Archanakavi

I am more than happy to be attending the event in spite of the fact that the shooting of “Best of Luck” begins tomorrow.Hoping to see you all there.

This is something that bothers me… when I was in Delhi- I had an identity- I was mallu… n it was fun to teach others words such as patti, thendi and all other fancy words… speaking in an alien language to my alien friends… n here I was really good at it… mookh illathe rajyathil muri mookhan rajaav.

Onam was fun, wearing set saree n laughing at guys when they struggle with mundu… ( I believe Amitabh ji was far better than them)… my brother and I were made to learn all old Malayalam songs coz v had 2 participate in Kerala Catholic Association meetings… hmmm… my grandmother had tried hard to make us read and write Malayalam.- athuu pati illa… my 1^st stage performance was a song ‘devi shri devi.’ Don’t ask me which movie it is from…

After that when I came 2 south all excited to be with my own people… I realized that I was a Delhi wali and not a Malayalee… I understood that I only knew 10% of the language I used 2 boast about… I was alien in my own land…

Love
