Jab Harry Met my heart...

7th of August.
49 degrees centigrade in lava land Kuwait.
I got all dressed up. Wearing my Heart excitement Guccis and my soul scented euphoria.
It's finally My Hot Jab Harry Met Sejal Day! First time since years, i couldn't attent FDFS for a Shah Rukh Khan film. I had to travel between two continents to go live this unique experience of being trapped with him in a room for two hours and something. (not that a stuck in an elevator fantasy wouldn't do tho) but it was totally worth it!
Nabokov said"Imagination is the muscle of the soul" and i have been excessively working out on that since i've known Him (sorry nabokov, not you i meant i hope u don't mind)
Being His ardent Fan and lover i have seen all his endeavours, his ambitious projects, be it movies or even ads and he never failed to amaze me every single time! and i am the hardest to please.
He digs out of his soul layers to deliver an out of his world performance that astonishes the artist in me more than the viewer. says a lot about the calibre of actor he actually is and i know the iceberg of his talent is yet to be scratched with all its nuances and flashing sparks.
I am a tourist guide by profession. i lived The life of Harry the Punjabi Tour guide who has identity issues, homeless with a home in each city he thinks he knows by heart till he dreams and it turns into a nightmare. I Know about giving others of what you helplessly need. i do feel how it feels to wave a goodbye with a smiling please stay and i know how cold the wind howls in lonely streets afterwards. i felt the Harry in me growling with every still. He sells time and guides others to their ideas of fun in strange places, He understands the geography of the moments and the history of oblivion.
Harry is a tourist guide based in Europe, extremely handsome and that is a treat (both for our eyes and the story) it's perfectly natural for girls traveling abroad in a group to get attracted to the sexy tour guide (and vice versa) they get this feeling of breaking free, doing all they can't do back home including boosting their feminine ego by trying to get his attention in a light way normally and they both know its temporary till the trip ends and in our beautiful case here till the ring is found (once i got a marriage proposal tho but of course i had to convince the french guy that the ancient Egyptian Gods will curse me to hell if i accepted so he took his ring back to his fiancee) 
 
it's a raw take on human behavious, i saw it in real life and lived it! mesmerized me how graciously both SRK and Imtiaz got to wholeheartedly unfold it the way they did.
i got flashbacks of my life as a tourist guide with Harry and Sejal. it's stunning to me how Imtiaz Ali to whom i am a big fan could reach such deep layers of a difficult topics everytime! with so much lighthearted simplicity and fresh takes. 
His cadres are pure Art, paintings of emotions and passion. And we get to see unbuttoned shirted Shah Rukh Khan romancing His love in Cold Budapest with a warm smile giving us all kinds of feels and spine shivers (knowing he definitely had them too in his cold bitten bones) 
Harry is a ball of emotions rolling down the hill of a true love found after he thought he lost it to the yellow fields of Punjab. he is vulnerable to this feeling, he fought it with more indifference and sometimes even harshness and so did sejal, she keeps trying to get his affection as a selfish girl so full of herself playing with the fire of the seducing game until it burned them both to life.
this void inside that no one could fill but the one who is seeking to. Harry got me completely, i wanted to hug his head when he woke up crying (there, i lost all my trials to professional here) i felt then a tear roll softly on my cold cheeck. i wish this scene was a bit longer. 
I saw his hidden desire blowing in his eyes with the mad wind that held him calling out for Sejal as she is sitting right behind him by that sea of turmoil. He knows she will leave like they all do and breaks his heart but who can stand in front of this silly emotion. even cheap Harry couldn't. he finally gave in to the mighty 'Sejal" Hurricane for there is a reason why they get named after people. 
I Particularly loved Lisbon cobblestones takes, this Fado song ate me from inside. i still feel myself trembling till now at the silent tears at this revelation moment.
I liked the ring metaphor for everything we think we look for, we believe we seek and try hard to find tho it is the one seeking us, and we get found. the self discovery of our lost emotions or better the all the time in our heart bags that come out in the time we are ready to let them be. when we are aware of their existence but may be we don't need it anymore.
the scene of Sejal watching Harry in the very beginning from her balcony is marvelous. how she knew by then something got tackled in her soul. he somehow touched her from all this distance, i enjoyed this fuzzy feeling of breaking open. 
Anushka took my breath away as Sejal, all the irritating silliness and sometimes rough attitude is well portrayed an so real for a girl who works with laws and regulations and knows she is about to break every single one. 
Shah Rukh Khan who brilliantly wore Harry is again not found! i didnt see a Raj or a Rahul in Jab Harry met Sejal. this is another new romantic perspective that he sensitively depicted.not many can get this top notch performance i understand. but i was in awe. how does he manage it? (He has a great manager! Ok sorry i couldn't help it :p)
He gives birth to a new Him with every role, that is his power as an actor. He surprised me  and as i claim to be a little familiar with the art of words, i was speechless before his eloquent eyes vocabulary. 
Jab Harry Met Sejal is a beautiful film. an enjoyable experience. A dose of light and romance and that we desperately need in these Bloody hard times. the picturesque locations are an element in all Imtiaz_Hair all over the place_ Ali that i personally look forward to, the magical captions of nature's beauty is his domain and he got all kinds of delights in this one hands down (including this smexy chest tattoo flashes that we needed a full close up of though)
very good comic timings between Shah Rukh and Anushka. i laughed with these gangster scenes and loved how they managed the eyes language even then.
The background score is just perfect! perhaps the best music Album i heard in so long! every song fits gloriously especially Yaadon mein and Ghar..i wish they can released in videos (with english subtitles please)
I WAS in a dream watching jab harry met sejal. so much unspoken passion that took me to a world only Shah Rukh Khan CAN do. a fairytale i live with him everytime he breathes. a true blue romantic u are my love! you can deny it all u want but it's THERE! in those lil intimate gestures ur body screams even when ur lips are sealed. 
that moment when u asked Sejal to hug u, i wrapped both my arms tight and held u in a moment i took with me off the dark room. Only YOU could do that to a frightened, insecure, crazy, silly and confused to clarity poet. and if this is not success i donno what is.
It's a film to be watched with heart eyes and felt with soul beats. we owe it to our tiered beings in this heartless universe. a fresh spring breeze in an endless emotionless winter.
finally(i probably bored the hell out of u by now but bear with me please bec some words are stuck in my throat) ART is free, all u can do is to accept it. let it touch you in its own way, interpret it as it relatively move you no standards for that nor collections.
Let yourself be driven to the power that pulls you, expect nothing but from your own will.
Go for Jab Harry met Sejal with a heart, only then u can find what you seek, seeking you.

P.S. i took that (king) size bed with me too. u don't mind NE? 
I LOVE YOU Shah...Forever and beyond!
A tour guide who would leave her life to runaway with Her "H(e)rry".
