It's the forbidden taste of the Raj! Of course my Jewel Thief decor room will be stocked with Johnnie Walker, only black and some blue lable, of course. Red lable is only for the help. ;) And the poll was obviously unfair, because it was only I who declared the winner. I now will remove her as the winner and give a joint award to Helen and Tanuja, OK? :) And yes, the movie is all about the style and the musical numbers for me, and really nothing about the actual movie. All the ingredients were there, but the movie didn't come out quite right for me. Dear Shweta,

If I won the lottery, I'd design a room just like that for screening Bollywood films. Of course I'd invite all commenters on this blog to join me. And theBollywoodFan, it may inspire an audit! Shalu really comes through in the end with her dance, which I'll post tomorrow. Whats' odd about this film, is like I'd written in the first post, I didn't really like it that much, but I liked all the "parts" the style+dancing+sets+outfits= pyar! Ishq I do think it's worth a viewing. Plus there's Helen! Shweta, her pad is so deluxe! If I won the lottery, I’d design a room just like that for screening Bollywood films.

Although her house might inspire an audit and eventually lead to the thief, which can only mean trouble. So, if the Jewel Thief is in it for the long term, my vote's for the more sensitive (and likely more loyal) Shalu! =) I haven’t seen Jewel Thief (now I want to), but Anju would seem to be better aligned to complement a jewel thief in his quest (unless the title is a play on the word ‘thief’ and a jewel is supposed to be a heart, lol).
