Okay, I know almost all of you have already seen it, but it’s a whole different thing watching it in a watchalong! Join in with the comments below, have brilliant new thoughts, and be all swoony together.

Tragically it is Eros limbo, so technically listed on Prime but only if you sign up for the Eros subscription which isn’t worth it because half the stuff isn’t subtitled. Instead, I recommend einthusan. Which has it’s own problems, but at least stuff is subtitled! Oh, and you can also rent on YouTube.
At 7:30am Chicago time I will put up an “And PLAY” comment and we will all go along from there! Crazy over the top unrealistic love story, here we come! (yes, I will be snarky. Even on Kirre’s birthday. I’M SORRY!!!)

I am honestly very impressed by how they end the Abhimanyu story line. Maybe he was shallow and stuff, but he isn’t a monster, he was upset to learn she was dying and ready to step up and do the right thing, like a human person.

This movie is filled with romantic movie clichés yet avoids so many at the same time – witchcraft! So much effort in making the writing and characters shine in this film

Can you diagnose a brain tumor through a standard travel blood test?

Probably not, but they didn’t put the research in. Meningioma is like the least likely kind of brain tumour to progress this rapidly, too.

For those of you who are new to this, you get that he was in love with her all along and gave her secret notes in the library books and when she didn’t respond assumed she wasn’t interested? So when she showed up in his room out of the blue, he thought maybe she was finally reciprcocating but when she didn’t acknowledge it, he decided to just never talk about his feelings EVER.
