MUSIC, DANCE & ME

Hai there..well i could not make it yesterday..Oh lord! days are getting busier now..Ok listen, this morning i was flipping through a magazine and read a small article..I really dont know what these scientists are really upto..First they tell us falling in love is good for you.And now,they tell us,"Whoops! False alarm,its not so good after all."Yeah,they have now issued a warning that love puts your body through the same amount of stress that fear does.And too much of it can be really harmful..Hmm..so if what they are saying is true,you have a choice to make my dear.A lonely,healthy alone..or a short,happy one?No contest:-) think about it...Well right now i am listening to a beautiful romantic song from Jodha Akbar [its a indian movie..] awesome songs..A.R rehaman's music is so diffrent from the others and so soothing and very pleasing to ears.I am listening to...In lamhon ke daman mein pakeezah se rishte hain,Koi kalma mohabbat ka dohrate farishte hain.This takes me off to a dream land..The starting lines of the song is so beautiful..of course it has to be written by javed akhtar..and sonu nigam's singing is marvelleous as ever..even madhushree sang well..You know even though i dont understand most of the words and their meanings,i have always loved ghazals..but my friends and cousins always tease me saying that i should have been born in the60's or 70's..such fools ok...what do they know about ghazals..they only listen to rock n roll..Ah..instead why dont they just shout..that would be much better to hear.. :-) All have their own choice when it comes to music..But i can never be tired of soft music,ghazals,sufi music..they simply drift me to a diffrent world,i would never want to come back from..sounds crazy to you,may be but..seriously its true in my case...thats why i say i love the way i am..and i just love music..you know actually the best way to relax is to indulge yourself in some kind of dance..though we all are busy..the best way to shed those extra kilo's you have got...well i dint opt for salsa or jive,but i just went for this typical indian dance form...Kathak...Kathak is among the six major classical dances of India and one of the most dynamic theater arts in the world. The word Kathak is derived from katha, meaning "the art of storytelling." The technique of Kathak today is characterized by fast rhythmic footwork. The footwork is matched by the accompanying instruments such as tabla and they often indulge in a display of rhythmic movement.Its just wonderful.I love it and its really so beautiful to watch it also..while we are dancing,the sounds of the ghungroo(anklet) is so enchanting..i feel so delighted..And i really got back to good shape now..So why dont you go join a dance class to get back to a good shape..Well spare some time and dance to the beats..It will be awesome.. :-)
