<span class=normal>You know, Ive acted in over 50 full length movies, if I took you through a journey of each title, wed be sitting here forever and youd all end up fast asleep (this wonderful venue being most un-cemetery like notwithstanding) so Ill wrap up with my last two lessons. <br><br><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>Live from the heart. Dil Se. Love. Love people, love the world around you, love animals and birds, and big cities and mountains, love dreams, love life, love your work, your friends and your enemies even if you feel least like it. Most importantly, my friends; love yourselves. Embrace all that this life has in store for you, let your heart be as deep as the deepest ocean and as wide as the farthest horizon. Know that it is limitless. Love is not an excuse to grab or to hold or to own or to barter. It is the only excuse you will ever have to call yourself special. And if someone you love lets you down, dont fault yourself for not trusting him, fault yourself for not trusting your love enough to forgive his/her trespasses. <br><br><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>You never know what the future will bring, whether there will be a tomorrow or not. I died at a shockingly young age in a movie called Kal Ho Na Ho which means exactly that. And I wasnt even a smoker!!! I never let my two older children watch it to the end; we even filmed a whole alternate ending especially for them. But now they have grown up and like all of you, will soon be embarking on a wondrous journey of their own. Instead of trying to protect them from life, the wiser and older version of me grabs every chance to tell them: live as hard as you can in this very moment. Live now. Live today. You may not see it with your youthful eyes, but NOW is as much time as you will ever get. Because tomorrow we will all be dead. And just in case there is no cycle of rebirth etc…why take a chance. I dont want to end this on a cynical note by reminding you about the reality of death. I want to let you all know that how important your today…your now is. Study hard. Work hard. Play harder. Dont be bound by rules…dont hurt anybody and never ever live somebody elses dream. Remember however many times you go wrong, no matter how many times you fail, despair, feel like this world is against you….in the words of Bob Marley…at the end everythings gonna be alright. And in my words. Hindi filmon ki tarah life mein bhi, anth mein sab kuch theek ho jaata hai. Aur agar na ho, toh woh anth nahi hai…picture abhi baaki hai mere doston. Take it as the only truth you need to know. Take it and believe it because the most unlikely to make it Bollywoood is telling you this…the most romantic hero who doesnt look anything like chocolate or taste like it. <br><br><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>Now all you bored professors out there in the first row, come on up: lets do the Lungi Dance!!! </span>
