All Khanned Out.... Over You....
've been tagged! Fifty percent off now through Sunday.
Or not. Rather, I've been tagged by Beth to list my four favorite Khans.
So, in the spirit of horrible puns, who is it that I khan't get enough of?
Well, firstly, I'll list Khan!, a 1975 crime/drama that ran for only one season. It's in first place because, well, EXCLAMATION POINT. Exclamation points for the win!
In second place there's 1982's Star Trek: The Wrath of Khan because my boyfriend likes Star Trek, and he wants his vote to count.
In third place I'll put choreographer Saroj Khan, who created the steps to possibly the world's most basmatic dance number ever, Mr. India's "Hawa Hawaii." Also to her credit: Devdas, Taal, Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam, Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge, and Khal Nayak, among dozens of others.

This is one of those times when I wish I could automatically have the brain and sensibilities of someone born and raised in India, because I cannot figure out on how many levels this is meant to be funny.

Either way, though, that's the gift that keeps on giving - very fitting for SRK.

Great blog...
Have to say, I've never seen that video (or heard the song) before, but I liked it.

Love your blog. A small correction though: Sana Khan is Sunidhi Chauhan's married name. She changed her name when she married director Bobby Khan. They are currently divorced.
