Oh my gosh is this an entertaining movie! I had forgotten how ludicrously ridiculously fun it is. Really, you should watch it! And it’s on Netflix!
Continue readingThis is a silly silly post. But I find Shahrukh in hats hilarious! And it’s Friday, why not have a laugh.
Continue readingPoor Rani Mukherjee, tends to be forgotten in all of this. She is the most tragic and sad character of all, and the most quietly unique in love triangles.
Continue readingYou ready to make an objective judgement? We already had the “which Shahrukh do you want to marry” question a while back (which descended in to anarchy once the element of money/house was added, we all want the Goa house). No, this is purely objectively looking at his behavior as a life partner, in which film is he the BEST life partner?
Continue readingOh, this is such a fun idea! A week focused on female directors. A bit different, it doesn’t really work as just reviews (although there will be some of those), more an introduction to these women and their work.
Continue readingFinal section! Meenaji is one of those rare artists where the end of her life and her last film were so perfectly matched that I can write a post that weaves in one with the other.
Continue readingSecond to last post! I am so glad that I have an excuse to repost these posts, I really like them. It’s like a little birthday present for you to me.
Continue readingPart 2! Continuing the Meena Kumari celebration. I don’t know if anyone else on the internet is celebrating her today, but I can have my own little party over here.
Continue readingThis is going to be a lot of personal stuff, get ready for that! But also it might help you understand why, for the particular moment in time and the particular generation I am and all the rest, Kuch Kuch is still so important.
Continue readingI hope this is enough time for folks to actually watch the film. I’ll probably be putting up the review Friday evening, so it will be pretty fresh all weekend, you can watch the film any time Friday through Sunday. And it is such fun! A great thing to do over the weekend.
Continue readingI can’t believe how few people have commented on yesterday’s Kuch Kuch post! Oh well, they make me happy, so I will keep going. And this one I find really fun!
Continue readingNiki suggested that instead of trying to cover everything in KKHH in one huge post, I break it down into certain themes or elements. I like that! And the first theme that I find interesting is tied up in everyone’s favorite scene, the Gazebo moment.
Continue readingReally, this is a present to me. I love this series so much, I will use any excuse to refer back to it. And hey, an Index! Who doesn’t love an Index?
Continue readingHappy Birthday Sanjay! I can’t do my traditional “reasons I love you” biographical post, because I’ve already gone so far into your biography, there is nothing left to say. But I can list out a bunch of really really silly songs Sanjay was in to make us smile!
Continue readingFinally, a weekend when I am sincerely excited about the release! A nice happy rom-com, how lovely.
Continue readingI know you are all fascinated. Or at least some of you are fascinated. Anyway, I have video of a little doggie swimming.
Continue readingI put up a post this morning of classic films that could be rewritten and remade for Shahrukh, and after thinking about it, I think Sangam is my top choice. Shahrukh can play the guy who wears his heart on his sleeve and loves loves loves and ultimately turns out to be a better happier husband than the dignified guy who hides his feelings.
Continue readingDo you realize this entire weekend has been Shahrukh-less? That cannot stand! I must throw something together!
Continue readingI like Sanam Saeed fine in this show, but I really like her sweet kind optimistic sister Sidra who is married off to an American doctor and never seen again. What happens to her?
Continue readingI love this movie so much! It’s clever on like 5 different levels simultaneously, and also somehow extremely goodhearted. I love goodhearted cleverness, when you can see through the illusion of things and still love them.
Continue readingI love love LOVE this movie. And almost no one will write good reviews of it or see it, I just know it. But I LOVE this movie.
Continue readingPersonally I like Humsafar better, but I can also see that this is the superior show, better story, better production values, all of that.
Continue readingI still haven’t written the review because I know it was the one people were least interested in, but SEE ARJUN PATIALA!!! THIS WEEKEND!!!! It is super clever, charming, happy, all around delightful. And I suspect it will only be in theaters for a few days because clever, charming, happy, delightful movies don’t last.
Continue readingThis movie had honest trailers, so if you liked what you saw in the trailer, the weird look and the twisted plot idea and so on, then you should avoid this review and read the No Spoilers instead. The film is far more enjoyable if you don’t know the twists. But if you saw the trailers and felt like it wasn’t for you, then it probably isn’t for you and you can just read this review instead.
Continue readingI did it! I watched it! Just for you all. And it was odd and unpleasant to watch, in a way that I thought was on purpose, but apparently not.
