Thappad

Dear Amu (from Thappad)

First off, how did you do it.
How did you give up everything you loved to be a part of someone else’s life and you selflessly found joy in that.
No no don’t me get me wrong, I know you were in love, and you found that perfect blue door, par blue was never your favourite colour na?

Why does it take something extreme, to show us what we’ve truly be missing?
A line of yours really struck me, ” Agar rishte jod kar rakhne pade, matlab wo toote hai na”
You left me in awe, when you said, how many relationships have we held onto, that broke us from within.

It was that moment that too, where everything I had been ignoring was right in front of me, crystal clear.

You see I had this warped idea of romance, and bollywood only fuelled it, I guess it’s safe to say, I needed you to teach me how to unlove.
