You see this scene in a trailer and wonder how on Earth that would make it less romantic!

You know you're obsessed with BW when you always have this weird thing where if you see characters on-screen eating something you instantly want it too. (So absurd Tongue)
If I see people in a BW movie having paani puri then I'm immediately craving paani puri. Or if they're having gulab-jamons then I want that. Seeing them having ice-cream is the worst~
I need to avoid scenes depicting people consuming snacks and desserts, it's causing problems with my healthy diet haha:p

When your Pakistani friend tries to suggest BW movies for you to watch . . . and you've already seen all the ones he suggests. (Happened to me!) He was very impressed(?)
When you have a BW playlist that has more songs on it than your "regular" playlists.
When you can recognize Hindi/Urdu being spoken, even if you can't understand what's being said.
All of your friends know the wriggling shoulder/finger jump Punjabi move, even if they've never seen a BW movie . . .
. . . All your friends have seen at least one BW movie.  Cool It wasn't easy, but I made it happen . . .  Wink

You and your sister go see Mirror Mirror because we hear there is an item number at the end and you are starved for new ones as Bollywood isn't much doing them any more. My comment was shades of an item number.

When you are on LinkedIn and an ad on the sidebar says "Jobs you may be interested in " with  a link to view in "beta" beside it.

I read it "Jobs you may be interested in beta" and I'm all like "How sweet, they're calling me  beta  Embarrassed Embarrassed "

This happens to me, especially with the pani puri! They looked so good in RNBDJ (although they were calling them something else in that) so I found a recipe and made them myself.  They're not that hard to make, actually.

File this under: "You know you are unnaturally protective of BW when..."  I was browsing magazines yesterday at some drugstore and there was a picture of Katy Perry (not exactly a fan of Western pop stars here) with blue hair and wearing a bindi.  I was strangely irritated and casually brushed the page in the chance that maybe it was just a speck of dust.  And... it was.  Tongue I was so happy!

^ I had to look up the MM title online, I didn't realize it was another Snow White adaptation
And I know what you mean, I go to yesteryears movies (or even movies from just a decade or two back) for colorful song numbers now
B/c they aren't being made as often anymore in modern BW at all
[Luckily there are quite a lot of them in the older movies though, to watch and re-watch]
