Sorry but crazy analogies occupy my mind as I digest the joke that went so far, it became serious.ĭown with a terrible bout of cold and fever, my only respite comes watching the sparkling new trailer of Luc Besson’s Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets. Just like United States of America picking Donald Trump over Hilary Clinton for President. Imagine an alternate ending where Pooja goes ahead with her sham wedding? Inconceivable, yes? But not before dramatically dumping the doofus groom in a manner that makes daddy proud, ' Main tum jaise ullu ke patthe ke saath kaise shaadi kar sakti hoon?' Within seconds, she realises the dumbness of it all and scoots off to reunite with the love of her life. The man she’s fallen for (Aamir Khan) is no picnic but they’re good for each other. It triggers a last-minute doubt inside Pooja’s impulsive mind. Just before he lets go of her hand, he cannot help but wonder, ‘ Tum aise ullu ke patthe ke saath shaadi kaise kar sakti ho?' Remember the scene in Dil Hai Ki Manta Nahin, one where Anupam Kher is walking his precious, pampered daughter Pooja down the aisle yet appalled at her decision to marry a gold-digging twerp? I don’t know about Pehla Pehla but prophetic? Hell, yes! ' Arre yeh paanch sau ka note toh mera diwala nikal dega,' yelps Rishi on learning he’s to pick the tab (yet again) for the same. ' Itne bade note ka koi chutta nahi dega tereko,' Kader Khan cautions Tabu after she pops up that 500 bill to settle a minor grocery purchase. It’s a fairly humdrum Tuesday until the PM drops the demonetization bomb and all hell breaks loose.Īnd of all the things in the world, it reminds me of this recurring gag in Tabu’s adult debut, Pehla Pehla Pyar.ĭirected by cinematographer Manmohan Singh, this tacky Roman Holiday rip-off stars Tabu as a runaway princess trotting out a Rs 500 note, a substantial sum in 1994, for miniscule payments even as do-gooder Rishi Kapoor pays off her bills. What I did then is grab a dozen clothing pegs, clipped them onto my hair and imagined an anomaly. Except I was too young to even communicate this to my family. When I first watched Subhash Ghai’s Karz, my only takeaway was Simi Garewal taking off her glamorous wig towards the climax to reveal a striking grey mane and the image of Rishi Kapoor getting an electroencephalogram with a whole lot of thingums fastened on a helmet to check if his brain’s functioning properly.īlown away by the technology of the latter, I decided I wanted one as well.

Growing up, I watched a lot of movies and the strangest things caught my attention or inspired me to recreate them in a puerile way. You can never predict what will capture a kid’s imagination. Like requesting for a song from Delhi 6 by cooing like a pigeon. My nephew, yep the same little fella whose on-a-loop obsession for Masoom’s Lakdi Ki Kathi I griped about not too long ago, has discovered cute, curious ways of expressing his wishes. Sukanya Verma cannot claim to be any different.
