DISCLAIMER: Merko gaana nhi aata but...

Baithe baithe kya karenge karna hai kuch kaam

Shuru karo antakshri leke Prabhu ka naam

Bolo Ram ram ram

Bolo shyaam shyaam shyaam

Leke lakkhan ka naam shuru karo ye swaang

N se gaao @kaagazkefool

R.I.P Irffan Khan and Rishi Kapoor.

These 24 hours might be one of the saddest 24 hrs in the history of Bollywood. The loss of both the legendary actors, Irffan Khan and Rishi Kapoor was sad and it some where felt like a personal loss to everyone.

But like, why does this feel so personal?

Most of us never even met them in person and never really talked to them. We just saw them on big screen, or in interviews. But still this felt personal. Losing them. Even when we arent even related to them personally.

If we see, bollywood and films, its been more than just cinema and acting. Movies have been a part of our life. There is a movie associated and attached to almost every age of our life and most of the situations. From the dialogues to the songs, its all in our heart. We have a song for the first love to the first heart break. We have a song for our parents and another for our friends. We have memories associated with films. Movies have become a part of us. The dialogues are within us, embedded on our heart. The dialogues we used to troll our friends, the dialogues we said to our crush, the whole Bollywood is not just movies, but its whats make us feel different in all this busy life and helps us escape the hustle and stress we have in our daily livelihood.

All these films we play dumb charades with to all the songs we play antakshri with, all these are attached to us. take them out of us and we lose something of us. Take that fiction out of us and we lose some part of us.

In this world with problems and struggles we face, cinema gives us a break. At the end, this cinema gives us hope, it keeps us going somewhere or the other , telling us anything is possible, there is space for dream, there can be happy endings.

And both Irffan Khan and Rishi Kapoor, they excelled in how they portrayed it. The way they showed us every emotion just like the way they are. Without over exaggerating. They showed us the real faces in this unrealistic fiction universe. We saw two people portraying characters which were just like us, just like normal humans, in a universe of imagination. They didn't just act and earned, they portrayed real people. They were the ones who made us think for those 2 hours when a film is played, that whats going on in the film, is real. They gave us someone to relate to. Someone with no super powers, no extra ordinary ability or talents. But just someone like a common regular man. A common human. Just like the people we see around us. In real life.

So, in those 24hrs when we lost them, we didnt just lost 2 actors, we lost that part of our life. We lost that little hope at the end of every film. We lost a part of ourself, cause a part of ourself is Bollywood, and they were a part of that universe. The part, which we believed in.

So, where ever they both are. They are still stitched to us. In those memories they gave us, without even meeting us. In a those songs, in all those movies, in all those films, which won't and cant die.

To friend ...

It was 2014

When I joined here

My first ever company

N during trainings

I found SM1..you😂

Never thought we could be friends

But somehow we became

You...my first friend of my first ever job

My training mate

Colleague...team member of synergy

Washroom partner

Bus wala gossips ...do u remember

My all chapad chapad used to make ur mornings bad

But u never said ...chup Kar na yar😂

N Kaushal Ka last day ...

Someone who wiped my tears

When in between we were into different teams

Still connected

How I can forget our antakshri on Skype

N jabra wale calls

My happiness was doubled when I got to know we both were in TCOE

Laga tha in btwn things I have missed ..or something has changed

But destiny has different plans for us

Night shifts ugly selfies

Late night talks

Talks about our problems

Smiling together

Laughing together

N den crying together

Night shift together

Home drop together

Going washroom together

Lunch dinner together

Shifts together

Email writing together

Shopping together

Ordering things together

Canada plans together

sitting next to each other

Keeping seat for me

So that I can sit next to you

U know what I l miss more in new job

That u r not next to me

My daily routine

Aake bhi wait karo so we can go to washroom

Nai toh laptop k liye wait ...C's its in your drawer

Filling transport roaster

Giving each other reminder

N din Bhar ki batein

Ghar Ka Rona dhona

Boyfriend ki bitching

Kabhi bohot Sara pyar

Crush ke nam se tuze chidhana

Brk timings

Din Bhar teko pakana

Tere pe chance marna

Advices n opinions

To whom I am gonna ask those bakwass questions

Jo dimag me ate h

Whose gonna pass me bottle when I am crying

With whom I l gonna walk

Tera bhi loss h bacchu

No1 is gonna bring modak for you n Dal rice every month omlett too

Tiffin khalena acchese

Without nautanki

Thanks for evrything

N take care of yourself

I am not there to take care of you !!

Bhagyashree on son Abhimanyu Dassani: Didn't see my own film in theatres, now, living the excitement !

Bhagyashree on son Abhimanyu Dassani: Didn't see my own film in theatres, now, living the excitement !

Roshmila Bhattacharya | March 18th 2019

Maine Pyar Kiya girl Bhagyashree and son Abhimanyu Dassani talk about the pain and pleasures of showbiz...

Bhagyashree points out that kids today are more professional and knowledgeable. “Sooraj ji (Barjatya, director), Salman (Khan) and I were so raw, but got our shots done in two takes max,” she reminisces, revealing how during the Antakshri shoot, Salman had slipped on the stairs and she burst into spontaneous laughter and a “hota hai hota hai” caught Sooraj’s eye and found its way into the film.

Has Salman seen Mard Ko Dard Nahi Hota? “Not yet, but the other day, he called out to me, saying he’d heard I’d done an amazing job and if he’d have to come to my house to see the film. The 300 people around him didn’t recognise me and wondered about me,” Abhimanyu hoots while his mom recalls how during the shooting of “Dil Deewana” Salman had learnt about her secret romance with Himalaya and ragged her endlessly. “At our wedding, Sooraj ji and Salman were my family and stayed till the end.”

Beat me in antakshri and steal my heart

[kahuladragon]

I see a lot of Americans supporting Trevor Noah on Twitter about his dumb joke about India & Pakistan going to war. Telling us not to be offended and it’s not a racist joke. No it’s not. But people in the USA don’t understand - that cultural/political dissonance excellently portrayed by Trevor dumb joke - is that many Muslims in India will face the ire of misplaced nationalists during the war (kinda like your white supremacists) and HINDUs (a very minuscule minority) in Pakistan will face equal danger. 

So no, a lot of Indians and Pakistanis ‘did not get the joke’. 

Also, which 2nd or 3rd generation Indian-American wrote that joke? Or did some white dude just flick through some terrible Hindi films and then decide this was the least offensive joke? Because honestly, that joke fails even there coz Pakistanis LOVE BOLLYWOOD FILMS and half the revenue comes from there. So what? Both armies are going to have an antakshri? Like if he’d actually used that word and had gone that route I think a lot of us would’ve laughed. Antakshris can get quite intense.

A lot of Hindi film actors have big fan followings and their own ‘clubs’ there. So yeah, that joke was about culturally genuine to Indians or Pakistanis as Indian Chinese cuisine is.
