bollywood sholywood
got asked by a colleague/friend to visit the
whistling woods international..
to which i nearly jumped to say yes !
now once there was a time,
i used to be crazy to visit campuses,..
i designed a school within a campus once ~
we all have a hangover
we all have a hangover
over some kinds of .. places,
it was campuses 4 me earlier
whichever city i would be in
i made it a point to visit some of them surely.
i am going to list out all the places of learning
i have been lucky to have been to :
although there maybe quite a few,
kalina campus, fort campus, university of mumbai;
cambridge and oxford university towns
( cambridge is a gem .. unparalled !!!!! its built by and is on the river cam.
nid, cept, nirma and iim ahmedabad ..
again ! cept ! omg! .......... it's .. a campus like no other!..
MS university campuses in baroda..( various ), ...
spa, dels..; university of westminster (the courtyard size reminded me of a matrix movie scene ).. ..iit bombay ( BIOME paradise ).. jnu ( jnu is a social experience by itself ) ! .. oh .. many more ...iit delhi ( nopes!)...and quite a few more ! ...
i don't have this .. fetish anymore .. i grew out of it..
so anyway ..
this fine mumbai day..
perfect mumbai picnic weather day ..
we are at whistling woods ..
and what i saw .. really . . blew my mind !!!
it's a film and media institute .. and
sach a creative vibe there ..
saw a few ... ' artists' .. and actually altho we see these 'character artists ... and even remember them .. still i did not know their name .. and .. henc i didn't go and say hello ... ..uhho .. ( rach sudhar ja ! ).. ( no .. imma b8er ..2daye .. on star! following!!! :) wink!!! :) [ lol ! ]
saw lots of .. behind the scenes work . .
all the pre and post production .. .it was amazing !
at the time they were editing a french movie... and sound boxing another ..
neway.. we were there with a business proposal of no small feat; so yes . .we were recieved extremely warmly ... but .. it's i beleive .. also a.. way of their functioning .. we ended up with a meeting with ms maegna gai..
and she's a sweet warm and gracious .. lady .. really ... all that ab... star daughter syndrome.. there ... really is a truth to the quote in,
' the go-giver ' : that the bigger they are, nicer they are ... ( altho i am v nice too ,okay!)
think of this : ... you are your own trademark ,
and if you wont .. be nice gentle receiving .. to life around you ? ..! who is gonna be interested in you .. anyway ?! .. .. !!!!
later there was gonna be a play by ... mr anupam kher ( oh we all love him soun much ) /..
however i could not stay back .. for it ...
i have seen anupam kher jie in london ..
and that was wonderfulll !!!!! he's wonderfull !!!!
neway .. so there's a huge scope for ..creative media industry work in punjab too ..
the language itself is .. made for singing or so i believe.
and they do so much .. original art there ..
and there's a word of mouth going on : that every farmer worth himself is running to either record a song, or model or turn to acting .. ( and this is amazing! no?! ) ..
tho the real truth of it is this .. omg ! the music .. is .. soooooooo original! ... and i am glad for all these punju singers to get .. whatever chances they get to make their art!
this sort of .. charhdie kala .. is amazing .. ! ...
why did i write this long winded ... day of my life here ... with you ... all ..and .. .now it seems to me it may be a tad boring one ! ...
....
it was a cool happy day at whistling woods . .and ..
being from bombay .. we spend a lifetime answering, so who are the stars you met/seen ? ! ..
er .. umm ..
i am a star!!!! :)
