Good song, Bad song

"Kabhi kabhi aditi zindagi mein yun hi koi apna lagta hai"...song of the moment. Had heard a lot about this song. I heard it a few times but didn't really like it very much. Today was just surfing net. This song was playing in the background. I heard it once, repeated it..and then repeated it like a million times. I was enjoying it a lot.Song is so simple and it strikes a chord with every heart. 

That is the best part about all the simple things in life, like a hug from a friend before a campus interview , late night card games, crouching around a bed and watching movies (every kind :) ), birthday bumps, silly arguments, lewd jokes, biking in rain, opposite sex talks and accompanying release of frustration, sachin's batting with Tony Greig as the commentator, etc...They instantly appeal to your emotions. You dont have to try hard to relate with them. We humans are born with all these innate emotions and when displayed well in a movie or a song, that thing becomes a classic. Think of the best movies that you have seen and you will be able to remember some parts of those movies, be it dialogues or scenes, that you could relate with and thats why you enjoyed them so much in the first place.

Now why didn't i like the song at first. Answer was not tough to find out. I heard and saw the complete song(along with the accompanying crying-girl and loving friend) for the first time while watching the movie itself. I knew it was a sweet love story. Amazing time spent in college, love for the other person in your words, eyes, actions, everything. Love in its purest form. And as the old saying goes,"Doodh ka jala chaach ko bhi phook-phook kar peeta hai".. Right from the start of the movie i was in a rejection mode. Just wanted to watch the movie, because everyone had recommended it, but didn't want to get involved. Any scene where i felt that there was a lump im my throat, i fast-forwarded it.

Today at this hour(it's past 12 at night),surfing the net and listening to the same song playing in the background,couldn't stop my mind from wandering. I can bet that every person who likes this song has at one point or other put himself / herself in the same setting and giggled at the prospect of dancing and singing in front of friends...with "aditi" being "the one" for whom you wanna do all this. You wanna make her smile when she is sad, you wanna wipe her tears and make them yours........
song says, "Rote hain hum bhi agar teri aankhon mein aansoon aate hain"....you think of moments when you were all in tears listening to her over phone or in person and she was telling you why she is sad...

The line that i wanted to hear over-and-over again,"Aditi voh jo bichadte hain voh ik din mil jaate hain"..Because i know that day onwards i will watch movies like Jaane tu ya jaane na and absolutely love them. I wont be stopping myself. I wanna enjoy every movie the way i enjoyed Partner.

"maana kabhi-kabhi saare jahan mein andhera hota hai,lekin raat ke baad hi to savera hota hai"

Its a good song.. :)
