Unable to write about TZP

It has happened with me before that instead of following the natural rhythm of my heart, I try to force myself to sit and write about something I really want to write about. I sometimes find it against the spirit of writing but I cannot wait for things to start flowing and only then write about something. Usually it becomes too late by then. I have missed several moments this way. But now the problem is that when I try to force the thoughts and document them, the outcome doesn't satisfy me. Its a difficult choice. Choosing between 'waiting for the heart to beat and thus missing the moment' and 'force-document the thoughts and let them lack the spirit'.

Today I am in a similar dilemma. Its about 'Taare Zameen Par'. I watched it last Saturday and despite falling flat for it, I am yet to find the right words to write about it. In fact I have started gleefully believing that I am just incapable of putting it forward. To generate the same effects on paper, I will have to do an 'Aamir Khan' which is much much beyond me. I can still try and come up with an OKAY write up to save me the repent of missing the moment but it will never spare me off the embarrassment of underplaying something as great as this movie.

Well, I give up. I cant write about it. Go watch it. Its the 'Hall of fame' stuff, undeniably.

I watched it and shut down the system with moist eyes and shame (why shame later!). Aamir has brought forward the emerging maturity of bollywood to the forefront of cinema. Handling such a delicate subject with such pananche is undeniably the ardent task. Loved the songs of Prasoon Joshi who remined me the unconventional lyrics of RDB too. Well shameful because as usual watched the movie on computer promoting piracy :(. Well would try to convince all my frnds to give full credit and watch in theatres...and yes I am always ready to accompany you again for TZP.

Well, movie is great in many aspects, but this piracy sentiment was a new twist...:-)
