All I have are memories
That I can call mine.
Since you've gone,
I've missed the comfort…
and the strength,
But I've managed fine.
Since you've gone…
Days have passed by
And this fledglingalone,
has learnt to fly.
Since you've gone,
You no longer remained you…
Now you exist in me
And I, as you.

Wrote this poem for a friend who's doing a choreography on women, and having in the background pictures of mothers and daughters, but with all those mothers passed away. Could not think of how to word this, until I thought of my father... so this poem is dedicated to him.

Guru bhai aayo re!!!
Last year saw Munnabhai and Gandhigiri, this year sees Gurukant Desai and Dhandagiri!
Caught 'Guru' over the weekend, and was surprised to actually get tickets so easily...Had heard so much from others that I didn't want to miss a chance to see it. I was not totally disappointed. Am not getting into details or the storyline, but will make a few observations.
- Mani Ratnam has created a larger than life image and picture. Good for him!
- The setting and decor are well taken care of.
- Abhishek Bacchhan has done a good job. At times, his voice is so like Big B that I had to make an effort to realise this is the baby. But to give him credit, he has surpassed his father in this movie...
- Ash can't act! Period. She's a pretty, make that extremely pretty face...and even Mani Ratnam could not manage getting the best of her. Although her dancing skills have improved tremendously.
- Saroj Khan's choreography is the same ghisa-pita one...nothing interesting and I also felt that it let down the magic of AR Rahman's voice and song of 'Tere bina'. And there are too many songs in the movie, which take away from it's essence- also the reality of the characters.
- The heroine was Mallika Sherawat- was a pleasure to see her move! :)
- Gulzar (although I abs love that man!) is losing his touch- though there were few lines in some songs that were brilliantly put together.
- The movie is about Dhirubhai Ambani all the way, inspite of the disclaimer put right at the beginning of the movie. They made a hero and a martyr of him, by acclaiming his methods of business done at any cost!
All in all, a movie worth a dekko- at least once!

good..but i kno u do/can write much better! :-)
i haven't seen Guru..though i have seen The Guru..want me to comment on that..hehe..:-D
Brilliant poem! Just loved the way it ends!
good points. but i don't think abhishek cuts is at all for the role. i was expecting bunty & babli sort of gags thru the film, not financial master strokes.
i cringed at the desperate attempts at humour.
the movie has shattered my image of dhirubhai.
Love the poem, and loved the movie! The world doesnt cease to amaze me with so much creativity each day!
good to see ur feelings standing with lyrical spine.. !!
Nice Poem
Thanks all! :)
