A friend of mine, painstakingly made a memorial video of his late sister who passed away from cancer, sadly, before he got the opportunity to meet her (yes, it’s a long, tragic story).
So, then in my demanding-princess mode, I demanded a video for myself. And guess what, he actually went and created one, and set it to a very 90’s-esqe remixed version of ABBA’s Dancing Queen. Whoohoo!
It’s on Utube and my friend ALTAF has already posted a devious comment (something about me indulging in Odissi-esqe movements when I wish to make a point)! The video is titled THE MERRIL and is hilarious. No, actually it’s a little ridiculous in a goofy sort of way, because it features me in different moods, sometimes posing, sometimes sleeping, sometimes pretending to be maternal.
There’s one with me and a lil’ un in my arms. No, the kid isn’t mine. But a cute little cherub called Dhruv who enjoys making conversations with inanimate objects and posters that sport sexy flamenco dancers, baring cleavage, et al. Me thinks he takes after his pop.
And there’s another one of me and a guy. Cousins pay heed. That is not my guy but that of my school friend Mobash.
And then there’s a pic of me and Yael (in a black shirt and introduced to me by the video-maker), who is somewhat dysfunctional, yet a good human being (on most days), when she’s not all angst-y.
The pic of me with sunglasses is hilarious. I was getting ready for work and a friend of mine (the video-maker) asked me to strike a pose. That ugly, fat, orange bangle HAS to go! By the way, these pics were taken when I had long locks. They have now been snipped off, and I have a short crop.
heyyyyyy… this i got to see… I presume Al made the video.. and it features Dhruv!!! Yaaaayyyyy!!!!!!!! p.s.He’s given up talking to posters. He talks to real women who look hot.. and ofcourse Shireen Bahn whenever she comes on CNBC.
Hehehehe…. come on, not devious!
It is in zest and reflects a little reality
