Aandhi.....1975

Aandhi (Storm) was not usual bollywood film from any description. It was released on 14th Feb 1975, just 37 years ago. It was banned immediately after the release. For some odd reason, the images of the movie have stayed with me since 1977 (when it was released on Doordarshan) after emergency. The plot is rare, it is about solitude of two people, who were married at one point of time and loved each other . Distances grew and affection got eclipsed, it never diminished. If it can diminish, it wasn't love in first place.
It was a strange day today, i have spent lots of day in complete mental isolation within the marketplace of this world,today however revealed that my solitude is more deep rooted ...
Life has gone  a full circle, everything around me so looks so dominating ..the people,the work , the society, all in race to declare victory over each other ...
I have taken refuge in my solitude again, to never emerge again....
This book is not open for review.... 

इस मोड़ से जाते है, कुछ सुस्त कदम रस्ते
कुछ तेज कदम राहे
पत्थर की हवेली को, शीशे के घरोंदो में
तिनको के नशेमन तक.......

आंधी की तरह उड़कर, एक राह गुजरती है
शरमाती हुयी कोई, क़दमों से उतरती है
इन रेशमी राहो में, एक राह तो वो होगी
तुम तक जो पहुचती है.....

एक दूर से आती है,पास आके पलटती है
एक राह अकेली सी, रुकती हैं ना चलती है
ये सोच के बैठी हूँ, एक राह तो वो होगी
तुम तक जो पहुचती है.......
