This show man, how is this so good 🤌 – Yeh Fitoor Tera

I am just absolutely floored with this show man! Mere kaan taras gaye the ye sab sunne ke liye, especially from an ITV show. The way this show talks about SA, patriarchy, the cost of silence, internalised misogyny and the maan, maryada, izzat debate especially from women upholding patriarchy in the family is crazy good. And the acting from our main leads Ishaan and Debchandrima, especially Ishaan is so sooooo good 🤌🤌🤌 Just amazing! Ishaan steals every frame he's in with his dialogues, comedic timing, expressions, protectiveness, and Deba works the sensitive and tragic scenes masterfully. Loving this until now!

There's still a ton of story left...

So, unlike what everyone's saying, I don't think this is a finite series. Maybe this is a short series, like 100-200 episodes one. But, regardless I think the truth about the creepy uncle getting out is the starting point of Jeet and Soumya's story. The synopsis is a passionate story set in Prayagraj, so the passion is still left, and if it's anything like Sanam teri kasam, then it's gonna be delicious. So, yeah, them falling in love is still left, the passion is still left. Also, hoping they don't derail the plot after this track through. Cause I want this show to achieve great heights!

Any app that does same day delivery of medicines in Dhanbad?

So I just need to know cause Tata 1Mg takes at least 3-4 days to arrive and hence I was looking for any other alternate app that does same day delivery or even 1 or 2 days delivery of medicines in Dhanbad.

P.S.: I know that going physically to the shop will get me faster and cheaper medicines, but I'm asking this for someone who can't go to the shop every so often, that's why home delivery is so crucial.

A rare L opinion: Spiderman: Brand New Day

I usually agree with a lot of MOC opinions on movies and all, but I'm quite stumped by PJ and Mohit's opinions for Brand New Day, especially Mohit's. Like, what are they even saying? The movie is not action heavy? Spiderman is not going through anything but is there just doing something? The movie feels very videogame-y? Etc etc etc. Like whattt?

Like, 90% of people who have watched the movie can immediately figure out that the movie is about Transformation, Loneliness, Adulthood, Sadness, Strength it takes to Ask For Help and themes like that. Like, in every sense of the word, this movie is literal character development. Peter is not a kid anymore and he's now a fully grown adult, in all senses of the word. It is not promoted as a sole action movie EVER, and yet, these two are saying that 'the action could've been better', 'the fights could've been better', 'the movie is not really about anything related to Spiderman', 'AOU Hulk fight was better'. Like, this is crazy. Where is the nuance? A lot of what they're critiquing feels obtuse, cause these things are understood in the movie itself. This is a very street level, friendly neighbourhood Spider-man movie. This is not Avengers: Age of Ultron, so there will obviously be no AOU level fights. And that is not the purpose at all. Like, come on! And it is understood that action is there, but it's not a priority - the emotions are. And whatever action there is, is very beautiful. Very grounded. As it's supposed to be.

And not to mention, the action sequences they feel are videogame-y have literally been taken as is from comic book covers, so what even is this critique...

I expected this from PJ cause his take is not usually that nuanced (though PJ also surprises with utterly nuanced opinions when you least expect it. Eg: his Obsession review is GOAT. He is the only Indian reviewer to point out themes of consent in that movie. Loved it!). But here, he is definitely lacking. But worst is, seeing Mohit of all people talk like this. It makes you feel really disappointed. And makes you think, does this guy really read comic books? Cause it's not showing AT ALL.

The only review I liked was Badal's, very nicely done and it looks like he got the gist of things better than his two companions. And this is also not to say that the movie is without flaws, it's not. But the flaws are NOT AT ALL what these two are pointing out. Classic case of the story going entirely over their heads.

(And this is doubly disappointing for me re: Mohit, cause the same happened in his Obsession review. Like, I cannot understand how someone as brainy as Mohit can see such a heavy movie like that and only notice the jump scare. And now after this, I'm kinda beginning to doubt his people given 'Best Reviewer' tag.)

Any tea on Nikeet Dhillon? Is she really dating Sumedh Mudgalkar?

Same as the title. Any tea on her? Who is she dating? There's an ongoing rumour that she's dating Sumedh Mudgalkar, is this true? If yes, then since when? And if no, does she have a love life? Who is her boyfriend?

Weird I never knew Asur was a JioHotstar property

I always thought Asur was either a Netflix or Prime property, so imagine my surprise when I found out that nope, it's on JioHotstar! Still wondering how that's possible though since Hotstar arrived quite late in the game.

Exploitation of renters in a PG in the name of big appliances in Newtown, Kolkata + abuse and harassment!

Hi, I'm 24 F living in a girls PG in the Newtown area in Kolkata. The electricity rates in our area is 14 rs per unit. My PG room has a meter but it's not active since we are not using AC. I'm using a cooler, which they tag under big appliances like induction etc. Now, the issue is that the PG authorities are charging 1500 rs per month as electricity bill for the cooler from me independently under the guise of it being a big appliance.

It's pure exploitation in my opinion, since I have lived in an AC pg before and have asked around regarding this issue, and by my experience and acc to what everyone has said, even after using the ac full time in a room for a month, the max electricity bill goes is from soemwhere above 500 upto 1200. So, asking 1500 a month for using the cooler is exorbitant pricing.

Not to mention that I went home for 12 days and in those 12 days I have not used the cooler at all, so their cumulative electricity bill does not have any contribution from me independently for those 12 days. I had informed about this to them the day I went home via whattsapp and have all the train tickets, absent record everything, plus my roommates can attest for me.

The way they are charging is via pre-payment. Meaning they take 1500 per month and then ask you to argue about it if you want concession in it. Last month on 24th may, they took the first bill of 1500 from me and this month today, they forcefully took another bill of 1500 from me for July, saying if I dont pay they will confiscate the cooler. When I told them this was unfair and the price is too high, they were not budging and said I need to talk to the owner and started screaming at me. They were repeatedly asking me to come to office to discuss this alone and I'm afraid of going because it's impossible to stand your ground when you're surrounded by so many people speaking over you. So, I refused. But the damage is done, they took 1500 for July also.

The lady that came in who was screaming at me and was verbally harassing me has done this before with some other other girls in my presence, but last time she was beating on the door loudly for half an hour and trying to intimidate and scare us because we had closed it due to fear and her constant arguing. I'm pretty sure that is harassment, and what happened today also constitutes as mental harassment.

Now, since this issue is still fresh, they have asked me if I want some consideration for the month of May mainly counting the absent days (how they will adjust it or if they will even give concession, I don't know) then to write an email to them detailing everything.

I asked me how they will adjust the concession? Via next months rent or something else? They didn't reply. I asked what about the meter and why should I have to give a single rupee more than what I am actually consuming, they said they will activate the meter from next time. But that's too since monsoon will be fully here by then and I won't need a cooler anymore. They didn't reply to that also.

Now, I'm asking you guys, what is the best steps to take next in this situation to protect myself and so I don't suffer more loss? What should I do? How to fight this injustice? And how to approach the verbal abuse and harassment situation? Should I approach all of this legally? Have they broken laws? What protection do renters have in India from these exploitative authorities? And also regarding harassment and abuse? Need some guidance at the earliest please since I have to send mail by Monday.

Some other information: My roommates have two table fans and it's costing them 300 each per month, thats also independent for them. When asking the PG authorities to show some consideration they are constantly saying they are getting bills of 8000 and when I'm saying I was not there for 12 days, they are falsely saying that someone must've used my cooler in my absence. (Which is impossible because I take the water plug/cap with me when I go home, and w/o that water won't stay in the cooler), so they are blatantly lying here. The person who screamed at me did so after I got frustrated and called her a beggar for repeatedly continuing to harass, ragebait and provoke me and talking extremely rudely to me following which she shouted and screamed at me at full volume and I had never experienced something like that before so I started crying. Another detail, in my PG, wifi is broken, toilets have not been cleaned for two months, they are fitting 3 people in two seater sized room, lights and fans are missing in the hallways etc.

Is House of the Dragon censored?

Hey all, can anyone quickly tell me if the new season 3 of House of the Dragon is censored or not on JioHotstar? I have a subscription, but I don't wanna watch censored stuff. So, if its censored I'll try and watch somewhere else, if not, then will see on JioHotstar.

ITV is so out of touch with reality

I find it so ironic that this ITV is running on the same standards as the older generations binding their kids in arranged maariages and forcing arranged marriages. And then you have the younger generations that suffer with this stupid decision, either the girls getting murdered for dowry or boys getting killed by girls and their bfs. And if neither of these happen and your marriage is still in shambles it's the divorce and alimony game.

I genuinely think ITV is also majorly at fault for keeping our parents in the dark about what the younger gens want. Like it's high time forced marriages are banned altogether, and the frequency of arranged marriages should be lessened and ITV couple should not be made the standard for marriages because in reality, arranged marriage couples are happy only like less than half the time. And that too is an exaggeration.

If society in other countries don't shame you for marrying late or even not marrying, why are Indian societies so regressive? And why tf does ITV glorify them? This issue is more dangerous than it seems because majority of the time the middle class families who have this mindset live in tier 2 and 3 cities and their only form of entertainment is tv and this regressive bs. So ITV is also keeping our society from evolving.

Are these crimes not enough?

Maa Behen and how the society just won't let a woman be

That's it honestly, the title says everything, nothing more to add. A heartwarming film in the end with a very sharp social message. I love how all the accusations were loud but the reality was never explicitly stated justifyingly or in a way to vindicate itself. But it was always there, between the lines, waiting to be discovered, implied.

What's with all the misogyny? Re: the Peddi drama

I've been scrolling through the Peddi and Janhvi drama posts and it is absolutely crazy to me how everyone is calling out Janhvi for this mess and everyone who is supporting her is being called PR when it should be first and foremost the director and his creative team including the writers who should be called out. Like, what is even happening?

People are posting disgusting comments such as Janhvi always wanted to be sexualised so it is actually her fault. Like, what? Are you even hearing yourself? Is a woman not allowed to want to advance her career and work with big names? And if during that, something happens, it's somehow her fault for... idk wanting to do more movies I guess?

Why we as a society first zone in to blame the woman of all things? Especially when it's clearly the director's and the writer's fault?

Why is it that the conversation is 'Janhvi should not sign such scripts' and not 'It is utterly disrespectful and a disgrace to any woman that scripts and scenes such as these are being made in 2026?'

Why is it that her nepo status is being considered so much and the rampant patriarchy in the South industry is not? Deepika was thrown out of two south movies just for taking a stand for herself for doing 8 hours as a new mother which is her right and Deepika is a much bigger and influential actress than Janhvi. Why is this context not being considered?

Mind you, this is the same audience who will see movies such as Obsession and go 'oh the girl was creepy af', 'poor guy, he didn't know what his wish would entail', 'love makes us do stupid things tsk tsk' while completely absolving the guy of his heinous crimes. Where did we as a society go so wrong? Why is misogyny and patriarchy so ingrained in us that we can't differentiate between right or wrong?

Honestly, let the downvotes come but what is wrong is wrong. And FYI: women can also support misogyny and patriarchy and it is incredibly common in the South. I wrote this post because this highlights a bigger issue regarding the general Indian mentality and is also related to a recently released film, not cause I'm some fan of Janhvi or somehow her PR.

What will you watch Dhurandhar The Revenge on?

Now that the movie is out on Netflix (International) and will be out soon-ish on JioHotstar, which platform are you planning to watch the movie on? The Netflix Raw and Undekha version is getting a TON of praises as the makers have made good use of the extra time and absolutely polished the heck out of the movie - meaning all the inconsistencies, fast cuts, errors in sound design etc which were hindering the impact of certain moments have all been fixed (yes, even that cameraman) and the movie overall comes out as the best version of itself without any cuts or interruptions.

I also found a video here that elaborates all the differences between the theatrical and Netflix international version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NjgyWEWzOAw&t=321s . And it is also said that JioHotstar will probably have the censored version, though they would probably have also gotten the more polished version of the movie. And if one wants to watch on Netflix, they'll most probably have to go through the VPN route to get it on International Netflix.

And this is without any doubt, that because of these things, Dhurandhar 2 will rage on an International level on Netflix. But the question remains is, what will India go with? JioHotstar or Netflix?

So, I was looking for someplace to watch Jagadhatri besides Zee5. For some reason the app does not work on my phone and the desktop site glitches a lot. So, I looking for somewhere else to watch this show. Telegram, website, anything will do honestly. Does anyone have any idea where else we can find the show?

How about for JLTG crew's next, they do a game like this. A race to go to different places and having sort of like a start with with guessing the place. And maybe they can have a few rounds so they have to go to different places and whoever gets the most places right in a certain time limit wins! Maybe, they can also have someone as a guest who is a good at geoguessing and try and recreate the pics like these. Maybe Jay Foreman? I watched the TomSka video with him recently and he was very good in it! Or just any guest who is good with geography will do!

Of course, this round would very much be travel based instead of strategy and full on gameplay, but I think for one season, it doesn't harm to give it a try. As for places where they might have difficulty travelling to, maybe they can have it vetted by the rest of their behind the scenes crew.

So I came across this on Wikipedia while looking up 'Yadava' and this part of the text really made me upset. Why has this paragraph been phrased like this? And as a whole, why is Krishna being treated as corrupt here and just killed Kans and is shown as just another ruler who needed to be enlightened as if Krishna is not param bhrama? I feel this is so disrespectful. Why would someone say that? [Second photo is Google search result]

Edit/Note: Since a lot of people are zoning in on the other things, let me clarify, I don't find mentions of the Yadava fratricidal war or end of Krishna and Dwarka disrespectful. The portions I find disrespectful in particular are:

'According to the Ghata Jataka, Vasudeva, Baladeva and eight other Andhaka-Venhu (probably, a corrupt form of Andhaka-Venhi, Pali equivalent to Sanskrit Andhaka-Vrishni) brothers seized Dvaravati and killed its king Kamsa. Later, these brothers fought amongst themselves and except Vasudeva and Baladeva everybody died.'

  1. Usage of the word 'corrupt'. Andhaka-Venhu is a popular name used for Krishna's clan so calling it a distorted or corrupt version of the other word Andhaka-Venhi does not make sense.
  2. Very importantly, depiction of Krishna as a usurper of Kans's throne especially in Dwarka. Which is... disrespectful and inaccurate imo? Because they are intentionally ignoring very important context behind it and grouping all of Krishna's gyan, reasons, and actions under two callous words: 'seized' and 'killed' which implies that Kansa was not much at fault and Krishna's intentions were not okay which is frankly, untrue. Furthermore, Kans never ruled Dwarka. Krishna made Dwarka. Kans ruled Mathura, so idk where this is coming from.

The other portion I find disrespectful and inaccurate is from the google search:

  1. Saying that Jara mistook Krishna for a pig. Really? A pig of all things? I don't consider pigs as bad creatures but still pigs are quite unclean and live in a mess. So, mistaking Krishna for a pig is... I don't know. I don't like it. It feels demeaning somehow.

And the final one,

  1. Implying that Krishna himself needs to learn lessons from someone i.e. a 'wise man' and that man is Buddha. Firstly, it's blatant inaccuracy that somehow Buddha who was born thousands of years later than Krishna somehow is there to impart him knowledge in his final moments. Secondly, Krishna is literal god, so why would he need this gyan on grief. He is the one who imparts knowledge, no? And I'm not saying that gods cannot receive guidance from someone, sure they can. But the way in which it is said implies that malintent and an attempt to show Krishna in a lesser light than he actually is.

Maybe I'm overthinking, but I don't know, I find it really weird that while we are here respecting others and their faith, they are blatantly disrespecting our gods. Also, I know unimportant things like these don't really matter to our gods such as who writes what about them, but it baffles me as to how followers of other sects - that too, one so close to Hinduism, can write things like these.
