This is going to be a lot of personal stuff, get ready for that! But also it might help you understand why, for the particular moment in time and the particular generation I am and all the rest, Kuch Kuch is still so important.
Continue readingI can’t believe how few people have commented on yesterday’s Kuch Kuch post! Oh well, they make me happy, so I will keep going. And this one I find really fun!
Continue readingNiki suggested that instead of trying to cover everything in KKHH in one huge post, I break it down into certain themes or elements. I like that! And the first theme that I find interesting is tied up in everyone’s favorite scene, the Gazebo moment.
Continue readingThis isn’t going to be nearly as good as yesterday’s post, but then what could be? Anyway, let’s compare and contrast Shahrukh’s various smile options!
Continue readingYou ready for tricky choices? We already discussed his best costumes, but which is his best real life outfit?
Continue readingI was going to write a really good interesting post today, and then my work computer decided to reboot with updates for 2 hours which killed my writing time. So instead you have to be happy with this completely silly narrow casting post. For those of you who are passionately in love with classic English novels, and also Shahrukh.
Continue readingThis is just total indulgence for me. As a thought experiment, I want to continue my discussion of sex and power and class from these two posts and see if I can come up with new SRK plot ideas that continue to explore them.
Continue readingYou ready to prove your TruFan status? This is a “best of” post not for the weak or faint of heart. I’m not talking the full fledged small roles (Saathiya, Shakti, Hey Ram, etc.), I’m talking about the 5 minutes or less one scenes. Most people haven’t seen one of them, let alone all of them. Heck, I haven’t seen all his cameos! Just the ones listed below.
Continue readingI had another thought! Well actually, Rachel had a thought on this post and I replied to it, and then I kept on thinking. Anyway, thoughts! About sex! And also power and romance.
Continue readingIt was just pouring rain here yesterday. In that “I cannot see out the window and the sun is not coming up” kind of way. Which is nice, because it has been bright hot sun for the past 3 days. So today the rain sort of felt cozy and nice. I just needed a nice Indian movie star to curl up with and watch the storm.
Continue readingYou ready to put on your thinking caps? This is a question that has puzzled the global community for years, but I have faith in the power of crowdsourcing, I believe our team of experts can answer this underlying Question of the Universe. Just like genome code mapping.
Continue readingThis is one of Shahrukh’s earliest roles, and one he consistently lists as a film and a performance he is most proud of. But, why?
Continue readingI put up two really really good posts discussing Shahrukh’s appeal in a broader sense, but those aren’t garnering many comments. I choose to think because they are so brilliant no one has anything to say in response. So now I am going to put up a totally silly post on which all of us should have an opinion.
Continue readingI has another thought! And I think it is a good thought, but maybe you will disagree. Or maybe you will have more thoughts.
Continue readingThis is nice, I can do a repost for both Shahrukh Summer and Katrina’s birthday. And we can consider how we all feel about this movie, still as passionate as before or has time weakened the pain?
Continue readingIt is extremely hot here, which also means I have gotten very little sleep for the past couple nights. So no deep thought post today, silly post! And anyway, I spent forever on the Deep Thought post yesterday, and it’s still got almost no views, so what’s the point?
Continue readingThis isn’t really a discussion post, but it isn’t a 101 exactly either. It’s just it’s own thing for us all to consider.
Continue readingMy goodness he’s been in a lot of love triangles! And we don’t always have to agree with the pair the director decided to end with.
Continue readingHuh! Two teaser trailers today and I’m not sure what to think about either of them. Luckily, I have you all to help me decide what to think!
Continue readingYou ready for hard HARD choices? Although I will let you mix and match a little if you want to put a shirt with different pants.
Continue readingThere are no bad ideas here! I am open to “stop dying it” and also “grow it shoulder length like in Asoka”. But I think we can all agree that there are better options than “slightly too long bangs and tan highlights” that he is going for now.
Continue readingHappy Hrithik Week! 5 reposted reviews, 2 new ones, I’m excited! And we are starting with the one link between Hrithik Week and Shahrukh Summer, Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham.
Continue readingFun fun! Emily and I started kicking this around yesterday, and I thought why not put it out for all of us to talk about?
Continue readingReady for a silly theme? I just went for an extremely long walk this morning, and now, worn out and not ready to write something big, I am going to write a post of Shahrukh walking.
Continue readingIt’s hot, I want to still be on vacation, let’s do a lazy question! It’s really just picking between a handful of movies for your favorite, a classic fandom challenge.
