A New Beginning!!

2008 s round the corner..a new beginning!! indeed!!
i have started off with changing the look of my blog :)
sadly blogger does not offer much in the shades of blue, ob my fav :D, so picked tis one!!
pretty refreshing..unlike the stuff on this blog :D
and i guess this one's gonna stay as in i m getting this feeling 'this is the one' :):)

anyways as for me..lots needs to be done and undone!
my hair need a change..a cut will do..may be some hideous flicks to scare the hell outta my friends :D but 'mummi ko na kehna..kyonki mummy ko nahi hai pata!!' :D:D
on the serious side, need to join dance class, restart yoga, read loads of marathi books, catch up with studies, learn continental cooking, restart badminton....
bah...
the list is just overwhelming...
at least the spirit s in the right place..
as Swami Vivekananda says 'Arise, Awaken and stop not till the goal is reached!' (dunno how i still remember school days ka sayings!! )
Nightflier has started..wat bout u ppl..post and let everyone know :):)
till we meet again...ARISE, AWAKEN....

wish u all a cheerful new year ahead!!
adios 2007!

illusions ...

i was in mumbai sometime back and this peculiar incident happened with me...
had promised meself that would surely write about it..somehow could not (working lady saga :P)
well anyways, sad stories apart :D, here u go...

we were having lunch at this simple hotel in colaba, when suddenly, two hands poked my shoulder from the window (me was sitting beside the window giving an exotic view to the streets of aamchi mumbai:)) first i was startled then it scared the hell outta me..
two beggar kids, were asking for some food..i m pretty bad at handling this cos i dont like the whole idea, of giving food for free..well thinking i was, to somehow wriggle out of the situation, dont know what struck me..i took my bag, took out a five star i had bought for emergencies, and gave it to the kid..wild with joy it went to its other friends..the most astonishing thing happened then, instead of eating it him/her(dont remember the gender) self, the child gave the "5 *" to its younger sibling and both finished it happily..taken over by the whole emotional scene, i also took some snaps of them (now i know why the faarainers find indian beggars so amusing :))
although, the beggar kids' other friends thronged us for more '5 eesstarss' later, and i also found out that their whole family was into this begging business (i did feel sorry for meself then), i was happy cos i had made someone happy!!

hmmm...made someone happy...
taking a look back, i realize, what i gave to the children was momentary happiness..
after a day or two when, they or their parents could not find anything to eat, those kids would be left in the vicious misery..
is it always like this? may be i m thinking too deep, over a mundane matter..but it is worth giving a thought...there are people who are happy over small things in life and there are people who ooze happiness, like they dont know what happiness is?? may be the small kids had not even realized, that they were happy and they were in such euphoric state...may be the giver (me) was aware of what happiness (chocolat) m giving, but the taker (the kids) just knew that they r getting something exotic to eat and it needs to be eaten...so simple yet so complex, isnt it??

illusions i say are good for health :D
hadnt it been for writing and this blog, i was surely a goner ...:):)

till we meet again, stay simple..

p.s. good i dint write this blog then :D

Wat a comeback!!!!

M blogging after ages...and there could not have been a much better reason to make a come back...
Madhuri Dixit is back :):):)

dear madam,
its a pleasure to see u act,dance and emote...
and your latest movie was a treat !!! i was never sooooo taken over by someone :)
the dancing and the performance is just awe inspiring !!
speechless...is the word...when u danced on the very drab and ordinary title track, i was just speechless :) accepted that a musical needed a really deep, meaningful music score; just hats off to u for lifting the movie from nowhere to everyone's heart!!!
i dont want to review the movie, as there s, truly, nothing new about it...we have the usual culprits like poor script (believable in first half, but which flies off to lala land in the second half), not so great music...on the positives, its got great set design (thanks to cinematographer turned director), all characters are wonderful and i liked the whole 'shaher ko kala ki jarurat hoti hai' wala funda!!
but madam, its u, u and only u who has ruled throughout the movie...
i dont remember a single scene, when u were around, and my heart dint skip a beat :)
it just went mmmmmmm....:):)
once again i thank you.
it was a totally incredible experience, watching someone do what he s best at...ur dancing skills are just too much to write about :) and i dont really want to exert myself to come up with any more suitable adjectives :D
i would just say...ye dil maange more :)
love u loads!!!

your loyal fan,
nightflier !!

P.S. for beginners 'Aaja Nach le' s Madhuri Dixit s first movie after a 6 yrs sabbatical...and its much more than worth a dekho..u ll realise it when she dances :)
rest is great!! happy reading...
