Abhi, i TOTALLY agree about Dr. Kalam being your idol, he is mine too... he isn't my 'idol' or anything but when I was in gr 12, he had come to Dubai on a visit (this was in 2003)..so they organized this whole press meet kinda thing..so 15 students from each indian school were to go n meet him.. a total of 1600 students teachrs n dignitaries attended.. i was one of them..
it didn't matter that i was one among 1600, it was just the fact of being in the same auditorium as Abdul Kalam that made my day.. he is something else all together....
I have seen the cricket team when they played in Shj as I had gone to watch the match !!
Unfortunately, never met any singers or ppl from bollywood.. but I saw Venkatesh (Telugu actor) and Raghuram (Tmil actor..was there in Anjali) in the airport..
and Rahman at a concert in Dubai..
During the Toronto film festival this year, the stars were staying right next to my university res.. i remember walkin by the street late nite hopin to catch a glimpse..never worked :( !
if given chance, I would LOVE to meet the whole of Bachan family (AB Baby is a doll!), Lata ji and Asha tai, KK, Hariharan and ofcourse Rahman in person..
from the shows, I would just love to meet Hemu and Nihira.. I am scared though of meetin hemu, i think i will do or say somethin reallllyyy stupid !
