Continue readingI was going to make this simply “best”, but that’s subjective. Of course this is subjective as well, but I give you a clear definition.
Continue readingThis will either be unanimous or contentious and I just don’t know! There might also be some real winners/losers I don’t know about from the non-Hindi industries, feel free to throw them into the mix!
Continue readingForget best song, that’s too hard. I’ll limit it down to just “best love song”. It was kind of an all over year for love songs, nothing immediately leaps out at me, which makes this a fun post!
Continue readingSurprisingly hard decision time! For a year with limited romance releases, there were a shockingly large number of good couples onscreen, from old stalwarts Kat-Salman and Juhi-Anil to newcomers Alia-Ranveer and Tiger-Hrithik.
Continue readingThank you for the idea Alisa/BollywoodNewbie! I am really excited to see what everyone votes for. So many good options!

Not the ones that were the focus of their movies that we knew would be bad, or the average lame heroine roles we are used to, but the ones that were surprisingly remarkably bad.

The cool thing is, these two films represent two different and equally valid ways of bringing queer content to the screen. And we get to pick which one is “gayest” (in the best possible way)!
Continue readingThere’s the female characters who get all the promotions and everyone talking about them for being “brave” and “different” and blah blah. And then there’s the female characters who just sneak in under the radar and are quietly AWESOME.
Continue readingOkay, I did the bright side of the delightful surprises of 2019, let’s look at the disappointments! The movies or casting or whatever we were kind of excited about and then it didn’t pan out.
