I agree with your comments on Love and Leashes, I liked that it started out platonic, and I don't think the plot needed to explode at the end to push them together. They could have decided to date without all of that. Just went to check what I wrote in my review and it was this:
"I also didn't enjoy the last half-hour or so of the movie as much as the rest, because the director must have thought "We can't have delightful kink the entire movie! We need stakes (risk of people finding out that they're secretly partners in kink), a climax (when people do find out), and a resolution (they don't lose their jobs, and they continue their partnership while also dating)." To which I say, "WHY CAN'T we have delightful kink the entire movie?!" They could've decided to date without the plot exploding to push them together."
I am wary of Bollywood (and in my native language, Tollywood). I think the last thing I watched in its entirety which had Hindi in it was the show, Made In Heaven.
I had a writing slump for a couple of years and Very Short Fics were the way I tiptoed my way out of it. I have trouble writing regularly as well, because of the Big Girl Job I'm doing. I hope we're both able to find the time/inspiration to write to our satisfaction again! ♡
