excerpts..

I want to listen to some music…

For me, R.D. Burman was the true musical genius of the last century.

It’s funny how songs bring back memory. Listen to a tune and then faces, moments, smells, come flooding back.

Like first love.

You can spend a lifetime with a person. But at the end of life, you realize that you didn’t know that person, that you never knew that person. But all we did was live with the perception of that person, a perception that we created in our minds.

And on the other hand you meet a person for a few minutes and there is something about that person that you have liked instantly. Its like you have always known that person.

--not my lines.
