It’s been around six months since i watched Taare Zameen Par... But the influence, the effect and the impression has been great enough to post this even now :D :D. The movie opens doors to the enriching, fantastical and fantastic world of Ishaan, whose world is not just confined to text books and exams. The kid, after being misunderstood by his own parents, goes on to pursue a journey to discover himself through the eyes of his art teacher. Aamir Khan, standing tall, like in his other movies, has put up a spectacular show with his extraordinary skills. The kid(very cute with those teeth of his :P :P that make him look more like a rabbit :P ) surely succeeds to make sure that his message reaches the audience of all ages and backgrounds :D . The music { my fav being “maa” , n then a difficult choice b/w “kholo kholo” and “bum bum bole” :P specially when they dance on “bum chik bum bum chik bum bum chik” :P /) =)) } is cool n sensitive at the same time :D. The superb dialogues, the extraordinary performances, the cool music and the complete idea behind the movie is just so perfect; it can make me watch the movie a million more times.

Howsoever, the best part of the movie is it’s very unique way of making the audience realize mistakes ; that all of us, sometime or the other, commit, not even caring how they effect the psychology of the kid , who we so badly want to lead a SUCCESSFUL life; forgetting how success is not synonymous with happiness and satisfaction! In today’s world of 98% cut-offs /), this movie explores the world beyond a-99-in-physics,-a-100-in-mathematics,-a-96-in-english-stuff and lets us think beyond, about a world that is NOT a dream world, but a world that exists within our hearts! A world that has humans, with love, hope, compassion, intellect and more than anything else, a passion for what they love! It inspires me to chase my dreams, live for what i like, and face the world around me , if that has to be it!

Love this movie! :D >:D<

YOU there?

Yesterday, when i called up a friend after almost a week, i was quite relieved to discover everyone still remembers me :P . Ummm, well, i have been all busy throughout the week, and i could not take out time to call up a friend or anything ( no excuses there :P ). All these days, i did not make out much how badly i have been missing all my close friends, until i actually talked to one yesterday, only to discover they still love me, care for me and are there for me :) .

What is strange about me is that i am not so-very-good at expression( i strongly believe this : ), but when it comes to my close friends, i’d like to do anything and everything to make them believe n realize what they really mean to me. It is all the more astounding to discover how a little gesture of care, a little action of kindness, a little word of concern can move hearts :O . What surprises me most is how badly we need to express our real self to people around us, just to let them know we are there for them. Sometimes, we lose touch with old friends, people who had been so significant in our life at one time, and are not even a part of it in the present-now :O. Was it a caring word you missed to say? Was it a friendly gesture you forgot to give? Was it a helping hand you did not care to lend? Or was it just a little expression of love you were too busy to let them have from you? Life is a journey, agreed. You go on meeting new people, agreed. You begin to get little time for the real old friends in your busy life when they are away, agreed. But if you take that extra little effort to stay connected, offer that extra little word to stay alive in hearts, pass on a little smile to keep your mates cheered up; won’t you find out sooner or later that it was so worth it? :-??

All this, i am not putting down for people to read; but this i am putting down for me to remember! I gotta remind my own self, what hugeeeeeee place these friends have got in my life; remind myself of the sweet , mast, tafree-full, cherished moments i have spent with them, remind myself of what contribution each one of them has in making me the real person i am today, remind myself of how much i miss them now that all of us are away and busy AND lastly, remind myself to remind them of what a special bond we share with each other :).

Love for friends is important, but expression of your love is equally important! So if you haven’t called up an old friend for weeks together (coz you were too busy to do anything but work) , get up, get going, call up, talk, plan a little get together, share a little word, exchange some moments of your life, and maybe, just maybe, you might be the second happiest person in this world :D (the first one being obviously ME, blessed with friends that i have been blessed with ;) ).

Don’t care if they haven’t remembered you for long, remind them to keep you close to their heart :D ;), coz they so much deserve to have you :D

All of us are so busy asking each other “ you there?” that sometimes we forget to ask our own self, if we are there for our loved ones !

Maybe it’s time to ask yourself, “YOU there?” ;)

Painting Your life, YOUR way :D

While i was off to get some medicines, i saw this little girl on the road with the most brilliant smile stuck on her face, sweetest and cutest. It got me wondering :-? . What cud be so amusing for this little girl on the road who looked quite lonely to me, with no elder around.

It gets me thinking...how every other person consider their life worth being converted into a bestseller novel, how each of us feel that it’s me who is playing the central character in their life. How every time, we are so engrossed with the way things are turning out for us, n how deeply each of us are entangled with the proceedings of our lives.

The other day, when i was with my cousin, who is ten years old, mausi got her this crown !! She looked like a perfect princess with the thing on her head. She was supposed to! :) :D ..

But isn’t this the deepest of our desires, to play a princess in the movie of our life? Life shows all colours. To some, it shows the lighter shades :D. To some, it shows the darker ones : . Though the fact that actually paints your life, is how YOU perceive the colours of your life! That differentiates the tough from the feeble, the strong from the meek, the burly from the meager, the expressive from the submissive!! It is so much completely in your hands, how you get things turned up for you, at least most of the times, if not all! One can smile in a calamity, or shed tears for a little lost pencil. I am not though making people believe that there problems are so little, so small!

But if one learns the art of facing it like a superman, mustering all the strength they have, making the best use of all the elements available; rather than acting like a Cinderella, depending on the fate to somehow work for you;it becomes a hell lot easier; :D

Not just for you, but for the other ten people who care for you, love you, and are concerned for you! There is so much to learn from the world around! There is so much to see! With a sportive heart, everything becomes so much easier :D, coz in the end, it’s you who has got the right to paint your life! Nobody else!

So much to learn from this mysterious smile of a stranger :O :D ;)

Keep smiling :D
