You know that human thing where the more someone says “you absolutely MUST watch this” the less you want to watch it? Tragically, after 5 years of FilmiKudhi demanding I watch Chori Chori, I would now rather rip my fingernails out by the roots than give in. See also, Genevieve’s epic struggle to get me to watch the new Emma (which I did eventually watch, and love, but it was a battle of wills). Anyway, this weekend we can watch Chori Chori for FilmiKudhi, or I can continue to be an immature brat and we can watch anything else!
Chori Chori
Really, the only thing wrong with this movie is that it’s on einthusan.tv. It’s an early 2000s Rani-Ajay rom-com based on the Steve Martin movie Housesitter, it is apparently lightweight and feel good and I would have watched it decades ago if it was easier to find. But it is not easy to find, it is on einthusan only. And youtube without subs.
Anything Else
It’s Sush’s birthday week! We could watch Main Hoon Na again! It’s also ARK’s birthday week, we could watch Malang! Which is also Christmassy! Or for Thanksgiving and America, Kal Ho Na Ho? An Affair to Remember? Or Mann? Or we all sign up for a trial of the Criterion Streaming and watch All That Heaven Allows?
