Love Aaj Kal

yes happened to watch the movie, and well was surprised, the way it turned out to be! Didnt realize that it was a product of a popular director, who had sort of let-down his fans, with this 'mediocre stuff'. ('Kaminey' was a bit of a let-down which ofcourse is just my opinion) So expecting nothing, had a slow gently-moving film, excluding those brash, loud song sequences. Coming to the crux of my thoughts, the scene where both saif and deepika have these 'seizures'; seized by this compulsion to reach out, meet, talk, just make that connection. So people who cant fly miles(or catch a train!), take a ride in the countryside, barge doors, deliver speeches what do you do??? When we can not do it the cinematic way, it boils down to, the feeling not being strong/good/valid enough???

i liked kaminey, except for the ending! :)

and i actually liked love aaj kal too... maybe i'm a sucker for movies! :P

but i liked the way the two stories were inter-twined though it was quite predictable. i think saif did quite well and deepika too!

as for your thought about people not being able to make that connection because of distance/ circumstances/ whatever i think it just means that the feeling is not strong enough! if it were strong enough, then none of this would stop you... and i'm not being filmy here! :)

:) that was a very wisdom-filled answer, and yes does help in accepting certain things. rose tainted hazy things need to be cleared; and being objective and practical just doesnt happen in certain instances. thanks! :)
