Last weekend when Ananya came over, we watched Dil kabddi again. Somehow watching this movie with girl friends makes it so much more fun! Between sips of Absolut vodka, I realised how similar I am to both Meeta (Soha) and Simi(Konk). More of Simi, actually. 'Passive aggressive'- it defines her character perfectly, and the more I think about her character, it feels so me.
Sample this conversation between R and me
R: Yummmy! I love this briyani
KG: Thanks. Its a bit salty na..
R: no...not really...
KG: what do u mean by not really...u mean, it is a lil salty then...
R: No, man. It's not. Chill.
KG: Do you want achaar..it will balance the taste
R: No. KG: ok
R: wait, do you want some? KG: It's ok.....only if you want , u can get some for me too.
(R gets up to get me some pickle )
KG: you want green chilly?
R: I'll get you one
KG: no no. That’s ok. I just wanted to know if you wanted any...its pretty low on mirchi
R: No, I don't.
KG: Ok. I thought if you did, you could get me one too. But it's ok.
R: Babe, just ask, and i'll get you. Ato complicate korcho kano bepar ta ke
KG: I was just seeing to it that you enjoy the goddamn biriyani.
R: Oh, but I am! Its you. You have a problem with it. Not me.
KG: Fine. I'll never ever ask again. Poocho to problem, nahin poocho to problem. Forget it.
(R continues to change channels)
I do this so often to him, that on realizing this now, I feel terrible!! :D And and I so hope Raj isn't telling his friends about his grief like Irrfan Khan about how bad I make him feel about the remote not being in its place :D :D
Signing off with Rhat Fateh Ali's Zindagi Yeh.

7 Go on, say something:
Have been meaning to watch this movie for long...now with this post of yours, MUST absolutely watch it! And if I can't lay my hands on it, it's your responsibility to courier a dvd from Sydney.

have not seen the movie but it sounds like my conversation with Joy...!
I stumbled upon your blog one morning and I have loved every post.
Adding you to my blog list.
@phish phish: i think u too are more of a konk , thought i see deep shades of meeta in you, esp when it coes to a few things...please watch the film and lemme know :D
@ Bookworm: thanks for adding me to your blogroll, its quite something, knowing i have exactly 4 and a half fans in the blogspehere, and all are nuts. :). Thanks for stopping by.
was wondering who i clone better in the film..
the suave rahul bose, with his refined ways and perect positioning with a logn term plan..
OR
the straight forward Irfaan Khaan with his multi festih atrributes with a single point agenda...
some of the dialogies are just brilliant...
heheh... :) i cudn't make myself watch this movie for two reasons... one i hate adultery related flicks... jst simply hate them.... and after the dialog: Simi, kisiko bhi pagal bana sakti hai" by Simi's ex boy-friend.... i just had to shut the system off... :P
