Thanks, Kitten! I can’t really take credit, though – that was all G’s idea.

The Om Shanti Om video was on AVS a couple of weeks ago, and I made G watch it. He loved that Bollywood finally caught onto the whole “the song should have something to do with the movie” thing and that the video was so much like Phantom of the Opera (one of our favorites). I also love Dard-e-Disco — not only is the song good, but SRK is looking damn fine in the video. Neither of us actually watch any Bollywood movies, but I watch AVS/Namaste America/etc. every weekend.

Off topic, but G and I saw Ironman over the weekend, and decided that the soundtrack to that movie would be great workout music – lots of exciting, fast, hard rock kind of stuff.

NK – I’ve had the song in my head all weekend! It’s great! I’ve been listening to it via YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3IHGFPs6Rt4
I just played it for M, and he really liked it. Especially the part in the video where Shah Rukh Khan was dressed up like a pirate. Anyway, I think we may go with it. At the wedding you went to did they play it just for the entrance of the bride and groom or for the entrance of the wedding party (if there was one) too? I’m trying to decide if we should have two songs or just one.

I’m sure it’s considered really old now, but another bollywood-esque song I love is “Aaja Nachle” which was in “Monsoon Wedding”. You’re right Pale_Desi – these are great work out/running songs! Congrats on training for your first 1/2 marathon! I can guarantee you – you’ll have a blast! I’m gearing 4th marathon this October. I never thought I’d run one, let alone four – it’s addictive!

Oh I for one already have Om Shanti Om on my iPod. I love running to Dard-e-Disco and Deewangi Deewangi… the songs make me happy! I think a lot of bollywood songs are perfect for running/working out. Also try It’s the Time to Disco and Maahi Ve from Kal Ho Na Ho! My boyfriend is a big SRK fan… so I’m exposed to all of SRK’s movies and I love the music!!
Tangent: I’m going to run my 1st 1/2 marathon in August… and these songs are going to help pull me through!!

Update: R and I have been working on Don’t Go Breakin’ My Heart and our dance moves (in between snorting lines). OK I’M HORRIBLE! I’ll stop…

CT—did you listen to Om Shanti Om yet?!?!??! Do you like it??? I sooo love it… I need to put it on my ipod for when I work out!

The inimitable Peter Sellers and Sophia Loren had this duet way back in 1960 in “The Millionairess”
