One Dress a Day Challenge

July: Blue Redux + Green Redux

I Have Found It (Kandukondain Kandukondain) / Aishwarya Rai as Meenakshi and Tabu as Sowmya

When I first designated the theme for July, I knew I had to include shots from this sequence, probably the most gorgeous riot of blue and green I've ever seen on film. I am including wide shots of most of the scenes to show the costumes of the chorus and extras as well. Note that when the two sisters are onscreen at the same time, the background characters divide themselves up so that those in blue are on Sowmya's side and those in green are on Meenakshi's.

(This is an adaptation of Sense and Sensibility, by the way. Sowmya is the equivalent to Eleanor and Meenakshi is Marianne.)

See the whole sequence here, because it's even more amazing with motion:

Kandukondain Kandukondain (Rajiv Menon, 2000)

[eenadu-varthalu]

Just realized I listen to the songs but I’ve never seen Kandukondain Kandukondain (Priyuralu Pillichindi) in its entirety before, so here are my thoughts watching it? (I’m watching it in Tamil, so dialogues and songs are gonna be referenced in Tamil? Because I know there are some changes in the Telugu version)

*cheers* MAMMOOTTY MAMMOOTTY MAMMOOTTY MAMMOOTTY 😤😤😤

No no Tabu you’re not going to be alone, I promise, if no one I’ll be more than happy to be yours 😭

LMAOOOO HE DID NOT JUST GET TWO CATS MARRIED (this is legit gonna be me. Don’t get married, get everyone around you married)

I— damn this movie really said bisexual awakening (and we’re not even 30 minutes in)

Okay, I’ve never been a huge Ajith person before BUT DAMN HE LOOKS SO GOOD IN THIS MOVIE

Kannamoochchi Yaenada but the duet version with K.J.Yesudas >>>>>>

AISHWARYA RAI IS SO SO SO PRETTY AHHHH

*screams* ENNA SOLLA POIGIRAI ENNA SOLLA POIGIRAI NAYAMAAAA NAYAMAAA??? *concerned roommate noises in the background*

Awwww major bala is in loveeeeeeeeee 🥺🥺🥺

No but his little grin when he can’t say he doesn’t love her 🤌🏽🤌🏽🤌🏽

Whyyyyyyy does Abbas recite poetry like that??? Like the meter is off? (Also Vikram dubbed for him??? That’s cool!)

You say Abbas my mind goes to the harpic ad

This scene just got 100 times better with Hariharan singing Chuttum Vizhi in the background

Honestly mood: I too would walk in the rain like a mad person if I stared at aishwarya Rai for that long

LMAFOOOOO I AM MAJOR BALA, MAJOR BALA IS ME!!!

Meenu: *all romantic* “Kanamma” (means darling or sweetheart)

Major Bala: “ah yes Kannamma, she gives very good massages, your leg will be set in a day”

Srikant: *kisses hand* the cure is some rest and two Bharathiyar poems

Major Bala: *with an amputated leg* “who am I to give advice about injuries? When I jumped off the helicopter at the war…”

Okay Srikanth is a baby and a walking red flag. Like bro it’s okay to make mistakes, why are you so butthurt about it?

And the mom defends him!?!!????

“Orchids are a hybrid. They’ve had an inter caste marriage” BAHAHAH IM DYING

Okay Srikanth’s red flag might’ve just turned orange

THE GRANDPA DIED? Nooooooo. (I’m sorry no one listened to you tatha)

AND THAT IS WHY YOU SHOULDVE LISTENED TO THE OLD MAN

Ohhhhhh is Srikanth bankrupt?????

Mammooty’s acting in this movie is good 👀👀

Awwwwwww I love the montage!!! AND WE GET THE DUET BABY LETS GOOOOO

Nooooooooo she’s no longer principal?? Damn the brother and sister in law are assholes

Yassssss queens berate the sis in law

Tabu is a programmer? WE STAN WOMEN IN STEM

Awwwww Major Bala is so sweet man 😭😭

MADAM YOURE STILL NOT OVER SRIKANTH!? Yeah no his orange flag just turned bright red.

Bahahaha dude I love his plan to get the address

“Kolathur James Bond” 😂

The songs in this movie man *chefs kiss* 🤌🏽

That’s it. I’m starting a Major Bala fan club.

WAIT NO I LOVE HOW THEYRE LOWKEY CALLING OUT HOW SOME ACTORS TAKE OVER THE FILM

Can the mom shut up about the bad luck crap?

Side note: I told my mom I was watching this AND APPARENTLY ITS HER FAVORITE MOVIE????

DAMNNNNNNN HE JUST TRASHED THE TITLE SHE CHOSE????

I feel so bad for Tabu’s character now 😭😭😭😭

NOT HER JOB— oh wait never mind. Raghuvaran is a king

YEAHHHH JAMES BOND BACK ON DUTY

THE BROTHER DIED!?!??!!?? Dude heck yeah!

Ooooooo SRIKANTH??!!!?? Was he ever gonna tell her?

SHE FALLS INTO A GUTTER?

Awwwwwwww Major Bala 😭🥺🥺🥺🥺 YEAH FINALLY MY MANS GETTING RECOGNIZED

HES SO PROUD OF HER

“what do I know about poems? ask me about AK-47s and fertilizers. I am a hi-tech farmer”

HE WANTS AN EXTRA MARTIAL AFFAIR? Srikanth is a walking and glowing red flag

“God handed you over to me saying, I am giving you this green eyed angel, take care of her.” BYE. IM BAWLING MY EYES OUT ITS NOT EVEN FUNNY

“Will you?” “I will” AHHHHHHHH

Oh my god we get to see domestic Major Bala and Meenakshi YESSSSS 😭

🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺

“Flight cancel, program cancel, ticket cancel, we’re gonna have to take the luggage upstairs” MAJOR BALA IS A MOOD

Okie that’s it. I’m done. I actually really like this movie! (Sorry it’s ridiculously long)

[neilperrysme]

उठती है इबादत की खुशबुएं क्यूँ मेरे इश्क़ से

uthti hain ibaadat ki khushbuein,kyun mere ishq se

why does a fragrance of worship arise from my love

जैसे ही मेरे होंठ यह छू लेते है तेरे नाम को

jaise hi mere honth ye chhu lete hai tere naam ko

whenever my lips touch your name

लगे के सजदा किया कहके तुझे शबद के बोल दो

lage ke sajda kiya kehke tujhe shabad ke bol do

i feel like I have bowed down in prayer and uttered the holy words

यह खुदाई छोड़ के फिर आजा तू ज़मीन पे

ye khudai chhodke phir aaja tu zameen pe

forget this divinity now and come back to the ground,

और जा ना कही, तू साथ रह जा मेरे

aur jaa na kahi, tu saath reh jaa mere

and don’t go anywhere, stay here with me

कितने दफे दिल ने कहा, दिल की सुनी कितने दफे

kitne dafe dil ne kaha,dil ki suni kitne dafe

how often my heart has said,and how often I have listened to it

कितने दफे मुझको लगा तेरे साथ उड़ते हुए

kitne dafe mujhko laga tere saath udte hue

how many times did i feel while flying away with you

आसमानी दुकानो से ढूँढ के पिघला दूँ मैं चाँद ये

aasmani dukaano se dhundhke pighla doon main chaand ye

to search for the moon in the celestial shops and melt it like silver

तुम्हारे इन कानों मे पहना भी दूँ बूंदे बना

tumhare inn kaano me pehna bhi doon boonde bana

and turn it into earrings for your ears

फिर यह मैं सोच लूँ समझेगी तू जो मैं ना कहे सका

phir ye main soch loon samjhegi tu,jo mai na keh saka

then perhaps you will understand what I have been unable to say

पर डरता हूँ अभी ना यह तू पूछे कही, क्यूँ लाए हो ये, क्यूँ लाए हो ये... यूँ ही

par darta hoon abhi na yeh tu puche kahi, “kyun laaye ho ye?” “kyun laaye ho ye yoon hi?”

but I am scared now that you might ask,

“why did you bring this?” “oh, you didn’t have to bring these?”

कितने दफे दिल ने कहा, दिल की सुनी कितने दफे?

kitne dafe dil ne kahaan,dil ki suni kitne dafe

how often my heart has said,and how often I have listened to it
