Love Aaj Kal & Humesha

Note: This post is dedicated to two of the P's in my life. Both of them are males. They always go looking for logic and rationale behind everything. So here are my two cents for both of you and the other similar people on planet earth.

Go watch love aajkal and it should make some place in your head for faith in the fact that somethings including love defy logic. The movie re-affirmed mine. The main protagonists Meera and Jai,part of the 21st century 'Mango people' - the aam janta, learnt it the hard way.

Logic doesnt make all things work. Not all things have a law from physics behind it. Not all things come with rule books and instruction manuals. There are no global standards and processes to be followed. There is no right or wrong thing in love.

Be it the 16th century Romeo and Juliet or the 21st century Meera and Jai, the common denominator is love and that has no logical reasons. The only reasons are reasons only the heart knows. And it will always be that way.

So what makes things like love work is a secret ingredient. And the secret of the secret ingredient is NOTHING, but love.

Love,
Faded Glory

  1. True when you said love defies logic. But then things around love are logical.
    Just to elaborate lets take the case of Jai who can't concentrate on his dream job and returns to Meera. I doubt if he would be happy with her in the long run. Jai was doing well and yes there was a void in his life. Instead of trying to ignore it or fill it he let it grow and so was the result. Where love defies logic, it creates a void, an empty space in/around you; and it is upto you to overcome it or let it grow. Like I usually say "The choice is always yours."

    For the knowledge of others this is one of the two Ps mentioned.
    And not to end on a disappoiting note my favourite line from the movie - "Tu ekdum correct baat bol deti hai janeman"
