What if you met your soulmate?!?

A lot has happened since my last post.
A trip to the sandy beaches of Goa. The soul-searching "Rang De Basanti". A rocking yet moving concert by Indian Ocean. But above all, I met my soulmate.

What do you do if you met your soulmate??
Would you tell her? Would you hold on to her? Or would you continue with your journey as if it never mattered?

I know she is as much as mine as I'm as much as hers. But we just cannot be together. We both know that. For what we have gone through.
Don't you think it's so debilitating to know you can't do anything about it?

Why?!?

Arrey ruk ja re Bandeh!!

Today's been one of those where music has had an impact on my life (Note: There are many such days in my life though.)

I had gone for a Heritage walk, which was part of the Kalaghoda Arts Festival. The walk started from Regal Cinema to Maharashtra Police HQ to Merchant Chamber to Prince Wales Museum. After that, I went off to Azad Maidan. According to the paper, Indian Ocean and then Rabbi were supposed to perform there.

Well, I arrived way early so as to be right in the front. And it started.

Sushmit. Asheem. Rahul. And Amit.

The notes filled the air. Rahul's voice soaring over the Mumbai roads. And it all started.

Kandisa. Hile le. Maa Re Va. Jhini. Baram Baap Ke. Khajuraho. And Bandeh.

The lights. The sound. The music. I couldn't have asked for more. And then watching them and Rabbi jamming on Bulla Ki Jaana was much more.

It was "plainly one of those nights I just can't forget. Main tho wahan hi ruk gaya.

Let's Salsa!!

Well, today for the first time in my life, i tried my hand (n' leg :)) at salsa!!

And I should say it's one helluva experience. The one step forward.. the one step back.. the one step sideways.. the twirls. And if you do this after a couple of shooters, it's all the more weirder.. or should i say, better :)

And when there's lotta people doing it in sync, its jus something. Donno when I'll be trying my leg at it next.
