Rang De...
Watched Rang De Basanti today and promptly fell in love with Kunal Kapoor. I won't risk a review 'coz I guess the consensus is that the movie is brilliant but the end is just over the top. Thus, its just falls short of becoming a masterpiece...
One of my favourite lines in the movie was when Aamir Khan says, that on one side of the college gate life dances to our tune but when we are on the other side we dance to life's tune...I swear, only when you are part of this mad rat-race...do you realise that we are actually running a race where no one wins....and its still so difficult to let go...to forget about the pay check that comes at the end of every month.
And I thought that there are still some who dare to live dangerously on the edge...where life is just about drunken parties, dangerous bike rides, unnecessary brawls, harmless flirting, evening long cricket matches and just ...no responsibilty.
I just had a glimpse of that life with you but it was impossible...it was fun while it lasted but at the end of the day it scared me...its like Aamir Khan singing at the end of every serious conversation, "Su kar mere man ko tune kiya kya eshara..."
But I think of it at times and I realise that it would be such a crazy life and yet so much fun...a life I never got to live...
To pack my bags and head for the hills when I want to without thinking of office...
To go for a bike ride on a full moon night without any fear...
To get drunk and lie on your back and look up at the glaring multitude above...
To get stoned and think of the most beautiful things that I have never thought of...
... a life i never dare live.

we always desire a life that we don't live. but instead lets do something for once that enjoy the life that we have got. i know that it is really very hard to do that.
Khabi kisi to mukamil jahan nahi milta kisi ko zamin to kisi ko aasmah nahi milta.
savya: wah wah...gaur farmayein
Hazaaron khwashein aisi
Ki har khwaish pe dum nikle
Bahut nikle mere armaan
Lekin phir bhi kam nikle
your life, if documented properly would turn into a fairy tale. it's the life of an ordinary man/woman.
maybe seeing a movie on your life would be a great experience. ordinary people are the ultimate adventurers dear, getting a foot-hold somewhere in this rat-race is a big achievement.
and there is no dream-life. ultimately evrything, too long boils down to monotony.
We need to aim for that sort of a life. I guess initially we would have to struggle to come that position when we can pack our bags and move when ever we want to.
I just got to watch the movie. I think to get that sort of a life you need a gang, group. You need to have somebody who can hold the group together or you have to be the one like DJ...we need a rich guy like who can keep spending money and some like minded people guys who follow the funda that life mein jo bhi hain tension nahin lene ka..bas remain chilled out..
