Tribute to Irrfan Khan!

Bollywood has produced some terrific stalwarts over the years. The list is huge and for all practical purposes it's not possible to list them here, moreover it would be unfair to name just a few. But every time we lost one to cruel fate, we would always wonder if that person could ever be replaced.
 

Irrfan Khan stepped into the limelight, giving us renewed hope and cheer. His lanky swag, mesmerizing eyes and drawly voice created a new benchmark. 

His screen presence was imposing and even though he was pitted against established actors, he held his own. 

Undoubtedly, he was a late entrant when compared with many others, nevertheless he surpassed many when it came to performances and impressions. 

You will be sorely missed Irrfan Khan, not only by your fans and admirers, but also by filmmakers for whom you were the perfect option to the reigning superstars. 

With a heavy heart we add yet another name to the memorable and distinguished list, of which you are a notable part. 

Circumstances prevented us from giving you a fitting farewell. The turnout would have been stupendous, leaving no doubt about how much you were loved. 

Goodbye Sir, thanks for entertaining and leaving us with undying memories.

 

Death--End or A New Beginning!

Life has another dimension and that is death. Death is the second phase, transfer of the soul to the unknown, to a life beyond. 

 

Where the soul is supreme, unplagued by physical shortcomings. Death is free from life's perplexities and there is no sense of false security which we embrace during life. 

 

When death knocks on our door, it frowns upon the vicious cycle of our life, where we spend an eternity clamouring for riches, recognition, accumulation and violating tons of tenets of humanity. 

 

Death allows us to recap our life in those moments preceding the end, which could last a moment, hours or even days. 

 

Death is the revelation many of us fear and dread. It is unforgiving, brutally honest and focused in its approach. 

 

It doesn't procrastinate or succumb to pressures or relent in it's goal. It comes with a purpose, achieves and leaves. 

 

Death is glory for the victim, but grief for the loved ones. 

 

Death is emancipation for the soul from a sickened body. 

 

The soul is now free as a bird, invisible to the human eye and spends eternity as a memory for others, and bliss for itself.
