Still Beautiful!

"Raat baaki ...baat baaki ... "...



To my mind i still cannot decide which made a bigger impression ...the voice or the graceful shoulders moving in perfect harmony ....."Kashti jawan dil ki toofan se takra gayi"...The mind in its infancy w.r.t matters between men and women did not ...understand...Instead it sought to simplify ..Good and Evil ..No grey

a storm brews.. Doordarshan is confusing me ..WHY are they showing this movie ? and this song in particular ..Don't they know better ?I wish for "Rukawat" or "Nirma" but no .. not when you want it ..not when you want a moment to reflect on a moment of perfect beauty unleashed upon you ...for we have been taught to restrain ...and ecstasy in the face of such perfection is folly ...

"Hona hai Jo ho jaane do " ...Three years since then ...standard operating guideline .. "a Girl is a Man's worst enemy " ...and yet this incongruity remains ..how can something so "beautiful" emerge from the clans of my worst enemy (Doordarshan repeats the movie ..they sure knew how to emphasise !! ) ...By now the voice is Asha Bhonsle and the face is .. well .. beautiful

"Kise nahin marne dogi ..Yeh kya ho gaya tumhe ...tumhare maathe par yeh paseena kyun hai ...Kiski maut ke baare mein soch rahi thi.. meri huh?? ...arre meri maut aur zindagi to ab tumhare saath hai ....aur pyaar karne waale maut se dara nahin karte "
Testosterone happens ... bravado in its extremity
a truce ? ?
"Deewane parwane marne se darte nahin ..." blah blah...
"aa dekh le hai kya mazaa Dil haar ke " ...:) ... a couple of "I-Wish-I-Had-Not"'s later ..cynicism sets in .. a lot of practicality sets in .. i still love movies ... but i view them critically ...
"thinking" about whether i enjoyed them or not ...and yes they hold NO relevance to my life.. after all they must have spent some money on the standard disclaimer

Ten years later .. spirit survives ..."aagaz yeh hai to anjaam hoga haseen"

Hmmm Let's think about it :) That is the standard operating procedure these days :) ...procrastination

And while i do ..i come across this snippet of news ..about a funeral .. ......The slender shoulders moving in tandem to the music

long ,lustrous hair ..and a smile that just threatens to play on the lips ...and eyes that look straight at you ...without fear ...

Farewell i say to you ..and to a part of me

"Socho na dekho na ...dekho to..jaanejaan ...."..."mujhe pyaar se "
A swansong ... ...The image in my mind fades i think .. I cannot see through the veil that covers my eyes... a predicament that plagued the subject ...
in life and in death .. viewed in ..
black and white ..and yet ..
BEAUTIFUL!
