Addiction

5 comments
First thing first, thank you so much for your continuous love and your wonderful feedback. I love connecting with you all and mostly its about sharing one's thoughts and ideas. I mean Chris Nolan said an idea can change the freaking world, now I ain't doing that jazz, Cos that would mean I will have more responsibility to rule this world and spread Asadism but I have no plans :)

You know I had a random thought which was about addiction. I have not understood addiction till I played Yakuza3 on my Playstation3 and slept at 6am one night, what the F ... but knowing how I control over my emotions and people who know me well also know that I have a wonderful ability to switch on and off, like literally if I stop talking to someone or decide to, I erase that from my life ... it has served me well in life. I am not saying that I know it all or anything like that but I am happy with what I do. If anyone is expecting some intellectual bullshit in this blog, go and listen to Deepak Chopra, the guy is a legend , talking about Dr Deepak Chopra , ha ha I watched the little fockers and he had a special appearance and movie was fuck all ... Gosh I do not swear but that felt good .... I mean it was a typical studio executive sitting down one fine day and deciding that hey its freaking Xmas and we don't have a blockbuster and we need a movie , so lets make the fockers ... and that it was ... we were put through the misery but truth is IT IS YOUR OWN CHOICE , your inner voice telling you which movie to watch , always listen to yourself and not the critics, Cos critics will ruin the film for you by giving out spoilers. I always make my own mind up about every film, I just watched Tees Maar Khan , A Bollywood film, now the only good thing about the film was Katrina Kaif looking smoking HOT and Akshay Khanna who was brilliant , rest was all mindless bad script. People have said to me that I shall be nice about every film , well I am super nice cos I always ask you to watch every film on your account cos its about your own mind, its your decision, its your taste, I remember dragging my brother to watch Wong kar wai 2046, once the film was over, he threatened to disown me , now I loved it but he didn't ...


I have made a film which most of you are aware, things have started moving fast and we are working on final few things, will let you know when we ready to announce something, I am a perfectionist and will put my best step forward, I mean that's all I can do, and people will judge my film on its own credibility not because they like me and I am proud of my team and everyone who has worked on this.


so when it comes to watching any film, basically its your own call and your own choice, screw everyone else (literally not practically) and don't try this at home unless you are married :)

I started writing a new film, romantic comedy and film starts with the most hilarious VO and first line of the script is Saif Ali Khan, Now Saif is not in the film but its a super funny scene and I laughed and laughed till I was coughing after I read the first scene, I am quite excited about writing this.

Also I went shopping on Boxing day and only travelled five minutes to Canary Wharf and Zara was my love for that day, Happy with the stuff I got and also excited to bump into people who I knew from ages ago or who know me from TV etc, its a blessing to have nice people around you and I am super blessed.

I will never write shit about people or dis people just to make others laugh or to win spectators , each to their own and its your own battle , just live and let live.

p.s I have no freaking clue what I wrote above but I wont change anything,

see you soon, lots of love

First thing first, bowing my head down to all you guys ... you wonder why ... well I am actually embarrassed because I never kept my promise alive of blogging once a week, which is a RIGHT number ... yes once a week, last time I blogged was 5th Nov 2010. I tend to keep my promise always and my excuse will be working, shooting, mentoring, teaching , post production, shooting in snow and literally killing myself , falling ill and yes being lazy ...

I have so much to share with you guys, I mean I have like a million billion thoughts in my head everyday, sometimes some of them are worth sharing and some aren't. I recently tweeted that I read somewhere that always speak well of others even if they don't, that should cause them some embarrassment even though it probably wont cos they lack self respect and are just pure losers. I don't think there is such a thing as a Loser ... All popular people deep down are losers cos they are scared of being alone or being acknowledged ...

I was in Royal China last night for dinner with my co producer of 7- welcome to London as she was travelling to join her family in India, her husband and daughter left a day before and we decided to meet to discuss work  and catch up. In the midst of our dinner , this Bollywood Actor called Aftab Shivdasani walked in and sat two tables away from us. I always studied body languages and I was actually in stitches  as he was hoping that people will recognise him so he was putting his head down , after five minutes he realised that there were no Desi people there and his hunger of being recognised was all over the place so he kept looking up flapping his arms etc. See the hunger of knowing that you should be recognised is like a drug.

On the contrary to that my brother always tells me off for being super nice and talking to everyone, (If someone comes up to me , I am always nice ) or I get told by my mum for being a tramp, yes my mother tells me off for being dressed in my track bottoms when I am at home, I always tell my brother that your work speaks for you and we are a public commodity and well tracks make it comfortable for me to switch on between work and gym but when I head out  I look like a million bucks or I believe ... p.s I am not kidding , wink wink

Truth is hard to handle , yes one has to be sure of themselves, I certainly am happy with what I do or have achieved and will continue on working hard at my goals and mission statements in life.


I have been blessed with amazing people in my life. From my parents to my closed loves ones or people I have faith in and trust. Thank you so much for being part of my life , for putting up with me and for trusting me. Also if i have ever hurt someone intentionally or unintentionally, please forgive me. By saying sorry I can only feel better and sleep well and I do not feel small.

I want to write more but will do in a day or two, for now I think this is enough,

Merry Christmas to all my loved ones and to everyone out there, please keep me in your prayers and remember to be nice and have a great time with family

peace out and love

Asad xx
