indu,

thanks for reading that one. he was indeed born to do asr. and lovely thought about arnav. the name was well chosen... all attributes of a vast ocean here in him, the sometimes calm surface with the turbulence within, the hidden untold depth, there is abyss there and the dance of the surf, there's ebb and flow... low and high tide, sometimes the undertow is dangerous, when the plates below the surface shift, a tsunami may arise, what else was it that valentine's day night... colours... blue, black, grey, dun and the white of the surf. sound... the sudden lashing, the whisper, the murmur, the roar... the crashing of angry waves upon the shore, destructive and yet awe inspiring beauty... so much of all that is arnav in him. some day i would really like to hear from him, how he prepared for asr. and was arnav a reference he took note of and used to explore his asr.

today over dinner i came across a word i had know and yet not known... oneirical the person who used it said he wasn't sure if it existed, so we kept playing with it and said, for this evening it is a word. he was french and said to him it meant poetic, dreamy...

of course, we ran and googled the word straight after the meal. yes there it was, oneirical from oneiric... relating to dreams or dreaming.

would it be too hysterical to say, i found barun's asr absolutely utterly dishily elementally oneirical?

abs true... sanaya and barun, they just owned and made khushi and asr. no one else could have brought them to the point these two did.

why is it that always it is the classic and great actors that come to mind when we watch barun? you speak of de niro, i often think of al pacino as michael corleone, gregory peck in roman holiday, at times balraj sahni, dilip kumar, amitabh b, rajesh k, dev anand in bambai ka babu, guru dutt in kagaz ke phool... just flashes, glimpses... and he always has something even more intense and timeless in him... can one fake it all?

sanaya as khushi brings to mind all the wonderful more dramatic actresses of yore... meena kumari, saira very young, waheeda, nargis... i think of them all, soemtimes rakhee... her voice... the look in her eyes... something so graceful in her... not from now.

yet both are curiously here and now contemporary too... absolutely youthful and current, very lucknow and delhi.

kizh, you have crossed 50 posts a while back... welcome to the mad people's oneirical teehee world.

i have to see that scene you mention now. i almost know what i will see... tell me, will anyone believe us if we said we see timeless acting in a strange scene with a borrowed song and a meaningless dance and it leaves us breathless, feeling so many things, and absolutely satisfied. 😳😳
