Wow. I always think while reading your stories that you write in such a rich way. There's something witty and worth rereading in every sentence. I often read your ff like this: read 2-3 sentences than go back to read them again to make sure I take in everything you put there. Then continue and do the same again and again

Hi @andli :) :)

OMG it’s so nice to hear from you! I hope you’re doing well!!

Aaaaaahhh I’m blushing, I showed PK and he was like nodding as if he agreed and I was like *does my best impersonation of a tomato*

This is so sweet. I’m just ... floored ... that you would consider anything I wrote worth savouring. I’m going to cryyyyyyy.

Sending you the world’s biggest plate of jalebis, and dher sara love!! Thank you so much, this means so much. I think I’ll print it out and frame it.

Hello phati sari! About the assumption thing "this is a smart one" was a first assumption when I started reading your recaps. But that is an obvious thing so I'll try another one: you like order. Hugs

Hey @andli :)

*blush* Awww thank you for saying that I am smart :)

Confirmed!

I like checklists, colour codes, and consistency. I can be very messy at times, don’t get me wrong, but I generally like order :)

Thanks for sending one in!!

Send me an assumption based on my blog!

Hi @andli​ :)

She’s back at the guesthouse this week to snoop through his things, and somehow all of these things are portrayed as perfectly okay!! I just can’t sometimes with the double standards shown in the media.

Shikha!! She gets on my nerves so much but there’s this sense that her actions are different cos she beats up boys and yay feminism, and I sit here tearing my hair out because no0o0, this is the interpretation of feminism that I least agree with. 

I can see that the characters are being used to explore certain view points that society in general holds, and can only challenge these views by showing a character or group of characters who subscribe to them. I know that one begins with flawed characters and then takes them on a journey so they’re more dimensional and wiser at the end, but I also think the way some of these things are done can leave audiences (me!) exasperated and frustrated with what’s being shown.

I gave up on IB around the time DBO started and it was just crap (IB is pretty bad too, bad with some fluff thrown in here and there) but I miss reading your live blogs so much. Sometimes I still read them and everything is awesome about them. Stuff like this for example: "THE FUCK AM I GONNA DO WITH 10 CRORES AROUND MY WRIST". If one thing makes me consider catching up on IB it's you. I promise that if I don't catch up on actually watching the show I will at least go back & read all your stuff

no wait, I cannot leave the previous ask without mentioning the best thing about IB: the comedy is really really good. Too bad it’s mixed with all the illogical BS around and all the dragging and the excess lights that hurt my eyes. And the billion nonsense villains that entered the show. And Rudra leaving.. Gahh I can’t go back to it. But your lb are great!

Hi @andli! 

Thank you so much for the liveblog love! I’m glad other people find my nonsensical scream-crying @ this godforsaken show as therapeutic as I do! I feel such a sense of relief once I’ve hit “post” on the lb and have let all my bhadaaaaas at the show out. 

I completely agree with you on the comedy bits of the show. The dialogues of this show have always been the true draw. From Anika and Rudra’s witticisms, to now fake!Shivaay’s AMAZING inner monologue and side-eye at the Oberois and their fuckery (honestly the only thing I keep watching for these days. I fucking love love love fake!Shivaay okay? He’s a hoot and a half. I’m in half the mind to suggest they replace real!Shivaay with this guy forever.) 

IMO, the lighting of the show is muchhhhhh better now, but the VFX, lord above. I feel like I’m watching some jankyass off-brand video game from the 90s. And *sigh*, while we’re all sad about Leenesh’s departure, I’m still (rather foolishly!) holding out hope that they’ll just replace the face and not actually kill off the character. Let’s see how it goes! Meanwhile enjoy watching me have a public breakdown of sorts over fictional people who don’t deserve it! ;)

This is so interesting! I was only familiar with German pet names, this is useful thank you ❤️

I read the last 2 chapters of Charade yesterday (not when I promised I will..) and they're beautifully written as always. You're amazing! I don't know what else to add. I read what everyone else has written to you about the last chapter (the things you shared on tumblr) and I just agree with them all. I hope you're having a wonderful weekend <3

Hey @andli ❤️❤️

LOL, oh no, don’t worry about that. It means so much to me that you read it :) Thank you very much, you’re being so kind about Charade. I’m finding it very nerve-wracking to share the ‘frequent and sustained intimacy’ I’ve always wanted for this story! But it’s also pretty exciting because I’ve worked really hard on these chapters and love them. I’m glad you liked them as well :)

I am having an excellent weekend! I had a routine doctor’s thing and now we’re with family. I watched Main aur Mr Riight and made some gifs so I’m happy :) Oh, and I finished my Harry Potter rewatch!! It’s made me want to read the books but I don’t know when I’ll find the energy or time!

Thanks again for reading, and for sending a wonderfully kind message. I hope life is treating you well ❤️

Not sure if I'm late for your birthday, probably yes. In any case I hope it is/was glorious and you are surrounded by lots of love. Happy birthday and hugs!

Hello @andli!!

It’s not important whether it’s late or early or whatever, what is important is that you took time out of your day to wish me :D Thank you very very much!! I had an excellent day of dosa and cake :)
