Memories

Last week was extremely busy with almost no time at all to sit and relax. Reason mind you was not work (after a very long time in my life) but was first Diwali followed by My Best Friend's Wedding.
We met first when we were in batchmates class III and became friends when we became classmates in class IV. Since, then we have been friends and not just friends, we have been two people who have just about seen everything in each other's lives. Sometimes consciously and a lot of times unconsciously he has shared with me all my joys, excitements, sorrows, frustrations, fascinations, my past, my present and my future as well. As he got married on 1 Nov, while i was shooting the video covering his entire marriage, I also wish him all the happiness and my best wishes. Shikha (Chetan's wife) is definitely a lucky girl to have married a gem of a person and am sure Chetan is one lucky boy as well.
While making a movie for Chetan to gift him for his marriage, I went through all the old pictures I had and all the wonderful innocent memories of those times flashed through my mind. First stage show of Magic Land, first visit to Appu Ghar, movies and ofcourse the famous benches of Wazirpur. I also wondered if ever again, four of us ( Chetan, Praveen and Nitin and me) would be able to meet the way we used to and chat our way through long hours. I do not know but one thing is for sure, the memories would always remain and a mere mention of it would make all of us smile and remember each other irrespective of where and how we are.
As I wind up for the day, the song " Hum rahein ya na rahein kal, pal...yaad aayenge ye pal" plays in the background. Enjoy!
