The D-Day !

I love Sidharth Malhotra ! 

No, not in the "I wish he marries me" kinda way ! Of course I was blown away by how handsome he was, but gradually its his humility, graciousness and total gentleman qualities that made me totally love him for the Actor he is, for the Star he is and for the Person he is ! 

If you are a Hard core fan there are few things you dream of, but hey a true fan always loves their favorite star irrespective of these dreams coming true ;)

I have been fortunate to check few off my list however I so wanted to meet or at least see him once for real ! Lot of my fellow Sidians have seen him, some met him, some have pics with him... I never really envied them but I always wondered will my day ever come? And so it did !!!

Thanks to Shruti for mentioning he might attend this event in Delhi on 19th October 2014 !

The place is a good 22 km away from where I stay, we reached well in advance to ensure we get to see him from the closest possible distance ! There were some activities before where Shruti was called on Stage and I got to mouth his famous "Maangi hui cheez lautani padti hain" dialogue, Gosh ! I have some connection with this dialogue !! :D ( I have used it in real life too... with total intensity :D )

After the nerve-wrecking wait, which included Butterflies in my stomach, loss of appetite and occasional Shivers the host announced he'll be here, so lets begin the countdown !

And then there he was ! Standing Tall, Fair and extremely Handsome ! I honestly went blank, so much so that I wasn't even listening to what he was saying ! Like I tweeted I really am not the types to scream and go crazy in an over the top fashion, I was just so amazingly awestruck and moreover genuinely overwhelmed that I was just happy looking at him ! Oh and by the way my phone battery died so I couldn't even take more pictures, but then I was way too happy in being lost looking at him to care about my phone battery :P

He was exactly the way he comes across in his media & fan interactions I have seen before, very polite, humble ( Yes using this word again, because humility is so rare these days ! ), very well-mannered,entertaining and totally involved. You could see his genuineness in his eyes ! And I couldn't take my eyes off his eyes ! <3

Sometimes when you have hopes from someone you admire from a distance, they can totally go crashing when you get a reality check & I am so glad Sidharth lives up-to everything I and a lot of fans think & like about him ! Oh and do I need to mention how mesmerizing his personality is ? I felt shorter than I was when I saw him !!

At the same time I was extremely proud to see how crazy the crowd was for him ! The Tiawan Excellence person even said he was the most popular brand ambassador they ever had !

Even though I was pushed around and for a moment I thought I'd die of suffocation, 

It was a day to cherish, a day I will always remember and smile back to !

Yes I wish I could meet him, talk to him, tell him I have his shoes :P however I am way too thankful & grateful to have had an opportunity to see him ! 

Always have high hopes but do not have expectations :)
