Spellbound! The word most often used when you watch something out of the ordinary. It gets more substantiated when u await for something special n are on ur heels waiting tantalisingly what will be in store.
That is what I felt after watching RDB. Also relieved-ya relieved, for I and Aamir Khan go synonymous, at least for me, that with RDB he has just confirmed that he is not lost after the blip of Mangal Pandey. In fact, he has come back stronger.
RDB is not only a great movie but has the makings of a trendsetter in the industry.n that is where Aamir has been the best. I just fail to understand what stuff this guy is made of. How his movies are so crisp n full of flavour never smelt before. I won't enlist his films but the ensemble does inspire one's awe.
RDB is so current that everyone can feel oneself out there on the screen. A topic so tough to handle has been presented with such freshness that people just gel with it n so the movie has just sent the nation in a frenzy. I would have never written this before checking it out, for there were some spectics of the movie.
n neways, whether the movie scores financially or not, it has come as a whiff of fresh air amidst those routine mundane stuff. A league of its own.
As per its impressions on me, ya I do feel to do something for the country. n I m gonna be part of it. What I always believed about the youth, the movie has just emphasised that. So that much more grown attachment.
In fact, some of its settings are so novel that ithey can be part of the filmdom's folklore. There may be and are better movies than RDB but there will never be a movie like RDB.

Aamir Khan and Sachin Tendulkar
Aamir Khan and Sachin Tendulkar-the two persons who are the masters in their trade, have been my role models for years. It wasn't based on any reason but just some sort of affinity that drew me towards their talent, discipline and work ethos. I remember Sachin getting into my memory when he hit Abdul Qadir for 4 sixes in an over in a game at Sharjah. He was driving the whole country wild then with his prodigious talent.
Similarly Aamir had become the nation's new wonderboy and heartthrob with his cute arrival in QSQT. He was instantly recognized as an actor made for acting. I dunno how and when I grew such a big fan of him but I distinctly remember getting uneasy when Salman's MPK was faring better than Aamir's Dil. No hard feelings but it was like that.
While Aamir made debut in 1988, Sachin played his first cricket match in 1989 against the arch-rivals Pakistan. Both got noticed at the first instant only. Since then they have been delivering grand performances on a regular basis. It is not only about their records but the sheer discipline and attitude towards their work that stands them out. Both are methodical and nothing less than perfect satiates them. And so, it is no strange that both are big fans of each other. While Sachn was amongst the first to watch Ghulam while away on the Srilankan tour, Aamir has always been a cricket follower, esp. Sachin's. n they do meet quite often.
So where does it leave me then? I too, since they are my role models, to say at least, would like to emulate them.n what about my wish? Ya, it is to have a dinner with both my heroes together. But will it be possible? If yes, then when?
