This is an Iranian Film that deals with a brother and sister and their adventures over a lost pair of shoes.. i know the subject can be something very meagre for someone like you and me who possess dozens of pairs...matching almost every dress in our wardrobe... but if you watch the movie you'll know how much it means for someone who has only that one pair and cant afford to even buy a replacement pair..
The story is simple but must say well taken.. though it just shows the routine life of a gardener whos income is just enough to make his 2 children get an education and treat his ill wife at home...but the emotions depicted in some clips are really touching.. the love between the siblings, the way they plan to hide the lost shoes from their parents, the way each one sacrifices for the other...its all jus too touching..
Simple movie with a theme to touch your heart... watched something like this after so many days... jus the right thing for a lazy rainy afternoon.. :)

Kabhi Kabhi…
Kabhi kabhi aditi
zindagi mein yun hi koi apna lagta hai…
Kabhi kabhi aditi
Wo bichchad jaye tho ek sapna lagta hai…
Bas yun hi… but it jus so happens that some relationships that dint mean anything at one time suddenly seem so important to you…some people who were nothing more than jus known people to you suddenly become some special people to you…you feel special, being cared for and being loved…being beside them and spending time with them… I don want to forget the last 3 days I spent being close to some people who mean some lot 2 me nw… I never gave a thought to some relationships… but now I know I’ve got to cherish each and every person given to me in this life…I’ve always been quite a lot selective when it comes to relationships but may be now I’ve learnt that everyone is special in some way or the other and everyone comes into your life with some purpose… some things are jus meant to be cherished… am happy that I’ve learnt to cherish those special things.. :)

Friday Salsa.. :)
Am writing almost about 2 months... i know the few people who once used 2 be regulars on my blog have left... cuz am myself not a regular on my blog.. :)
Was happy after a long long time...don ask why... there r some times when you want reasons to even smile...and no matter how big a reason it is...its jus not enuff to give that happiness to you.. and then there are times like this when you jus feel happy no matter whatever happens to the whole world...you can jus feel happy and make others happy and you feel everything around is so good...may be in normal scientific languages they call it mood swings...but who cares... i am HAPPY...and that is what actually matters at all.. :)
Loads happened in these few days...actually in the last 2 months...went thru almost hell... may be even now the hell persists to show its existence every now and then... but may be its jus that i have and still am learning new ways to shoo the hell outta my life.. am surprizzzed myself how i could have been like what i am now.. how i could be going thru the worst possible in one end and still keeping my temper and senses totally in place in the other end.. don feel its an achievement but it jus feels great...when one part of my life doesnt even know that the other is almost dying.. happens.. but am happy at the end of it all and no matter how dark the tunnel seems i know hope is shining its light at the end of it.. :)
Sometimes friends whom you thought were as important to you as your life...leave you and make you believe that you made a mistake in calling them your friend... but as they say.. so.. "i believe, no matter how good a friend is they are going to hurt you every now and then.. and you must forgive them for that.. " and so you forgive your friends and forget all that happened and go on and on...and may be one day when they cross all limits... you jus... again forgive them and move on... but may be this time you move on and start on a new journey... a journey to find some new friends cuz the ones who left you were not really worth it.. and may be then you realize...life after all isnt so hard to be lived without them.. :)
And so you move on to a new journey and time wont be so unkind not to give you a few moments to make you realize that you deserve a few smiles... a few heartfelt laughs... a few memorable moments that wil become the new memories of your life to overshadow the lost ones... every new day teaches you that your life moves on and so you have to...
This weekend started with some few things that made me so so happy... may be a step towards doing my own things in life...may be doing some things i always dreamt of as being away from clutches...started with some Salsa...Salsa being one of the few things in life that i always wanted to give a try to... i never thought i wil have so much fun...it was so good dancing dancing and jus dancing... you almost forget the whole world... you dont care whatever happens in the world cuz you are in a new world... thanks to cheekku for taking me into this new world... in d afternoon suddenly she calls up and says your salsa classes start 2day...so be ready and come for it... never thought wud make it thru...... met so many wonderful people.. feels good to see that you can actually dance and even people want to dance with you.. :) had a great great time... i dunno whatever i have written about my first experience with salsa is actually less than even an underestimate but for the first time am lost for words... it has been one of the experiences that made me feel so much at peace... finally atleast something in life that i always wanted to do... HAPPY.. is all i can say.., Satiated.. :)
Then it was the next good thing... having a peaceful relaxing coffee and dessert @ ccd... coming back home in style in the middle of nite... riding on the roads as if you rule them.. :) have a long long chat with some special friends... and then the greatest good thing of the weekend... one of my best best friend is leaving country...i mite not see this friend ever again in life... but am so happy... cuz this is something i have seen him waiting for since the time i met him.. and finally it came to happen for him... i almost felt like double wishes coming true for me at one shott.. :)
it was something different this time as he was leaving...it was a mixed feeling of happiness but at the same time i had this fear of missing him... but may be my happiness overpowered everything... it dint give me time enuff to react... i felt some emotions... dunno what it was... happiness/fear/sadness/satiety... may be jus HAPPY for him.. :)
finished the salsa friday with a walk with kiddo @ abt 1 in d nite...cudnt really believe the streets were so beautiful in the grey moonlite.. and the wind was jus so amazing...wud have made any sane person become HAPPY.. :)

Yun Hi Nahi Dil Lubhata Koi.. :)
Tera mujhse
hai pehle ka naata koi...
yun hi nahi dil
lubhata koi...
How true... and how much to be thought about!!?? well well not here to really open up a philosophical journey about something... this is something that struck me from the most recent movie that i watched... Jane Tu.. Ya Jane na.. :)
Great movie... usual storyline... predictable ending... but still enjoyed each and every moment of it.. reached the thertre a good 30 minutes after the show started.. hopefully din miss anything to regret about.. :) and don even ask how i reached the theatre...travelled almost 40 kms to reach there... was in office... and knew wasnt going 4 the show as cheekku had some errands.. but luckily she calls up at 5:30 and tells me..chal yaar jane de... chal apan movie chalte hain...kya ho jayega jyada se jyada... and ohh... all i cud tell her was ki babes if i start now from my office i cant reach city anytime beofre 7!!..well who cares...giv it a try...reached madhya kailash at 7 and the show starts at 7 as well.. :) no auto is ready 2 go 2 Sathyam...thanks to the traffic...there was jus no way anyone cud have made a way out.. so wat next?? have never crossed a signal when green... not in chennai... not on a day when the traffic is so terrific.. :) thanks to chekkuu did all these crazy things 2 get into somewhere...walked to gandhi nagar... somehow managed to get an auto till kottur...and then wat!!?? almost emotionally blackmailed the guy to take us 2 Sathyam... got d ticket from the Window.. and finally we were there... our cozy seats waiting for us.. :)
so what if some part of the movie was over already...as if we missed so much of the story...actually some said even if yu wud have missed the whole movie yu wudnt have really missed anything..ha ha.. but ya twas gud 2 watch it... after so many days watched some decent original comedy in a movie.. and even felt gud...the movie has been taken wonderfully.. with some realities of relationships being shown jus the way they exist in these days.. :)
hmmm... so next time yu start liking someone... well well... may be it cud be that special someone whos meant jus for you.. :)
cheers... Jane Tu... Ya Jane na... Maane tu.. Ya Mane na.. :)
