As you may or may not know there is a Multifandom contest currently taking place on IF. If not here is the link.

Anyway, I decided to make a vm for it. My second vm of my life, one year after my last and first attempt. It turned out to be too long for the contest. However I am about journeys and I really loved story boarding this one even knowing that it would not end up at its intended destination.

The theme was tragedy.

I would appreciate your reviews on that aspect, the technical side I already know my faults. 😳

DISCLAIMER: Although I used MN scenes THIS IS NOT MN as you know it, so if you keep them closely bound to your heart I would advise that this is as far as you should venture.

So as I was saying, before my interruption, the theme is tragedy however I just could not help adding a silver lining. I wonder or rather hope that you may find it.

With much love, Sabah

P.S. On the technical side, how does one remove the background score to a piece of video whilst leaving just the dialogues? I couldn't find a YT video and wished I could have done that for the first scene of this vm.

EDITED like finally!

firstly the thing which attracted me to your VM was the tune ahh obviously 😳 its intense, sad, and painfully romantic...made me curious...

The very first scene wrenches my heart, has a lump on my throat. the "matt jao" i always loved how arjun can modulate his voice to make his dialogues more impactful and the very next scene you show nupur walking away with dhruv while the beautiful BG starts, as mayank looks away from them and the you take it to the flashback, as lonely mayank sits there after he has lost everything, the painful tune highlights his pain even more...abt the boxing one, though i wud have preferred the other boxing seq of mayank, but then this one has surprisingly fit well and i guess, u used it because of the fall in the end...amazing none the less...

another poignant part was the beads shattering, rather him shattering, them shattering forever...

and in the last piano piece you show mayank standing alone in the rain, remencing the beautiful moments, the togetherness, the completeness, as he opens it its again empty and void, the memories, pierce him , pain him, but i guess it has become a part of him, he is living with it!

beautiful VM sabah, thanks a lot, i loved it for mayank and the tune!

I love Hana yori dango, as well as meteor garden and boys before flowers. I always wished that they made an Indian version. WITH ARJUN! 😳

Sabah, RESERVEDD!😛

ok this has to be the biggest coincidence, domyouji tsukasa is one of my favorite male characters along with mayank. i BADLY wanted to see arjun in this role, i guess i wrote this in a thread before made by rinky, where she was asking abt the roles tat wud suit arjun and rati. and after seeing arjun doing alekh and mayank am sure he wud do total justice to the domyouji's characters and its layers 😳

ok sorry for going off topic 😆

No problem. Here is my discussion with Divya about domyouji or Daoming Si in Meteor Garden, same difference. Feel free NOT to read. It is very long post BUT then again it was my two beloveds so you must understand being that they are yours too. 😳

Both Daoming Si and Shan cai are not like SG, they are most definitely in the category of DE and MN. He is more mean than Mayank or Darcy, from a rich family but no love from any parent. Closes himself off from others from a fear of abandonment and cocooned in his loneliness. He keeps people at bay by violence and insolence. Bullying people at an 'upper class' college, forcing others to quit if they stare at him, or glance or even just upon a whim. She is from a poor background, there upon scholarship, she is not timid, infact stands up to him whilst defending her only friend, only to be punishment by his severe bullying. However where many 'men' have quit, her Elizabeth, Nupur fighting spirit makes her retaliate and inadvertently makes him fall for her. She meanwhile falls for his friend.

Why I love them? They again illuminate the DE effect, he humbles before love without losing his own self and she learns the meaning of true love based not upon expectations.😃

If you are interested then I can pm you a site where you can download for free HQ subtitled version, not that I am implying that your Korean is below standard. 😛 I recommend the Korean version as it is more polished. Between my offline and online friends, I can not convince any to watch either 'boys over flowers' or MJHT so that I can finally have a conversation where I can discuss DE, MN and DS!

Now to the pith of the matter. I guess I was being unfair for in truth you could not give proper judgement.

However sagacious Divya is correct out of Darcy and Mayank I prefer Mayank, as her wise self surmised because he is more real to me. True Darcy is the general template however Mayank is dealing, handling specifics. 😛More beloved for one rare trait; his haya. Darcy was tainted by it but Mayank is drenched in its light.

However out of the three, it is Daoming Si, whom I cherish. For truly if Darcy is the supernova from which sprung these stars, though Mayank's star burns brightest, Daoming Si's star has come the furthest. That is where my love lies. The journey travelled. For we may not all be stars, nor flowers but we can all fulfil our potential. For example, before he confesses to her, whilst she is unaware of the fact that the man who bullies her actually loves her, he asks her out on a date, but she doesn't hear as a plane passes overhead, so when later he tells her the time, date and place, she doesn't quite understand. She turns up later, only out of curiousity. A man who never had to pause for anything, had everything at his beck and call, who never waited for a season to change, waits for four hours in the pouring rain. When the object that kept him there appears instead of unleashing 'incredible hulk' he hugs her and asks, " 'Are you all right?' I was worried something had happened to you." I just love him

Or when he asks her why she doesn't like him, as he is quite a catch, rich and handsome. She shouts and doubts, pokes fun at his curly hair. A man whom every peer emulated begins to wake at dawn so that a hairdresser spends two hours straightening his hair. These are just the beginnings of the story, like MN's exam track or DE's Netherfield ball. There is more, far more wonders to behold, would you not like to become enchanted?

In regards the matter in hand, there is further still to expound. For in reality I have known of a Darcy and I am met a Mayank (before you ask Teju, he is Mayank in substance and not form, he is quite unlike Arjun. He is tall, blonde and blue eyed, but in character he is Mayank, if your heart can separate the two.) Out of all five, fiction and real, my heart belongs to, yearns to be with, pines at every heartache, for the 'real life Mayank that I met. An offline sister says that the day I meet the real life Daoming Si is the day that there will finally be a ring upon my finger, not that I care for such affectations. However all I can say today is that I love ________, that real life Mayank, with all my heart. I can not convince my heart to settle for any other.

Sabah; though you might not be able to hear me😆 i can hear you just fine :)). thank you now i will rummage through your uploads and comment once i watch them😳

So, viola!
