Yeah…that’s pretty much it. We didn’t live up to our word. So…

So here we are, back again, writing stuff about other stuff. So, Bipasha Basu (thank you for breaking up with John Abraham so we have a chance even though we really liked you two together as a couple – the babies would have been blindingly beautiful) is in the land up north and east of here – with the cold and the snow, well not right now. We also present evidence of this news, with pictures from the Internet. First, you’ll see her at the airport – is she wearing Uggs? Because if she is then uggh (so clever we are sometimes – imagine bad Indian accent). Just because you’re at the airport doesn’t mean you get to wear those…yeah yeah they’re comfortable – well so are many other shoes…cute round-toe flats for example. The third picture is of her again in a cutish dress (the fate of that dress shall be decided upon seeing le shoes)…the Internet, specically Filmicafe, said that she was walking the green carpet at Brampton IIFA Buzz. She’s not, you can clearly see that there’s no green carpet but a stage. So…I guess that’s it for today. Oh you know I (Sona) was reading our reviews for Break Ke Baad and I Hate Luv Storys and we totally sound bi-polar, contradicting…I’ve decided that both movies were bad.
So you know obviously we’ve been missing but we recently realized that we pay for this website and you know we should use it because otherwise it’s a waste money and we don’t really have any… also… We were you know doing things, like trying to make that money we were talking about, which actually didn’t really pan out, but we had fun…more or less…doing it. We have stories to tell and hopefully this won’t be another fluke and you’ll get to hear them…we’re 99.9% sure you’ll get to hear them. Also, we’re still trying to become Priyanka Chopra’s stylists – it’s really hard! In the meantime we take that energy and direct it to this blog. But we got news gaaon waalo! There’s some big shit brewing. Sona: yeah big tatti (shit in Punjabi) Jasmine: hahahahaha Sona: we can’t say this Jasmine: haha really we can’t? Sona: only some people will understand it… Don’t bad words sound worse in your own language? Not that anything pertaining to feces is necessarily bad, just…distasteful. We’re also taking less “diplomatic” approach to life and blogging. Apparently. But yeah anyway big things…we’ll be covering iifa for you guys!! Retweet this postDirected by: Danish Aslam
Lilette Dubey’s character had really fun dialogues that we can add to our daily vocabulary inspired by Filmistan, so that’s a plus. The beginning was really cute and there was this whole thing the main characters had, “Shahrukh and Sunita,” which was really cute. (Clarification: main characters are not Shahrukh and Sunita) All the good and the cute was very superficial, otherwise the dialogues, screenplay and the story was an unimpressive, drawn-out, boring, yawn and headache-inducing blubberfest. There was another moment, which we related to…in a scene Deepika’s character, Aaliya, is having a freak-out because her mom won’t agree with her into letting her major in Mass Communication…it was funny (mostly sad) because that was one of our majors and well we’re still unemployed. There were a lot of filmi references, as it seems have become the trend with the Karan Johar camp these days, and even though it was a Kunal Kohli production, it’s the same thing. So the filmi-loving filmis in films, that’s great and all because we get those references and it’s funny and nice to see that there are people who think like we do. Because the whole thing, where the kids had memorized all the dialogues to the movie, well that’s us. But, these cute little details don’t make a good movie. The story and the characters have to hold your interest and yes you say it was a romantic-comedy…it’s the same old, same old, but it’s not because each story has something unique, like life. But, this one was not that. Unique. No. Blah. Yes. See, this movie would’ve been really good if Imtiaz had made it…oh wait! He did! Except, not this one because it was so bad, you get our point. That’s right bitches, why don’t you (the moviemakers, never you readers!) try writing some real movies and stop trying to make money off of one script for the rest of your lives. We’re so fed up with movies this year!! Was there anything exceptional? We have a headache and you probably do too. As promised! Love, Sona and Jasmine As we had told you earlier, we were working on a movie and we also started a new fashion blog that’s been keeping us really busy. However, we’ve decided to be regular in bringing you filmi khabrein once again! John Abraham’s eight-packs to beat Aamir’s six-packs from Ghajini. So, now we know why John’s been roaming around looking like a bodyguard! John is playing a cop in the film Kha Kha Kha…haha the name is hilarious…literally translated in Hindi…eat eat eat! While looking up filmi news, we also read that John’s dad is really ill. We really hope that John’s dad gets better soon, poor Johnny boy must be going through such a hard time. Katrina aur Deepika ki dosti…taaliyaan! Well, they’ll be seen in Housefull 2 but it’s not confirmed yet. What is confirmed, however, is that John Abraham will be in the film…we did like Akshay and John in Garam Masala so let’s hope this one’s good too. Remember, we had interviewed Shirish Kunder while back, well his next film Joker will star Akshay Kumar and Sonakshi Sinha. This movie will be the first ever 3-D movie made in filmistan…yay for Shirish!!! Retweet this postIt has been a long time. A really really long time. We have legitimate reasons though….wait for it… WE HAVE BEEN WORKING ON A MOVIE. A HINDI/TAMIL MOVIE. (It’s close enough for now.) Unfortunately, that’s all we can discuss with you. Under contract. We’ll try to update soon, but yay for us! Love you guys, Oh, lots of good music coming out lately and some good movies, that we’ll mention as soon as possible. Here’s an example of one, a combination of both…music and film. This song is so beautiful, the lyrics, the feeling it oozes — everything is beautiful just like Kashmir. Film: Lamhaa (2010) Saajnaa… Hai dil ko teri aarzoo Kayee khwaab dil tujhko lekar sajaaye Main hoon shab tu subah Tu hi toh har pal bandha hain, lamhon ki in zanjeeron mein Main hoon shab tu subah Haan tera saaya toh main hoon Main hoon shab tu subah Mahiyaa ve Directed by: Punit Malhotra
Okay, so this is really hard to do. We’re miserable, ergo no new updates. But, of course we had to “review” this movie, we had been looking forward to a good old fashion Hindi pyar ki kahani for a while now, since Love Aaj Kal. You’d think after we watched the movie, we’d feel better right? But, of course we don’t, because of all the things the movie could be based around, it had to be on the sets of a damn Hindi movie. So, the whole time all we did was wallow in our misery because we wanted Sonam and Imran’s jobs…or Simran and J’s jobs. And obviously befkoof Karan’s not calling us. Hint hint Karan! Jasmine: Is using befkoof too mean? So, anyway on to the movie review. We loved it. There was a scene with Imran and Sonam in the beginning in the theater, it was so brilliantly written that we wanted to keep rewinding it with our imaginary remote and keep watching it over and over again. Imran was especially good in that scene. It was a really really good romantic comedy. Really good! We feel like watching it again right now, again. We should get into the technicalities now, even though we don’t really feel like it. But the things we do for love…so costumes first? Manish outdid himself. He’s grown, you can tell…his pants are short now. Hahaha! No, but seriously. The clothing was very much in character, in his earlier movies there was always a ‘Filminess’ to them, which we obviously appreciate, but it was really nice to see this side of Manish. Really loved Sonam’s clothes, so yeh Manish! Oh, we hate your assistants ‘A and A’ (we’re not naming them), we wish they were S and J! Sona and Jasmine, if you’re slow on the uptake. Jasmine: Don’t do that, don’t do that! Sona: Okay fine. “ Music, next. We don’t have enough words to describe how beautiful the music was. The lyrics of ‘Bin Tere – Reprise’ are so good; they’re heart-wrenching. Kumaar wrote the song and Shekhar did such an amazing job singing it…wish we could ask Javed Saab to praise Shekhar for the way he sang this song, obviously we have no talent! (Karan: this doesn’t mean we won’t be talented ADs, Art Directors, Production designers, and costume assistants and than of course later with experience costume designers…just making sure you know this!) Sajda, written by Anvita Dutt Guptan is also beautiful, actually the whole album is really listenable (it’s a real word). Vishal and Shekhar continue to work their jaadu on the world of Filmi music. Punit Malhota, you evil genius! Why do you torture us with this world? The movie was obviously really good, the story while ghisi piti had a twist to it and you created characters that were realistic and relate-able, but also so Filmi! (That is a very good thing, if you’re unsure.)Editing, by Akiv Ali, was excellent because you know we didn’t notice it. Cinematography, by Ayananka Bose (yeh a woman!!), was exceptional, especially for the title song. Both, Sonam (we love you!) and Imran (we love you too!) are naturals for these kinds of roles. Really liked Sameer Soni, he played the combination of Karan and Sanjay Leela Bhansali perfectly. Did we get this right Punit? Or are we just spreading afwaaein? We think we’re right, of course. Tweet us and let us know for sure.
funny Mentionable Doohickeys Do: Simran being an Art Director. We would kill for that job and we might really soon if Karan doesn’t call us. Teen: Sonam’s hair! Stupid bitch with her perfect hair! (Don’t worry, you know we love her…yeh toh hum sirf apne bohat pyaare doston ko kehte hain.) Chaar: The clothes. The places, like all Dharma/Yash Raj movies were very beautiful. Paanch: Liked the characters because they were very confused, like us. Very Imtiazy. Is this a new trend in Hindi films? It is…it’s a good trend, we don’t feel so bad about being bhoole-bhatke. Che: The fact that we like the title song is a really big deal. We despise Hindi songs when they put English in them, it totally kills them, but this one wasn’t annoying. It was in fact really very good. Saat: The kadak chai cheers. Sampooran awesomeness. Overall, a really sweet, kweet (if you don’t get the reference you’re a dhabba) romantic comedy that’s actually funny! Hamarein khayalon mein aksar yeh baatein hoti hain ki Tarun, Karan se kehta hai: P.S. While we know we’re hilarious and get our own jokes, sometimes other people don’t get them. Just so you know, there were no malicious intentions. We really loved the movie and we really really want to work with Karan, pretty please with strawberries on top! Call us Karan! P.P.S Go watch the movie! Retweet this post
In honor of Sonam Kapoor’s birthday, here’s the list of the good, the good and the more good and some jealousy thrown in more for good measure. First and foremost is fashion. Sonam Kapoor is hands down the most stylish woman in Filmistan. Nobody stands a chance. It’s not that people don’t look good, they do, well sometimes they do. But, no one else has such a clearly defined style that is completely spot on and she isn’t afraid to take risks. She is so much fun in her interviews, we remember her from Oye It’s Friday…she’s not so polished when she speaks, but that’s a good thing because you know she’s real. And she has this quirky side we love, because it’s so nice to see someone be themselves and instead of fitting into some sort of Filmi mold. We simply adored her in her first film Saawariya. We envied her for being launched by Sanjay Leela Bhansali and that too in a beautiful “blue” movie, wearing some of the most gorgeous outfits and romancing in a fake little town! We envied her even more, when we found out that she assisted Sanjay during Black. Love the fact that she seems to be doing movies with some thought. They’re different enough, giving us the chance to see her grow. Even though her role in Delhi 6 wasn’t a huge one, it left a mark. Loved the character she played! And now we can’t wait to see her in “I Hate Luv Storys” and “Aisha.” Until Sonam came into Filmistan, we don’t think we ever looked upto anyone for their fashion sense, except maybe Priety Zinta sometimes. Sonam has always amazed us with some of the most eclectic outfits – kundan necklace, asymmetrical dress and gladiator sandals. It’s not that fashion is the only reason we love her, it’s a major part in why we do, but for now she’s still a newcomer of sorts. There have been only two movies out and we haven’t gotten a chance to see her on TV as much, so we’re still getting to know her…as much as people can without meeting someone. As we get to know her, we’re sure the list will grow. Until than, we can admire her fashion sense, because we rarely get to gush over someone in Filmistan because of their clothes and you guys know how much we love fashion, after all we did study it. Below is a gallery of some of our favorite outfits. [Disable Flash Gallery] Retweet this postWe’re currently obsessed with this song. The song is full of pain and heartache…it’s a haunting melody that we don’t think we’ll get tired of anytime soon! Film: Rajneeti (2010) Piya haiii Mora piya mu se bolat naahin Darpan dekhun(ba ga re re sa ni da sa), roop niharun Hamari ek (ga re si da ga), muskaan pe woh toh |
