I considered songs about pie, but there really aren’t that many. So instead, to represent the concept of “Pi”, songs that involve circles.

2017 Hindi Film Awards: Best Elements of a Film, Character and Soundtrack
We continue to move sideways towards the final awards, the big awards for the films as a whole. But first, little bits of the films get their awards, soundtrack and character.
2017 Hindi Film Awards: Promotion Related, Biggest Surprise and Biggest Disappointment
I already put up the winning real life stories of 2017, now lets move on to where film and real life overlap, the promotions that try to drive people into the movies. What films were over-promoted, leading to disappointment. And what were under-promoted, leading to delightful surprises? And what were just plain wrong promoted, leading to both?
Happy Lohri!!!! A Selection of Punjabi Songs to Celebrate
Happy Lohri! Which is a Winter Solstice holiday in the Punjab, usually celebrated with a big bonfire! There are of course plenty of Lohri specific songs in Indian films, but they would be super hard to track down, plus I wouldn’t like all of them! Instead, to celebrate this Punjabi holiday, I am just going to post my all time favorite Bhangra/Punjabi songs, counting down from number 5 to number 1. There are a lot of them, because there are a lot of Punjabi refugees who ended up in the Bombay film industry. Because they needed jobs, and also Punjabis are HOTT.
(This is a Repost from last year, the top 5 are the same, but I added and removed some of the bonus songs) Continue reading
Best Hindi Soundtrack of 2017, Editor’s Choice: Jab Harry Met Sejal, Perfect Meeting of Music and Movie
This will be the ONLY award for JHMS this year. Just pointing that out for people who think I am blindly Shahrukh mad. It was a good interesting movie, but it is only the soundtrack that really stands out for me when I compare it with the other films of the year. Plus, it wasn’t that great of a year for soundtracks.
News Round-Up: Salman is Coming to America, Devdas is Coming Back, Twitter Makes NO SENSE
The holidays (Christmas, Salman’s birthday, Anushka’s wedding) are finally over and people are doing newsworthy things again.
On My Way Home!
Here I am at the airport, with half an hour before the flight, just enough time to dash off another quick update post on how my trip is going. While you all sadly wait for another “real” post that has actual content.
Feminism Versus Feminist Film Criticism
This is a post that has been burbling around in my brain for a while, and I thought I might as well just post it. Plus, it’s been a while since I put up one of those posts that gets everyone talking and angry with me/aggressively agreeing with me.
Happy 19 Days to Shahrukh’s Birthday! 19 Best Costumes
I know I already did a silly one yesterday, but I’ve got another looooooooong series of fanfics coming tomorrow, and I am worn out! So another easy silly one today. Outfits! Although I am going to try to actually rank them, so that will give you something fun to argue about in the comments.
JHMS Deleted Scene! No Words, No Subtitles Needed
Well, now SRK is just exhausting me. I write this whole long thing for his birthday today, and he surprises me with another scene I need to discuss! It’s too much! I know he loves me, but the man has to let me alone sometimes. (full index of JHMS coverage here)
New JHMS Deleted Scene! “Romantic Engagement” Comes Back
Shahrukh must be celebrating his one-month-before birthday too! And he has given us/me a little gift, another deleted scene. And a really juicy one with lots to discuss! (full index of JHMS coverage here)
New JHMS Deleted Scene! And New Theory! (both courtesy of Claudia)
This whole post is basically Claudia. She alerted me to the new deleted scene and, a few days back, she sent me a very lengthy detailed analysis that I have been trying to find a good place to post. And so I am putting her video, and her analysis, together with my analysis of the video, and calling it a post. (full Jab Harry Met Sejal coverage index here)
Another Deleted Scene!!!! Shahrukh Must Be Very Concerned About my View Counts
Remember how all the teaser trailer releases were coded love messages from SRK to me? Well, I think these deleted scenes might be as well! He knew my view count was going down with no big releases for the past few weeks and, to help me out, he is posting these videos. Oh, and also to help me, a nice commentator has given us a TRANSLATION!!!! (full coverage of Jab Harry Met Sejal here)
JHMS Alert!!!! Deleted Scene!
Apparently, the move was going to be even sexier. And then they cut this part, no doubt in fear of law suits because of fainting and heart attacks in the theater. And also, it doesn’t quite work as well with the plot. (full JHMS coverage here)
New YouTube Video! 3 Reasons Jab Harry Met Sejal is Already Streaming
Not something worth discussing in a post, but seemed right for a video. Watch if you want, discuss in the comments.
Jab Harry Met Sejal is on Youtube!!!!! LEGALLY!!!!
How is this even possible? Oh, and THANK YOU to P in the comments for telling us. But mostly, how is this even possible?

Let’s make this a little easier for you, if you want to just read my super super intense detailed analysis/coverage of individual films, the stuff no one else on The Internet or even in the real world really does, here are all the films (so far) that have gotten this kind of treatment.

Jab Harry Met Sejal Reception Explained and Telugu Box Office Update
I did it! I figured out how to add a title sequence with music to my youtube videos without breaking copyright laws!!! It’s a MIRACLE!!!! Only, I can only do it using the youtube editor tool that will only be around until September 20. Oh well.
Jab Harry Met Sejal Discussion post: Harry
I think this is it, isn’t it? It’s such a tiny focused movie, we have the two characters and their future together, and there isn’t really any other large area to talk about. Anyway, here is where we can all fight over our visions of Harry. I’ll give mine, which is neither wrong nor right but just how I see it, and you can give yours which is also neither right nor wrong. God bless Imtiaz for giving us such an open-ended character! (full index of JHMS posts here)
Jab Harry Met Sejal Discussion Post: What Happens After the End?
This is just fun times. Let’s all share our own versions of what happens after the end of the film, what’s next for them? Again, no right or wrong answer, you don’t have to agree with me and I don’t have to agree with you, the film is open. (full index of JHMS coverage here)
Jab Harry Met Sejal Scene By Scene Part 27: Butterfly
Here we are, at the end! I will be putting up a few sort of open discussion posts in a bit, because it feels like people still have things to say, but this is the end of the actual scene by scene. Hopefully as nice an ending as it was for the film itself, a moment of joy confirming everything we have seen before (full index of JHMS coverage here)
Jab Harry Met Sejal Scene By Scene Part 26: The Kiss
Well, here we are, the best part, which I have set aside in its own post for your re-reading ease. And my writing pleasure. And which also means that “Butterfly” gets it’s own post, Part 27, so we are BEATING BAHUBALI 2!!!! Be very proud. (full index of JHMS coverage here)
Jab Harry Met Sejal Scene By Scene Part 25: Harry Finally Makes His Move
We are finally here! This is going to be another epic length post, I can just feel it. But it won’t finish everything. Because I have decided, the very very end of the film is going to get it’s own little post. Because I kind of suspect it is something you will want to be able to easily find and read and reread and reread as we suffer through the long long wait for Netflix (full index of JHMS coverage here)
Box Office: Bareilly Ki Barfi is Still Doing Sweet, Arjun Reddy is Astounding
Well this is an exciting box office week! Not in Hindi film, Toilet and Jab Harry Met Sejal are declining, A Gentleman is flopping (even though it is SO GOOD! People are stupid), Bareilly Ki Barfi is holding steady in it’s small way. No no, it’s the southern market that is FINALLY healthy again. Well, Telugu. Tamil is still on life support.
Jab Harry Met Sejal Scene By Scene Part 24: The Fight
I am so excited to write this part! Because in the middle of a discussion in the comments about it like 4 days ago, I had a sudden revelation and I have been holding off on sharing it until now, because why waste it on a comment when I can use it in a post? (full index of JHMS coverage here)
