It came up in discussion that Hrithik has one tragic gap in his filmography: not enough straight sexiness!!!! And, as his impending inevitable sexy horizon comes ever closer (have you see Rakesh? Not a good sign for middle-aged Duggu!), it is increasingly important that he grabs these chances while he has them. Also from discussion, why is there no movie about a movie star falling in love with an average girl? It seems like such an obvious fantasy!

Silly Sunday: Female Friendship Vengeance Story, Inspired by Alia and Ranbir and Kat
Happy Sunday! I wrote soooooooooooooooo much yesterday, and like good high quality stuff, reviews of Bhavesh Joshi and Veere Di Wedding. So this morning, I get to write short total trash, in a nice change of pace. Let’s pretend the world is a bad romance novel of the Judith Kranz type and rewrite reality!
Silly Sunday: Karan Johar Sequels, Part 2!!!! Kal Ho Na Ho Na Ho, Kabhi Alveda Na Kehna Na Kehna, Ae Dil Hai Mushkil Again, and Student of the Decade
I got very excited by this idea. A few of these are reposts, but the really long ones are original, written just for today. Which is why I had to do two parts, because this is much much much too long.
Silly Sunday: Karan Johar Sequels!!! Part 1, Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham Kabhi Khushi, and Kuch Kuch Hota Hai Hota Hai
What fun Karan Johar’s birthday week is! So many wonderful options for theme posts. This is a very very very long one. So long, that I had to split it in two parts, and it’s still really really long. Be warned!
Silly Sunday (Part 2): East o’ the Sun and West o’ the Moon, with Sai Pallavi
I’m back! Already put up one long an self-indulgent post based on fairy tales, now I am doing another, and I don’t care what you think!
Silly Sunday: Fairy Tales Remade, 12 Dancing Princesses with SRK and Swara Bhaskar
Well, I am spending the day in bed, as promised in my post yesterday. Life is too difficult, and the world is too cold and rainy, best to stay under the blankets with Dog Hazel snoring in her big pink dog bed at my feet. And in that soothing easy mood, I will also right a soothing easy FanFic, based on the very first stories I learned and loved, fairy tales.
Madhuri Interruption for Silly Race 3 Rewrite Idea (Tips Films! Call Me!)
I figured people might be tired of Madhuri Madhuri Madhuri, and I also want to put this out in the world in hopes that Tips can do a last minute rewrite and highly improve their film.
Silly Sunday: Mother’s Day!!!! Let’s Flip Some Scripts
Happy Mother’s Day! I already put up a song post, and I was going to do a post on stories that haven’t been done before, but then I started thinking about it and instead did a post on unexpected mothers. Which means I was still looking for a theme for this week and I have chosen…..GENDER FLIP!!!! What famous father roles could/should be played by mothers instead?
Silly Sunday: Mother’s Day Rerun!!! Madhuri Mother Movies
Madhuri is wonderful and amazing, and ever since her post-children return to the industry, she isn’t getting the platforms she deserves. But I have ideas!
Silly Friday Discussion Post: What is Your Favorite Fantasy Way to Attend Sonam’s Wedding?
I was going to do a straight up fanfic, but then I realized it is more of a personal fantasy, so the best way would be to handle it more like a “Choose Your Own Adventure” type deal.
Silly Narrowcasting Post Warning! Recasting Brooklyn 99 With Indian Actors, Something NO ONE is Interested In
I already did a very long detailed take down of Bharat Ane Nenu this morning, including an overview of the Indian Constitution and it’s deeper social meaning, I’m exhausted, and I know at least one of you also watches both B99 and Indian film, so I am going to indulge myself with a fun easy recasting post. Plus, the news just broke that B99 was canceled, so the time is ripe for an Indian spin off.
Silly Sunday Bonus! Anushka Love Triangle, You Pick Who She Ends Up With
I already put up a MASSIVE Anushka post and I didn’t want it to be too super super long, so I pulled this one story out. Also, this is the story I need the most help with because I can’t figure out how to end it.
Silly Sunday: Movies For Anushka! Reunion with Ranveer, New Jodi With Ayushmann, and New SRK Movie!
Once again, you did the work for me! At least partially. For Anushka’s birthday, we were talking about who we wanted to see her with in her next movies, and that started me out with thinking about what those movies would be like.
Silly Sunday: Bahubali Remixes, Independence Version and Modern Day Version
I put up this post yesterday for the anniversary, putting it up again in it’s rightful “Silly Sunday” location
Bahubali Anniversary Post! Bahubali Remixed, Versions From Other Eras
Well, it’s the B2 anniversary today. And I truly have NOTHING left to say about it. I’ll be reposting my index of full coverage in case you want a trip through memory lane, but in terms of thematic analysis and so on, I am empty. However, I can always write fanfic!!!! So the best I can do for new content is remix the plot and set it in different eras.
Silly Post: Recasting Parks and Rec, Jaya would have been THE PERFECT Leslie Knope
It’s Thursday, I want the week to be over, and yesterday it came up that a fair number of us watched/watch Parks and Rec. So why not kill a little work time by recasting it?
Silly Sunday: Modern Films Remade as Period Dramas, Jab Tak Hain Jaan, Mujshe Dosti Karoge, and Dhoom 3
Happy Sunday! I put up a Big Big Post yesterday, so today let’s have some fun! This started as a discussion about (once again) the problems with Jab Tak Hain Jaan, which lead to a consideration of whether it might have made more sense if it had been set further in the past. Which lead me to thinking of an alternative (better) version set in the 40s-60s (different from my previous alternate versions). And then to other films that could have been better as period pieces. Huh. All major YRF films. YRF SHOULD HIRE ME TO HEAD A “PERIOD REMAKES” DIVISION!!!!!!
Silly Sunday: 4 Preston Sturges Classics To Be Remade!!!!
I know the Venn diagram overlap of Preston Sturges and Indian film fans is very empty, possibly just contains me, but I don’t care! It’s “silly Sunday”, I can be silly and do whatever I want.
Silly Sunday FanFic Quickie: DDLJ 2
Happy Easter! Not a very long new fanfic this week, I put up my epic Amar Akbar Anthony Easter post from last year to make up.
Happy Easter! FanFic ReRun, Amar Akbar Anthony Remake!
Happy Easter! I spent yesterday doing deep cleaning of my apartment, my favorite way to celebrate Easter, which means I have one short new fanfic going up later but the big post is going to be a rerun. But a fun and holiday appropriate one! Amar Akbar Anthony remake!
Bonus Silly Sunday! Female Devdas!
Angie asked on Monday if there were any female Devdas-type stories, and we couldn’t come up with something exactly right. So obviously, I have to write it.
Silly Sunday Post: Stories We Wrote on Monday, Film Star Fantasies!
This is another assortment of short story ideas, courtesy of you, my commentators! But slightly expanded by me, the blogger. Based on the comments on this post here.
Silly Sunday: For Women’s Day! Movies About Strong Women
Happy Sunday! This week, a collection of movies about strong survivor type women. Going with just outlines again, because I love it when you help me fill in the outlines! Oh, and if you are looking for SRK, he is at the last story.
Silly Sunday: I’m on Vacation, so You Get To Help Me Write It This Week!
I’ve got a couple of story ideas, but I’ve got vacation brain so I can’t fully work them out. You get to help me with that! It’ll be fun!
Silly Sunday: FanFic We Wrote on Monday!
This was fun, I didn’t have to write anything this week! We wrote it all together on Monday in bits and pieces, I just had to pull it together and make sense of it for this.
