Woot! Happy Saturday! It’s snowy and cold and I did a massive grocery shop yesterday so I never have to go out again. Until I run out of cream. I forgot to buy cream. Anyway, let’s watch a silly movie!

Saturday WatchAlong: I Hate Luv Storys, 8am Saturday Morning!!!
Yes! We are watching I Hate Luv Storys! And I am doing 8am again instead of 7:30 because round numbers are easier!
Continue readingSaturday WatchAlong: Pick Between 3 Movies No One Wanted!!! I Hate Luv Storys, Pyaar Impossible, Premam!
I asked for suggestions, and then I ignored them! Because I am Blog Queen. Still only picking between movies with “love” in the title, but I have limited it to things I actually want to see! I’m being SELFISH.

Just watched AK vs AK, loved it!!! And it made me think about all the other behind the scenes Hindi films that really greyed the line between fact and fiction, and gave you something close to a glimpse of the real industry.

Happy Birthday Sonam Kapoor! A Baker’s Dozen Reasons that I Love You!
Happy Birthday Sonam! So many birthdays in early June! But that’s no reason to ignore Sonam.
