Lost words.




The little pleasures,
The simple gestures,
In spite of everything,
when everything seems fading.

The perfect winters,
where sun plays hide and seek.
The rains which are often missed.

Of all the things,
Which made me,
I want my WORDs back to me.


How can I let thou leave,
you are a reliever
You make me believe.
But, when I find you lacking,
my heart breaks.
It pains,
it drills.
But, nowhere can I reach
the destination which is Insane.

If Prayers could be moulded,
I would ask:
To get me my happiness and peace.
 Words.. my words!!

Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu: EMAET



"Paniyon k jaisi hain yeh muskane , behne de
 Labjon main btana hai ni zaroori, rehne de"

It has been really long since Rockstar released and none other movie caught the attention.
But, just one fine morning EMAET's promo glued the eyes to the television set. And, probably from that very time, I wanted to watch the movie.





On the other hand, the tragedy of life is that nobody was ready to watch it with me because of a trillion reasons.
And, the one reason for the same was not liking the reviews.

So, finally I watched it alone. Forgot the world for a few hours. Even forgot that I have things to complete and just quit from another tiring/terrible day at work.
Just for that last line, I hope only my dear ones follow this blog. Sometimes, I think even they don't. lol.
Anyways, for the movie- I certainly loved it and probably was not criticizing the movie for the very first time.

One fine morning, you are born in a perfectly disciplined family where in your early age you have been taught to dress perfectly, return on time from that 1hour you are given to play with your friends.
 Rahul's case was probably worse than mine. :)
Although, there are scenes where you know things are exaggerated. We are used to these vulgar jokes in Karan Johar's movies.

Geet from Jab We Met has been the most charming Bollywood character ever. I have always loved the pace, the dialogues, the sincerity with the role.Also, not to forget the silent and shy lover -Shahid Kapoor who adds the beauty in the movie.
You might not find Geet in Riana but you can actually fall for Kareena Kapoor. She's actually pretty.


For Imran- I have never felt he acts. This has began from Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na..to I hate Love Stories.,.and even in EMAET.
Probably, he speaks much fewer dialogues face to face. Probably, he likes the narration. Although, I am completely comfortable with it.But, In EMAET, he actually does justice to the role. From that Mumma's boy to a perfect friend cum lover, he is just worthy of another applause.Those few scenes- where Imran says-I still think, one fine morning everything will be understood..and you can actually find yourself relating to him.

A disciplined guy -after losing his job + Girlfriend meets this Messy Riana who is just too irritating.
But, that Sunshine Girl role completely suits Kareena. And, to be honest, Kareena actually does that to the big screen. She's loud rather very loud but you will love the witty replies she gives Imran.That one girl, who when enters everything is glowing,shining and is beautiful.
Although Auntyji was the most irritating song I ever heard. After watching it in the movie, the perception changed. I actually love the song.
Coming to the music, EMAET title track transacts you to a Party mode.
Gubbare might sound idiotic at first- but as usual-listen to the lyrics and you will eventually like it.That's actually a beautiful track.

For "Aahatein", it had been my favorite even before the movie released. The music, the lyrics and just the feel of it.

For "Kar chalna shuru.." I would just say:
There might be real life situations where you end up falling in love with your best friend without even knowing the consequence. Although most bollywood movies have followed the same theme but had a happy ending.
But, I loved the open ending. Sometimes, it's how it happens in the real world too. You don't know how to react to that one person you have believed for so long.
You don't know how to face that one person with whom you can discuss your long list of crushes, your likes and dislikes.You don't know how to bring things back to the same level where they were without changing that loud conversation you used to have, wherein you can call a friend at any time without even thinking.
Probably, if you end up falling in love with your best buddy and find that the same feelings are not reciprocated- I, particularly feel that you should be thankful to God that it was your friend as someday in the long time to come-"Your friendship will always overcome love." And if are lucky enough, you might get your lover as your friend. :D

And,for Imran- he's cute. And, looks great from complete jerk to welcoming his new life with zest.
As sung-"Aee..dil tujhe pta hai,
yeh lamhe aur kya hain"
Also, the way Kareena has dealt with such a critical situation is appreciable.

EMAET was not about - two entirely different people meeting and parting away. It was just a reminder of although how much you care for someone you love, your friendship can save the memories.  Probably, that affection would last long, maybe forever. But, sometimes,it's not about getting the person to walk along with you. Sometimes, it just walking happily on different paths-yet loving that one person you can't be with.
I am really not sure why people said it's a waste of time.
I simply loved it.
Despite the exaggeration, the loud comedy - I just loved the ending and here comes:-




"Jo hua hai woh hota  hai,
Jo  hona hai woh hona hai.
Kar chalna shuru tu,
Mud k na dekh tu,
Jaise hai sahi hai,
Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu."

That part of me!!



Walking by,
The solitude is it,
The mere presence of the sounds bring a smile.

Those days,
where a clique was seen.
 I am waiting,now, for a while.

There is someone, something lacking behind,
That was one of it's kind.
Missy, have you lost your mind?
Perhaps, you also wined !!

I fail to understand,
the depth, the pain
looks like agony in the rain.

That world of mine,
where every smile bewilders,
every heart beautify.

I now know-
In this hurry-
I left the innocence far behind.
Traversing each day -
 Recalling that Persona

where I was I,
with some resemblance
in each face that ever charmed.
Left are the glimpses,
The morning sunshine,
Alluring winters,
and the memories behind..

Dedicated to that lovely bunch of  FRIENDS I have!!

To Each It's Own!!

 
Below is one of my favorite lines written by one of my friends - Sakshi Kukreja !!
"Before you can grow up, you must fall in love three times.

Once, you must fall in love with your best friend, ruining your friendship forever. This will teach you who your true friends are, and the fine line between friendship and more....

Once you must fall in love with someone you believe is perfect. You will learn that no one is perfect, and that you should never be treated as anything less than you deserve....

And once, you must fall in love with someone that is exactly like you. This will teach you about who you are, and who you want to be...

And when you’re through with all that, you learn that the people who care about you the most are the ones that you hurt, and the ones that hurt you are the ones that needed you the most.
But most of all, you learn that love is only a concept and is not something that can be defined, it is different to each and every person on this earth, knowing that everyone wants to be loved."
This doesn't end here. So, lets add more to it.
They say a heart break is necessary to understand the sudden transformation from a happy to a suffering person and to be happy again. Also, although the above lines say to fall in love thrice- but even if that happens once and follows every criteria explained- you learn a lot even then.
Yes, it's true that love is only a concept. Some express, some shy away, some care, some fight, some let it go, some care to hold on. But, the one I liked is hoping for other person's well-being even if he/she is not the one for you. (Probably, it's the Vampire Diaries/Bollywood masala which brought this one up- but, again some believes are still difficult to shatter). Nevertheless, love has another concept - which says it's selfless.
But, here comes my explanation which says it's not selfless.You are happy in somebody's happiness as it makes you happy. So, finally if it was all for my happiness, how is it selfless. Perhaps, everyone longs for love despite the fact only a few understand the depth.
Anyways, I really loved your lines SAKSHI - in case you are reading this one.

Punner

That shivering which made everything still,
The fire is no more a symbol of hatred,
It  gives away warmth,

It burns,
It destroys,
But, amidst the destruction,
While acting as a relief provider,
No one curses it.

I wonder,
how selfish is Human,
Criticizes when fire ruins,
Appreciates when fire ruins for his mere sake.

The dilemma from ages,
the beauty or the devastation.
For the same piece of work,
Some witness the glory,
some get satisfaction,
some enjoy the fete,

Probably,
That chunk of misfortune
is for the ones who were burnt
not for ones who relished the ashes.

Why Resolutions 2012?


Remember those days when only a scolding from Dad used to change the habits.
So, why do we need a New Year resolution to overcome the laziness? Why do we need an external force rather a materialistic reason when the internal forces can drive and make sure you go on long?

This year – atleast there’s no resolutions for me.
I am not planning to do anything which will start from 1st of Jan and probably won’t even last that long.

While life is moving on with the same pace each day and there is no place to sit back and plan most of the time, it becomes even more difficult to plan for a resolution.
I recall writing a post last year related to resolutions 2011 quoting the do's and Dont's.
It's almost the end of 2011- and many a times when I re-read that particular post made me realise -It's seriously easy to pen down and too difficult to follow the same.

2011 was like all other years filled with surprises and shocks. And, while I have been hearing - " Come out of your comfort zone" for the past 6 months, the only thing which I learnt is - every person seeks for their comfort zone and end up saying -" Life will be easy if you come out of your comfort zone."
Ironical but true.

The most funny of all things which 2011 has shown is to start laughing at your mistakes, enjoying the simple pleasures. I have loved walking alone for past few months. It really gives a peace of mind, time to think and resolves a lot many doubts.
But, I never planned for a daily walk till today. It randomly happens- and requires no prior resolution.
Probably, there are many who knew -"Take life as it comes to you funda". May be I knew it too. But, practicing it is a bit tricky. Slowly and gradually- every other day seems alike but at the end of the day - it's unique in it's own way.

No matter where I started, no matter where I will end- when at the end of the day-
there are no resolutions which are broken and there is nothing to lose.

These days- every morning I wake up and do not plan. And, some days things actually click.
One fine morning, when everything worked and everything is beautiful around.
Do we still need some resolutions?

May be today was the right day and you made a resolution for the next week and lost the opportunity which knocked your door.

Resolutions are just a process to keep yourself going.

Trying to keep going on happily everyday.

Hope this one works!!

TAINTED

The voices crying,
howling and roaring,

I hear the heresy
reject and proceed.
Mid way - the blood bleeds.
It asks and none answer.

The wait is interminable.
The jist incomparable.
It perhaps have blended in our soul too.
The city's subversion of rural innocence.
Give and take is the final solution.

We destroyed,
the little believes we had.


Shattered.
