A happy journal!

Life has alternative phases. One good phase is followed by a bad phase which is always followed by a good phase. That is how life works and that is what makes life interesting. Today, when I jot this down (just realized its the first post of the year), I have a broad smile. This smile could end the next minute and turn into sadness. But at this moment I am smiling. The reason, though, is quite confusing. Is it cause of my own good phase where the media is supporting us so much or is it cause my best friend just got her dream? Its really confusing right now.

Let me date back to December. Its been a very tough month. I was hardly having any work other than IFFK, my grandfather fell sick all over again and then, I was having other personal issues. Add to that, I had a tiff with the best friend. It was really difficult to even think of those days. I used to believe that this is the end of another beautiful friendship in my life. Its always been like that. All the beautiful friendships I have ever been a part of have come to an end at one point or the other.

Towards the end of that month – well, also the year 2017-  I had a terrible back spasm. That made me bedridden for a week. This birthday wasn\’t the best in my memories cause I could hardly move around as per my wish but I enjoyed nevertheless. Then came \’La Musica.\’ We planned to shoot it in the first week of Jan, but I was still recovering. We postponed to the month end. When that time came, I had tooth infection, sore throat and was nauseated even on the eve of the shoot. My crew was carrying hot water flasks all through to make sure I am able to at least convey the shots I want. Just after we wrapped up the shoot, I was down with severe fever. I could hardly move again. Damn, the viral!

In between, thankfully the tiff ended. Okay, just don\’t wonder why am I talking so much about her. I realized after this fight that we would stay as best friends all through the life. There is a certain assurance I have now.

Post \’La Musica\’ release its been few shocking days. I have never received such overwhelming responses for any project of mine. Its given me a new hope, new path and a 10% more confidence as an aspiring film maker.

And today, my best friend has become a Doctor. Did I mention a tiff? Yeah, that was during her exams when she hardly spoke to me! Shh. How bad was it of me to fight with her for that? No, I am not gonna apologize to her. Damn. She is a doctor now, can you believe? I certainly cant! Listen, one day I will make you proud of me💪
