Kal Hamara Hai (Tomorrow is ours) poem by Shailendra, was used beautifully in Dhadak 2. Everything leading up to this rendition makes it all the more powerful when it happens. Not gonna translate this because its effing hard to to do so.

How the fuck does high school yearbook cost 75$? This is insane – and that is without any added customizations, text or otherwise.
I really want to watch One Battle After Another.
A very active weekend once again with friends from Philly over. The doggos had way too much fun as usual.
That was a much closer match than it should have been really.
🍿 Dhadak 2 (2025) – ★★★★☆
Calling a sequel to original dhadak was such a crime. This is a very gritty coming of age story of a dalit man and a privileged woman. Much parallels to today’s times as well. And yes this dark side of India does exist. Highly recommended even though dark and grim.
📺 The Ba***ds of Bollywood (2025) – ★★★☆☆
The first five episodes were good, and the mindless absurd humor meets the mark. The numerous cameos work wonderfully well (seriously is there any Bollywood actor who did not have a cameo in this series?), and the meta references on everything and everyone Bollywood often land, because they are not over explained. Then the series becomes a mess in the last two episodes with a twist that just doesn’t land. Still, I feel like there is a good director in Aryan who really felt he had to prove he could direct any genre. Maybe next time stick to a couple. That said, absolutely fab acting by Karan Johar playing himself, and how good was Arshad Warsi in a hardly 10 minute role but lands it so well that every other cameo looks sub par.
Why do the icon sizing look so weird on IOS26? I am sure they are all the same size but the Liquid Glass treatment creates a weird optical illusion making some icons for some apps feel like it’s stretched out in bottom. It feels like visual metaphor they were going for is looking down physically. Just doesn’t seem to work – I can see how it could work for a VR device but on the phone it looks off Ux wise. So unlike Apple this!
I don’t give a flying fuck what happens to James Comey. The dude single handedly pushed the country over a tipping point. If not for his antics there was a good chance Hillary wound have pulled it off and we would be in a different timeline. Rot in Hell motherfucker.
LOL, wake me up when people take the China K visa seriously. I don’t think China gets it that it’s not just the visa that makes H1b attractive, it’s the whole notion of living in America that makes it more attractive. You don’t just create a new visa category hoping that folks will come there instead of USA. Unfortunately, the current government knows this all too well and are using this as a leverage to do whatever the fuck they want.
