A Moment Of Clarity

Alarmaaaa!

Recently I had been with a friend to watch a show of Evam's latest production 'Chapter 2'. Now this friend of mine is generally very sensitive towards public displays of affection. She generally finds it hard to digest the fact that people could smooch one another or caress on stage!

As the play was progressing, she was tipped off by another friend that there was gonna be a hot, passionate smooch on the stage! Arrrgghh...her mind was racing, and she started imagining things and was sitting with the anxiety of every scene being 'the' scene!!...she couldnt control the nervous excitement until it finally happened!! And when it did, her internal alarms went on an overdrive!

As the scene was going on, she was mumbling 'Oh my god, i cant believe they're doing it...He's married, how could he?...I can only see, i cant hear anything...My mind has blanked out...It's all hazy to me...I can see smoke all around myself...Whats happening...' and was constantly looking around trying to judge other people's reactions to the same. In the meantime, I couldnt help but enjoy the show in front of me and simultaneously admire the mini-circus that was being enacted right next to me! :)

  • Best place to find couple's happily making out is the corner couch seats in Studio 5... next time you go there for a movie don't forget about the free entertainment a few seats from you!

  • If it's a kissing scene in a movie, it was shot only once (maybe a few retakes)
    But if it's on stage..
    Each time!! mm.. nadathunga :-)
