the Rise & Fall, of the Uncommon...

A Journey that I was sooo confident of, of myself ending-up on the tOp.

Started from Ground Zero, to be more precise, from the Sea Level, the Land, the Ground, Just where you & I live. It all started with a dream of becoming the world's best Automobile designer, but things & situations changed in my lyf, drastically! And ultimately I found myself in Mumbai, doing an Animation degree course at Rai University, the year was A.D. 2004. Soon after a year at RU, it again started fading, the dream, that I was sooo confident of reaching one day. RU almost closed down & I was, n many more, were left doing nothing, on the empty streets of wilderness. The unknown was the only future, blank was my mind, but Not-Done was my heart. I got registered with MAAC. Following my dreams, I did well, bloody well in my words. Was the first one, who got a job even before the 30% completion of the course. Dreams grew big & I left my first job, winning 24FPS was my whole-sole target then & the rest is History...

That was the tym I had just finished only my 50% course. But I left it, to work in India's finest animation studio, AniRights Infomedia.

AniRights, as everyone in my industry knows, grew in & as BIG Animation, It was a merger between AniRights & Reliance ADAG. I was flying high, 2nd best increment in my team only after my team lead, leaving every seniors behind, such was the Speed... of my Rise.

A year past, I was at my creative best, so I thought of leaving BIG-A and venture into the world to spread my wings, wyd. To reach the blue sky & the golden heights, was the only thing in my mind, just when my lyf saw an apocalypse. Leaving BIG-A was at first just a thought, but the incident made it my Helplessness & I had to leave the finest working place for animators in India. It was the end of an Era, the End of the finest chapter of my lyf. Here I was, Here I am, still. I had fallen, A year back, the Uncommon...

In last one year, I saw myself taking & leaving 3 jobs, when the commons were & are dying to get a job, still. Maybe another Stage is yet to be set, as the previous one had been gone, long. Maybe I had not fallen a year back, but yes I had felt the feeling of the fallen (the feeling that still creeps insyd my heart) in the last days of the A.D. 2008.

Rising in early '07 to my full glory & seeing myself tasting dust by the end of '08, is the perfect example one must learn from. It was a downfall without mistakes, it wasn't a downfall of Me Myself or I, it was a downfall of My trust, the very end of it.

Rising from the grounds to the unending skies & falling into the depths far below the trenches unknown. Sitting in the Darkness, I still wonder why, why am I alone? why did I fell? Even when i know that am same from insyd, still, forever n whole!

I wonder why... And the Journey goes on, still.

..Encumbered forever by desire and ambition

There's a hunger still unsatisfied

My weary eyes still stray to the horizon

Though down this road I've been so many times...
