calicobonnet replied to your post: do you read books often? if so what books do you like? how was the part of Ash that you read? I’ve been wanting to read it! Actually I read all of Ash! (Just only the first 50 pages of the Edward Said books, haha.)

ok so @thearanadiscoteca found hardsubbed download links for Mughal-e-Azam (IN COLOR!!) and since TUMBLR SUX!!1 right now we’re totally going to watch together! If you want to watch with us in spirit if not in actuality (since that would be extremely hard and probably not-fun to coordinate) send me an ask and I can reply to it with the download links!
