My absolute favorite part of DDLJ was the song sequence of Ruk Ja O Dil Diwane. Not only is the song a catchy and fun number, but it also allows us to see Raj in a new light. Until this point in the film, Raj is depicted as an easygoing, carefree man; he’s immature and […]

Watching the film, it reminded me a lot about Korean dramas, k-dramas for short. Korean dramas are known to be unrealistic and dramatic as well with love stories, whether they are about arranged marriages […]
