The Filmistan Connection

We love Filmistan. Obviously. But there is one big accusation on Filmistan…that they “borrow” a lot from other sources. It’s true, they do. Many people out there really hate that about the industry, but the thing is…who doesn’t borrow. As long as the reinterpretation is better that’s all that matters and many times it is. [...]

Sona: I just can’t get over the Shiny situation Jasmine: I know I’m reading it…It’s so sad Jasmine: I hope he doesn’t get punished for the wrong reason because it’s been reported that he said, that they had consensual sex…I hope the maid is not trying to phassa him Sona: Well the news is out [...]

This song is amazing! It has the charm of a traditional Punjabi folk song, but the rap and the music give it that fresh and modern edge…it’s completely addicting and it doesn’t hurt that music of this film was done by a woman! This is Lucky’s song all the way…the Superchor! Song: Jugni Hasdi Ve [...]

Abhishek, Ashwariya, Amitabh Bachchan Sona: Isn’t the statue creepy? Jasmine: Haha, yeah! Plus I hate that outfit on Ash Sona: Oh I know…so wrong for her Jasmine: Exactly!

John has always been very picky about the products he endorses and always speaks about never endorsing a product that he wouldn’t use himself. We’ve always felt like John has always tried to make [...]

We fell in love with this song a long time ago and finally there’s a place to share our love with the rest of the world. The lyrics of “Kabhi Khud Pe” take your feelings and express them in a way that one could never imagine. The music of this song is by Jaidev, who [...]

When Jasmine saw this picture of Ranbir, it inspired this idea to do a post on the various avatars that these Filmistanis don for the brands they represent. As you all must know that most our Filmistanis have been in many advertisements, we thought it would be fun to look at some of the crazy [...]

We don’t remember it too often, to look for pictures of behind the scenes of a movie. It’s strange really, why we don’t because when we see them we get the Anil Kapoor Syndrome. Matlab, we get super excited (thank you Shobhaa ji). Actually, anything remotely related to behind the scenes of a movie takes [...]

Tum jeeyo hazaaron saal, saal ke din hon pachaas hazaar…here’s wishing you a happy birthday! In honor of one of our favorite filmistani fairies, here’s an all out gushathon on why we love Lara Dutta: She is our favorite person on Koffee with Karan’s rapid-fire round. She has this accent, we haven’t heard it before, [...]
