Hey, thanks so much Leena. I so agree with you about Robert Downey Jr. He is a great actor, and it is good that he is getting the credit he deserves. Did you stay in the theaters for the credits? They show a preview of the sequel for Iron Man.

you're welcome nimmi! robert truly deserves all the fame he's getting now. he was just SOO awesome in Iron Man and also so handsome.😳😳 i'm totally obsessed with him now.😆😆

nope.. i left the theatres when the credits started rolling.. never mind, as long as there's a sequel.. more robert and more drooling on my part.😃😆😆 my only complaint is that rachel mcadams should have played the role of pepper potts instead of gwyneth.

anyways, here are some questions from my side just to spice up your MOTW. no one here has asked you much i see.😉

- who's your fav bollywood actor from the golden era? why?

- who's your fav bollywood actress from the golden era? why?

- which one of our current actresses is fit for the title of the queen of bollywood?

- is there one film you watched recently which you enjoyed immensely?

- one film you watched recently which you would rather forget?

- any films you're looking forward to this year?

- deepika or sonam, which of these ladies deserved the best newcomer award more?

- neil or ranbir, who is your fav male newcomer and who is the better actor?

- ranbir/sonam or ranbir/deepika? why?

- did you or did you not like saawariya? why?

- abhishek-aishwarya, akshay-katrina or kunal-konkona? which of one of these couples do you prefer over the rest?

- did madhuri's comeback film impress you? if so, what did you like about Aaja Nachle?

i'm totally obsessed with him now.😆😆 Join the club. LOL!

my only complaint is that rachel mcadams should have played the role of pepper potts instead of gwyneth.

Yeah, I can understand that POV. I like Gwyenth so much as an actress in movies like Proof with Anthony Hopkins. But she comes off as really uptight and rude in real life. Her only redeeming factors are her shoes and dress sense.

- who's your fav bollywood actor from the golden era? why? I would say Balraj Sahni because he looks like an ordinary guy (not a fan of chocolate heroes so much) and he is so natural. You really find him believable when he acts. (When I think of golden age I think 50s, otherwise I would have mentioned Shashi Kapoor because I find him really charming on screen).

- who's your fav bollywood actress from the golden era? why? Tie here for me between Nutan and Nargis. Nutan was someone, who really was so beautiful and had such an enigmatic screen presence. Also I really like how she communicated with her eyes. Nargis was really versatile. I loved how she could be the playful girl with the crooked smile in Awaara to the lovesick girl in Barsaat to the endless sufferer in Mother India.

- which one of our current actresses is fit for the title of the queen of bollywood?This is a very difficult question, but I think that there is no one dominant person right now like there was with Sridevi and Madhuri back in the day. So here is my answer that my favorite actress to watch right now is Konkona but whose films I am looking most forward to are Ash (though I think Rani is the better actress; please stop limiting yourself to Yashraj).

- is there one film you watched recently which you enjoyed immensely?

Pillow Talk and saw Lagaan again today (only reinforcing why I loved it)

- one film you watched recently which you would rather forget?

One Two Three🤢

- any films you're looking forward to this year?

Dilli 6, Bachna Ae Haseeno, JTYJN, Quick Gun Murugan, Shantaram (all I can think of as of now)

- deepika or sonam, which of these ladies deserved the best newcomer award more?

Sonam really had a harder role to enact. Deepika, I feel is prettier but she has still has to prove that she can act in my book. She did not have much to do in OSO.

- neil or ranbir, who is your fav male newcomer and who is the better actor?

To both questions, Neil.

- ranbir/sonam or ranbir/deepika? why?

Ranbir-Deepika seem to have more chemistry as far as off-screen goes. Ranbir-Sonam just seemed cute to me. I also like how Ranbir-Deepika look in the promo of Bachna Ae Haseeno.

- did you or did you not like saawariya? why?

I liked it but did not love it. It was well shot with good music and I liked Sonam's role in it particularly the depth she showed in her acting. Everyone actually did a great acting. The story just did not have much going for it. It could have been better edited with a tighter script.😊

- abhishek-aishwarya, akshay-katrina or kunal-konkona? which of one of these couples do you prefer over the rest?

Abhi-Ash based on Guru alone (not really fair to others cause they have not been in a Mani Ratnam film where the chemistry is a given though)😆😆😆

- did madhuri's comeback film impress you? if so, what did you like about Aaja Nachle?

I liked it but was not impressed it. Madhuri just lit up the screen with her smile and her dancing. She really did a good job. All of the supporting players did a great job too. I really feel people had too high of expectations. The thing is I don't think from the box office aspect people are ready for a female superstar just carrying the whole film by itself. If it was a male superstar in Madhuri's place and their comeback, I think there would have been a reasonable difference. Look at the openings SRK and Akshay (i.e. Main Hoon Na, Humko Deewana Kar Gaye) get in their films when they are main players and the rest are the supporting cast. It is not like the movies are particularly awesome all the time, but it is just people are not going to and have that same heroine worship for Aaja Nachle, I think. Maybe I am completely off base here, but I really liked the film and thought it was quite enjoyable. Really liked Kunal and Konkona here too.
