The marriage linked to my Alma Mater!

Every third post on my timeline reminds me of the truth that has recently become a nail in the coffin of the love of many a girl, especially of those at LSR, for Shahid Kapoor- that Shahid and Mira are soon going be held by the ties of holy matrimony.

Contrary to girls with popular reaction, I am not at all aggrieved by the news. I am happy. Very happy.

When the news was leaked initially, I was totally convinced that it was a hoax. That somebody had made it all up only to attract people to their web portal/site whatever. But the gradual rise in the confirmation posts on, again, my timeline and Mira's fb fanpage, convinced me otherwise. It took me a little time. But the news finally sunk in.

I have, obviously, not met Shahid. And not watched all of his movies. Ten years back, I liked watching 'Dil Maange More' for the only reason that Ayesha Takia played the role of a girl named Shagun. I loved when the named was called by any of the characters in the movie. That was my second Shahid movie after Ishq Vishq. But like many of us, I loved his performance in Jab We Met. Ever since, I have appreciated his acting skills like an ardent fan.  I have not met Mira either. Only watched few of her 'already-few-available' pictures online. And she seems wonderful. Both look great together.

The theme for this post is highly undecided. But somewhere, I feel, the soon to be held marriage is going to be significant because it is connected to my Alma Mater. How, you ask. Because Mira is from my college. You get it, right?
But after a little of that excitement, why am I so happy about the marriage of a girl from my college? No. It is not because the husband-to-be is the the glamorous Shahid. He is great! But the reasons for that particular sense of euphoria are beyond comprehension. Even for me. I have no clue. But every time I look up to the news, the same sense of mutual connection strikes me. I feel elated.

And then I realize that may be, it is because of college. I am reminded of the fun. I wish to go back. I wish I could relive those three years that Mira has just completed. May be, it is not about Shahid-Mira wedding at all. It is only about the desire to lend an ear to the news of a girl who is one amongst the many girls who have just finished being embraced by the magic of the three grand letters- just the way I had been, two years back.
And may be thats why, I am all the more eager for the marriage.

Shahid-Mira, Thank You!! A divine feeling of jubilationb fills me as I write about my school and college. For the fear of redundancy, I had almost escaped that on this blog. But you two made me revisit the avenue. Wish you both a very happy life!
