» If you've been missing out on all the fun and staying active with outdoor activities -- it's the rainy season's fault -- fret no longer. Come rain or shine, Bangkok has a few places where you can be active while having fun indoors, weather permitting or not. Guru has places where you can boost your spirits on a gloomy day with physical activities.
Freeform art

» A decade ago, theatre was still seen an art form on the margin in Thailand. That is less true today. Visual art and design events are beginning to include theatre in their programmes. The new art and design event Freeform Festival has revived an abandoned school building at ACMEN Ekamai Complex with exhibitions, workshops, food trucks, plays and dance. Their performing arts programme is a solid one. Hopefully, this will become another platform for quality theatre in the future.
Hearts and friendships

» A Karan Johar film usually offers promises of glamorous locales, impossibly beautiful leads, cameos of his A-list buddies, over-the-top songs and what is supposed to be an atomic bomb of feel-goodism. He doesn't let you down within the departments of the first four, but Ae Dil Hai Mushkil (The Heart Is Complicated) is unlikely to stay with you the way his previous decade-defining works have. It's not as tear-jerking or heartwarming, but still does offer a great soundtrack that will cling to your mind unlike its messy plot. (Try keeping the waterworks in when Channa Mereya comes on. You won't.)

Simply dazzling

» Happy New Year is a big Indian celebration with the same sort of jokes, recycled moments and flamboyant sets and dance numbers, but still a big party nevertheless.
