Some crack discussions about this scene XD

(that I think y'all will find fun)

So we know this scene has been (jokingly)compared to marriage before right? Upon further reflections..this scene is hilariously reminiscent of how wedding/and romance tropes go in my culture..

@hermanoga and I had a (crack)discussion about this let me elaborate....

Poor boy and rich girl trope

There's a popular het romance trope in our regional cinema culture ....poor but hardworking and sincere boy falls in love with a rich girl(depending on the story,she is either very haughty, or extremely kind and generous , we'll go with the latter)...the boy marries the girl and sordidly pleads her to make amends with his humble little home,as the girl is accustomed to luxury, the boy is concerned for her comforts. The girl, being a kind lady and hopelessly in love with the boy coyly accepts his proposal.

The conversation goes something like

"I can't offer you much luxuries, would you still to accompany me?"

"with you, I would even go half-hungry"(pardon my awkward translation) XD

This scene is hilariously reminds me of CXS telling LG how he can't give much to LG, and LG not batting an eye to it(while it's hinted he comes from a rich household). Trust me it's way hilarious as a Bengali because of how much it's reminiscent of this specific trope.

Living in your In-laws house

In Bengali culture, we live with our family. Therefore, after marriage, one spouse leaves their home to live with their spouse and in-laws(that one mostly being the wife). And guess who leaves his home to live with his bestie?(I'm not trying to enforce gender roles on them it's just funny)

My friend said "lu Guang one day just moved to his sosurbari(in-laws house) and never left"

Lmaaaoooo

"I take responsibility of your food and clothing"

Basically, at the third day of a Bengali wedding, the groom takes a decorated plate of food and new clothes and gives it to the bride and says: "henceforth I take responsibility of your food and clothing(implied:all expenses)"(yeah gender roles I know I know) while the bride has to cook for the whole family and feed them for the first time in her new home that day.

Basically, about shiguang, I was talking about how it's so rare and strange that one would go so far to live with their friend to help them pay their debt(of ten years! At that) ((I know there's a bigger reason too let me yap))

To which my friend responded "yeah basically "bhat kaporer daitto nichhe(he is taking responsibility of him→alluding to the ceremony I explained above)"

Also, technically, CXS also took Lu Guang's "bhat kaporer daitto" since he literally cooks him meals and gave him clothes!

Lmao

So that was a fun yapping we had about this scene that sounds way funnier knowing the context...which I thought would be a waste not to share with you all.

Note: I'm not trying to enforce gender roles on them.

It's just so funny

Also, as an aside: Our language has gender neutral third person pronouns;) so the discussion actually didn't sound like gender rolely at all...

Hii!! Just wanted to let you know I very much appreciate your posts about bengali culture and mythology :)

Btw, what other bengali books do you read? I'm big fan of Sukumar Ray (the whole Ray family honestly>>), i also love feluda among other things. I'd love to discuss bengali literature with you <3

First of all thank you so muchh :D

I have always been a fan of literature and mythology so I try to dig up as much as I can hehe

I have read some Chhoto Golpo by Rabindranath Thakur, he's my absolute favourite, my Gurudev. I have the Golpo Guchho, though I haven't complete read all of them till now, I plan to do very soon. Poems I've read a lot I guess I forgot, I know the story of Chokher Bali through movies and stuff, mom won't buy me that now cause I am too young for that she says. I LOVE LOVE LOVE rabindrasangeet trust me.

I have the Raj Kahini by Abanindranath Thakur in my to read list actually, I will read that once I complete the novel series I am reading currently. Cannot forget Khirer Putul, it was actually what my school did in my class 6th fest that was too memorable for me...

Other than that and Abol Tabol – I LITERALLY HAD ALL THE POEMS MEMORIZED AS A TODDLER – till now my bengali literature reach is not very much actually sadly... Though I do keep all my old school books and they have some great poems and stories in them.

But to ACTUALLY read, sadly I would have to get more books, which I plan to do very soon..

I have read the Chander Pahar by Bibhutibhushan Bandyopadhyay (the movie was bad but I did enjoy it as a child) and Aranyak I've only read a bit, it was in my school textbook I loved that and will read the entire thing oneday. but Pather Panchali I've read a bit, in a book called Aam Aatir Bhepu, – it was it also in my school syllabus – though I'd love to read someday, I have watched the movies OFCOURSE.

I have read some of Upendra Kishore Ray Choudhary too, like Banor Rajputro or Tuntunir Golpo. I read his Cheleder Ramayan too (that was the first ever Ramayan I ever read). Gupi Gayen Bagha Bayen, I've only watched the movies.

AND DON'T GET ME STARTED ON PANDOB GOYENDA. MY GOD I LOVE THAT SO MUCH. Bilu was my first ever crush ngl lol.. I still love him.

But sadly I haven't read any of them, including Feluda and Byomkesh Bakshi. My knowledge in them only goes till the movies and shows. I watched those ssoftoons animation Pandob Goyenda and Gopal Bhar – ANOTHER THING I ABSOLUTELY ADORE – I still have those DVDS but I broke my laptop (don't ask me but it was funny T_T) so I have to wait now till I can watch them again.

And other than that, I am an ABSOLUTE SUCKER for Thakumar Jhuli, like I love them so much. I can talk about them for hours.

I would love it, if you have some good suggestions for what I should read.

And I would love it even more to be able to talk to someone about Bengali literature and stuff.. even mythology because I am a sucker for that too lol..

The Inhumans and Other Stories: A Selection of Bengali Science Fiction edited and translated by Bodhisattva Chattopadhyay brings to print a previously untranslated, iconic Bengali sci fi novella from 1935: The Inhumans by Hemendrakumar Roy, a satire that has never gone out of print in its original language but has never been translated despite its well-earned place in the Radium Age of science fiction. Chattopadhyay adds three other early short stories as a bonus. Together, we get a collection of excellent classic sci fi with a non-Western perspective.

The Inhumans is a strange novella, featuring some classics of the early sci fi genre—story within a story, secrets in the predatory jungles of Africa, science's potential to over-reach—but with a uniquely anti-colonial undertone. The story is at turns absurd, funny, and scary as our narrator comes face-to-face with a secret civilization of "advanced" human beings hidden in the African wilderness. As for the short stories, they're a wonderful mix of myth and science, magic and sci fi, that I really enjoyed. Fans of classic, early sci fi will enjoy this, but so will most sci fi readers, and I'm glad that more classics that aren't originally in English are finally becoming more widespread and accessible.

Now the truth is out about Krow I can send these!

Kicking myself for walking past clues and dismissing my hunch. I’d even written up stuff about snake worship in India to explore the possibility of Krow being associated with an animal in a religious/mystical way (I forget if I actually sent it).

And I suggested a naga Halloween costume last year! 

In my coffee shop story (Double Shot) Gabby said she’d sooner trust a snake than Krow?

Also in my story about Vetala!Krow… him being held at bay by the hypnotic playing of a temple flute? Like a snake charmer? *wheeze*

(Kicking myself for not using the Bengali version of the word - kôruṇa.)

Also the monster/mythical creature that I thought Vetala!Krow kind of suited was called the Nagaraja.

From Vampire the Masquerade/White Wolf, this is a clan of vampires with Indian lore that are cursed to eat flesh rather than the traditional blood. (I haven’t played that game but thought this was cool.)

Yes, yes we can discuss.

You had gotten it pretty much right on the money a number of times, but I was trying to be coy and not give it away too soon lol.

Everything you note here in this ask, ye, I remember. Especially the line of "Gabby would rather trust a snake than Krow: I was like "...Krowspiracy knows. They HAVE to. Aaaaaaa" lmao.

When you were straying from the Naga I was like "nooooo Krowspiracy you have it right I just don't wanna reveal it yet!"

Nagarjuna, I don't know this I'll have to research. O:

Oh that's funny. I'm actually more familiar with White Wolfs OTHER vampire game, Vampire the Requiem. For Vetela!Krow I was mainly trying to scrounge up anything I could on like... vampiric creatures found in Indian folklore, and I swear I read somewhere Vetela (or another being I drew inspiration from?) consumed flesh too, so added that for Vetela!Krow.

Back when I binged glee in covid I used to bother my then friend, now ex about all my glee opinions and stuff and we somehow made this running joke that sebastian was a brown boy because why else would someone have so little chill about a school extracurricular right?

It started as a joke, and it's little more than crack even now but the thought of a biracial seb (sebu as we called him) is still funny and it endeared him to me. Through him we'd go on to make fantastical stories about the universe in which he was half brown. I don't know if I need to mention I'm brown too but yeah

The lore went as follows Sebastian's father Arshad Smythe was a second generation south asian immigrant who studied law in France where he met Mrs. Smythe.

we made him the most run of the mill brown dad imaginable and we loved him so much because of it , he was obviously just based on our fathers and uncles and brothers. The people we loved, who loved us in return, the people whose dad jokes and overbearing old timer antics we rolled our eyes at.

Mr and Mrs Smythe alternated living between France and Ohio, where Mr. Smythes childhood home was. It was a dilapidated suburban duplex complete with ugly beige carpeting. But Mr. Smythe just couldn't bear to part with it so he never sold the house or moved out. He would buy his son the best cars and enroll him in the best schools. He'd spend on everything else but he just couldn't change anything about the house his mother had lived in.

Sebastian and his mother understood. She had been important to them too. Samantha Smythe remembered all the times she sat on the floor of this house so the older woman could rub coconut oil into her hair. Sebastian remembered the spicy pickles she cooked in her kitchen, how good they tasted. So they understood.

Burt Hummel was an old friend of Mr. Smythes. He'd babysit Sebastian every once in a while, Santana too. So Kurt, Sebastian and Santana were all friends that got upto fun shenanigans in this world.

Sebastian had a cat called Maribelle, who scratched and bit everyone except for their trio and Mr. Smythe, she was also a mafia boss and an interdimensional/ divine immortal being who had a life of crime on the weekends. He had found her as a stray and begged his dad to let him keep keep her. He did albeit begrudgingly as all dads do, and then quickly became best friends with her as all dads do. I drew cartoons of Kurt and Sebastian as preteens chilling on beach chairs with sunglasses on, in the front yard of Sebastian's grandma's house. Mr Smythe , a portly gentleman with a half bald head with borders of dark hair lining the sides, wearing thick framed glasses would yell at them about their homework to which they'd reply "It's Sunbathe Saturday, Dad!"

Mr Smythe would then grumble and pick up Maribelle who had been in the process of burying a man, unbeknownst to him.

We had so many really specific just brown people things jokes about Sebastian, like him putting 'manja', a type of liquid glass used in competitive kite racing in South Asia in the rock salt slushie. Just him in general being really excited about sharp drinks after his brown cousin back in his home country show him the ropes.

Him being the kind of typical annoying uncultured highschool boy, ' kamla', who hung around coffee shops all day.

Him challenging his father to a game of cards at age eleven by making Mr. Smythe promise if he won he would have to love him unconditionally. Just as he pulled out the last ace he yelled out 'I'm gay but you love unconditionally no take backs!" And ran up the stairs yelling "no take backs!" As santana and kurt blocked mr smythes entrance to the stairway by popping ill timed party poppers.

If Seb ever got into any scuffles with them during play time he'd fire off a flurry of mixed French and Bengali curse causing Kurtana to exchange confused glances like, did you get any of that ?

His early s3 backstory was literally Mr Smythe being a little bit of a tiger parent. But then when he breaks down because of the Dave thing his dad makes amends saying "I want you to be the best at everything seb, and that includes being a person."

The scandals fix it in this universe was Maribelle scratching Blaines eyes out when she overhears about it from kurt and seb discussing it.

I figured later that Mr Smythe must have taken his wife's name because it's hardly a brown name even in Christian circles, to which my ex had replied you only realised now?

There's really no words in English to properly translate the jokes and their cultural significance to us. Parts of brown seb universe bled into my shitposts and fics but I could never part with him fully. Because the world wasn't ready for or interested in him. Since then I've graduated college, I've lost access to the Instagram account we used to text about this world in, and I've lost my ex and I've lost that time in my life, Brown Seb only exists in my memory now. So now maybe it's time to give him to the world so he exists outside of it too. Idk if there are Desi gleeks out there who get the jokes, but til then this post is just for me to remember

[sociopathicghost]

Saw my cousin posting a story where she was pouting, and called her a shuor (pig) and goru (cow) because pouting in selfies/pictures should be banned.

#bengali slangs are so funny at times

[strawberrytalia]

ask game! 🥰💚

top 5 foods? (hard lmao)

top 5 non DC characters?

OOOH LETS GOOOOO

Top 5 foods!

Thai red curry is such a comfort food for me omg. I mean I love Thai food in general (esp shrimp Tom Yum Soup) because it’s like not TOO spicy for my whitewashed Bengali ass, but it’s sooooo good and flavorful

Caprese Salad, or even caprese sandwiches. Summer vibes iykyk, and omg I love basil. Pesto is also my fav condiment (if it counts) so all of that combined is 💯

Aloo samosas! Esp when my grandma makes them homemade. We use flour + water to make the dough, then fill it with spiced potatoes and fry them. Not the healthiest lmao but def my fav cultural food!

Shawarma!!! SUCH a comfort food omg, I have so many good memories tied with it, and also it’s an easy food solution bc it’s always halal lol

Tteokbokki (korean rice cakes)!! I love Korean food, and this is 100x better than ramen I promise 😫 Its SO GOOD

Top 5 non-dc characters!!

1. AANG

HE MEANS EVERYTHING TO ME!!!! 🥺 I love him so so so much!!!! He’s always been my fave in ATLA, he’s so sweet and kind and GOOD, he’s not perfect but he tries his best and he lost everything and he’s been robbed of his loved ones and culture but he doesn’t give up GRAHHHH

2. TOHRU

MY ANGEL. MY DARLING. MY BABY TOHRU. I love her so much!!! I’m not exaggerating when I say Tohru improved my mental health more than therapy ever could. She makes me want to be a better person lol and i know that sounds crazy but fruits basket fans know what I mean 😭🫶 Heartwrenching in the best way possible. She’s so selfless and compassionate.

3. DIANE

UGH Diane is so relatable and real, and she’s probably the fictional character i’m most similar to. I loved her story in the show so much, and I really love how 3-dimensional she feels.

4. Billy Butcher

Okay no more nice characters lmao, we’re going to the opposite of the spectrum. THIS MAN IS SO FUCKED UP 😭😭😭 but he was also my favorite part of The Boys fr. I find him interesting in like a social experiment way lmfao. He’s also so funny in the worst way, and I really love the chaotic element he drives into the show, even if it ends up horribly.

5. Aragorn

I know what you’re thinking, Zaina why are there two white men in your top 5 😭 I was trying to think of a good mix of media or else it would be all anime. Anyways…I love pr much everybody in LoTR, but he’s special to me and he always has been.

[getmemymicroscope]

This is a gripe I've had for a while (thank you, DCEU), but like, this oversharing of stuff in trailers is fucking annoying (looking at you, too, Singham Again). Like, I'm guessing some of it has to do with 'top billing' casts - they're like "I'm in the movie, I want people to know," so you have to put them in the trailers (Tiger Shroff in Singham Again, for example; Wonder Woman in BvS), but like - just don't! Let the audience be shocked when it happens in the movie (like in No Way Home, for example, or even The Flash's near-the-end montage of characters, or Deadpool v/s Wolverine). Specifically, in this case, we really didn't need to know Madhuri was in the movie - would've been a nice surprise when you're watching. Instead, we already know, and there's nothing awaiting you.

Sure, there's a decent twist at the end (though, honestly, it would've been even better if it was Tripti's character that had been reincarnated), but still, surprise is gone.

There were moments where the movie felt very much like a rehashing of Housefull 4 (and Kakuda?, and even Rocky Aur Rani), and the story dragged on a bit too long. The 3 pandits (Sanjay Mishra, Rajpal Yadav, Ashwini Kalsekar) were momentarily hilarious, and seeing Rajpal again after the first movie was fun (again, for a moment), but that novelty wore off quick when they immediately became the target of Kartik's character and just as quickly went from "ooh, fun" to "oh, they're immediately being taken advantage of and treated as servants." And, even as the background comedy track, it falls very flat - and extends on way too long (Rajpal's re-entrance at the end - clearly done for the Jawaan jokes - and the scene with the choking are just cherries on top of this "too long, not funny enough" cake).

The Vidya/Madhuri angle isn't played long enough, the Tripti angle is played too much (she really isn't doing much, and even her desire to just sell the place is immediately introduced in an almost 'greedy' light - though, I guess, after watching the movie you realize they're all just sick of poverty - and then promptly forgotten). Kartik gets a chance to play a bit and does that relatively well, but he is again hampered down by the fact that the movie just goes too long and overdoes everything (the number of times we have to see him drive around and return back, and then see the same thing with the pandits, is excessive; so too is his constantly fainting friend).

They do a good job (ish) with the twist, especially with our preconceived notions going in (after seeing Vidya in the 1st movie, and Madhuri's appearance in the trailer), but, again, I think given everyone's role, it might've been a nicer twist if they'd somehow made it be Tripti (this may have been too similar to the second movie, but honestly, I don't remember that movie much at all at this point, so I have no idea what the twist was there). I just think Bollywood's obsession with stories that hinge on "guy likes to dance = bad" is becoming a bit much.

All said - a bit long, but not bad otherwise. Would've liked to see some more of Madhuri and Vidya getting to do things, but I guess if you're trying to sell them as ghosts out for revenge, a lot of it does have to be them sorta just appearing out of the blue and being all mysterious (aka, not there). Will be interesting to see where they go with part 4, though at this point, it clearly feels like beyond being a ghost story (with a Bengali ghost?) and featuring Ami Je Tomar and the Bhool Bhulaiyaa title track, there will be no storyline connection between any of the movies (sad). Just one of the many Bollywood 'spiritual sequels' that look to cash in on the name (Race 3, Raaz movies, Hate Story movies, etc.).

What Makes These Bengali Heroes So Brave?

Learn about the Bengali language heroes who made the ultimate sacrifice for their country in this fascinating video. Discover the stories of bravery and courage that have shaped history! You know, it’s funny how language can spark such intense emotions. I was scrolling through the news the other day and came across this incident in the Kolkata Metro. A woman confronted a fellow passenger for speaking in Bangla instead of Hindi, claiming, “You’re not in Bangladesh!” It got me thinking about how we often tie language to identity, culture, and even belonging. Here’s the thing: language is a bridge, not a barrier. It connects us, yet it can also divide us if we let it. Yes, Hindi is widely spoken in India, but so are countless regional languages. Each one tells a story, carries history, and reflects the rich tapestry of our nation. So, why do we feel the need to police language? Shouldn’t we celebrate our diversity instead? Let’s embrace our differences and create a space where everyone feels welcome to express themselves, no matter the language.

[thekrows-nest]

I just thought of something. Krow doesn't know that he's also Bengali, but apparently Bengali people can somewhat tend to be shorter and maybe rounder? This isn't meant to racially stereotype or fetishize and may not be true. Just anecdotally some people think there is a tendency in some regions to be a little shorter.

So if this is at all credible... Krow could have inherited his height and body type from his father's side and might even somewhat resemble him despite possibly never meeting/not seeing each other since Krow was a baby.

Krow's heritage was hidden/taken from him but it's in his bones. He carries his dad and his history with him. Maybe Krow even sees his dad in the mirror without knowing it.

I'm also wondering about other traits... They could just be for fun but it makes me wonder if the possibly supernatural glowing eyes, the pointed teeth and the yandere nature came from somewhere. 🧐

On the subject of the supernatural, I have some very specific Vampire Krow god/mantra guesses for when you have enough time to read it.

That all is very relevant too. The 64 arts (Kalā) and Hindu religious observances look to be a huge part of Indian culture, and Krow practices a fair few of them unconsciously. Despite what happened who he is never left him.

Ooh that is true. Krow would not be aware of his Bengali heritage either. Fun fact, I did not know that about Bengali people. After reading this ask I did a quick look around the internet, and general consensus is that, on average, Bengali people are amongst the shortest people in the world. How fitting for Krow then to be rather small.

Now you saying that about his father, I am now thinking (and applying it to canon) of him looking in the mirror, perhaps pulling his hair back or just imagining it shorter, if he is looking at a younger image of his father in the mirror or not.

Funny you say how he carries his heritage in his bones. I'll give a little crumb about how much that sentence carries weight in more ways than most of you realize. :3c

I will not confirm or deny about the eyes, the teeth, the yandere nature either being for fun or coming specifically from somewhere. I'll give another crumb; I have my reasons for why Krow has these traits. The question is: did I put them in just for my own amusement? Or did I put them in for specific reasoning? Story/character reasons? More details may be revealed in the future.

(I am always down to read your theories Krowspiracy. Always.)
