Have no one else to apologise to but myself for the hibernation since March. I should write more often, I know. I have so many thoughts going on in my head and i wish someone could just type them out straight from my head. But writing or blogging require a consistent, disciplined effort which most people, including the undersigned, lack !
The most difficult is the topic to write about. Its not as if there aren't topics - there are many but what to pick out of the daily ramblings is the main question which remains unanswered many times as thoughts come and leave the neurons.Topic nahi hota toh uspe thoughts bhi nahi hote ! Baah!
Anyhow, lets talk about something flimsy to atleast get this going. I dont watch a lot of TV so its certain that when i sit in front of the telly, it better be something interesting. Last one month, it has been winter time in delhi and i have many times found myself snuggled in a blanket with Ramu kaka and something to munch on- wanting to watch something. I saw the movie Argo ( been longing to watch it ! ) re-watched Harry Potter and Chronicles of Narnia.
I don't watch sitcoms or any of the very famous series. Makes me a boring conversation i know but i just cant seem to discipline myself to follow through on it. In the past I have seen some which are episodic - Castle or Boston Legal or Dexter and tried to connect with the overall thought but naah won't follow them as a religion despite some absolutely stunning stories or gorgeous looking cast <think Kate Beckett!>
Its only obvious, then, that mindless shows like Koffee with Karan come to the rescue - I watch them for their shallowness, or no - maybe my own innate fantasies of movie-la-la land. In the following week, I rant about how bullshitting the show was (despite wanting to secretly appear on the show!)
Some of the celebrities are adorable, no doubt, but the chat show in itself is scripted and hardly controversial. For example, this week PC was interviewed with tight lipped air about SRK. Or KJo keeps harrowing the ladies or the gentlemen on their kissing histories - infact in his recent shows either he or some of his guests have actually moved to *bases* <rolls eyes> The show has such gay undertones to it - caricature gay undertones that KJo should rather announce his sexuality on 26th January. Everyone knows but no we would behave like a fraternity and wouldnt kiss and tell !
It's hardly memorable but still you are hooked. I almost always watch the show if am home or like to catch the re-run on Youtube. - its like a letting go exercise every week. Kuch mat socho!
Next week there is farhan and vidya- the thinking actors but going by the past record of thinking actors ( a la Aamir!, shouldn't expect much ! )
Cant believe i wrote an entire post on KwK but theek hai atleast its a start of 2014!
