Well, I put off writing this post as long as possible. Because this movie just has so much that goes into it, it’s hard to even figure out where to start.

News Round-Up: Everyone’s Working, and Ranbir Has an Owey
Nothing really worth deep analysis today, but lots of stuff to just report on and let you all react. Also, we get to make fun of Ranbir.
Continue readingFriday Classics: Hum Hain Rahe Pyar Ki, Playing House with Juhi and Aamir
My God is this a cute movie! It’s the kind of movie that you just want to pinch it’s cheeks and toss it in the air and dress in novelty clothing. SO CUTE!
Continue readingHappy Juhi Day! Is Tum Mere Ho The Worst Movie She Made? And if So, Why Do I Still Love It?
Happy Juhi Day! This review was original Aamir focused, but there’s lots of Juhi in there too. And oh my gosh is this movie fun to watch!
Continue readingWhy Does Akshay Look Weird in This Video? And I Have a Better Way to Use the Feather Theme for Aamir!!!
I’m having a silly silly day. It’s overcast again, which makes me depressed and weird, plus I didn’t get any sleep, plus the people of the world just insist on doing silly things today! It’s not my fault, the celebrities are making me do this!
Continue readingTwo Movies I Don’t Care About, WHY Aamir??? And WHY Madhavan???
Why do actors I like keep making movies I have no interest in? Why doesn’t the world listen to me and dance to my tunes at all times?
Continue readingMonth of SRK: In Honor of War, 30 Gayest Moments of SRK
This will either turn out to be way too many on this list, or way too few. I really have no idea until I get started! Oh, and it’s definitely not a countdown, that would be impossible. These are all tied in my heart.
Continue readingTemperatures of Men: Is Burning Hrithik Better Than Cool? What About Hot Prabhas Versus Warm?
I’m still sick. Not super super sick, just not always spelling the worlds I mean to say correctly kind of sick. So, let’s not overburden Margaret’s brain! Let’s do a totally brainless post.
Continue readingSilly Sunday! For Pride! Harsh Kapoor and Harsh Rane, Ranveer-Ranbir-Dips Love Triangle, Rajkummar-John-Vidya-Kareena Same Sex Quadrangle, Prithviraj-Tovino Village Romance, Aamir-John Abraham Long Time Lovers, and Arjun-Shahrukh (my favorite!)
Okay, I’m gonna be lazy and just use the stuff that came up in the comments of the discussion post asking for topics early this week.
Continue readingTGIF: For Pride, The Best Queer Images of Indian Film (Obviously, Shahrukh is Best Daddy)
“Queer”= anything non-gender normative. Can be drag, can be transexuals/Hijras, can be a male-male couple, can be a female-female couple, whatever! And to help, I called on my friend who is a pansexual drag queen with a degree in gender studies currently working at a Queer history museum. Just so you can relax, all of these photos were approved by a qualified expert.
Continue readingTGIF: Sexy Librarians! A Massive Marvel-esque Team-Up of the Sexiest Glasses Wearers in India!
My friend who is in library school has hit an academic stumbling block, so to encourage her I thought I should do a theme post. Sexy Librarians!
Continue readingBharat Trailer and the Three Khans Playdates
Another Bharat song! Is this the last one? I think it’s the last one. Or maybe not? We’ve still got 3 weeks left, what else are they going to do if there are no more songs? Oh, and there is a super super cute news story going around about the Khans that just makes me happy and I want it to be true.
Continue readingFriday Classics: Ghulam, No One is Past Hope of Redemption
I really love this movie. It was one of the early films I saw, one of the first movies I watched where I was told “this is an actual good movie”. And it is! It is an actual good movie! Not just a fun romance with something deep down below, but deep straight through.
Continue readingNew Bharat Song! And Bonus Aamir and a Little Girl
Happy May Day! Two laboring videos put up in honor of it, Salman and Kat’s interesting working love story, and Aamir making a tiny little girl dig dishes. Worst Babysitter EVER!
Continue readingI Will Now Fix Aamir Khan’s Career: He Should Remake Tootsie and Make Fun of Himself
This is really Catherine’s idea, at least she is the one who put it together for me that Dustin Hoffman and Aamir Khan have similar reputations as nice guys who take their acting way way WAY too seriously. Dustin Hoffman made Tootsie partly to make fun of that about himself, and Aamir really needs to do the same thing.
Continue readingTGIF: Stars as Easter Eggs in the Tall Grass
I wanted to do stars dressed as bunny rabbits, but there are shockingly few images of that. So instead I will settle for stars dropped around the grass like little Easter eggs. Can you find them all????
Continue readingSaturday Small Talk: Talk Amongst Yourselves While I Renew My Driver’s License
Happy Saturday! I get to spend the morning waiting in line and doing paperwork. I’m honestly a little excited because I have a whole bag of books and I don’t have to feel guilty for reading, because I’m still doing something productive (waiting in line).
Continue readingFriday Classics: Sarfarosh, Aamir’s Take on a Police Procedural
I can’t believe I haven’t reviewed this movie before! It’s so good, and so different from really anything else out there. Thoughtful, complex, and with a hero who is more about quiet thinking than quick action.
Continue reading8 Aamir Khan Films You Can Skip
Aamir has made a lot of great movies. And a lot of not great, but still fun, movies. And then there are the others. Just so he doesn’t get too cocky about himself, let me list out some of the ones that you can avoid.
Continue readingTGIF: Who Looks Best in Fancy Tax Collector Pants?
Thank you Filmilibrarian for this term/idea! By “fancy tax collector pants”, I mean the pants that Ajay wore in Raid, which were the standard office worker slacks, only very very very VERY well fitted.
Continue readingTGIF Annual Holiday Season ReRun: Men in Beards! Like SANTA!!!
It’s the annual (and sometimes other random times in the year) treat!!!!! Men in Beards! For Christmas! Like SANTA!!! Yes, I know it isn’t Christmas yet, but I just barely managed to finish my Delhi 6 review at work and I still have to do blechy end of month work stuff today, so you are going to have to be happy with a TGIF rerun (although there’s a couple new photos). If you want something new, check out Fawad’s Birthday Post.
Thugs of Hindostan Scene By Scene Part 3: The Ending!!!! I Hate It
Last section! The shortest amount of screen time of all the sections I am covering. But I guess the most important since it is the ending? (full index of Thugs of Hindostan coverage here)
Thugs of Hindostan Scene By Scene Part 2, Middle Third Up To Last Song: Aamir Gets Insufferable and I Get MEAN
I already put up Part 1, plus reviews and stuff, you can check them out in the Thugs of Hindostan index here. This is not a super detailed scene by scene, but it is a little detailed, there was just more stuff I wanted to talk about than could be included in the SPOILER review.
Thugs of Hindostan Scene By Scene Part 1, First Third! Opening through Aamir Taking On the Mission
Yes, I’m doing it! Mostly because I found a lot of little moments I wanted to talk about in the film and the simplest way to do it is string them all together and talk about everything that happens in the whole film. (index of Thugs coverage here)
Saturday Small Talk: Which of These Stories Surprises You LEAST?
Happy Saturday! Today is the day I do NOTHING. I am very excited about this. Of course, Dog Hazel will still drag me outside for our daily walks, and I should probably buy milk, but otherwise NOTHING. And you can join me in my nothing by lazily talking about gossip stories.
