Mani Ratnam: This is going to be the train song
Gulzar:
Yaar misaale ous dhale
Paaon ke tale firdous chale
Kabhi daal daal kabhi paat paat
Main hava pe dhoondhoon uske nishaan
Saare ishq ki chaaon chal chaiyya chaiyya
Rahman:
The more I look at the
#SaandKiAankh
poster, the angrier I get.
This was a golden opportunity to cast Shabana Azmi and Deepti Naval together. Instead, we have Kamal Hassan's maida makeup from Indian.
Apparently the PrimeVideo release of Rocky aur Rani has a longer runtime because it has the unedited version of Dhindhora, and Kudmayi is no longer in a sidelined dabba. But Tum Kya Mile is still the edited version, and Ve Kamleya has been switched from Sufi to Arijit. BOOO!
There are tons of movies from 70s-90s Bollywood which are not restored and have terrible prints.
And then we have Yash Chopra's wedding footage, shot on film, restored to digital crispy 4K, set to Mehendi Lagake Rakhna. Legend only!
#TheRomantics
Imagine putting this huge set up with those lights. And they didn't even use it in the movie.
Does Dharma really shoot extra footage just for the trailers?
Why are kiddies shitting on this transition? I found it was fitting the theme of they're both the same person, yinyang different sides same coin etc. And the ghunghat effect suiting the wedding background.
These kids would go mental at Star Wars lol
The OG "Palat" scene in Raju Ban Gaya Gentleman (1992), three years before DDLJ (1995).
Yes, we'll be talking about it at length, on
@khandaanpodcast
soon.
The best songs of
#RockyAurRaniKiiPremKahaani
are the unreleased ones.
Heartthrob is this year's Munda Kukkad with fun cameos.
The movie version of Ve Kamleya is so much better.
There's a friggin Sonu Nigam song called Ro Lein De - almost Tujhe Yaad Na Meri Aayee level!
Bollywood was at the BBC proms at Royal Albert Hall this year, as they paid tribute to Lata Mangeshkar. Palak Muchhal sang some of Lata ji's most popular melodies.
Here's a bit from Mere Khwabon Mein Jo Aaye from DDLJ.
Love how desi film twitter has picked this scene to dissect nepo babies, so bad acting omg, bring back Arjun Kapoor, Ananya Pandey, Priyanka did Aitraaz at this age!
And it's just a 13 second scene of two girlies having breakfast and being cute and saying sorry lol.
#TheArchies
Now that I've seen Ranbir's Pyar video for the 197th time, I can confirm that what he has is the Kapoor wala hero gene. The effortless swag of Shammi and Rishi. And no amount of sliding choreography and glass tilting can simulate that "Hero"ism.
You either have it or you don't.
My all time favourite bit from all the
#GoldenGlobes
combined is from 2013, where Tina Fey and Amy Poehler had a go at Glenn Close, Taylor Swift, and RDJ.
For those who remember Vine, one of the biggest music acts that came out of it was "Us The Duo".
@UsTheDuo
They now have a wee kid, and they are on tiktok as
"Us The Trio". Don't know who needed to know this, but my day feels a lot more wholesome now.
Makes complete sense that one would go to all the lengths and breadths of their being to help Katrina, to be able to glance at that radiant face just one more time.
What a perfect casting choice!
I friggin' loved Merry Christmas.
I got knocked up by this rich movie producer. He took me to his movie set, made promises. And then, started yelling at me for getting pregnant with his baby. Then he locked me up and set this studio on fire. Never trust movie producers ... Oh wait, I see a guy coming to save me.
Kudmayi is as magical as I remember it during the movie.
Shahid Mallya's silky and sugary sweet vocals are so under-utilised.
Been playing it all morning. Thank you
@ipritamofficial
and
@DharmaMovies
for this gift.

Rahman:
I miss the Ishq Kameena, Nikamma Kiya, Bardasht nahi kar sakta, Mohabbat hai mirchi .. era of Bollywood music.
It was like the composer made a song. And now you have to build a movie around it.
Yea, I couldn't resist tweeting after the interval of
#RockyAurRaniKiiPremKahani
. This movie is such a bundle of joy so far. I did not expect the humour to land so well. Even this snobby Greenwich audience is laughing their pants off.
And that saregama brand integration is ๐ค
Dear Brexiteers,
I know you're going to claim you never believed the politicians who said Brexit wouldn't damage EU-UK trade at all...
Even if that was true, it just means you voted Brexit, knowing it would be run by people who were either liars or delusional.
Love the story of how distressed Yash Chopra was on the sets of DDLJ to see chiffon sarees being replaced with silk. And AdiChops stuck to his own aesthetic.
"if the saree won't fly, it won't look beautiful" LOL!
Binged 3 episodes of
#TheRomantics
and there are so many highlights.
Pam Chopra's Kabhi Kabhie, and the Neetu-Rishi switch that could've.
Jaideep Sahni's passion for telling the story of Chak De.
Hi, I'm John - biker and accidental actor.
Uday at his self deprecating best.
When
@PrimeVideoIN
invests so much in the Indian comedy scene, how can
@NetflixIndia
stay behind?
Can we have Johnny Lever and Raju Srivastav specials next? Pretty please!
I'd scream if a well produced Johnny Lever standup special gets made!
I found this YouTube channel that has 30 min videos of "Bollywood songs playing in the next room and it's raining ASMR".
And this is gonna help me sleep.
Sonali Bendre was nicknamed as Hamma Hamma girl for two decades and yet, you guys voted for Kun Faaya Kun. All who voted for Kun Faaya Kun are baagudubigudu !!
Rewatched the first 10 mins of DDLJ.
The sheer audacity to have a cold open with friggin Amrish Puri feeding pigeons, then a khet wala background song, and him just walking through London.
And this on your first movie! Yes, baap ka paisa etc, but this shows confidence!
You wouldn't think Shankar Mahadevan, while having close friends called Ehsaan Noorani and Loy Mendonsa, to then go ahead and not only endorse, but worship the *R*S*S.
And then on that very stage, he sings Kal Ho Naa Ho, written by Javed Akhtar.
On my third rewatch of Rocky aur Rani, I paid enough attention to the end credits, and I believe I read that the English subtitles are by Nasreen Munni Kabir. IMDb credits do not have it updated
Can anyone verify? Those English subtitles were ๐ฅ!!
I am gonna flip the eff out. Kudmayi is SO GORGEOUS!
Each frame is gonna be pinterested on every wedding planner's moodboard for the next decade.
And what. a. song!!
Heartland cinema but make it Yashraj chic.
Imagine this whole set - the petals on the water, the diyas, the lights, all for a one second shot in Dhadak Dhadak.
Priyanka Chopra made her debut in Hindi movies in 2003, the same year the last
#Matrix
movie, Matrix Revolutions was released.
And now she's in
#MatrixResurrections
. Amazing!
Is
@priyankachopra
going to be the next Oracle or the older version of Sati as the fan theories say!?
The nerve of Atlee n SRK to use Beqarar Karke Humein Yuun Naa Jaiye, and then he left humein Beqarar like that.
O Sitamgarh, Kab aayega Sitambar!
#JawanPrevue
Shower thought:
Lata ji playbacked for Kajol in DDLJ in all the songs except for the one where she gets drunk and wants to jhoom.
Lata + alcohol = Asha
QED.
You guys who are voting for any Ghajini track are nuts.
Mangta Hai Kya is Rahman at his experimental best and is an absolute timeless classic. You cannot date it back to the 90s.
If Mangta Hai Kya doesn't win this, help me lord!
Watching Rocky Rani for the fourth time. Monday night 8pm show, and almost 80% occupancy in its fourth week. This is unprecedented.
And people are laughing, clapping, cheering. This is so wholesome.
