He doesn’t have that much variation in the looks, but there is some there! At least enough for us to be judgemental (it doesn’t take much).

Happy Varun Dhawan Week! Which of His Dances Brings Us Most Joy?
You ready for a challenge? I’m gonna pull out every big Varun dance song I can remember, and we have to rank them! Or at least, pick the one you love best (for those of you who don’t care as much).
Continue readingHappy Varun Dhawan Day! Judwaa 2, Varun Tries to Be Salman
Well, this was as expected mostly! Enjoyable, fun, all of that. And yet (having just rewatched the original), I found myself thinking “it just doesn’t feel the same”.
Continue readingBox Office Report: October Falls
Well, it’s not the best pun title, but it’s something. The point is, bad week at the box office this week! October did terribly, and took all the screens, so nothing else had any space. (as always, figures courtesy of renttrack courtesy of Bollywoodhungama)
Box Office: More of the Same
On the one hand, this is kind of depressing. On the other hand, makes it quick and easy to write these posts!
Box Office Report: Mahanubhavudu Continues the Telugu Trend, Chef Fails to Sizzle
Another depressing week at the box office! Which people are trying to spin as good thanks to Judwaa breaking Badrinath Ki Dulhania‘s record. But that was on many fewer screens with a lot less pressure, whereas right now Judwaa is the only game in town and it’s just not doing that great if you think of it that way. (as always, figures courtesy of bollywoodhungama)
Box Office (With Youtube Video Included): Judwaa Turns off the US, Spyder Scares Off the US
Well, this was a bad week! Overseas, that is. From what I am seeing, the Indian figures are still good. But overseas, we did not like things. Oh, and I’m trying something new, youtube video about all this is embedded in the post, instead of squeezing two posts out of it.
Judwaa 2 Review (SPOILERS): Salman Steals the Film
The mere fact of Salman being in this film isn’t a spoiler, right? That’s been so heavily promoted that you can’t escape it? The exact manner of his appearance has not been promoted, but I’ll tell you that. The rest of the plot, definitely spoilers. Yes, even if you have seen the original. (review of the original Judwaa here and no spoiler review of Judwaa 2 here)
Judwaa 2 Review: It’s True, They Don’t Make Them Like They Used To!
Well, this was as expected mostly! Enjoyable, fun, all of that. And yet (having just rewatched the original), I found myself thinking “it just doesn’t feel the same”.
New Songs! Judwaa 2 and Secret Superstar
THANK GOODNESS, promotions are starting up again for things. Otherwise, I have no content! Although, just you wait in about 3 weeks when we are drowning in “first looks” and “teaser trailers” for everything for the holiday season, I will be complaining about having too much content and not enough time. But today is not that day!
New Songs! “Oonchi Hai Building” and New Secret Superstar Song
Thank you Aamir! Both for releasing a song timed so I can watch it before leaving for work, and for telling me in advance what time you would be releasing it so I could plan around that! Of course, I still had to write the actual post, but I can do that anywhere. Oh, and thank you Dhawans for giving us such fun songs! Twice!
Two Trailers, Two Remakes: Chef and Judwaa 2
Well, this is FASCINATING! It didn’t hit me until I watched the Chef trailer and then the new Judwaa 2 song right next to each other, but they are both remakes! In ways that couldn’t be more different. A sign that the industry doesn’t know if it should look back, or look out for the new hit.
Trailer Post! Judwaa 2, Bhoomi, Secret Superstar
Well, trailer time is upon us again. We had that little burst during Ramadan, then everything kind of slowed down a bit as JHMS and Toilet dominated the news cycles. But now they are successfully running in theaters, so we can all focus on what’s coming up after them. Two big things out today, full Secret Superstar song and Judwaa 2‘s first trailer. Oh, and Bhoomi came out a few weeks back, I just never got around to writing about it.
News Round-Up: Aditya, Varun, Varun, and Shahrukh
It’s been a while since I’ve done one of these, which has allowed the news stories to build and build to the point where I have to deal with all of them at once. Or at least, all the ones that interest me (no, I am not going to touch Tamil politics with a ten-foot pole. Although my Iruvar review is getting all kinds of hits right now!)
Box Office, Censorship, and Casting News
Massive combined post! Because I am trying to end the day/first year of blogging at exactly 999 posts, so I can’t split this up. But I also don’t want to ignore any of these stories!
News Round-Up: Sonakshi vs Jackie Chan, Preity Photos, and 90s Flashbacks
Lots of fun little things today. Well, some fun, some stressful. But mostly fun! And also nostalgic.
