more on friendship...

"zindagi milke bitayenge,
hale-dil gaake sunayenge,
hum toh saat rung hai,
yeh jahan rangeen banayenge..."





i was thinking about this on my way to work today. in rock on (the movie) the friendship between arjun rampal and farhan akthar in the initial stages was as strong as it could get, wasn't it? I mean atleast from arjun's view point. no questions asked, always ready to fight for his friend - gives the competitor that tries to act smart with farhan dhapadhap! solid heart2heart friendship. with an opportunity to meet sanju in january, this got me thinking how times have changed and how one misses that quality of selfless friendship.

in reality, friendships have to bear the weight of other commitments in life that either separate you physically or makes you reassign priorities which breaks that basic thread of the relationship. how complex certain things are!

i miss that dhapadhap friendship and don't know if it might ever happen again in life...

rock on

amazing lyrics from this favorite "Rock On" number. very thought provoking!
each time i feel i am not being myself at home - i am inspired to see "Rock On" again!
dedicate this to anita:

"aankhon mey jiske koi toh khwaab hai
khush hai wohi joh thoda betaab hai
jindagi mey koi aarazoo kijiye
phir dekhiye

Ootho mey jiske, koi toh geet hai
woh harey bhi toh, uski hi jeet hai
dil mey jo geet hai, gunguna lee jiye
phir dekhiye

yaadon mey jiske, kisi ka naam hai
sapnon key jaisi, uski har shaam hai
koi toh ho jise, apna dil dijiye
phir dekhiye

khwaab buniye zara,
geet suniye zara
phool chuniye zaraaa
phir dekhiye..."

Gin Soaked Boys

We used to have "a song for the day" when Sanju baba was around. Stopped sometime back after life's other burdens overcame the urge to stand and stare at the boughs!
After hearing this song today on the way to work, I couldn't help but send it out as the song for today! I found the tune and the lyrics amazing - especially the ones that are underlined! This one is for you Sanju - I love you!

I was actually inspired by a new friend - Magno that made me get into the mood to reopen my blog! I realized that I actually skipped one full year without a single post! Thanks Magno...


The Divine Comedy -Gin Soaked Boys


I'm the darkness in the light
I'm the leftness in the right
I'm the rightness in the wrong
I'm the shortness in the long
I'm the goodness in the bad
I'm the saneness in the mad
I'm the sadness in the joy
I'm the gin in the gin-soaked boy, the gin-soaked boy
Ba ba ba ba de la da...

I'm the ghost in the machine
I'm the genius in the gene
I'm the beauty in the beast
I'm the sunset in the east
I'm the ruby in the dust
I'm the trust in the mistrust
I'm the Trojan horse in Troy
I'm the gin in the gin-soaked boy, the gin-soaked boy
Ba ba ba ba de la da...

I'm the tiger's empty cage
I'm the mystery's final page
I'm the stranger's lonely glance
I'm the hero's only chance
I'm the undiscovered land
I'm the single grain of sand
I'm the Christmas morning toy
I'm the gin in the gin-soaked boy, the gin-soaked boy
Ba ba ba ba de la da...

I'm the world you'll never see
I'm the slave you'll never free
I'm the truth you'll never know
I'm the place you'll never go
I'm the sound you'll never hear
I'm the course you'll never steer
I'm the will you'll not destroy
I'm the gin in the gin-soaked boy, yeah, the gin-soaked boy
Ba ba ba ba de la da...

I'm the half-truth in the lie
I'm the why not in the why
I'm the last role in the die
I'm the old school in the tie
I'm the spirit in the sky
I'm the catcher in the rye
I'm the twinkle in her eye
I'm Jeff Goldblum in "The Fly"
Who am I?
