And then meeting up with Divya and Nandita at another radio studio and donating books for their Shiksha scheme, which the EF has so generously contributed, to encourage youngsters to study .. felt proud that EF has involved itself in such social services .. thank you … made me feel so good !!

Then back to Tv interviews and change of costumes for each one .. striking and fascinating how the entire world of Tv works .. the ship on the beach has caused a minor exodus in the city … they are all leaving their homes and converging at Juhu to have a glimpse of this monstrous ship tanker, that has become a part of the beach now .. efforts being made to get it unstuck, have failed after 2 attempts ! Just thought I would let you know.

The crowds that congregate at the shore spill over towards the rest of the region and so there are hundreds of very curious people at Jalsa, it having fallen en route to the mass of humanity moving away after giving there worthy opinion on what should be done to remove the vessel. They all behave as though they did not belong to the city and were on a sight seeing visit. But eventually they all come about and listen. A most important factor in debate and discussion …

There has been a setback in the health I think .. a congestion arises in the chest and the throat has become hoarse and painful at the glands … so back to home doctor and on to antibiotics to control it … it could also be from the fact that I normally speak as much as I did in the past few days, in a year. My entire quota for the year ending 2011 would still be less than what I have done in the last 2 days. That is a lot of talking ! And when I do get back home its like being drugged … just dozing off even while standing and lack of complete energy. This is not good, once a chest condition begins with me it takes forever to heal and become normal. So its best given the treatment before it gets out of hand …

And back home then to a documentary being seen by the son and the niece on … Justin Beeber !! A heartthrob of the young, cute and with many skills .. recommended by ? yes you got it right … it m/s  Navya Naveli Nanda !! A huge fan, starts screaming and shouting even at the mention of his name - Justin’s name !! And I think to myself ” what a wonderful world this is “, something at least excites the children of today, even tough they will be seeing it in the film, but yes the proportion needs attention …

The drug for the condition of the chest seems to be playing havoc with my system. Just nodding  off when I have no desire to do so. Soon then, I shall be ending todays conversation with the entire media conducted by relevant people.

I always wonder what the media thinks of film promotions and what is the best way to run the campaign through them. On location shooting of film has its advantages .. media does not land up theirs even before. So all the information has to be gathered and shared with the person concerned.

Now a famous adage screams at top price on the film, which is crumbling up to her. When we move individually, we work better … enough no more … its quo vadis time, so I shall solo !! Upsetting, but what to do ; in life every one cannot have everything. The name of the film is topical, but an intense story, dramatic and cool at times !! keeping this in mind a lot of the dresses were lined up and donated to the staff and our children from the monsoons chic is indeed praise worthy …

Look after yourself all my Ef .. i close now because genuinely  humne pehli baar dekha .. koi bhi insaan chota nahin hota .. !! Great stuff .. if my help is required the  a quick response invites the rich to come in and experiment.

Finally struggling to keep awake … good night !!
