There are a lot of memories but one of the most touching ones is, it was May 2013 and Ma had a really stiff neck. She was in a lot of pain.

I had just come back from the market after picking up a few groceries and after entering the house I said "Kinni garmi aa baar. Haye Rabba!!"

I kept the groceries in the kitchen and went to my room.

Now my Ma, who was having a lot of difficulty to sit or stand or move freely, quietly got up and brought me a glass of water and a face towel.

That was yet another time I believed in the saying "God couldn't be everywhere, so he made mothers"

-

"You don't love me anymore. This tiny new baby is all who you care for. I only love daddy" - saying these words she ran into her room

After a while, tired of playing with her teddy she came out of her room and saw an enchanting sight.

Mumma was slicing mangoes and offered her a whole plate of the yummy treat!!

"I love you Mumma. I know you love me too."

Fer oh sama yaad aa janda hai
Jihde karke ajj vi mann dard bhara hauka maar ke, dil nu oh peerh yaad kara janda hai.

Ek alag hi nasha hai;
Na bichadne ka gham hai,
Na milne ki koi wajah hai.

-

To know if I may have a reason to smile or just smile to hide my pain.

Getting Soan Papdi Dabbas on Diwali are equivalent to getting Coal on Christmas!!

Kehte hain yeh hai Ram Rajya
Sita thi jiska hissa rahi;
Zulm ho raha hai ab wahan,
Sita jaisi betiyon ki iss kalyug mein koi kadar nahi;
Cheekhein goonj rahi hain jahan
Mandir bann raha hai wahin.

Zindagi ki tez raftaar ne,
Shehron ki chakachaundh ne,
Sukoon ka jaise astitva hi mita diya hai.

Woh pehli barsaat aur mitti ki khushboo hum bhula chuke hain,
Paison ki baarish se ab zyada lagaav hai.

Jab batlate the saath baith kar gharwalon se Dil ka haal,
Woh pal bhula chuke hain;
2 pal ke dikhave ki ab humein bevajah aadat hai.

Dukh-dard baant te pehle bejhijhak
Do aansu bahana galat nahi lagta tha,
Ab itna dard hai seene mein
Par lafzon mein bayaan karna hum bhula chuke hain.

Ab bhi waqt hai badalne ka
Phir se bebaak hansne ka, muskurane ka,
Kaifiyat poochne ka, ghamon ko baantne ka, khushi ka izhaar karne ka

Kuch tum keh lo, kuch hum kahenge,
Dukh-sukh ke saathi phir banenge
Sukoon ke chaar palon ko hazaar baar jee lenge
Daulat ke mohtaj nahi
Insaniyat ki misaal banenge.

Shocked. Speechless. Shaken.

A fine actor, son, brother, friend, colleague....gone too soon 💔

Dard ki dhun kuch aisi chhidi hai
Dil ke taar toot kar bikharte se lag rahe hain
