<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><i>Look, this is a fairy tale.</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><i>I believe in fairy tales more than I believe in God. Don’t you know that all the time a prince will come to save the maiden who was put in solitary confinement?</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><i>Those who detest stories will be sceptical about it.</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><i>I had a sister who used to laugh when someone said the celestial lover is an illusory construct. Those who have a personal celestial lover know that he is a more comforting presence than a lover or a husband.</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><i>When my sister was pregnant all the people around waited secretly to grab her paramour. </i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><i>It was then that they heard my sister talking to her celestial lover. </i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><i>But the celestial lover visible only before my sister, remained invisible to them all.</i></span><br />
<i style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">The next day they drew certain designs on the floor and made my sister sit in its centre. They chanted mantras and her celestial lover was nailed on the nearby tree.</i><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><i>Later they set ablaze the tree.</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><i>My sister alone heard the heartbreaking cry of the celestial lover who was burnt alive. </i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><i>It was unbearable for her.</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><i>She cried and cried and at last put an end to her life on the edge of a rope.</i></span><br />

<i><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Hallucination has sufficient reasons.</span></i><br />
<i><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">It is a form of struggle for existence.</span></i><br />
<i><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">It is a kind of fulfilment of one’s distressed and covert desires.</span></i><br />
<i><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Isn’t sleep a means for constructing dreams? Or else one can say that the one third of our life is wasted.</span></i><br />

<i><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">What should have been done by the girl in the play 'Nagamandala' who was locked up in a room? </span></i><i><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">She was narrating a story… a fairy tale.</span></i><br />
<i><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">If you probe further, at the end of all hallucinations there is surely a dialectical answer. But aesthetically it is good not to mind it at all.</span></i><br />
<i><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Look, ‘acting is so much more real than life’, and I believe it.</span></i></div>

provided an opportunity for this people and their language to be discussed at
least in India. The media are aware now that such a language is there in India
and nearly two million people exist. They now slowly get news value. Their
celebrations, customs, deaths, accidents, violence, everything start getting
attention. If a film can do all these it has a message to my fellow film
makers. Turn your camera to the farthest corners of India, to the margins;
there you see life, life hitherto left unrecorded.<a href="http://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=9123625674479815732" name="_GoBack"></a><o:p></o:p></span></i></span></div>
