Filmy ... and me ??

Hey.. many times i encountered with this situation when my friends called me "FILMY" .. But i oppose, I am not filmy ..

I don't watch movies or you can say, I don't want to waste my time in watching 2-3 hours of movie that includes around 2 hours of stale masala plus few minutes of good scenes.. I rarely go to cinema theatres, say once a year .. Then why am i filmy ??

Hmmm probably I watch them all on Television or my lappy. Movies channels are always not my preference while watching tv, and in lappy my preference is playing games or doing something technical ...

Well, if somebody has watched only 5 movies in lifetime then one must be "SHOLAY" .. similarly, 4 others could be some superhit movies by Dilip kumar, Rajesh khanna, Raj kapoor, Amitabh Bachchan or Madhubala, Meena kumari, Rekha, Sri devi, Madhuri dixit .. These are the movies that impacts our brain to such extent that we keep on finding ourself facing the same situation in real life... We remember the dialogue or actions that actor/actress performed in that movie ..
Everybody has this habit , so do i !!! and yes, I am filmy along with everybody else in this world ...

Why Antakshari is always played when we go for outing ? Why we laugh when somebody mimic movie actors/actresses (not lalu yadav, amar singh, advani or bajpayi) ?? Why do people relate SRK with Airtel or Dish Tv (not othr struggling models in fashion word ) ?? Why your friend circle mostly plans to go cinema theatre after buking a college lecture ?? The answer is same, because we all are filmy .. some people show it and they are filmy, some people doesn't and they aren't ..

Well, I have a toolbox .. a toolbox to deal with some situation .. it has many tools ..
If i talk with a kid, I try to be a kid of that age and make him happy , thats my Kiddu-Tool ..
If i need to explain something to such person who is very influenced by movies .. then there is no better tool that "Filmy-tool" .. I saw it worked best in many situation .. No wonder, if i use it on you , but please don't call me "FILMY" .. ;)

Phir teri kahani yaad aayi ...

"Tere dar par sanam , chale aaye .. 

Tu na aaya to hum chale aaye .. "



This song hit my ears yesterday evening.  I stood there still listening to this song watching the rain pouring outside.  Had a cup of tea in my hand and I don't know when my mind digging old memories.

I can't exactly recall which year was it ..but we had board exams , so it cud be year of 1996-97.  Cable TV was introduced in my town, One of our neighbour (Joshi uncle) came with a free cable connection offer at our home. My papa resisted because I and my brother both had Board exams that year, but he didn't listen. He told us to watch the free cable for some months and get it disconnected whenever we wanted.

There were some 12-15 channels including Zee Tv and Zee Cinema. It was like a blessing after watching the classic dance shows and 7-colors strips on Doordarshan.  We used to come to home from office and watch the Cable all day..  Very soon, we got addicted to "DISH" (Cable is called by this name still) ..

When my father realized that we are diverting from the study, he told joshi uncle to disconnect the cable. It was like "pahaad hi toot pada ho" , we started acting like, "we are studying papa, you go and watch the cable.. but don't get it disconnected" .. 

Zee TV started showing trailer of "Phir teri kahani yaad aayi". Its mahesh bhatt's movie starring Pooja bhatt and Rahul Roy.  This was a movie from Zee's own movie house and they were showing the premier of that movie after 2 weeks on Zee TV. 

It was quite fascinating to watch a movie on the day of its release. Zee Tv broadcasted its song whenever it got a free space in the channel schedule.

"Aane wala pal ek sapna hai ..

Gujra hua kal to apna hai ..

Hum gujra kal me rahte ha ..

Yaadoo ke sab jugnu jungle me rahte ahi .. "

I didn't realized when I sipped the last sip of my tea.  The song was still playing ..

"Mein gazal ban gayi aapke saamne ..

Shauk se ab mujhe gunguna lijiye ..

Shayarana si hai zindagi ki sada ..

Aap bhi zindagi ka mazaa liziye .."

This movie was based on Mahesh bhatt's own life .. (somebody says so) , But who cares, we watched it after studying for some 6 hours continously and after convincing papa ..  it was a short movie of 2 hrs with excellent songs.

The movie songs are awesome,  and the lyrics are very touching ..

Check out my playlist to see the videos..
Music Videos of "Phir teri kahani yaad aayi"

My personal favourite song is "Tere dar par sanam" .. Its not something which you listen a lot and then forget it when you hear some other song .. Some of my childhood memories are linked with the songs of this movie and It will always be cherishing those memories with these songs...
