Fashion Magazines in Kabhi Khushi Khabie Gham (2001)

Click here for more fashion magazine identifications.

Kabhi Khushi Khabie Gham (2001) is a cult Hindi movie (Hindi, not Indie, enunciate the H). If you haven't watched it yet, run!

One of the main characters, Pooja, is a university student who is really, really, really into fashion. It makes sense, then, that when she first appears on the screen, she is literally surrounded by fashion magazines.

Next to her lay 8 magazines! All from a variety of publications and not even a duplicate. I'm impressed! Tracking them all down took me a good 2 hours, tho...

Some parameters:

The movie was shot starting on 16 October 2000 and was released in India on 14 December 2001.

The movie is set in both India and the UK, with this scene, in particular, being set in London so I'm assuming most of the magazines will be UK edition.

Ok, now we are ready to start.

From the left:

Harpers & Queen - May 2001

Cover model: Yasmin Le Bon (source1, source2)

This is not, in fact, an Harper's Bazaar issue, because Harper's Bazaar UK didn't exist at the time! According to Wikipedia: "In November 1970, New York City-based Hearst Communications amalgamated it with Queen magazine (which dated from 1862) to form Harpers & Queen. [...] In March 2006, it was renamed Harper's Bazaar, bringing it in line with its international sister titles."

Cosmopolitan UK - June 2001

Cover Model: Alison Meisonne (source)

Harpers & Queen - March 2001

Cover model: Sarah Jessica Parker

Tatler - August 1998

Cover model: Jemima Khan

Elle US - June 2001

You can find more info on the features of this issue on The Fashion Spot. (I think I've found my people)

Vogue UK - June 1998

Cover model: Kate Moss (source)

Harpers & Queen - April 2001

Cover model: Rachel Weisz (source)

Vogue UK - April 2001

Cover Model: Gisele Bundchen (source)

.

In case you need a recap:

Harpers & Queen - May 2001

Cosmopolitan UK - June 2001

Harpers & Queen - March 2001

Tatler - August 1998

Elle US - June 2001

Vogue UK - June 1998

Harpers & Queen - April 2001

Vogue UK - April 2001

This tells us that this scene was shot during of after June 2001.

Most of the magazines are from around that time, but two of them are from 3 years before, 1998! I wonder how they found them? It's not like you can waltz in any store and get 3 years old fashion magazines!

And most importantly, a US edition of Elle?? Of the issue of that same month? How?? They didn't shoot in the US at all!

Manav Gangwani then switched to bright blood red and managed to take the bling up to full volume with columnar dresses and extra puffed-out lehengas. Laser cut, petal-like peplums, and three-dimensional ruffles displayed Manav's skill for texture. Daring, bold, and dramatic, this was not a show for the faint of heart.

OOOH WHAT'S THE POP CULTURE LIKE?? Any common references?? ALSO TELL ME ABOUT THE MUSIC WORLD!! I'm very curious.

Well, to get the background, we need to understand what we brought with us. Sailor moon, Marvin the Martian, star trek, wolf 359, star wars everything space sci-fi or fantasy! We wrote about this place and now we're in it!

And as for what we found: glass domes, blue suns, vast desserts, a mountain so tall it breaks the atmosphere, broken down robots, sand storms, and two moons that will eventually drift away from and crash into us. But we have four million years before that happens, don't we? So let's enjoy the view

The music is wild: a thousand genres, some as old as Chinese opera, some as new as astruca pop. It's all new wave if you think about it, a new era of humanity. There's a lot of synth.

Astruca pop is founded on the concept of 'we are in love with the stars, and we sing about it' upbeat pop, things like 'messages from the stars' and the likes. Themes of celestial bodies, relationships, and insane amounts of synth.

Other genres are not yet named. I've mainly been focusing on the fashion if I'm honest. But here's another space themed one: it has a lot of vocalisations, wacky instruments, and lyrics about how in the vast expanse of space we are alone. Kind of outdated since we discovered aliens. Like... imagine listening to some song about how we are unique in our sentience meanwhile your nextdoor neighbour is a 7'1, six armed alien, from a planet in the neighboring solar system. Embarrassing.

As for media, there's a show called 'mandy mystery' it's a teen girl solves mysteries type show. Similar to Sally Bollywood. Does anyone remember that? Idk. There's also one called 'star racers' you're getting the star theme right. It's like five guys and they all have names like 'red moon' and 'black saturn' cuz. It's space themed who cares. They're drag racers. They wear funny little outfits and pose on top of cars. A lot of these were made up for so I could design group Halloween costumes for the gang. There's probably more shows than that. I just haven't thought of them yet.

Sports is really popular too, low gravity leads to muscle atrophy so you gotta stay active, (god ain't it awful) so there's lots of parks, sports places, etc. So fun ways of getting around are also popular, roller skating, cycling, skate board, they're going places on wheels. Absolutely insane.

And fashion magazines! There's tons, mostly for nouveau futurism, retro futurism, stellar dessert, and random other shit that I haven't named it. They like cowboys too. Astral outback my beloved. There's also thing like 'elegano frill' which is based around black undergarments and white lace/chiffon things, focused on unique silhouettes and fancy hairstyles, it's seen at a lot of weddings. Its counterpart, jangle frill, is much less refined. Seen at concerts, there's the black undergarments again, but this time the veil things are less layers, and are lined with tassels! The hair is much more droopy and more colours! The songs performed are generally made with the jangle of the audience in mind, completing the song.

That's pretty much all I got. Theres a musician called 'vallicent' I'm pretty sure. One called Xiro. Various others.

Book in Main Hoon Na

Click here for more books and fashion magazine identifications.

Main Hoon Na (2004) is a fantastic Hindi movie in which Shah Rukh Khan plays a socially awkward super soldier.

During the titular song "Main Hoon Na", Sanjana (Amrita Rao) is seen reading a book in the university library.

The book is "The Brontës and their world", by Phyllis Bentley, a biography of the Brontë sisters first published in 1969.

While this is a perfect book to find in a university library (50 years out of date and covered by cellophane), why was Sanjana reading a book on English literature? Every single character in the movie attended STEM classes!

bestie you do not realize how much of a life saver your blog is ive been needing a desi fashion blog for so long that actually links their sources i am, rotating your blog in my mind btw

You are honestly so sweet! It means so much to me as a solo owner of this blog (despite having a full-time job). It saves so much time in eliminating requests for specific clothes/designers. This blog used to be a main source for magazine scans and editorials for the OG Bollywood fandom back in 2013 and on (I sound old.....wow, that's how long I've been here.....lol)
