Zara zara tum ho merey

Zara zara paraye....main...hum hum...

I once went out to watch a movie with a friend in hyd, sudarshan theater, evening show, arrived late, walked past few people to get to our seats, I was into first 20 mts of the movie and my pager was going off, beep beep, the people next to me gave me one of those looks not sure what sound was it, and where was it coming from. i quickly made a futile attempt to search for the pager in the dark,  I read the msg and decided to call after the movie, but then it went beeping again i knew i wouldn't be forgiven for not returning the call, maybe i didn't want to be forgiven, maybe i wanted to hear the gentle wrath i usually get.... so I excused myself to come out and call. I stated my reason for the delay but I wouldn't be heard of...

For reasons I'll never share with you my doll, that movie has been my all time fave Telugu movies. As I went to AUS, one of the songs from that movie, actually only the first two lines of that song, I made graffiti of it on the bare closet door in my room to have a piece of .....around.....(for which I got so much trouble into by the house parents, when i was moving out of their chatra chaya, she complained so much about how she was going to remove the graffiti, she even claimed that i have to come back and repaint the door, i said that would be the last thing I'd do, white wash my memory away, unh unh...no way, i should have a picture of the closet door somewhere).

Laxman the srilankan chef dude going to the same uni as I, the nicest person you'll come across, wonder where he is now, anyway he once came to my abode with sheebu, and asked me what that graffiti meant,  i said i wouldn't share with you, but he liked the kites, the strings and the bows i drew around it, asked me whose picture was it on the table. Then he looked at me said, wait you are not going to tell me right....

Kal woh movie dekha....and i remembered this incident, felt happy, felt sad, felt like holding on to it, felt like just one more time, i'd like that back.  I even remember the pastel peach salwar i was wearing, which coincidentally my mom irons and lays it in the closet for me to wear whenever i'm home. I fit effortlessly into it, even now, says ammi.

On my PL...Kailash kher is blessed with such a rustic voice ....

tere dar pe jhuka hoon, mita hoon, bana hoon, 
marammad mukkadar ki kardo moula, mere moula
mujh me hee woh khushboo thee jo thune milwaya--- now thats a good line.

tut ke bikhar na mujhko zaroor aata hai
warna ibaadat wala shahur aata hai
.....Ab jo tumne thukraya to sawar naa paaunga

Terrific lyrics mr.j.

It's raining here and dark as my mood.

maybe the title of this blog should be marammad mukkadar ki kardo moula. the month of ramzan starts from aug 8th says ammi. i didnt fast at all last 2 years i should this time.
