Okay, the first half felt like it had a very clear and defined message about working hard and pursuing excellence for its own sake, with no hope of reward. And then the second half just felt all meh and mushy. And it’s when the romance was suddenly shoved in with seemingly little connection to the rest of the film. (first half summary here)

All of these are more “controversies” than actual controversies, the very definition of a tempest in a teapot. But if I mush them all together into one post, then they are worth discussing.
This is a long shot, but I never get enough audience members, so I might as well see if I can drum up any business here!
I am the India chair for the Midwest Popular Culture Association, our annual conference is next weekend(October 6th-9th) in Rosemount, just outside Chicago near O’Hare. I’ve organized a lovely panel on Indian popular culture for Sunday afternoon, as I have for the past few years, and I am already dreading no one attending, because no one ever comes to the India talk.
So if you are in the area and are interested, stop by! Here is the link to the website for more info: http://mpcaaca.org/info/conference/
I know nothing about this and had never heard of it, but moviemavengal passed it on to me and told me to answer these questions, and I trust moviemavengal! So I will do my best (plus, helps me get to a thousand posts before the year is out!).
It’s official, Fawad’s not coming back for the Ae Dil Hai Mushkil promotions. Probably a good idea.
Thank you Karan for not saying what time you would post this one exactly, and therefore not making me stay up all night waiting! Much better to have it just suddenly appear in my twitter feed.
If I could find that “Vote” song from Classmates on youtube, I would post it for this message. Don’t forget to Vote! More importantly, don’t forget to register!!! The election is weeks away, but the registration deadline in your state may be coming up soon. This link will give you information for your state.
I tried this last week, and it seemed to work out all right. Of course, that could just be because my long time readers got all their burning questions answered then. But just in case you have more questions, or I have new readers, I’m trying it again!
Happy Birthday Shabana Azmi! Did not realize you are the same age as my mother! Here are 18 reasons I love you, in honor of being born on September 18th!
“Ellipsis Entertainment”. Really? Trying saying that outloud. Doesn’t your mouth kind of stumble over it? It looks good, and it’s a nice idea, that the leave out the unnecessary bits, and I am assuming their logo will be some variation on “…”, but can you really say it ten times fast?
I love it when that happens! Moviemavengal just sent me a link to an article on the Quint website, written by an industry person, about what is causing the collapse of the corporate studios in India. And it is exactly what I have been saying ALL ALONG!!!
Is that a saying in India? “Hit over the head”? It’s something my mother says a lot, “he needed to be hit over the head before he started to….”. Like, it takes getting frostbite on your ears to learn that you should wear a hat when it’s cold out. Or, getting an F before you learn to study before a test. Which is what happens to our hero here, he has to get a literal blow to the head before he starts learning.
My first Questions post! Which, okay, is mostly because I am trying to put up extra posts so I can get to a thousand before my first year of blogging is over. But also because I think it might be a fun way to start the week!
Ouch! You read for what you don’t want to hear about your big budget heavily promoted fancy A level movie? “less money than Baaghi“. Ow ow ow ow ow!!!
Really, American ads suuuuuuuuuck in comparison! Not only do we not get the big name stars, we don’t get the fun gimmicks and interesting stories either.
A few months back, we did a twitter watch along for K3G, which was super fun! There were a couple of newbies who we got to introduce to the film, and some old hands who were super excited to share their favorite parts. (you can get a sense of what it was like here)
So, we’re now organizing another one! September 18th, 11am EDT. Kal Ho Na Ho this time (following the theory that it is available on Netflix and other streaming services, and pretty newbie friendly!).
Here is the link to more information on my publisher’s website (she is much more twitter adept than I am!). Hope to “see” a lot of you there!
And in case you forgot how fun Kal Ho Na Ho is to watch, here is a reminder!
I mostly watched Dhanak, because the one sentence description made me think it would be a good Shahrukh fan watch. And it was, certainly. He comes off very well in it. But most of the movie is just about the two small children we are following, and their performances are so delightful, that’s what really makes the film. If you have access to American Netflix, it is streaming now, and I highly recommend it.
Happy Ganesh Chaturthi!!! So many wonderful songs! Also, a little unfair to schedule a holiday right next to another holiday. I just celebrated Teacher’s Day, and now I have to prepare for Ganesh Chaturthi too!
