i cannot stop thinking about the alcohol world

[ofsrkajol]

Movie idea:

Sort of modern day Shravan Kumar inspired, but not the son instead the daughter in law.

The story is about a woman, Maya Saxena. Maya is in her late 30s/early 40s. She's an event manager by profession and lives with her in laws and a son named Krish. Maya and her husband had parted ways due to differences decades ago. He wanted to chase his dreams of becoming this big shot international photographer and she chose her (his) family.

Movie begins with scenes from Maya's home. How she's taking care of her in laws, Prabhakar and Nandini Saxena, in the morning- serving breakfast to one while reminding the other of his medications- and bugging her teenage son who's almost late for college as usual. We move onto Maya finally leaving the house for work.

The first half of the movie is spent in learning about Maya and her life and career and how she's accomplished both. We learn she doesn't like to talk about her husband even though she carries his last name, Saxena. One day at dinner things get a little emotional and Prabhakar and Nandini ask Maya take them to visit their son in London. She is hesitant at first but they ask her to take it as their last wish. She finally agrees.

What Maya doesn't know is that this was all a scheme by Krish and his grandparents. He had seen his mother suffering alone for a long time, he was always in contact with his dad and knew he hasn't gotten together with anyone else in all those years as well. He also knows how stubborn they both are.

Maya is anxious the whole time she prepares for the journey and during it. She keeps asking asking Krish if he has informed his father about their visit. Krish confirms several times he has (with his fingers crossed behind his back- something he got from his father). When they arrive at Heathrow, Krish lies through his teeth that his father couldn't make it and has asked them to come to his house directly. Maya is already annoyed that he hasn't changed all these years later and couldn't even come to see his parents.

They take a cab and arrive at the location. Maya knocks on the door- faint music could be heard from somewhere inside the house -she knocks again. Inside the house, a studio is set up, a man is working around some photographs and reels. He finally hears the sharp knock and walks towards the door. The door opens and all the air is knocked out of his lungs when he sees the woman infront of him yelling his name- "Samar-"

When Samar doesn't respond to her rant for a couple of seconds Maya realises he had no idea they were coming. She turns to look at her son and in-laws and it's suddenly a funny moment where they collectively find the grass and the sky very interesting.

-intermission-

Samar seems to finally notice that more people were at his doorstep. It gets emotional as he meets his parents and kid after a really long time. He welcomes them inside. Maya pulls aside Krish to confront him, prabhakar comes to his rescue and tells her it was all her idea and that may be she should give Samar a second chance. Maya tells them the ship has sailed.

After a quick awkward family get together, Maya announces that she's going to stay at the AirBnB she booked for them and that the rest of them are welcome to stay with Samar. After failing with Maya, the three of them succeed in persuading Samar to give his and Maya's relationship a second chance.

Samar visits Maya's place the next morning (Sunday) and offers to show her around the city while they are here- as friends -for old times sake. She reluctantly agrees. [Krish has accompanied his grandparents on the city tour so Maya doesn't have to worry about them.]

Over the course of several days, Samar shows Maya all his favourite places in the city, he has his camera with him and he's capturing the moments he remembers why she was his favourite muse. He notes how much Maya cares for his parents as she calls them every couple of hours to take updates on their whereabouts and reminds them of their medication, how she chastises Krish to look after them. Maya notes Samar has changed a lot, aged, even matured a bit. But he still remembers her favourite drink and her choice of icecream flavour when they enter a icecream parlour once.

Krish had been alternating between staying with his dad and mom over the days although Maya insisted he should stay with Samar since he never got to see him. One night, Maya accepts Samar's dinner invite. They share a meal as one happy family after a long time, Nandini expresses how her family seems complete to her now.

Samar offers to drop Maya at her place. She invites him in and things get a little serious as she starts talking about how life has been since he's left. Samar apologizes for leaving and for not trying to get back when he realised his mistake, for not making the effort stay in contact with her. She apologises too for not trying. Samar asks her if she's willing to give him a chance now. Maya more than agrees to it and one thing leads to another and they end up spending the night together.

The next morning Samar gets a call from a frantic (may be hopeful) Nandini,

"Where are you? You didn't come home the whole night, I was worried. Even Maya isn't picking up her phone-"

"Maa. I'm bringing your son home. We'll be a family again." - it was Maya that spoke on the other end.

Fin.

Epilogue/mid credits: The entire family returns to India very happily.

Kalki 2898 AD thoughts (spoiler-filled and long af)

Ok so.... I watched it in Telugu, and 3D. 3D wasn't that special methinks cz only the huge jaguar jumping scene in the start got me. Nothing much 3D-wise.

Now, watching it in Telugu........... Um... Even the dubbing sounds like wonky Telugu and I didn't like that.

Time for points I liked and didn't like--

Liked:

1. The idea of that world: how Kaasi is the first city and now the last city of this Yuga. Priyanka Dutt really headed a dedicated team. I loved the tarot scene because it reminded me of Godavari and made me want a Shekhar Kammula cameo too👀😭

2. I liked how the Vyjayanti logo took us into the world. And the whole premise it started off on. Love the Pareekshit and Ashwathhama Athah...! Kunjarah premise references

3. Loved how the Shiva Linga Ashwathama is meditating near is most likely The Kaasi Viswanath Lingam

4. The CGI with Mr. Amitabh Bachhan

5. Bujji. Unpop opinion maybe, but I liked Bujji more than Bhairava. Was I the only one who wanted Bujji to be the genderbent preserved consciousness of Bujjigaadu (Bujjigaadu: Made in Chennai reference 🤭)

6. How the flames give way to the bearer of Kalki avataram while just a Yuga before, the sea gave way to Vasudeva - the carrier of Krishna avataram. Nice nice. Probably the thing I liked most about this movie.

7. The cameos (will talk about this later)

8. The scale of the vision.... HATS OFF. I want into that man's head istg. All 3 movies: Yevade Subramanyam, Mahanati and now Kalki 2898 AD are three distinct visions and superb visions. I'd love to even see all the concept art for this movie!!!!

9. Call me silly but APRIL ONE VIDUDALA REUNION!!!! (iykyk)

Didn't like (hyper spoilers ahead):

1. Bhairava's character needs more depth. A LOT OF PEOPLE WILL PROLLY TEASE ME/ DISAGREE WITH ME ON THIS POINT. But he does. He's shown as a selfish mercenary whose aim is to settle in the Complex. (I have dreams like you no really a little less touchy feely. But they mainly happen where it's warm and sunny. On an island that I own tanned and rested and alone surrounded by enormous piles of money). He's got debts all over Kaasi and he uses all his money for things like building Bujji and automobiles and thrusters and stuff. But what makes him tick (other than scratching Bujji who he abandons half the time)? What is he scared of? I feel like it would have worked better if Bhairava didn't go to the Complex at all and was banned from it. It gives his hope to see the Complex a touch of whimsy and desperation.

2. Disha Patani's character. The story just forgets about her after the party song which is the most pointless song of the movie btw. I feel like even Nag Ashwin didn't want it there on first thought.

3. SRI KRISHNA DID NOT REMOVE ASHWATHHAMA'S MANI!!!! It was Arjuna who did it as far as I know. After causing the death of Abhimanyu and fellow warriors and family members by unfairly means, Ashwathama almost faced the wrath of Bheema after being dragged to the Pandavas' tents However, Krishna couldn't let the Pandavas commit a sin to revenge a sin. He said, though Ashwathama caused the death of unarmed unaware Kshatriyas, he himself is a Brahmin by birth and thus killing him would be an unforgivable sin. Therefore, completely cutting his hair and taking his mani would be comparable to death. So it was Arjuna who took out the mani on Sir Krishna's advice. (As far as I read and heard from pravachans since my childhood) I disliked how the story started with this inaccuracy and it took me out of the flow. Or maybe Nag Ashwin wanted to change this part of the story to include the curse and pave the story's base? Dk

4. The fights never stop (not in the good way): Bhairava's first fight was SO. LONG. Actually, Bhairava's every fight was so long. Most unnecessarily so. His fights with Ashwathama go on for so long I actually started wondering why the all powerful giant hadn't killed our hero. I'm mean, I know, but I get annoyed by such drags.

5. Late emotional connect: Mrunal Thakur's character dying didn't even pinch. Because I had no emotional connect to even feel the horror of what had happened. But yes, I did cry when Rajendra Prasad's character died soon after bcz that meant the death of the one character who spoke the best Telugu in the movie.

6. As I mentioned, I watched the Telugu version and was disappointed by the lack of diction, even in the dubbing!😭

7. The main point: Almost every scene reminded me of a different movie. A lot of people keep saying it's Dune + Star Wars but here, all I've got to mention -> Loki morphing into many Lokis, Sakaar's neck electrocution thingy (EXACT SAME), Troy: Legacy and Aagardian vehicles with the flying vehicles of that 5000 units bounty hunter. Coco wrt to the city's inner infrastructure (resembles the city in the afterlife, except make it sepia tone). Star Wars with the jedi light saber that Bhairava's dad teaches him to use. Bujji = JARVIS without the English politeness. Prince of Persia: sands of time and John Carter wrt the setting and vibes of the outdoor fight sequences. Mariamma's light rope handles??? From Iron man 2 as well as Wonder Woman. When Sumati imagines everyone dead at her feet it gives Tony from Age of Ultron. The Complex looks a lot like the Singing kingdom from The Marvels. There was an episode of Nebula in Marvel's What If? Animated series -> the concept of the complex or dystopia and the bar seems a lot like it.

8. Ashwathama and Karna weren't friends per the Mahabharatam. "Ashwa uncle" keeps calling Karna "sodara" (pure telugu word for brother) and not "mitrama" (pure telugu word for friend/ally) and it sort of irks me. Also, I think Sri Krishna's voice could have been sweeter (the pitch, Krishna could melt mountains with his voice. Here Krishna's voice sounded something like what we could match to Balarama)

Ok done with that.

Now, cameos..... I mean it's a Nag Ashwin movie and I went in expecting cameos after my experience with Mahanati tbh.

Ones I liked: Malvika Nair as Uttara (that was how I had imagined Shakuntala to look like in Shaakuntalam btw), DQ as Captain/Pilot, Brahmi garu as the fed up landlord, Avasarala Srinivas as gambler (missed him in Mahanati), RGV as the food vendor, Rajendra Prasad bcz the man speaks the best Telugu in this movie (as I mentioned before)

Ones I found Meh: Mrunal Thakur as the pregnant lady (only bcz there was no emotional connect, didn't know anything abt her character except that she's pregnant), Faria Abdullah as the showpiece-angel-dancer??, Disha Patani

Ones I wanted to question: Vijay Devarakonda as Arjuna (like........... I feel like Rana would have been the perfect Arjuna despite that opinion originating from his KVJG days. But maybe Tarak? Maybe you could have CGI-ed NTR sr and reminded us of Nartanasala!!) I have nothing against Vijay Devarakonda, but he just didn't fittttt

Overall: a beautiful effort and a mindblowing idea but the lagging screenplay, some music choices and slight misinformation reduces its impact. Liked it and would recommend bcz this is all people would be talking about and you wouldn't want to stay uninformed on a global phenomenon.

Just like how they put the disclaimer ' Don't watch this with kids ' in 18+ movies....

They should put ' Don't watch this with parents ' in Baghban movie

Bhai sahab my mom is giving me the looks *Hnn Tu bhi aisa hi karegi bade hoke* after watching the movie.....Haddd hai!!

Aur ek min....don't you all think baghban movie should be about bad parenting ??

Nahi matlab usme Amitabh bachhan Or hema malini ke 3 bachhe the I guess? Aur ek adopted.....

Bhai sahab teeno paidaish harami nikli...aur sudhra bachha nikla adopted vala...

Isn't it possible ki vo adopted bachha shayad indebted feel kar raha ho ki inhone meri responsibility li to I should be responsible for them too....

Jinko inhone paida kiya, jinki parenting ki vo to teeno hi harami nikle na.....mtlb ek bhi aulaad dhang ki nahi nikli....koi ek to dhang ki nikalti to kehte ki baaki do bachhon ki galti hai..... Par yaha to teeno hi nalayak hain....

Ye baat mummy ke samne boli to chappal padegi 😶‍🌫

What do you all think?

[miserable-individual]

[shut-up-rabert]

Look, I understand that bollywood actors not retiring is shitty, but please, for the love of god, don’t say that they can’t act/are overrated!

Like yeah they are shitty now, but how can you look at SRK saying “pal bhar mein paraya kar diya” in K3G , a scene where his acting legit stole the show from Amitabh-Fucking-Bachhan, and say he cannot act?

How do you look at Akshay Kumar in Bhool Bhulaiya, where he is periodically stealing glances at Vidya Balan to keep an eye on her while he locks Radha up, and say he cannot act when he gave away an important plot point so damn subtly that none of us realised?

How do you look at Aamir Khan in 3 Idiots, playing a clueless idiot, a motherfucking genius and a clown at the same time, pulling it all off with perfection, and think that he cannot act?!

Yes, the likes of Manoj Bajpayee, KK Menon, Nawaz, Pankaj Tripathee were underrated, and yes, most of the actors I mentioned are the ones who became stars during the mass Masala period where being an action hero was more important than knowing acting, but that doesn’t mean they can’t act. If anything, they have proved otherwise by adapting to the changing cinema when they transitioned from 90s to 00s, and pulling off the kind of acting they did.

hi summer, how was your day?

hey aaluuu my day was a lil boring a lil bad and a lil busy too

i rewatched bol bachhan today and i realised it was an actually funny movie with no logic involved whatsoever and i love that. i had some college work to finish so I did that and then I was on a meeting kind of a thing which drained all the energy out of me and kinda made me spiral but I'm okay now. i had two anaars today and I consider that a win

how was yoursss i need details

[iftitah]

rekhaji got me calculating what is it about amitabh bachhan

[claires-audience]

Sometimes all I think about is does Amitabh Bachhan know that “yeh pan bada raswala” song popped off every 2000s kid’s pink barbie phone and is the sole reason why he is a mega star?!?
