Note: I have missed lot of names in this memoir. it is not like i forgot anyone. i just took a break, opened laptop, gone back to 2008 days and typed whatever came in to mind. each and everyone of you are important to me and i'm really srry for missing your names.
Hooola guys..
The first memoir ready..oh wait..This is the official inauguration of our MissionMemior and i'm really honoured to do the inauguration. And of course..You guys are blessed to have me too *no chappals pls*
Let me start. Kis desh happened to be my first ever hindi serial which i actually watched. I was in 11th std and we had a family friend staying in home for studying. And she introduced me to hindi channels esp star plus. At first i used to give company to her and watch the glittering cloths and jewelleries which the heroin and family wore. Then one day accidently watched kis desh's very first promo with heer running through the field and i was like ok.. I dont know how it happened, but somehow i ended up watching kis desh from first episode itself. It took a 1-2 weeks to pick up the language as hindi is not my mother tongue. Heer looking at moon, prem playing mandolin, their connection and first meet at railway station..i'm gone completely. You can say a 16 year old got completely smitten by this two charming, innocent, cute, lovely , adorable and ideal people prem and heer who made a stunning couple together. It was completely new for me. I have seen sweet charming couples romancing in our movies..but the balaji romance and vikas factor' was new to me. The dupptta romance, fall and catch, lighter scenes, raasta rokos.. sheesh..i even used to wear long duppatta and stand in heavy wind during our wind season, letting the duppatta fly..but instead of landing on my hero's face, it always used to fall on some branches of trees only.. sigh
The craze of kis desh didn't end there. The addiction was so strong which made me bunk classes and even took leave acting as sick just to catch repeats in case i miss the original episode. And the confession episode was during vacation class days. I watched the original epi and even then i skipped the vacation class on next day to watch all repeats which was at 12:30 and 3:30. i never acted this much crazy for any serial and i'm sure i never will be in future too. Well as a note, internet was an alien thing for me at that time. So watching online was not an option.
Time passed and the addiction touched the highest note. Then one fine day prem got killed in a bomb blast. And i turned to a lady devdas along with heer. I still remember how i cried hard watching heer's break down. i know it was serial only..still it made me quite and depressed for many days. only good thing was prem appearing here and there as dreams and ghosts. Then November came and television strike happnd. Everyday i used to turn on television to check whether new epi aired. Then there was a maha epi of kis desh summarising the entire story sheesh..i made it sure that i catched up the repeat of it too. Then December came and i got the biggest surprise. A promo of heer painting prem's pic and rishab tear it off only to show a prem standing behind. The face was not clear..but i was soo sure that it was prem..lol how many hip hip hurrerys i did watching the promo and the rajesthan promo following it. Prem came back..premeer came back and i got lost in lala land again..
Time passed, i joined college and kis desh shifted to afternoon slot. And in college i met many friends who used to watch kis desh and one of the told me about the online world and introduced me to india forms. This account is actually created by her. She used to share the news and articles posted in kis desh forums with me. She is the one who informed me about kis desh ending and we all went in to next round depression.
It says corrects, we realise the value of things once we lost it. I realised the real depth of my love for premeer and desh once it went off completely. I realised one more thing..i never loved prem and heer more separately. It was premeer always. Its the pair i fall in love with. Its the couple who charmed me.
HC returned with tl, AG returned with sangini..i tried to watch both but wasn't able to o it as i got busy in shifting house that time and once i settled back it ended. I got two dhamaka surprises during that time..one harshiti hosting sbs and 2nd one was APKK performance.. still being away from online world, i enjoyed both surprises to the core. Oh boy...one day you casually watch starone and suddenly harshad appears in white, floating in air lift arms up, additi fall down like an angel, harshad catch her and they fall together.. still can feel the goose bumps . and not to forgot the dreamy performance too..
This performance made me again login the account of mine in IF which i never used after creating. It took me while to understand that i can make topic and comment with account. And i got in to another misunderstanding that only on-air shows hav forums. And started experimenting here. The first post i made was actually a copy paste from another member. I copied it and edited name an place and posted. But as soon i picked up and reached this forum which later turned to become my second home. The forum was a wonderland then. Lot of members visiting daily, forum flooding with ff, ss and os, vms and siggies and so many posts on how much kis desh/premeer/harshiti was missed. So many fans who is living with a hope to see harshiti agai like me and want to cherish. It didn't took long to make this forum my own. Vrushu was the one who welcomed be immediately and Fatima di, uswah di, preeti, grace, kavya di, khaju di, sandy di, pooji, faiza di (whom later i discovered to my own age and cut off that di), abby and others were a great support in start. (ok..i missed so many names)
One of the most trending topic on that time was how to get harshiti IV or performance again and that took me to facebook and i created account only to request sbs for harshiti iv. I even created and spammed in a site named showbizgallexy or something like that. it was rumoured to be ekta site. The life was smooth. But then October 11th incident happend which shattered and bonded us same time. The bubble of dreams broke, fans splitted, bashings went to high peak and moral policing too started. Literally the forum became a battle ground filled with shoutings, screaming, sighs and crys. It will be underestimating if i say that i was shocked. I was more than shocked. And was guilty too. Somewhere i feel like i was also responsible. If fans including me weren't requesting continuously, sbs wouldn't have arranged the iv and the issue wouldn't have happend. But I guess it was my attachment to premeer, i decided to wait to know harshad's side of story too and said the same in forum. I wasn't alone then..vrushu and others were also there with the same pov. It was then poroma noticed my views and comments and introduced me to a big family of harshitians in fb who also share the same feeling. And it was a big turning point of my life.
I started to spend most of my time in fb, get to know the members more, spammed every media pages with harshiti iv requests. With some positive replies from SBS, a new hope was slowing rising and it got shattered to pieces when SBB took advantage of the situation. One more bomb. and instead of making depressed it made me to spam sbs and all with double force. And the survivors effort didn't got wasted. After 3 nd half month harshad apologised to additi on sbs and requested to do a segment together. It was like a beautiful rain after 4 months of extreme summer.
But these continuous bombs affected the phroum badly. Fans got split, separated and left. And the one who stayed in got close than before. I became soo close to Aishu, yusra, selvy di, kauser, abby, maria, nabz, sadi, divya, divz, shweta, amna, juhi and all. In fb too from a big group i made a small family with sanju, anu, poroma, vrushu, muna, sana, kriti and afee. And it keep widening with Tara,tummy, rida,malu,tas, afreen, naziya, nida, ridika, alina, giya and all (again sorry for missing so many names L ). Life was full on with spamming until our mods emerged in with a lock. That was a blow. And it wakened a new urge in me. How we can close a home where we shared so much memorries? I was relatively new that time. Even then it was place where our seniors in phroum had a blast. And most importantly if it closed that time, the phorum would have been ended on a sad note which i never want to happen. If the phrom ever get locked, it will be on a happy note of harshiti patch up. From that day, i used to divide my time to two. One portion for fb and one for IF. Along with sadi, maria, vrushu, yusra, athi, selvy di,waqas, tasu, kops, noor and all, forum slowly started to active by making threads on small things. The fun doubled when more members joined in with increased activity including mou, kiran, dhanya, heena, , hema, ,neha,muna ,tara, nida,and all joining in.and i also got close to meet fans Fatima, sherma too Not to forgot we also made anwesha di a deshian in mean time too. The monsoon siggy contest with drool worth siggies, anniversary siggy contests, from kis desh anniversary thread to first PH hug anniversary threads..phroum indeed turned out to be a home which i want to come every day as soon as class get over.
The most memorable one among the celebration is premeer rewedding in which we splitted ourself in two ladki wale and ladke wale and ofcourse aishu becoming ash and running behind prem. That was pure fun. From giving shagun to decorating bedroom for suhagrat and sending them to honeymoon ..we did everything. Not to forgot the hadi song.. "haldi ke rang sang pyaar aagay" rofl.. Then comes singing conest where we made parade songs for jugni.. remind me that i need to find the possibility for a season 2 of that contest. Then MEET wedding anniversary posts. <3 i just love them too..
The calendar turned to 2014 feb..and then on one day when we all were banging our head on imaginary wall thinking how to get mr.chopda and miss.gupta somewhere together and also what Harshad might have told in the IV which will be out on sbs at 2:30 pm..it happened. SBS uploaded 3 photos of Harshiti with a caption promise'. I still dont think what i felt that moment can be put in words. Its an incredible feeling. I got What i dreamed and carved for ages. I was in mobile and when i came to know about it..then just to watch it in bigscreen i ran to the interet cafe with such a speed which will put pt usha in shame. The relief, the happiness..it was magical. And we didn't turn a single stone to celebrate the golden moment. Forum and fb burst in to celebration mode. My dream of celebrating harshiti reunion in our forum too came true. We analysied each mili second of the segment and how can i forget the aishu's analysis post.
The best thing about the reunion was it brough back the senior fans back home like Pari, ana, mouli di, jyo and all. Well it says when happiness come back..it comes double. If sbs meeting was arranged then HC attending wedding of AG's brother was natural. Aah.. i will never forget additi's dhamki of "gala dabakar murder kar deta" in my life. It gave me a satisfaction that we fans were right.
This might sound crazy But surprisingly, once i got them i terrible started missing the spamming i used to do before. And still miss it.
In form we still were soo in to celebrating anniversaries. Kiran came up withe idea of kis dsh rerun thread. Then star plus gave us a surprise by uploading HD epis of kis desh in star classics. Life once again started getting busy and i became lazy too. And got amazing nicknames from mou and sanju. Then HC came back as sahir, AG as sanam2 and they became my next craze. And thanks to besharam people like mou and pari.. i turned out to be a shameless fan girl again. Aah..i was even asked mods permission to make an AT of them here.
Life moved again..SP finally reaired kis desh in star utsav and upload the episodes in hotstar. Life is back to the starting of circle. Watching kis desh on 6:30, drooling on the show, laughing and crying along eventhough i know complete stry. Well what else can do? Nothing can beat the feeling of watching kis desh on tv screen. And i'm enjoying it whenever i can .. hopefully star utsav will air it till the end without editing.
Well in between all these i became more and more lazy here. Other than poping up with some crazy ideas once in blue moon, i does nothing now. Sigh i badly want to change this. Hopefully atleast this memoir can make it.
Aah..its long. But trust me. This is the shortest memoir i can come up with. kis desh is not just a show for me. Its a part of my life. It had a big role in making what i am today. It influenced my personality and attitude. It give me memories to cherish forever and also showed me the reality of life. All memories were not good. The bashings, hate messages, cyber bullyings the list is not short. There are many things i regretted later. One of them is acting impulsively and too much sensitively during initial days. Instead of ignoring posts and comment i replied back which finally ended in big fights. I realise i was immature there. But same time it made me strong enough to reply back when it is needed too.
Kis desh also give me a bunch of best friends who are more like sisters to me..with whom i can share my deepest secrete which i never can share even with my family. I know i haven't mentioned much about you guys. I'm srry. But what to do to? I dont want it to end up a 10-15 page long memoir and scare you guys who signed up for coming weeks.
So thats all for now..
