Indeed it has been a very long time since i wrote anything here. Although a lot of my writing is now stored in hard copies, which i prefer nowadays for some stupidly romantic antique reasons, i am happy enough to be writing here again.
i wanted to write today about an old school friend of mine till i came across this video on facebook.
Sidharth Narayan: a really good looking and charming actor and a person whom i wished was my family member.
when i first liked him, it was mainly for his looks, and secondarily for his acting which one would have accepted for his looks.
Then i started hating him when i realized that he was divorced. the news that came was rather put like this "he divorced his wife for Soha Ali Khan who eventually dumped him" i never watched his movies with the same enthusiasm. even today, i dont have a good opinion about people who get divorced for absolutely silly reasons forgetting the commitment they make towards each other when they actually decide to get married.
Recently, when i came across some movie of his, i was not very uncomfortable as i was watching it as a critic without any expectations from sidharth as a person, but expectations from him as a potential actor. thats how i watch movies nowadays. i have no interest in watching movies for timepass. i would like to know something from it, or i would want a real good entertainment and movies that have scenes and clippings from English, French, Spanish, Italian and all the other possible languages repeated exactly the same annoy me to the core. it looks as though Indian cinema has lost its individuality. (Nowadays i m writing a lot about individuality.) Those copied jokes, or fight scenes or sentimental/emotional scenes do not entertain me even a tiny rodent's a***e. In indian movies, the current ones to be more specific, you would only find love stories, may be about 1% would have something to about changing the pathetic state of the country or something of that sort, but the same movie would have irrelevant scenes of comedy, dance, and mushy romantic scenes. or the other movies with the title claiming to deliver such messages, would have the latter in them.
Well, this post is mainly to talk about individuality in terms of sidharth than indian cinema.
here is a link of the video that really impressed me and i got over the hatred i had for him.
I no longer hate him, but neither do i love him as crazy as i did in my adolosense. i am just open. it doesnt matter if he is divorced or he dumped his wife or if he is even chasing some other woman.... because i am surely not going to marry him and live a whole life with him for me to judge him on any criteria.
So here goes my opinion about him now
Sidharth Narayan- a socially responsible versatile actor.
(if you try to derive some pun out of this line, you may surely go ahead.. but i did not mean it though)
Hope you like the video, and let people be what they are and sidharth here for this conversation.

You're right! He's socially responsible & the video shows. Especially the portion where he says he went to give a cheque of Rs 5 lakhs and subsequently, the treatment he got at the CM's office!
I enjoyed this video despite its length. It made me think a lot. As you say, who are we to judge his character? :) We're not going to be married to him. Even when there's no loving his screen presence, let there be no hate! Peace out. :)
Lovely write-up about the video. Thoroughly enjoyed! :) Good one, Amzu!
