Does Your Native Place Matter in Modern Dating?

I (28M) met a sweet person (25F) through a dating app, and we have been talking for over three and a half weeks now. However, the initial two weeks involved slow and steady conversations as she was dealing with a family crisis. So I ensured she had my presence to vent when things were exhausting or to hear her thoughts for making any decisions regarding the ongoing situations.

Things started sorting out on her end, and finally we got into those classic virtual dating stuff like random truth or dare questions, getting to know each other, and quirky flirting when either of us was low on a given day. And we finally decided to have our first date soon, and things were going well as she even asked me directly to meet her parents to talk about getting married out of nowhere.

So I want to genuinely work on it and make sure we set clear expectations before deciding. I am not from Vizag, and she's from Hyderabad, which is literally a few minutes' flight from HYD. We are from the same religion and are Telugu-speaking, so I thought there would be no issues, and everything looked fine until I mentioned I'm in Hyderabad for job purposes but my native place isn't here. The conversation became more silent from her end, and it was unexpected. So I tried to relieve the pressure and explained to her that it's basically the same state until politicians wanted it for their own merits, and there's nothing to worry about. I am also fine to relocate here until I retire, maybe because recently I had a discussion with my parents about buying a home here. So, it would at least be a passive income if not used for living by me, but I couldn't say that as I thought it would add more pressure on her. However, my extended family are all spread here in Hyderabad, so it's nothing strange for me. My uncle and aunt got married in the same setup where he's from Hyd and my aunt is from Vizag. I shared this with this girl I'm talking to and ensured it's nothing complicated as my uncle and aunt are happily married. But she didn't reply like she usually does, so I just let that pause for the day and just ensured her not to overthink anything for now and said good night.

So we haven't texted each other today yet. I'm curious, would it be fine to wait until she contacts me, as she's clearly under pressure right now, or should I just break the ice and try to relieve some of that pressure for her? Perhaps I could properly explain my point of view and discuss the relocation. I need all your wise and insightful knowledge right now.

Revisiting "Chamkila" movie

After its initial watch during its OTT release on Netflix, and with Imtiaz Ali's "Main Wapas Aaunga" nearing release, I thought of revisiting "Chamkila" for the second time. As tragic stories like this are too much for me to revisit—who can forget that first act and title sequence of the film—I tend to re-watch Imtiaz's films usually for self-discovery or escapism. Even the second watch has been tough for me. I wish it had a theater release to fully enjoy its experience, especially those awesome OSTs from none other than A.R. Rahman and the enchanting visuals by Sylvester, along with the captivating screenplay by Ali.

I would say Diljit and Parineeti surrendered to the script, and we only saw Chamkila and Amarjot on the screen. The supporting cast was also top-notch with their performances, and, man, the final act just hit me hard like a rock. At the end of the day, people are busy forgetting and just chasing money and fame, and we only matter until we are alive and sound. Life is unfair for the underdogs.

Just a heads-up: I'm not really into Anudeep's comedy movies.

After a long week, I was on a comedy film spree and watched *Jathi Ratnalu*. Before starting it, I was a bit nervous because *Prince* was a nightmare, and I swore off that director's films. But I wanted something new, so I watched *Jathi Ratnalu*, and honestly, it was alright. So, I gave Anudeep another shot and watched *Funky* today, and I totally regret it now 😡.

Seriously, how did the director and producer greenlight such a cringey comedy and a terrible screenplay? The songs just pop up out of nowhere, and believe me, during some serious scenes, there's a love song with the heroine dancing randomly! Honestly, it was only because of Naresh, Jai Krishna, and a few gags by Sampath that there's anything to even talk about in this movie.

And to top it all off, the worst climax ever, I mean, THE WORST! They spent the whole movie showing the hero as this chameleon, self-centered guy, but then, with no setup or explanation, the director just decided he was a caring, emotional person at the end. How does that even make sense? Everything about it was bad—the comedy, the songs, the acting, the terrible screenplay, literally everything. What did you guys think of the Funky movie?
