So many of us are living two lives. One- on Internet and the other – ‘whatever remains from it’.
Between my 15-25 ; I used to have some 4/ 5 real good friends; who I used to spend so much ‘REAL’ time with. My energies used to get invested in impressing and having good times with those 4/5 people only.
Very few Love stories in this ‘FB generation’ grow old. The infant mortality rate of love stories is the highest these days. People are confusing ‘Relationships’ with ‘Pre-Paid re-charge cards’. Unfortunately – ‘love’ these days serves the purpose of an exterior emulsion paint: ’Baahar kee deewar badhiya – andar seelan & deemak’ etc. And the question they ask is -”Bhaiya yeh deewaar TIKTI kyun nahi hai?”
Asha Bhonsle & Parveen Babi sang it right -way back in 1982:-
Jawaani jaan-e-man haseen dilruba
Milein do dil jawaan nisaar ho gaya
Shikaari khud yahaan shikaar ho gaya
Yeh kya sitam huwa
Yeh kya zulam huwa
Yeh kya ghazab huwa
Yeh kaise kab huwa
Na jaanoon main na jaane woh, AAha…
(Repeat this AAha.. in your mind ; with a painful sound emerging from your very lower abdomen .
OK Let us practice – ‘AAha…’ )
Whenever a client books me for work at a new city – the first two things I do is- Google about it and know about the best Parks / Lakes in there. Of late, I have stopped doing this- for I can brag about having travelled India; some 3-4 times. Why do I search for parks / lakes? Well – I also suffer a few addictions. One of them is a ‘Jogging Track’; which is situated -the closest to the nature.
While travelling to Mumbai for an event in 2003; I found this fun article on a piece of newspaper- which was placed below my Vada-Paav. I am happy I could save the paper.
