Happy Sunday! I am progressing along with my massive difficult sewing project that I forgot I promised to have done by September 1, so I have earned a nice break watching Sridevi.
Nagina! It’s on Prime, it’s only 2 hours and 17 minutes, and do try to watch it on Prime because the length probably varies on different services.
At 8am I will put up an “and PLAY” comment and then we will all comment along from there!
I don’t know if the roses ont he wall really fit with the rest of the vibe in this scene

I’m always searching for the POINT of a film. Is the point that wives are snake goddesses and as such awesome protectors should be worshipped? I’m totally cool with that point.

It is actually a cool point, basically trust your daughter-in-law’s good intentions even if her background is weird.
