WHICH BOLLYWOOD FILM CHARACTER IS YOUR FUTURE SPOUSE ?

Characters can be female/male, it's not gender specific, just focus on their personality.

Take a deep breathe and focus on your third eye chakra ✨️ pick a picture that calls you out.

1 - 2 - 3

4 - 5 - 6

Pile 01 🪞

. . Aditya from Jab we Met💌

Omg! The biggest Green Flag ever !

Your future spouse's personality is just like him. Romantic and sweet. He's always there for you, even in your bad times. You can always rely on him. He's a great friend too, listening to your likes and dislikes. You like his sense of humor the most haha.

Like every other human being, he has his own flaws too. But he works on them and becomes a better man for his highest good.

Message is that often in life when you hit rock bottom, there is only one way to go and that is UP. And just like Geet and Aditya, some trains are supposed to be missed, so that you hop into one that takes you to a better, happier and healthier destination.

Pile 02 🪔

. . Qais Bhatt from Laila Majnu 💌

The way he looks at laila is amazing and heart throbbing. His love for laila is pure and serene. He is madly in love with her. Totally out of control but in a healthy way.

You both may be star-crossed lovers. They were Destined to love each other. Like the dailouge in the movie says —

" Our story has been destined. And neither the world nor the people can change it. "

There was something unique between you guys. You may know him/her since childhood or even a past life was shared by you together. You are twinflames or even soulmates. I can also see people were against you both due to many differences like religion or ethnicity, but your love never dies despite the circumstances.

Pile 03 🪞

. . Guru from Ek Villian 💌

Guru is a typical bad boy from fictional stories. He's life is totally is chaos. Your fs would be like him personality wise, except the illegal or evil things portrayed by the character.

Your fs is someone who's sad and lacks purpose in life currently. But like in the movie, when guru meets Aisha, his life changes. And he tries to become a better person and lead a better life. It's like moving from the bad and fearful times to the good ones.

He would gain a purpose, and that is you. He'd love you but he won't say that quite often, his eyes would tell. The warmth and soft feeling when he looks into your eyes will melt you right away.

Pile 04 🪔

. . Dr. Jehangir from Dear Zindagi 💌

Even though Dr. Jehangir was not an active love interest of Alia's character in the film, your fs would have the friendly and guide-like personality aspects of Dr. Jehangir in the movie.

Your fs would be a great listener. They may even belong the the medical field somehow. They'll drag you out of your worst situations in life. You two would share a comfortable, open and cozy bond together. Whenever you need some advice, they'll always be there for you.

I'm also getting that your fs can be your doctor or counselor at first. Or maybe just a great listener and giving you good advice.

Pile 05 🪞

. . Inder from Sanam Teri Kasam 💌

He literally holds Saru on her deathbed till she takes her last breathe 😭 What a wonderful character he is!

He's literally the most selfless and giving person to the love of his life. Your fs would be like him, pile 5, you're so lucky ♡ Your fs may have some legal issues going on or they may be a lawyer, as the justice card came up.

What I'm seeing is, like saru in the movie, you too are often betrayed or belittled by your own loved ones. You are often deceived by others and your fs does not like it at all. They just want your happiness. Even after you die, (may god not let it be) they'll still love you. They will give you whatever they have, you just name it. Wow. I'm in love with this reading ;_; ♡

Pile 06 🪔

. . Jordan from Rockstar 💌

Your fs is like Jordan from Rockstar. This movie is my personal favourite. Your fs is a heartbroken person, but when you arrive their life gets filled with happiness but when you leave their life burns into ashes. You may be twinflames.

There is something which holds you back from accepting this love between you both. You need to work on that fear.

I see your fs is famous, Despite being famous their heart yearns for love. There is still a void in their hearts Despite having money, power and wealth. Maybe they are waiting for you.

They are definitely an introvert and kind of famous online. Their heart burns with passion, very passionate and romantic individual. They may play an instrument or even sing. People like their rough and passionate personality.

Please like and rb if resonates !

I worked hard while making this so please show some love ❤️

In case you're wondering, Rani Chatterjee from Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani is who I think I am when I'm strutting down the street.

...some more desi!jon and martin hcs? for the soul?

Hello!!! Sorry for taking so long to answer, I needed to get into the right headspace lol

You know how it's a desi custom to like feed each other cake on birthdays? You do it with your loved ones especially so I'm imagining it's Jon's birthday and Tim insists on feeding him cake and he begrudgingly agrees then suddenly everyones feeding him cake and laughing and feeding everyone else and Martin really shouldn't feel like it's so intimate (indirect kisses as such) but it's a bonding moment for the whole archives crew

Jon is like insanely good at rangoli patterns, his grandma put him to work every festival season and it kept his hands busy for hours on end, building spiral patterns with vibrant powders. He lost some of it over the years, but in the Scottish Safehouse, he makes smaller patterns across the entrance almost as a sigil against everything they were being hunted by

Martin has a pretty good Bengali accent and is fluent, his mum refused to speak anything other than Bangla so he's kept it up all these years and gotten quite good at it to the point where he's sometimes mistaken for a native speaker

Jon has an atrocious accent and can just about get by in Hindi, he had been sat down by his grandma to try and teach him a couple of times over his childhood but he never could concentrate for long enough, his grandma shouted too much for his liking and he was a gifted kid so if he didn't get it immediately, he wouldn't do it at all

Jon's favourite Bollywood actor is Irrfan Khan cause he thinks he's super impactful and he loved him in Piku (but he grew up watching mostly old black and white Bangla movies directed by satyajit Roy like Pather Panchali)

Martin's favourite has to be SRK cause he's a classic and he grew up watching him and whenever he's sad he watches Kuch Kuch Hota Hai or Chennai Express

They both adore 3 Idiots though, like they were both screwed over by the education system in different ways (Martin struggled with juggling school and caring for his mum so he ended up dropping out, Jon and his burned out gifted kid vibes), they understand the pressure to get a certain level of educated and a certain type of profession (they would've gotten it from judgemental relatives lol like you couldve used your intelligence to become an engineer and instead you work for a falthu place) and they definitely understand the mental health issues and the friendship between the guys reminds them of their own friendships over the years

Also that song "give me some sunshine, give me some rain" like one day Martin's humming it and Jon's like is that???? and then Martin starts singing it and they do a little duet (martin was classically trained in rabindra Sangeet so he has a smooth velvety voice and jons is decent) and then it can become a super angsty call back in MAG 200

That's all I got!! Thanks for the ask!!

when you are the sun but you go maddham because shah rukh khan is there

[whenthegoldrays]

Hi elly!! I neeeeed you to hear this song called "tum se hi". It's one of my favorite hindi songs. And it has such a cute story in the movie. Basically the guy was depressed in the first half, had a lot of stuff going on with him and was neglecting his responsibilities, etc and one day he accidentally comes across this girl with whom he has to go on this whole adventure. He falls for her but she loves someone else

This song is basically him saying "he doesn't want anything in return for her, doesn't even mind if he never sees her again, she helped him improve in life and he will always love her no matter what".

And the music video is sooo sooo cute!!! Its basically him getting back to his work, focusing on his responsibility while also imagining her there as a part of his life. And there's a dance scene in the rain that's so popular that it has kind of become a thing for couples who grew up with this movie.

This is the mv (https://youtu.be/mt9xg0mmt28?si=pStRa_5sbbXy8tkK) though the song is shortened here but it's so cute you have to see it.

Also the actor is shahid kapoor (the guy from teri baaton me aisa uljha jiya) and kareena kapoor (pooja from k3g and she is actually good here😂).

Also the lyrics are so beautiful you'll love it

Oh… ohoHO!! You’ll never believe…

I’ve heard this song!!! I love this song!!!! Pretty sure I heard it while listening to your Bollywood playlist at work, and even more coincidentally, I was playing it in the car on Wednesday night on the way to dinner and skipping around the restaurant (well, just over to the drink machine) while humming the intro to myself (“ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah….”) and nearly slipped on the wet floor 💀

But the story and the lyrics sound so sweet 🥹 I was just there for the vibes up til now but now I’ll like it even more :))

Also, you might remember that I reblogged a gifset of the rain dance scene a while ago?? Though I recently saw the gifset again and I still didn’t recognize Pooja 🤣 But that’s cool!!! Hopefully I can also watch it soon 🤭

(Also what does the title mean? Cause I notice this one is “Tum Se Hi” and the one from yesterday is “Tum Se”…)

[anonymouse5]

my goodness my playlist sucks, please send song recs

[fatimajpeg]

hello! yesterday you mentioned growing up with Bollywood films, and I wondered is there one you'd recommend for someone new to them? I'm very curious, but I don't really know where to begin, and I'd appreciate a reccomendation from someone familiar with them :3

oh god idek where to start cuz they’ve always been a part of my life. i guess a good beginner movie is Lagaan? It’s basically an underdog sports movie with great music. Maybe Devdas? Jab We Met? I’m so bad at this cuz bollywood films have certain cultural sensibilities that can be hard for a non-desi viewer to get. So i’ll just list off some of my fave bollywood films:

Awaara, Mughal-e-Azam, Sholay, Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge, Kal ho na ho, Dil Se, Dil Chahta Hai, Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham, Munna Bhai M.B.B.S, Devdas, Om Shaanti Om, Chakde India, Taare Zameen Par, Koi Mil Gaya, Dhamal, Welcome, Jab We Met, Swades, Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na, Rab Ne Banadi Jodi, Band Baaja Baaraat, 3 Idiots, Wake Up Sid, Highway, RamLeela, Piku, Gangs of Wasseypur, Zindagi Na Millegi Dobara, Lunchbox, Dangal… and ofc Lagaan and Devdas too.

I’m missing a lot probably and this is very 2000s centric lol. Remember Bollywood just refers to Hindi Cinema based in Mumbai and it barely scratches the surface of Indian Cinema.

[captorsicallfriends]
