At work FH popped by for some help on a matter. As she left my desk I asked how her Eid was. I don't actually recall her reply; all I remember of the brief conversation we had was how she thought 'Bride and Prejudice' was 'C**P' and how wonderful Veer-Zaara was. I try not to openly show my disappreciation of Indian films to those who I barely know for fear of coming across as arrogant, so I kept quiet. Somehow, though, she convinced me to watch this film. And so, on Friday afternoon I planned how I would spend my Saturday afternoon and evening...incorporating this film into my schedule. But, as we all know, Allah swt is the Best of Planners and I didn't quite make it to the cinema. Reviewing the film earlier today...reviewing the cast and the roles that they play...the storyline...the director...the occasion chosen for the opening night...I now feel completely put off from the film. How could I have even considered wasting my time by driving 40 mins to the cinema..spending 3 hours and 12 minutes watching the film...and then driving 40 mins back? I need to be stronger, much stronger, inshaAllah.
