At this stage in your career, do you appreciate the rivalry more against Rafa?

#fedal #roger federer #rafael nadal #tennis #interview: indian wells 2019 #match: miami 2004 #let's take a trip down memory lane shall we #rafa was indeed extremely cute #can't blame rog for taking one look at him and falling in love #also: let's not forget that before this match they had already played doubles against each other #rafa won and what did roger do?#invite rafa to his box to watch one of his matches bc of course #anyway look at rafa's smile after he takes off his headband #plus the hair tuck before the handshake #he went back to being all shy in 0.2 secs after that win #i love them and miss them so much

Okay but the life of the legendary Shovana Narayan altered my brain chemistry, a superb academic record hold, a maestro in kathak and then also a civil services officer with a long distance marriage and motherhood

If she could do this in the 50s and 60s, wtf is stopping me from doing so, when I have never wanted just one thing to define me

#samridhi speaks #also to my ex who told me things likw your relationship will never work out with him because of different life goals #lol this woman married a diplomat and they managed a long distance marriage too #her husband paved doors foe collabs with the West with Indian dance back then #this is the kind of love I want sure physical intimacy is needed and what not but God I am never giving up all of this to marry #and I still remember him saying you give those soft mothet vibes who is a part time mother and dancer #bye I will girlboss all my life and be all right in front of guys like some of my cousins who think we girls his sisters will just marry #and settle down amd to my ex too for thinking I will be easy and live out a simplw life #fuck everything the only understanding men in my life have been my father brother and my boyfriend at this point #weird that he never grew up around sisters but still is so aware and understanding of women and our desire for dreams #lol I am ranting but yes I have an exam in 6 hours my sleep got over by 2.30 #and then I was googling gpat niper prep #yeah it's first sem but I keep wanting to updatw on the info #and God knows what struck me to google dancers randomly who were into civil service academia and still being legends in the arts #then shovana narayan came up

Someone (also) said they'd rather die then go to india. And they did the age old ’murican thing of saying ’oh ive seen those videos of their toenails in food’.

Abey chutiye. Throwback to when i went to ’murica there were atleast 6 times i found some weird ass shit in my food bought from actual RESTRAUNTS. But you don't see me judging all of murica with that. And I've spent like all my life in india and maybe once i might have found something weird in my street food there.

Tho anyway theek hi hain mat hi aao bohot crowded ho rakhi h jaga kyuki tum chutiyo ko toh bas india ke naam par delhi mumbai aur UP bihar ka koi chota sa gareeb sa gao hi suj ta hain. Isliye tum goa ladakh lakshwadeep jao hee mat accha hain.

Hindi songs that are so sskk core to me

“I can’t live without you now,

What is my worth without you?

If I got separated from you,

Then I’ll get separated from myself.

Because you’re the one,

Now you’re the one,

Now my life consists of you,

My peace and my pain,

You alone are my love.”

—Tum Hi Ho, Aashiqui 2

“I love/adore you so much,

A hundred times in one moment,

If you leave me and go,

I’ll just wait for my death—

Because for you I have left the universe behind,

My breath stops at you,

I want you more than anything,

You couldn’t even imagine.”

—Soch Na Sake, AIRLIFT

“Your sky, and mine,

Has become all smoke, like a dream,

Your sky, and mine,

Is spread in parts, like breaths…

Wherever you go,

You’ll find me only,

These shadows of mine are comprised in you,

I am a planet now, and you’re a planet too,

And we shall meet again,

In the world of stars now.”

—Saiyaara, Ek Tha Tiger

“You sleep in my sleep,

You cry in my tears,

There is a whisper in my thoughts,

Even if you’re not here it seems like you are,

You’re the disposition of my pain,

They are the prayers of my heart…all the ways leading back to you.”

—Galliyan, Ek Villain

#everyone should listen to these songs NEOW #Soch na sake specifically is near and dear to me. it’s a lovely song #the translations are hard to nail down especially since #a.) I’m not Indian I don’t speak Hindi I can only understand the gists of it #and b.) it’s hard to nail down the nuances of the meaning in English #but these songs are so so good and they are so sskk core #something about being one with the other like the universe meant for you to be together #bungou stray dogs #bungo stray dogs #sskk #shin soukoku

Queerness in Indian Media

↳Film: MAJA MA (2022, Hindi) dir. ANAND TIWARI

Maja Ma follows Pallavi Patel (Madhuri Dixit), a closeted lesbian who gave up her beloved, Kanchan (Simone Singh), decades ago and has since become a devoted mother, housewife, and adored member of her community. While making preparations for her son's (Ritwik Bhowmik) wedding, however, Pallavi is outed to the entire town--and subsequently must deal with the consequences to herself, her former beloved, and her family.

Madhuri Dixit discusses her role in this movie, how movies like this are more possible now because of OTT streaming, and the "unexpected reactions" to the story here.

Madhuri Dixit discusses this movie coming from "a place of love", wanting the LGBTQ community to "feel seen", and "accepting people for who they are" here.

The actress Madhuri Dixit has been in multiple gay and gay-coded media, both as a supportive character and as the gay character herself. She has also been supportive in real life of the LGBTQ community.

#bollywood #maja ma #queerness in indian media #I love how in every interview they're like 'so was it difficult to accept? were you afraid? were you nervous? did you hesitate?'#and every time she INSTANTLY is like 'no not at all. I loved the script. it is a story that needs to be told.'#queen of the gays!!#also if I had a dollar for every time gajraj rao plays the confused husband/father in a movie with gay people I'd have two dollars #which isn't much but it's funny that it's happened twice #anyway I have mixed feelings about some of the side stuff in this movie and the ending felt incomplete and too safe #but I understand that they already took such a big risk with her saying 'lesbian' outright rather than just coding #and then kanchan being gender non conforming in the past #which by the way. that moment during the dance when pallavi accepts that part of her too...[lies down]#it's so rare to see gnc people even in gay media so it was good.#which is why I had to include it in the gifset

nasu can squeeze in every fsn bitch under the sun into every damn fate property he makes but somehow can’t put a SINGLE NON EGYPTIAN AFRICAN SERVANT IN ANYTHING???? NOT EVEN YASUKE??? Y’KNOW ONE OF ODA NOBUNAGA’S RETAINERS???

#I love fsn as much as the next guy but come on #then again this also means I get to avoid typical fate bs being applied to my folk heroes and mythology I #but like #if it’s that or pretending the rest of Africa doesn’t fucking exist I’d take that #Africa being erased in 90% of big media outside of Egypt is a real problem that I am super fucking tired of #so getting SOMETHING in one ot the biggest franchises in the world would probably help with that!#but noooo #lets go to Britain again #or India! but we better not make any ot the Indians actually brown #what about Sakura let’s make another sakuraface #fgo #fate #fsn #fsr #fate extra #fate extella #damn near every fate property y’all catch my drift

I need the plot twist in my heart is a chainsaw to literally break my knees bc so far i’m not fully understanding the reviews calling it groundbreaking 🫥 I’ll always welcome another take on the genre aware horror but that’s kind of all it is so far so !!!???

#what I DO like is the quaint ‘slasher town’ being a gentrification project like this is moving things forward #Like it’s an expansion of his Night of the Mannequins novella which ok .#I get that and I think it’s much better than the novella (which I thought was rushed and half baked) so this is just #a much more solid execution of the theme but idkkkkk #this is not my final opinion though I really do anticipate a wild third act #I loved his other book the only good indians!!!#double shot
