Her: I think the point of life is to run after what is important and not give up until you have it.
Me: But how do you know what is important.
Her: Happiness, of course. Everybody deep down wants to be happy.
Me: But not everybody is happy all the time, are they?
Her: I don’t know.

It was the day before the show that the feeling truly hit me. I was standing in the center of the stage and suddenly there was this overwhelming feeling of being drowned, it felt like my lungs were searching for that extra bit of air to save my life. In the midst of all the commotion and the running around, for the first time I knew what all of this meant…

A near dear friend of mine gave birth to a handsome baby boy a few hours ago. I have been thrilled with the whole thing from day one of the whole pregnancy and its hard to explain the delight I feel.

We were a small bunch of close friends in college and we used to hang out all the time… When you know somebody for so long you just have this unseen bond, their happiness becomes yours too

I just cant stop smiling… If you happen to meet me today you might notice that my smile is a little longer

To prepare for his role as the Joker, Heath Ledger lived alone in a hotel room for a month, formulating the character’s psychology, posture and voice (the last one he found most difficult to do). He started a diary, in which he wrote the Joker’s thoughts and feelings to guide himself during his performance. He was also given Alan Moore’s comic “Batman: The Killing Joke” and “Arkham Asylum: A Serious House on Serious Earth” to read. Ledger also took inspiration from A Clockwork Orange (1971)’s Alex and Sid Vicious.

That was the piece of trivia a friend of mine shared with me about a year ago. His enthusiasm was obvious and we both knew that this kind performance would be once in a lifetime.

Heath Ledger’s performance was beyond words. After a long time I was actually watching a movie expecting it to be great, kept telling myself that it would ruin the movie for me but frankly the movie was so engaging that it proved me wrong.

This post is dedicated to Satish, who could have wished for anything in the world but wanted this. This my way of showing the world that some wishes do come true

Me: Life changes doesn’t it, after a while priorities change… people change. Its just unfortunate that things don’t stand still and remain the way you like it.
