The last three movies I saw were Jab We Met , Saawariya and OSO in that order.It was clear what the modern movies were trying to tell us...the modern male is afraid of losing his so called superiority to the modern female.
The modern hero is less heroic, almost tragi-comic, less masculine , has emotions like jealousy , cries at the drop of a hat and falls for the wrong girl.
He always falls for the wrong girl...
Take Raj , our bubbly yet brooding poet of saawariya ...He is charming , funny , energetic , artistic and sensitive and last but not the least has a chiseled body .He falls for sakina ...falls hard , but fails to make her fall in love with him despite of all his plus points.Jealousy and desperation plague Raj.He cannot make sakina forget her first love...He vainly tries to sabotage their love , and then resorts to begging and pleading and finally compromises.
Take OSO.Om prakash Makhija , the lowly extra is madly in love with a married star who just wants friendship from him.
Or Jab We Met , where a handsome successful millionaire Adithya kashyap, falls for the girl who transforms him and his life .Sadly the girl is in love with someone else to a point of obsession.She is totally blind to his love and he sadly accepts it as his destiny.
I can write anything in this website because "Frankly my dear , nobody gives a damn ".
Mostly people are too self obsessed or are too involved in their day to day problems to actually read between the lines of what I write.So I 'm safe even when I write all my secrets.My secrets are ironically and oxymoronically 'open secrets'.
This actually gives me the freedom to say what I want in a way no other medium would have allowed .
Meet Vikas.The hero of my story.He's not bad looking, socially well adjusted , reportedly has a good sense of humour , a good career ...but like the modern movie hero , he always fall for the wrong girl.Its tragic but the hero of my story always falls for the wrong girl.
I loved Jab we Met , but hated it equally.The story is eerily similar to mine in one aspect...I'm in love with the girl who transformed me.The song 'Tum Se Hi ' is a song that tortures me and this is why...
The phenomenon is called transference or transference of love.
Freud noticed that many of his female patients were falling in love with him and wanted him to reciprocate.Love happened while his patients talked to him about their problems , their pains , happiness and everything in between.
Transference is a phenomenon in psychology characterized by unconscious redirection of feelings for one person to another.Transference was first described by Sigmund Freud, who acknowledged its importance for psychoanalysis for better understanding of the patients feelings.
This brings me back to 'tum se hi' , a song which knows my secret ...and this is the reason why I shed a tear in front of you, because I could never tell you the truth.
And truth be told , this is how I fell in love with you.Endless hours of talking , sharing , laughing , bonding . I never realized it , but it left me changed forever and forever in love...I often used to get angry that you did not love me as much as I loved you.But I realized that this love was destined to be a one way street, with no love coming my way . So I had decided that I'll never tell you that I loved you...because you deserved someone better than me.This Song is dedicated to you , as well as to me , because , every time I listen to it , I fall in love all over again.
Jab We met
