Watch SOTY2 Here in Half an Hour, 10am Chicago Time!

Such an exciting weekend! I scheduled a last minute KKHH watch late late late on Saturday, and then I changed the proposed time of this morning’s viewing from 7am Chicago time to 10am Chicago time. And this one was scheduled a bit last minute too. Oh well, hopefully I still get people to join! Who doesn’t love SOTY2?

What Movie Do We Want to Watch on Friday? Student of the Year 1, Student of the Year 2, A Gentleman, or Ohm Shanthi Oshaana?

I’m torn here! Because I think OSO might be the best option, it has that light rom-com flavor that made Khoobsurat and Aiyyaa such hits with us. But it is only available on googleplay (or Hotstar) and I hate to make people pay for stuff. So then we have the other three options.

Best/Worst Student of the Year 2 Song Releases, and Bonus Bharat Song Teaser

New Student of the Year 2 Song! (also, Bharat teaser)

Did you know it’s also Sachin Tendulkar’s birthday? I didn’t! Sachin, my friend Dina, and Varun Dhawan. Clearly 4/24 is an auspicious day. Anyway, I don’t think the new SOTY2 song is in honor of any of them. Unless maybe Dina? She does like Tiger quite a bit.

Thank you anonymous commentator for alerting me to the new Nani trailer! And thank you Karan Johar to alerting me to the new SOTY2 trailer. Although, that’s kind of his job, so I don’t know if I have to thank him for that.
