Again today is a guest post written by a
blogger friend Anuradha Khanna Pentapalli. She is a mommy blogger who blogs at
Mom And Ideas, where she writes about her experiences and journey as a mom. I
love reading her posts; they like a breath of fresh air. Her humour and how she
makes light of every situation are commendable.
A movie ‘X’ based on your life
Remember that X variable of your Mathematics problems? Oh,
the joy we had when we found what it was and the disappointment when it left us
confused!
Now, what if there was a movie to be made based on your life? After all,
our life is nothing less than a hit movie story, isn't it? Emotion, drama,
romance or crushes, failures, achievements, struggles… It has all the
ingredients of a movie script, right?
Let me call it ‘X’, for now until you figure out (and please share in the
comments) what you would like to call it.
It is not that I am unable to
find Indian movies with the letter X in the title, but let me assure you that
your story would be way better than the four of these:
Mr. X (1957): starring Ashok
Kumar, involves a potion that makes him invisible. Innovative, particularly at
that time, but it wasn’t a hit.
Mr. X in Bombay (1964): is a
romantic sci-fi film starring Kishor Kumar and Kumkum - definitely
not a hit but it had a beautiful song Mere Mehboob Qayamat Hogi.
Xcuse Me (2003): would make the
movies above seem much better. Excuse me, but let's not talk about it in this
blog series that lists some of the most wonderful movies of our times.
Mr. X (2015) is a 3D sci-fi
film starring Emran Hashmi. No, not worth talking about it here. Don’t even ask
why!
So, coming back to your X, where
X is the title of the movie based on your life. I am certain that it is way
better and more interesting than the ones above. So what would it be? What
would be the plot?
Would it be about romance,
finding or losing love?
Would it be about your struggles and
challenges?
Would it be about friendship?
Or a thriller?
Or the drama in your life?
Or just the fun parts?
Would it be a biography focussing
on your achievements? Trust me no achievement is small when you overcome the
difficulties in your life. You don’t need to be a famous person, everyone’s
struggles are real.
Okay, let me lead by eXample!
My X would be a series as I can go on and
on as you can figure out by the length of this post. I am still awaiting that
call from some Academy award-winning director who would make a movie on my
life… and then that movie would be a hit, then there would be a book,
interviews, money… then a movie on the new success… it can go on and on ;)
Maybe my X is
Daydreaming… LOL. What is yours?
