the old man and the sea

i was working late night in my textile studio. after a long time i felt this drive to "work"..... since my faculty suggested i work on large surfaces i occupied one of those empty studios where i had lots of tables to myself....and more importantly a lot of space all to myself....

the freshers from my discipline were in the adjacent room playing one sound track after the others ... the dj of the classroom had this propensity to play more of the early nineties songs which i really enjoy.they make me nostalgic and remind me of my years in a now foreign land but once upon a time i used to call it home away from home..(not refering to my alma mater here.)


and then she played this one song of the same era. a song that was a hit during its time and continues to be loved by all of us even now. the song: "papa kehte"..listening to it just brought this warm glow in my heart. i remeber what a cute pair juhi chawla and amir khan made. they were the most popular pair back then.....
another thought(read song) that crossed my mind was "koi kahe" from the movie dil chahta hai.... not the chocolate boy next door amir khan in a white shirt and black trousers...but an amir khan in tight leather pants , a glossy shirt and a hairdo to make a 40+ pass off for a college lad....and u smile to urself and u cant help thinking of how drastically time has gone by. period

note: i wrote this post really long ago and i guess i only took the time out tonight to actually complete it.
