Dasvidaniyan

Hi guys … hope you people had a great weekend. I watched Dasvidaniyan over the weekend & to be true was deeply touched by the movie. What if I was to die after 3 months? What would be the last 10 things I would want to do before I die? I pondered a lot over the question which was the central theme of the movie but realized in the end that 10 is too small a number. There are umpteen number of things I would like to do before I die and for which 3 months would be too less a time. And I believe like me each one of you has a big list of things to do before you say Alvida. But will you do those things within your lifespan. I think for the majority of you that answer would be a “NO”.

You get so embroiled in the day-to-day happenings that the things-to-do list becomes blurred beyond recognition. As you grow up, you lose touch with so many of your bosom buddies, your childhood dreams remain dreams & are rather blown away like dust particles to some faraway land, you forget your main goal in life & get so busy in making the present likeable that in the process you don’t realise you have ended up announcing the doom of your future because your future depends on that main goal in life. You are so persistent in chasing the dreams of the present that finally there comes a point in life when you are forced to ask yourself why you are there in this world & then you realise what you have missed out on.

You realise you have not taken that vacation you had been planning since the past so many years, you realise you have not got in touch with your bosom buddy whom you have been wanting to talk to since eternity but never got the time for it, you realise you have not been able to save enough for your future because you were so busy in making the present better & at this juncture you feel like a loser because you had planned this in your mind all life but never executed these plans. You were so busy executing the small plans for the present that you forgot to see the bigger picture. But buddies remember one thing the bigger picture does matter because in the end when you are about to say Dasvidaniyan you will surely feel the pinch of not having executed the biggest plan of your life…
