at which I saw her). It had seemed for a long time like she would never see any improvement at all. . . there is hope, even if things go very slowly.
