Love does not recognise age.
A friend and I were talking about age. I have always felt that age is just what is inside your head and what you feel. In fact in one of my books, a character says this: You can be old at 22 or you can be young at 73.
I don't remember which book of mine it is! (If any of you readers remember it, kindly tell me in my comment box. My guess is it could Mrs.B from Tea for Two and a Piece of Cake or Mr.Adani from The One You Cannot Have)
In our country it seems to be taken for granted that once you reach a certain age, you have to lead a subdued life. Finding love is out of the question. You have to be content with singing Bhajans and visiting temples. The 2007 movie Cheeni Kum highlights this beautifully, where Amitabh Bachchan plays a man in his 60's who is so unlike his peers and a 30 year old woman (played by Tabu) falls in love with him.
Today I came across a beautiful video made by a son for his mother. It so totally made my day. The mother is so full of life and such a wonderful lady. So is the son!
Do read this post and do watch the video--it's a very short watch--just 4 minutes.. He filmed her secretly and she had no idea that he was doing it. Her reaction is priceless.
Whether she finds her prince Charming or not all I can say is that she is one lucky woman! So full of life. So inspiring. So beautiful. She is the kind of woman who makes you look forward to growing old.
Can you imagine anything like this happening in India? What do you say? :) Tell me in my comment box what you think.
