We were at Moti Mahal, with live gazal. Saket and I were enjoying this, when I got an urge to listen to my favorite number. Called the waiter and tried to write in hindi, but gave up soon (have not written for 12 years in hindi). Saket laughed and wrote down the Gazal name. Soon they were singing “Aaj jane ki zid na karo” which was originally sung by none other then “Malika-e-Ghazal” i.e. Queen of Ghazal, Farida Khanum. Both of us were acting like real professional listeners, nodding our heads, waving our hands, “Wah, wah” on our lips. Saket seemed mesmerized in this snap, and its the same feeling I get when I listen to this number. A true master piece. Neha and Nanu thought we both had gone nuts.
“Aj Jane kii Zid na karo
Yuhi pahalu mein baite raho
Haye!! Mar jayenge Hum tho Laut jayenge
Aisi Baatein kiya na karo”

Whats on your mind?

Although photographs revel a lot of information… like how did the person look, what was he/she wearing, the surroundings etc.. some are intriguing… they leave you with many questions . I think this one makes you wonder what on her mind… did she get a bad news, is she bored.. or perhaps…. Nothing special actually.. its not so complicated, Priya was deciding the what to order while someone was holding up the menu for her when I captured this.

I like photographs which are spontaneous, where the subject is not conscious. Neha here was laughing at a joke (definitely not mine) when I captured this. Gave it an aged look later and it looks nice I think. It has some noise because of a high ISO, since it was clicked in a low lighting condition without flash.
