Random Trivia Post (Again)

I have not been feeling well due to some reasons, so, I took a few days off from work. I have not been able to write much as well. Hopefully, I will get better soon. 

Ayushmann Khurana and the law of gravity in Dum Laga Ke Haisha and Meri Pyaari Bindu.
There is a lot to love in Band Baaja Baaraat. It shows the Delhi middle-class culture with so much authenticity. Like this broken dressing mirror with old stickers. My home had something like this for a long time.

Mard references in two films of 2018—Stree and Mard Ko Dard Nahi Hota
In the song Khul Kabhi from Haider, the person calls himself the sky and calls his lover the earth. Usually, it is the other way where the lover is on a higher pedestal (as often compared with the moon).
In Wake Up Sid, Sid (Ranbir Kapoor) is an Arsenal fan, while in Band Baaja Baaraat, Bittoo (Ranveer Singh) is a Liverpool fan.
The same phrase Imaandari ka ghamand in Newton and Raid
In Talaash, Roshni is reading Pride and Prejudice. 
Mood board: Rani Mukerji reading in the movies. 
In Ishqiya, the cylinders play an important part in the climax. Vidya Balan's character Krishna is also dressed in the colors of the cylinder (red and green) as if she is also waiting to explode. She can be seen near the cylinders. 
In Dil Chahta Hai, Akash makes fun of Shalini as she is too invested in romantic films. He ridicules the premise of romantic movies and says, “Bhai, in love stories ke liye to bahut dimaag chahiye, vo yahan baithi aasun bahan rahi hai, vo vahan baitha aahen bhar raha hai.” Ironically, it is Aakash who scoffed at the predicament of lovelorn characters undergoes the exact same state later in the film. And, funnily, he would be the one crying for his love and Shalini is the one who is sighing as seen in the song Tanhayee.
Finally, I tried to make a video. Here is a tiny mash-up of Safar from Jab Harry met Sejal and Tanhayee from Dil Chahta Hai.  
Dialogue of the Day:
"Aur aaj, is baat ka bhi yakeen ho gaya, ki hamari filmon ki tarah humari zindagi mein bhi end mein sab theek ho jaata hai.Happys  Endings. Aur agar, aur agar theek na ho to woh the end nahin hai dosto, picture abhi baaki hai."
—Om, Om Shanti Om
