Nasha-Nasha

I had a bad night yesterday. A severe headache coupled with so many unanswered questions. Last time I faced something similar was when I was trying to solve the IRIS puzzles on the IIM-Indore site.

Anyways I don't think I'm still over it. After reaching back home, only thing I did before surrendering to sleep was to go through various sites and posts and try to get all my questions answered which were in some way or other were disturbing me.
Did get answers to few of them but at the end realised it was all beyond my thinking and imaginations.

The Aatma - Parmatma concept, the body - soul concept, the heaven -hell concept, the dream-reality concept, they don't entice me. I'm not saying I'm above all this, its just that they all are way above my thinking. I think I'm a very "chota sa" human being with little or no frustrations towards the life or the system for that matter. Yes, I do feel dejected sometimes, I do feel defeated sometimes but to link all this with the aatma thing is just too much to ask from me.


I watched "No-Smoking" yesterday and if somebody asks me whether to see it or not I would say it is like the "saap chuchundar ka khel". If you don't see it you'll miss a phenomenon and if you see it you'll end up asking yourself, why did I come here. No, its not that movie is bad, but you need to have a super IQ, EQ, SQ and an AQ(art-quotient) to understand what the movie was trying to say exactly, or maybe you need to see it again and again and again to understand each and every metaphor that the movie had.

I'm no Einstein or an Osho, the fight between the body and soul doesn't make any sense to me. But may be for Anurag Kashyap it did. May be for hundreds of people from the aam-junta it will make a sense. People who can think out of the box, but for a average and above -average intelligent movie-goers it won't, trust me it won't. And that's why so much of criticism for this movie. Coming out of the theatre I could see people holding their, shaking it contemplating what went in last twenty mins.
I also had lot of questions and I'm sure a day will come when I'll have answers to all of them.

Its a movie you must watch and then regret why you watched it. Its that kind of movie which will make you think and will get you nightmares (I had few last night!!!)

98863*****

Vivek : Hieeee!


Jhum : Hiiiieee! Where were you all these days ?

Vivek : Why??

Jhum : U didn't call me that's why.

Vivek : U were missing me kya ? :-)

Jhum : Why will I miss you, just that I had loads of free time and I didn't have anyone to talk to..

Vivek : You could have called me then.. Hamesha mujhe hi call karna padega kya!!

Jhum : Ya I could have, but why should I call first.


Vivek
: Arey... You won't become small if you call first, infact I'll also feel good that you do remember me sometimes.

Jhum : That's what I don't want you to realise...

Vivek : Pata hai Jhum, we lose contact with so many people whom we used to call as friend at one point of time just because we think that the other person should call first. Comeon yar, what difference does it make who ever calls first.

Jhum : But not all of us is free like you.

Vivek :Its not about being free, its just about managing your time. Don't tell me that it is difficult for a person to take out 5 mins from their busy schedule and call a friend.

Jhum : It is!!!

Vivek : You know earlier I used to call all my close friends atleast once a week and now I hardly call anyone.

Jhum : See... Even you have changed.

Vivek : People like you have made me change.

Jhum : Now how is that.

Vivek : Coz even I'm fed up of calling people everytime. I feel they don't need me anymore, not that they needed me earlier.

Jhum : Tum pagal ho gaye ho... Phone karne ya nahi karne se dosti thodi khatm ho jati hai.

Vivek : You won't understand this Jhum. In hostel days if some friends used to smile at a girl toh woh bhi sabko pata chal jata, and now I know nothing about many of my friends. I don't even know which city they are in.

Jhum :That's your fault

Vivek : Galti kabhi ek side se nahi hoti hai

Jhum : Comeon Vivek, itni choti choti baton ko dil se nahi lagate.

Vivek : Dil se kaun laga raha hai. One day my room-mate and I were discussing about the calls we get apart from family members. and after some research we realised that in last one week only calls we got were from those beautiful ladies who wanted to sell their credit cards or give personal loans.. (Vivek whispers " Actually we need something else " ;-) )

Jhum : Hmmm... and wat about my calls.

Vivek : Its always outgoing and never incoming.

Jhum : Hmmm ok :-) So do u mean to say that you want your phone to be continuosly ringing.

Vivek : Nah.. not that way, but I do like it when somebody calls me just to say "Hi" or ask about my whereabouts

Jhum : Ok I'll call you every now and say Hi and will disconnect.. Howzzat???

Vivek : Very Funny!!

Jhum : Hey that's my dialogue.. Copycat!!!

Vivek : Whatever!!!

Jhum : Ok Vivek. I'll tell all my friends to call all their friends atleast once a week or in two weeks and say "Hi" coz vivek wants people to keep in touch... happy now??

Vivek : Happy now??? Tumse baat karta hoon to aise hi Happy rahta hoon ..

Jhum : Tum nahi sudhroge,bus chance milna chahiye... Chalo I will sleep now, have to get up early tomorrow.

Vivek : You also won't change, hamesha neend ki hi padi rahti hai...

Jhum : :-) I'm really very tired, Will talk to you some other day.

Vivek : Ok, No problems... Chal Good night

Jhum : Good night.. bye

Vivek : Bye




P.S. - For all those money minded people, STD rates have come down drastically, its just 1rs min now and local calls are almost free, so pick up the phone now, and call a friend whom you have not spoken to for a long time, may be he/she is also thinking about you but just hesitant to call you. And like you, may be he/she also likes it when somebody calls them for no reason but just to say a simple "HI"....

Ek Shaqs

Details to come, but as of now this song is doing something to me... Just wanted to share the lyrics here... Its a new song by Abhijeet Sawant... Amazing song !!!


(ek shaqs raaste mein kahin choot gaya tha
us haadse ke baad, yeh dil toot gaya tha) - 2


woh shaqs jiske kaandhe pe sir rakhe mein soya
seene se lagke jiske kayi baar mein roya
jiski zulfon ke khusboo mein raaton mein khoya
jis jism ki barsaat mein yeh jism bheegoya
(ek din kisi baat pe jab woh rooth gaya tha
us haadse ke baad, yeh dil toot gaya tha) - 2
ek shaqs raaste mein kahin choot gaya tha
us haadse ke baad, yeh dil toot gaya tha


rehta hoon qaid abhi jiski yaadon ke pehare mein
hai labz jiska zinda meri baahon ke ghere mein
jiske khwaabon ko maine neend mein sanjoya
jiske ashqko ko maine apani ankhon pe piroya
(ek din kisi baat pe jab woh rooth gaya tha
us haadse ke baad, yeh dil toot gaya tha) - 2
ek shaqs raaste mein kahin choot gaya tha
us haadse ke baad, yeh dil toot gaya tha


ek shaqs raaste mein kahin choot gaya tha
us haadse ke baad, yeh dil toot gaya tha
ek shaqs raaste mein... raaste mein

Jhum : Pervert mind... NO...
Vivek : Then
Jhum : Emotionally close..
Vivek : Yar par there are lot of tensions attached with it..
Jhum : Aren't u attached to me emotionally??
Vivek : But u r an imaginary character.. right ? :-)
Jhum : Forget it.. this isn't going anywhere.. Just accept it that girls have the birthright to ask questions.

Criss-Cross

Random Thoughts!!!!


Jhum
: You know Vivek, sometimes I wonder why do things have to change.

Vivek: They change for better.

Jhum: Come on, Don't give me a bookish answer, you also know that's not true.

Vivek : Who said that?

Jhum : Don't tell me that you are happy with how the things are shaping out for you.

Vivek: If I say I'm happy then I'll be fooling myself, but to be frank it isn't that bad also

Jhum : But is it that Good?

Vivek: Well its all in the mind...

Jhum : Again bookish!!!

Vivek: You know what Jhum, whenever you are at cross-roads in life, whichever path
you choose, it doesn't matter, you'll always feel the other path would have been better.

Jhum: No, I never think that.... I never regret on any of my decisions.

Vivek: I'm not saying you repent, you will at some point of time think that wish you would have taken the other path.

Jhum : So what's wrong in that.?

Vivek: When did I say that this is wrong, I'm just trying to say that we often compare
things and that leads to depression.

Jhum: I'm not depressed.

Vivek : But you are not liking the things that are changing right??

Jhum: Hey.. one min... you can't always be happy.

Vivek : Its all relative, whatever makes you happy now will not always make you happy.

Jhum : I know that, but still...

Vivek: still what?

Jhum : Things should not change as long as you are happy with them

Vivek: Hey, that's what life is all about...

Jhum: F****** life theories!!!!

Vivek : Ha Ha Ha

Jhum: Why are you laughing

Vivek: You make me smile...

Jhum: How many times you gonna tell this.

Vivek: As long as you make me smile

Jhum: So what will you do when I'm not there to make you smile.

Vivek : Somebody else will make me smile :-) , You see.. everyone in this world is redundant and can be replaced, this might sound harsh but is true !!!!

Jhum : Agree!!!! But you know Vivek, how much ever fundaes you give, how much mature you try to sound, people will still think you as a KID !!!!

Vivek : Jhum, know what, things will change... and will change for better !!!!

Howzzat!!!!
