The book was called SEX ENERGY. 😆 Also unrelated but I appreciate that you and Pitu have both dressed in a way that matches your walls, haha.

Most important question: DID YOU GET A POUTINE???

*worst case

Thank you! There's a history of heart disease on both sides of my family so I'm in a higher risk category which probably contributes to my worry about it. But definitely can relate to your feeling of jumping to worse case scenario with any symptoms. Hope you're okay!!

I went to the doctor a few months back because I kept having heart palpitations and chest tightness and they did a bunch of tests and an EKG and were like nope you're good it's just anxiety 😃

Mujhse Dosti Karoge is also an option!!

I love Ghulam although that's 1998 and they dubbed over her voice so not the best example of her work. I'm going with Chori Chori Chupke Chupke bc the plot is so deranged and has an incredible scene where Rani spends all night in a church while her husband impregnates a prostitute at her insistence

This is news to me so I think you're okay 😆

And what a blessing it has been for all of us

Zanjeer!

Paagal subtitle alert @bethlovesbollywood.bsky.social

I don't know but it works for me, whatever it is 😆

The funniest part of this movie for me was that they use the theme music from The Exorcist as the background score lol

BOBBY MY LOVE

This is such a dull year for Bollywood releases, like the only thing I'm remotely excited for is War 2 and even that I'll probably be mad at because it won't have Tiger

Oh no I'm going in March (although I have yet to book it) but it would have been so fun to overlap!

Thank you!!

Very excited that this little film I wrote and directed is having its world premiere at Flickerfest in Jan 2025!

I still haven't seen the first one and I'm not super motivated so I'll likely do the same

The "highest grossing Indian film of all time" thing is making me worried I'm missing something

Are the Pushpa movies essential viewing or is this something I can skip?

This is the most validating thing I've ever heard, thank you 🙏 Also a reminder I am woefully behind on my podcast listening and need to catch up 😭

Nawazuddin Siddiqui's character is a bit of a creep but nothing horrid happens, it's just silly

Have to agree to disagree with you on that one, it's one of my fave movies ever 😆 I've actually never even seen Face/Off

Let me know if you want a content warning or heads up about the problematic stuff!

War is his best by far, then Munna Michael (which has some problematic elements but is mostly a goofy dance movie). Student of the Year 2 is mostly harmless, and Baaghi 1 is also okay. Beyond that I wouldn't recommend any (either insufferable or extremely problematic/offensive).

Well that was predictable

I feel so betrayed

I should have stopped after Saajan tbh, they got progressively worse after that
