May 15, 2010. A day that has a very special place in my life. The important reason being I got through the prestigious SP Jain Institute of Management & Research, Mumbai for MBA. And the second one is on a different side altogether. I have seen my on-screen diva, greatest actor of all time. We fondly call him Chiru. For the dumb and ignorant folks, he is Megastar of Tollywood, CHIRANJEEVI. Aah...How good the name sounds. And I have not seen him on TV or the silver screen as always. He appeared right before me. Man, it was not a dream. Yes, he was right infront of me :D
If some of you are not aware, Chiru is into politics of late and found a party called Praja Rajyam, which translates to People's Land in English. To the disappointment of many die hard fans like me, he quit films for politics. How sad! And in the course, he did a praja yatra a few days back to get the Polavaram project back in action. So he toured in my hometown too. And co-incidentally and by God's grace, i happened to be in my motherland :D . From a messenger i appointed, came to know chiru was coming to the very lane where i live. See, sure this was the day where all the stars were in my favour. I was so excited to see him live. I along with my parents waited for his arrival on time. Thanks to the messenger.
And in a few minutes, there he was, the man, whose film was the first ever movie i watched. I have grown up watching his films, danced to his numbers(ofcourse when i was a kid). The man who amuses me with his amazing demeanour and fantabulous performance. The man who can make even the dumbest of dumbs dance. There he was, infront of me, clad in a khadi shirt and dhoti. Still he looked super handsome to me. To my utter frustration, he turned his head to the other side when he just passed by me. I was hell bent to grab his attention and so called out to him 'Chiru', 'Chiru'...An assistant of his finally noticed me and shown me to chiranjeevi. May God bless him. And this is the most unforgettable moment to me, Chiru turned to me, yeah he glanced at me. And i blew him a flying kiss, and he give a look that we only have a chance to watch in films. Whoa, I was instantly floored. I could see or hear nothing around. And he gave a very warm smile. And never in my life i can forget that very expression of his. Before moving out of my vision, he gave a thumbs up and i gave it back. :).
The unexpected happenings of the day made me more than ecstatic.What more can i say. The excitement of getting into SP Jain, my dream school was overruled by this incident!!
He may not be a Brad Pitt. But no one in this world can match his charm and grace. Many actors come and go, but no one can reach to chiru's level. He is always the 'Jagadekaveera' for many people. He is a father figure to me. How i wish he is of my age :D . Lot of people see only their hero in him and not a politician. Same is the case with me. How old he might be or where ever he is in future, i always adore him as my favourite hero of all times. I sincerely wish to see him back in movies. Ofcourse, not as a lover of some kid-heroine. But as a father, a leader etc. Neverthless, Chiru rules the hearts of many people and will rule the hearts of the generations to come forever.
