Fear

My life stopped,
The progress was blocked,
The time frozen,
When I let the fear in contemplation.

THE CHANGE

Things never change! They remain the same as they were in the past and as they are now. Standing on the edge of this cliff, I see the world as I saw it yesterday, day before and the days that passed by. The deep blue fathomless ocean that lies hundreds of feet beneath my feet never stopped trying to reach me with its engulfing waves. The deep forest, that stretched its hands behind me, never stopped trying to lure me into its endless darkness. The unbounded blue sky never stopped its trials to meet the ocean, never stopped enticing me into its limitless extents and never stopped filling my life with the light of hope. The roads into the woods, the roads down the hill never stopped casting their spell on me, to walk on them and reach a place anew. Yet here I am standing at the same old place led by the same old road. Nothing around me changed. It was I who lost myself to changes. From an innocent child seeking the moon and stars to one whom time has changed for good and for bad. And here I stand today, standing at the edge of this cliff, looking at the CHANGE.

Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna...

Shahrukh Khan, a football player, married to Preity Zinta, a fashion magazine editor. They have a kid too. Now Shahrukh becomes limp in a road mishap and ends up becoming a football coach at a kids school. Preity is always busy with her work and gives very less time to her family.
Result: Shahrukh is unhappy with his relationship because of his ego hassles with Preity on her success and his inabilities in life. With his erratic behaviour, he annoys Preity too.

Coming to Rani and Abhishek. Abhishek loves Rani a lot. He's a very romantic and loving husband even after 4 years of their marriage(and her inability to give birth to a child). Rani has some extraterrestrial problem with Abhishek that you never understand even after the movie ends. He is a jovial and happy person and she is an irksome female.
Result: She is unhappy for unknown reasons and cheeses him off with her rather harassing behaviour.

Rani and Shahrukh board trains at almost the same time at the same station and due to some stupid incidents become friends. Their conversation is always about their spouses....bitching about their spouses, thinking of breaking such a loveless(according to them) relation, cribbing and crying for silly or unknown reasons. Now, empty mind is devil's workshop. So, how can these two jobless, frustrated with life people spend their time when their spouses are working like trojan's in their offices...they propose and start an extra marital affair. They'll start roaming and romancing on the streets of new york like two young college sweethearts not caring about the fact that they are married. When Abhishek and Preity meet( business or formal meets), they discuss about strengthening their marital relationships (for they love their spouses a lot) and when Rani and SRK meet, it will be like a crib session

If Rani and Shahrukh, carelessly, start painting the town red, how can they escape certain curious eyes. Abhishek's father(Amitabh) and Shahrukh's mother see them romancing on the street. Amitabh gets a heart attack and before dying tells Rani -"mere bete ko chod do. tum usse pyar nahin karti. isme tumhari koi galthi nahin hai par main apne bete ko khush dekhna chahta hoon".

Now Shahrukh and Rani decide to break their extramarital relationship and confess to their spouses.
Result: Preity asks Shahrukh to leave the house and slaps him across the face. Just a slap for his two-timing, huh! Now Abhishek is a nice guy and he can't slap his wife. He breaks everything in the house and asks her to leave the house too.

In their floods of tears, Shahrukh and Rani call up each other and tell that their spouses are angry now and will forgive them as time passes on. What they don't tell is that they are driven out of their houses by their spouses.
Result: Shahrukh doesn't know that Rani is single now and Rani about Shahrukh's regained bachelor hood.

Abhishek meets Rani after 3 years to invite her to his wedding. At the marriage, Abhishek and Preity(guest at the wedding ceremony) ask Rani to go find her true love. Now this is called maturity and practicality. She meets Shahrukh and they live happily ever after.

Moral of the story: Extra marital affair works and that too without destroying any bridges!

Rani and Shahrukh will really annoy you and make you hate them in the movie. They are two sick people and if you are a Shahrukh and Rani fan, Do not watch the movie. You'll hate them, TRULY. Preity is ok. Abhishek's character is sketched well. He is the only person in the movie who has no blots on his character. On the whole there's nothing in the movie that you can watch, it has way too many cheap and annoying scenes than pleasant. Performances as expected from Shahrukh, Rani, Preity and Abhishek, are brilliant. So, here's a toast to Karan Johar's first failure(or the least sucessful film).

Eye of the Storm

I've never been so sad

I've never been so sad
in such a happy place.

I've never felt this empty,
yet, I'm filled with such disgrace.

I've never felt so alone
in this crowded room of friends.

I never meant to hurt you,
my heart will never mend.

I've never felt this right
about something that is wrong.

I've never told you everything,
and I've known you for so long.

I've never been this close to death,
in such a wonderful place.

I never knew what beauty was
until I saw your crying face.

I've never made the right choice
about anything in life.

I've never wanted to leave you,
yet, I've held the sharpest knife.

I've never tried to understand
the simple things in you.

I've never been so scared,
and I don't know what to do.

I never thought we'd be here,
not knowing what to say.

I've never been this speechless,
is this the price I pay?

I've never gotten over you
and I know I never will.

I've never said good-bye to you,
and I know I never will.

PS:I'm not the poet of this poem

Can u guess wat's special abt this?

White and Not so white

It was one of those days this week when I had no quiz in the morning.One of my Profs whose exam we had just the day before, had already corrected the papers and distributed them in the class.Then,he started writing the correct answers on the board under two headings - white and not so white,as I rummaged through the pages of my answer script searching for a source of getting extra marks.White and Not so white?!?I looked around and found that my friends were equally startled.We didn't have the oppurtunity of looking at the questions after the quiz as it was a question cum answer paper.So,now as we looked at each other's paper,with a little difficulty we could make out that if the colour of of one paper was R-255 G-255 B -255,the other's was R-255 G-251 B-252.And,indeed the options of multiple choice questions were jumbled,values of numericals changed( marginally,though) keeping the overall format the same.Smart way to prevent cheating!!!Now,this makes me wonder- What's next???
As i kept wondering,these ideas came into my mind
* Black and Dark Grey (colour of ink)
* Regular and Bold
* Normal and Abnormal (Font size)

When I enter my Dream World...

As I climb into the bed to retire for the day,
I think of the events that happened today,
And the people whom I met and wished to see,
And the glances we'll exchange if we meet.
How hard i wondered things went this way and that way,
While slowly and unknowingly, I walk on another pathway.
There are people swaying in front of my eyes,
And shadows of many others just passing by.
There are voices I know and few other unknown,
Then I hear a voice which I know as my own.
The situations are real and at times artificial;
The locations fantastical and also real.
As I still slowly and unknowingly unravel my dream,
My eyes open to the world - more real and routine;
The dream is lost and the voices die out,
To face another ordinary day, from the dream I step out.
After a long and tiresome day, when I go to sleep,
I start thinking about things in a manner not so deep,
When I enter a new world, the world of dreams.....
