Drop in a line…in case anybody reads it. whether fulfilled or not…love is all about being happy and just like being bong (wink!) it’s a state of mind too!

My friends are fighting over arranged love v/s proper love shove over a story I wrote long back, on my facebook profile. Come to think of it, I never thought about it anyways. Shobhaa De’ once famously advocated arranged marriages (Yes! I read her books too! you are free to judge me though) in her book ‘Spouse’. So am not completely averse to the idea. The binding factor just needs to be that feeling. Feeling ‘out of the world’. And it might just be for the new pair of shoes you bought for yourself, freshly painted rooms, phuchka, Dev in Le Chakka/Premer Kahini, or just the classic Soumitra singing “Hoyto tomaari jonyo..hoyehci premey je bonyo/ jani tumi ononyo…ashar haat barayi….”

Has it ever happened to you?
