Pyaar Ko Ho Jaane Do...

Saw the movie Dushman after ages today. I remember it have really moved me then.. & it did today as well. A touching story of a sister's fight for justice.

Whereas all the songs of this movie made a good listening, I used to love this song more when the movie had released. Still is as good.

Putting this up for my song of the month.

"प्यार को हो जाने दो...प्यार में खो जाने दो...." Guess I should be done with the 'ho jaanedo' stage & move ahead!! :p



Hope you enjoyed! :)

My M & B World!

I Admit!
Since the time I took my first Mills & Boon in my hand; more than a decade back, I have been stuck onto them. That fascinating fantasy world has kept me consistently captivated throughout the years...

To put it in a simple line for why they're irresistible for me; its for its happy endings!

Always.

The other reasons are as entertaining too!! :D

Like in the movie Inception, the plot is by someone else & some other goes to live it... likewise each book is a world which lets you imagine & live it your own way! How ideal! :P

From a century now M&B have kept women fascinated with the knight-in-shining-armour heroes to the latest urban Adonis.. & women have never gotten tired of creating these dreamy heroes!
The damsel-in-distress rescued by the TDH [Tall Dark Handsome, for the unawares] concept has been a hit for ages now! [Sounds SO cliched...but it works!! ;) ]
No wonder it is read in around 99 countries, including the latest addition of our very own India; having our very own desi authors penning down one romance after another. Am I looking forward to it? Maybe just!!

I personally call it my stress buster!
Whenever I'm in a good mood, I pick one to read...or whenever I'm just in the mood to read one, I pick up one ..& even when I'm too much under the bridge...& need a reprieve, a M&B is what I pull out. It instantly starts setting my frown straight.
Its like I don't have to think of wanting to read one or no. Its one brand, constant for all seasons, all occasions! ;)



Am I sounding hopelessly romantic?

Well, I don't mind it. Letting the sane overpowering side go for a holiday, I do let that hopelessly romantic side go silly when I am reading one happy fantasy to another!! :P

'Fantasies', which are not taken seriously. They very well don't exist in real life. Just one more reason for which I love reading these. Always makes me believe, that those too-good-to-be-true guys atleast exist in these books!! [ Do I hear the guys smirk? :P ]

Ofcourse, exaggeration plays a vital role in making these romances such lovable... where the hero is not only perfect to look at; but such a romantic devil, that will make any girl gladly jump off the Qutub Minar if he asks so!! The TDH concept of a guy is so droolworthy!! :P
& not to forget, the leading lady is So damn perfect & beautiful, that for a long moment it can sometimes lead you into semi depression wondering that why am I not like that!! Lol!

Between the span of 180 odd pages, the girl & the guy meet, get attracted, fight, restrain one another & finally realise they love each other & get together for a happy everafter!!

How smooth! Isin't it?

Novel after novel this is the same pattern followed...just like our Hindi romantic movies.
All the same..... just said in different ways. Some stories don't touch a chord...but some are sooo mushy...

How perfect it would be if real life was like that too....

Well, I dream on........
Yes, I totally admit, I am an impossible Mills & Boon fan! :P
