Woot! A big silly Karisma Kapoor movie! It’s been so long. I hope y’all are looking forward to this as much as I am.
Dangerous Ishq is on Prime for rent, and also other places. Up to you where you find it!
In a few minutes, at 8am, I will put up an “and PLAY!” comment and we will go along from there!
I must go now 😞

That distracted me, too–not because it was ahistorical, but because it made her look like she was really cold, or had poor blood circulation for some reason ( ;

I’ve never actually watched a karishma film. I like that she’s taken on the female solo lead in a film that isn’t a romance, a social message movie, or a kick ass action hero. Just competent heroine in a typical ’80s style movie.

I can’t tell if the dude following her is a villain or the hero. They really needed to cast more distinctive dudes.

There are four or five actors in this movie who were effectively visually interchangeable for me.

When the tantrik was complaining later on about Main Villain busting up her house with accidental Krishna power or w/e, I was left wondering about the pots. She doesn’t seem to be using them for magic or anything. Does she have a second career as a potter for seasons when the curse business is going slowly?

The “new face” thing would be a better twist if I’d realized it was different actors in each life up until now. THEY ALL LOOK THE SAME! Casting flaw!

That was delightfully silly! And cozy and nostalgic, it really does feel like a low budget/low ambition movie of the type we don’t really get any more.

As one could infer, I wound up having to be unexpectedly out of town for this watchalong ) : I got the chance to watch the film this week, though, and look forward to reading everybody’s comments!

A few things that I couldn’t figure out how/where to fit into the previous comments:
–How did Divya get caught up in this same series of births? She wasn’t part of the curse OR Meerabai’s blessing. I guess the universe knows you need a friend.
–Jimmy needs to stop gesturing with his gun.
–The Partition-era hangout spot has a random spike wall. No place should have a spike wall! If you’re hanging out somewhere that does have one, you should first REMOVE the spike wall.
