90% Truth ... 10% Lies ...

"Peter, With Great Power Comes Great Responsibility. Never forget that." I wanted to start this week's blog with that Movie Line because I somehow relate to that. Every week I get more and more people waiting to read My blog and it is My duty to give them a good read every Sunday. Yes, I know I am late, again and for that I truly apologize. Well, you know Me, I always have a reason. But I will make it a point to write My next entry on time next time. I am right now under the weather. I have a soar throat and a running nose but since yesterday, I am feeling better today and that is why I think I have the strength to get up from My bed and write this week's blog. Yes, the Awards Function was amazing! Infact, more than I thought it could be! I interacted with some of the biggest names in the industry and I also got the chance to make some wonderful friends! So My Shout-Out Feature this week goes to all My New Friends! Thank you for becoming a part of My Life. :-)

There was a time when I was addicted to My Blackberry and whenever I saw a person {especially girls} carry a BB, I use to make it a point to exchange BB Pins. Well, now, even though I have a BB I am no longer an addict of the BB Pin. Now, I ask everyone for their email addresses so that I can send My Blog Entries every week! As they say, times change and people change along with them. But I guess more than changing I am evolving. Knowing what really matters to Me and each day I become a better person. Well, I hope so. To be honest, writing these Blogs just doesn't give My view point to the world, it some how also gives Me the strength to be Honest about Myself to the world and in a way, even to Myself. So here goes ...

As I just mentioned above, about being Honest. Well, yes, I am becoming honest with Myself and with you guys but am I, really? I mean do I have the courage to be absolutely black and white with the world?To tell them every single thing about Myself? I guess that is a Big NO-NO! I mean, come on, you don't expect Me to tell Me everything now, do you? Like for example what I did last night? Or with whom I was last night? Or am I in love or not? Or you know, what color underwear I am wearing? Some of you must think, "Hell Yeah! We will really like that!" But the truth is that no one can 100% truthful. Even if we try. I know I don't. And there are many reasons to that. Sometimes it is fear. Fear that you may sound weak and small. Sometimes it is insecurity. Insecurity that if I tell her who I truly am, she may not like Me. Or sometimes it is just the fact that you wanna show the other person that you are the most amazing human being on the planet! Some of My readers are also My friends and who know Me very closely and whenever they read My entries they message Me that I am a hypocrite and a Liar. That what I show the world is only a farce. Well, those things are true. But so are the things that I write here.

Don't get Me wrong, I am not here to justify Myself. I have done bad things too. I have cheated. I have lied and I have hurt many people, people who cared for Me. Intentionally or unintentionally. Today, when I think of all the things that I have done, I don't feel bad. Not because I have no emotions. It is because all those things that I am a better person today. My mistakes have made Me come closer to My Self-Truths. That if I lied once and hurt someone, then I shouldn't do it again and that can only happen if I have the courage to be a little more truthful than last time. As they say, 'Honesty is the best policy.' Now, little by little, step by step, I have come this close to My Truths. Yes, I do lie but in comparison to the truth it is only a mere 10% of it.

So yes, whenever you read my blogs again in the future, you will know that what I am writing is only the 90% truth, not the whole truth because write right now I only have 90% of the courage to be honest with you guys. There are still somethings that I fear. There are still somethings that hold Me back. But hey, the 90% truth is better than 50% truth, right? Every week, I try to convey a message to all of you. This week, all I am asking is try to be truthful. To anyone you meet, no matter what relation that person will be having with you, 'cause as they say, 'The truth shall set you free.' :-) And try to be as truthful as you can be. Free will was given us by god for a reason so I can't promise you that everyone who hears your truth will love you and hug you and accept you. They may even despise you or even hate you for it. But in time, I promise you this, they will respect you because out of all the people out there, you were among the few who had the courage to be truthful to them. Even if it was the 90% truth. :-)

This is Me, Mahaakshay Chakraborty and this is My Story.

I Am An Earth Citizen ...

Every week it is the same questions for Me. What will I write? What should I write and how should I write it? When I started writing Blogs, I never knew that it would be such a grueling task. But as Spiderman says, "With Great Power, Comes Great Responsibility." Yes, it is challenging but in the same time, it is also an amazing thing to do. You know, for the world to get a glimpse of your life and how I see the world. I get Love and Hate Mails from people. And I like both of them. The ones who love reading My Blogs always message Me and ask Me when is My next Blog coming and that makes Me feel very nice while the haters insult Me and ban Me from sending My Blogs to them. That is good to because I know I am getting to them. And that is good enough for Me. :-)

I am sorry for the delay in My Blog Entry this week. I have really been caught up. I have My Dance Rehearsals for TUKKAA FITT. We will be Shooting the Songs very soon for the Film and I wanna do My best in them. Secondly, I have started My Diction Classes now as I have to still improve My Hindi and make it better before My Dubbing starts. And thirdly, I am back to My MMA Training now. So I am completely caught up throughout the day. I think even next week, I will have a late entry as I am going for the Zee Cine Awards. :-)

I have always been a huge Fan of Space and the Universe and the Exploration and the Studies of Man's Final Frontier. Since I was a kid, I always thought I would go to NASA and become an Astronomer and discover new planets and even maybe be the guy who finds life out there. Even today, whenever I get time, I watch dvds and read about the Universe to keep Myself updated. I also have a Mini-Telescope at Home and whenever I go to ooty, I make sure to gaze at the stars from time to time. Speaking of which, as I had mentioned in My last blog that I had gone to ooty with My family and Me, My bros, sis and cousin Bali were just sitting and talking about the Current Affairs of the World and how things were different when we were kids and will the world really end this year? And while talking, My Cousin said a very beautiful thing. He said, "I think the world won't end this year but something great would happen and maybe it would be that we would be in contact with Aliens! And the moment that happens, we would know that we are not alone and we would have Space Neighbors and from then on, we all would be just 'Earth Citizens'!" I smiled at him and said that was something very beautiful that he said! Earth Citizen. Doesn't that ring a Good Bell in the Year? No Caste, No Creed, No Religion. Just an Earth Citizen. :-)

Just imagine a world ... imagine a world where we all are the same. There is no difference between you and Me. There are no borders. There are no religions. There are no wars, no fights, no struggles. Just people living in harmony. I know some of you must be thinking that I have gone nuts. But just for one moment, imagine that world! I do and trust Me, all it makes Me do is smile. Smile with pure happiness. Go back into history and see all the great men in the world. All wanted the same thing. That all should be ruled by One and in the end, all shall be equal. Yes, I do agree that their methods may not have been the nicest but I some how do agree that their intentions were the same. One Ruler. One World. One People.

They say that in the midst of a billion thoughts, all it takes is the will of one man. But what if 7 billion people at once think the same thought? That in the end, why do we fight? Why do kill each other for a square acre of land? That why do we say our god is better than the others? Why do we show off our weapons and tell the rest of the world that I am mightier than you? When in the end, we all will bleed the same color? That, we all breathe the same oxygen, have the same food which comes from the same soil. That in the end, we only have one planet. That in the end, all we will have, will be each other ...

To be honest, I don't know what will happen on the 21st of december this year and I also don't know when Aliens will come and visit us. But what I do know is that I am not a Hindu or a Bengali or a Sikh or an Indian. I am an Earth Citizen. I belong to this Earth. and I thank Mother Earth everyday for handling Me and My Weight on Her. And that before I die, I wanna give her back all the love she has given Me. I don't know, maybe writing this Blog can be that 1st Step. That if one man thinks of Unity today, tomorrow two will and so on and on. Before I sign off I just wanna say that I understand that we all have our own problems, our own battles, our enemies and our Wars. But this question I ask you, who do you wanna be? An Individual who lives with the Power of Hating the other person because of their God, land or Country or do you wanna be that someone who can proudly say that I am An Earth Citizen ...

Just A Wada Pav Would Do ...

Hello bloggers. How was your 1st Week in 2012? Mine was great. I am right now at The Monarch Safari Park. Trust Me, if there is a heaven, then it is this place. You guys should really try to come and visit this place. Of course, that is the business man in Me talking. But seriously, think about it and for more information, you can go to www.mithunhotels.com and see the pics also. It is always fun to write these blogs and especially when you have great music to listen too! This week's Shout-Out Feature goes to My Friend and an excellent DJ, Tom Brandon. Bro, thanks for the Music! :-)

Before I go ahead with the Blog, I have to Review a comment sent to Me by one of My Readers. The reader said that I am very honest in My Blogs and that I am trying to earn sympathy from the readers and I shouldn't do that because people look up to Me and I have to project this 'Super' side of Mine to motivate people. Well, for the record, I think Motivation comes from within. We have it or we don't. And secondly, I am not trying to gain any sympathy because I know that sympathy won't get Me any where. Only My Iron-Will Determination to Succeed will. And since it is called www.mahaakshay.blogspot.com I think I have the freedom to write whatever the hell I want as it is My website. :-) And now Blog Time. I like saying that. 'Blog Time' It is like some kind of an Announcement for a Gladiator in the Arena! :-)

For all you international readers out there, Wada Pav is one of the most tastiest and cheapest Indian Eatables available today. And it has been available since the Dawn of Time and Wada Pav has been called the Poor Man's Burger. But today, I am not gonna tell you how it is made or how it originated. I am just gonna target on the Simplicity of it. Speaking of simplicity, here we go. No one wants to be Simple. No one likes simple. Everyone wants to be extra-ordinary. Everyone wants to be special. Wanted, Loved and Cared. And yes, I am very much one of them. But in the quest of finding those Special Things, I have realized many other things. That sometimes, the greatest things in Life are the Simple things. :-)

As I had mentioned in My last blog, I was gonna go and attend My Friend, Somesh's Wedding. Well, I couldn't go for his wedding but I surely went for His Sangeet. Believe it or not, it is the 2nd Sangeet I have gone to in My entire life! Yes, it is true. And going to His Sangeet was part of one of My Resolutions as well. So I was at His Sangeet and I saw Somesh and Neha extremely happy and as all sangeets, there was a lot Naach-Gaana involved and everyone was Happy. Of course, no one knew that I had a surprise Dance involved. I went to the Dance Floor and did what I had to do. But what came after that was what made Me Smile. I saw Somesh and Neha Hug each other. I saw the Glitter in their Eyes, the love for one another. The Rings that they wore was their symbol of Love and commitment and when I saw them together, I just Smiled. Smiled with all of my Teeth out because seeing them happy made Me happy. Their happiness gave Me happiness. And I said, "Wow! Touchwood to these two." I usually don't click pics of others if I am not in it. {Yes, I have that problem.} But I think I clicked nearly 4-5 pics of those two because I was happy. And that made Me think a lot. Especially when I was coming Home. That God or Fate or Energy, whatever you wanna call it gives us Happiness everyday. Whether it is in something small or in something big, happiness does comes to us. All we have to do is find it, feel it and embrace it and then, all of you would smile like Me too. We fight these Wars over Land, Country and Religion when all we need to do is realize that if we have the capacity to Hate, we also have the Capacity to love. That if we have the capacity to Fight, we also have the Capacity to Enjoy. That if we can Cry, we can also be Happy. :-)

I am not telling you not to be ambitious. Hell! I am very ambitious and it is very good to be ambitious. All I ask is to cherish the Simple Things in Life as well. You know, the things we usually take for granted. Sometimes, a bicycle ride with your best friend will give you more happiness than a ride in that brand New Sports Car you bought. Sometimes, reading an Interesting Novel all by yourself is much more fun than going on tv and starting a Debate. That sometimes, a Wada Pav is more tastier than a Lavish Meal in that 5-Star Hotel. Until next time My readers, I hope you find your happiness. And trust Me, it is sometimes the Simple Things that surprise you more than the extra-ordinary things. I gotto go for My Staff Meeting now. You take care and remember, always have the Faith. :-)

This is Me, Mahaakshay Chakraborty and this is My Story.

Hello 2012 ...

First things First.  This is Me wishing you all a very Happy 2012! May you get all the happiness this year and may all your dreams come true! Wow! It is a New Year already! Time really flies very very fast. As they say, "Time Waits For None." But before I go ahead with 2012, I think I must say Thank You to 2011 with all My heart! 2011 was the greatest year so far for Me! I finally got accepted in the industry. My Movie became a Hit and got tremendous Love and Appreciation from all of you! It was also the year when I started writing My Blogs! Well, I need to thank each and every one who was a part of My Life during 2011! Thank you so very much for being there for Me and I am Sorry to everyone whom I may have hurt, intentionally or unintentionally. 2011 was a Maturing Year for Me and I promise that in 2012 I will be a better person. :-)

Whenever we enter the New Year we do one thing. Oh yes, that is right, RESOLUTIONS! We all prepare ourselves with Full Force and Determination that we are going to stick to our Resolutions and make ourselves much better than the year before. And yes, we all have a great start too. Whether it is Loosing Weight, or turning into a Vegetarian or even Swearing Less, for the first 3-4 days we are on track and we know that we are going to do this. But somehow, we all loose track as the days goes by and in time we start giving excuses to ourselves that 'Life' has caught on with us and we don't have time to do what we promised ourselves to do. And thus, all our Resolutions go down the sink. The reason I am saying this is because I have been there plenty of times and I know the feeling. But I know, I just know that in 2012, I am going to stick to My Resolutions. The question is, will you? :-)

You guys must be thinking, 'Ya,ya! Blabber all you want. Your actions will prove your focus.' I am completely on with you guys on this. That is why I am going to give you a Sneak Peek on My Resolutions as well. The FIRST will surely be that I have Promised Myself, that I am going to do things Out Of My Norm. Ya. I am going to go out of My Comfort Zone and venture into Places where I never dared to go. The SECOND will be that I am going to start to Socialize. As you must have known that I am not that much of an Out Goer and like to be Home. But this year, I am going to make sure that I change all of that. THIRD, I am going to talk more and be more communicative on the Phone. I am more of a SMS person but from now on, even if it is for 5mins, I will pick up the Phone and Call and Talk. The FOURTH would be that I am gong to cut down on My Meat Intake. I know for a MMA Athlete like Me, Protein is very important and Chicken and Eggs are the best sources for that. But I just read that being a Vegetarian is far more better for Health and also for the Environment. The FIFTH and the most important thing would be that I am going to give more Importance to My Priorities than I gave them Last Year. Priorities will always be Priorities and they came first, always! :-)

I know. I know. Even after reading the above you may think, things are easier said than done. Again, I agree with you on that. It is very difficult to change who we are. But you see, I am not changing myself, I am just Evolving Myself. I am trying to become a Better Person and I know, that, that power only I have. So what better way to become that guy then on the 1st Day of The Year! And yes, I am not just gonna dive in all of the above all at once with full force. I have decided that I am going to do everything step by step. As they say, 'Slow And Steady Wins The Race.' As long as I know that I am giving My 100% to My efforts, I know I am on the right track. Life is filled with Surprises and that is what makes life so interesting and I also know that whatever we go through is a Plan of Fate somehow. You never know, with these sudden changes in Me and My Life, I may bump into a Producer in a Party or maybe someone will Read My Article about being a Vegetarian or maybe I may even become a Youtube Sensation all around the world because Someone Recorded Me giving a Small Dance Performance at a Party! :-)

To be honest, I don't know what is in stored for Me for this Year but I do know that My Actions will Reap Results. I do hope that All Of You stick to Your Resolutions as well. You never know how Life will surprise you. I once again wish all of you a very Happy 2012! I gotto go now. My Buddy, Somesh Kamra is getting married to the Woman of His Dreams, Neha this week. I gotto go and get ready for that. until next time, Keep On The Giving and Have Faith. :-)

This is Me, Mahaakshay Chakraborty and this is My Story.

The Things That I Have To Do ...

"Doc, is this gonna hurt? You will feel a burning sensation. It will sting. And yes, I am increasing the intensity. Why doc? Well, Mahaakshay because I know you can take it. Yes doc. So, shall we? Yes doc. Let's begin the procedure."

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to My World. You know, in My life, there is one word which is very commonly used by Me. And that is Irony. No matter how hard I try and fight for acceptance, people never see the process, they never see the struggle, they never see the fights. They only see the Cars, the Clothes, the Watches and they say, "Look at him, he doesn't have to try hard, he has got it easy." But today, I will give you a glimpse of My World. Trust Me, it is not easy being Me. I am on the job 24/7. There is no OFF day for Me. I follow a strict diet everyday which consist of only plain food. Whether it's Salads or Soups or sometimes just juices. I have a tendency to put on Weight very fast so I have to be super cautious of what I eat. And I have a major water retention problem which terrifies Me because the Water gets stored in the Face and in our industry, our Face is what sells. So I have to wake up three hours before the world wakes up and go for my morning Run and 1,000 jumps with the Skipping Rope everyday when I am Shooting. There are No Cheat Days for Me no matter how much I get tempted by the food. For a guy like Me, even a simple Dal, Bhaji is tempting. But because I am a junior here, all the Seniors eat all the sweets and the junk food in front of Me and no one has the guts to tell them anything but these same seniors taunt Me and make fun of Me even if I look at Food. In that fear, I don't even eat food with them. Whenever I am Shooting I make sure I always eat My Food in the Vanity Van even though I know that I shouldn't be affected by their talks. But what can I do, I am insecure. I am scared all the time because after so many years I have earned My right to be here. And I can't see Myself without it. You have no idea what all I have sacrificed to be here. I have sacrificed friends, people who cared for Me, people who loved Me and wanted to be with Me. I pushed everyone away from Me and today, I know I am empty from inside because I feel this emptiness. There are times when I feel "feelings" but they only last for a moment and then, they disappear. I let go of everything and everyone because I knew that no matter how much it gave Me pain, I had to do those things ...

In today's world, where six packs abs are considered to be "Talents" there is no place for imperfects. So for Me, it is a battle 24/7. The reason I do MMA is because it is the toughest sport out there and it takes out the best in Me and that helps Me relax.But along side it, I make sure that I do a lot of Running, skipping, sports like squash and also Swimming. I have more than 6 calendars at Home and on every calendar I have different markings. One is for My Weight, one is for My measurements, one is for keeping track on My Diet Days and so on … But all this is what I do. But trust Me, no matter how much I do, there is always that little extra which is necessary too. And that is where I need help and thanks to My Friend Anu, I found that help in the form of Dr.Rashmi. She is one of the best out there and today, whatever I am, how ever I look, it is because of the Treatments she gives Me. Mostly every celebrity and Model goes to her but I am not here to tell you about them. I am here to tell you that I am not afraid to say that I take help in looking like an Actor. She herself is a very low profile person and she never asks for any attention but I think she deserves her due. I remember, it was the year 2005 and I met her for the 1st time and she said that I am still too young for any kind of treatment. So she sent Me back and told Me to come to her after a year and 10kgs lesser. I did just that and from that day, when she started Treating Me, to this day, I go to her once every month for My Treatments. She helps Me looks better whether it is through injections, facials or skin tightening treatments. She always tells Me that, "Mahaakshay, are you sure you wanna do this?" And I say, "This is who I am doc and I have no other choice. This is what is required from Me. This is what i have to do." I have realized that after a point of time, Pain becomes the only thing that keeps you alive. Trust Me, I have tried, I have tried so hard to fit it. To be "normal" but I guess, "normal" is not cut out for Me. I guess the things I do has made Me something I wasn't expecting to become. People and their life styles don't interest Me anymore. Only when I am on a Movie Set, only when I do MMA do I feel I belong somewhere. Do I feel alive. I guess this is who I am now ...

So you see My friends, this is what I call irony because I Work for Food and Food is something that I can't afford to eat. Don't take Me wrong. I am not complaining. I love this business and because I wanna stay here and I want to succeed, I will do anything and everything to be here. I don't mind the starvation or the injections or the taunts or the humiliation. As I said in My last blog, I wanna die with My Make-Up On. Those Words still stand tall for Me. I am in a very happy place in My Life. They year 2011 has been very productive for Me. This was the year when I got my own Identity. People now call Me Haunted Film Ka Hero. That is Bliss for Me. Hearing Daughtry's New Album Break The Spell right now is Bliss for Me. The reason I told you all the above is I want you to know that It is not always all flowers for Me. With every flower, I get a few thorns too. Through My Blogs, I just wish that one day the world sees Me for the person that I am and what all I have to do to become the Man the World wants Me to be. Yes, I am an Actor and yes, I consider Myself as a Public Servant. I am at the disposal of the Audience, of the Fans and I owe it to them to be the best version of Myself, every single day. I am not telling you to have sympathy on Me. I am not even telling you to care. All I am asking from you is to Understand. Understand that I am not a bad human being. I am just misunderstood. That sometimes, there is more to Me than the Clothes I wear or the car I drive. That I am Human too ...

This is Me, Mahaakshay Chakraborty and this is My Story.

I Want To Die With My Make-Up On ...

Hello everyone. First things first. I am a very punctual guy and I know how important deadlines are. I always write My Blogs on a Sunday but I couldn't last night as I was coming back Home from Hyderabad. Yes, I have wrapped up the Shooting of ENEMMY. We only have a few days left here in Mumbai. TUKKAA FITT and ENEMMY both have been amazing experiences for Me and I hope you all feel the same way too. The weekly round-up would be that the Action Scenes in ENEMMY took a serious tool on Me as we were Shooting for more than 16 hours a day. But thanks to everyone's dedication, we pulled it off. And the "Mahaakshay's Eye Catch News" is that North Korea's KCNA refers to Kim Jong Un the son of Kim Jong II as the Great Successor to the Revolutionary Cause. Hmm, wonder what I would had done with power like that! And My "Shout-Out" this week goes to My TUKKAA FITT Co-Stars, Vaishali Desai and Hitan Paintal as they both celebrated their Birthdays this week. My Love and respect to both you. You guys are gems and you deserve all the happiness in the world! :-) And now, Blog Time! :-)

Life. It is beautiful, isn't it? It is also weird and strange. But it is truly amazing! Can you believe a fat kid with huge glasses on would one day be an Actor in the Indian Film Industry? I was suppose to go to NASA. I wanted to be an Astronomer and I was getting ready for My Exams for the Internship in NASA. But life had other plans for Me. I remember I was doing My course at the New York Film Academy and we were shooting in an abandoned prison. One of the directors used Me as an extra. I was one of the crazy inmates and the camera just passes through Me. It was a One Take OK Shot. But what happened to Me after that was the Bliss I felt. After that moment I just knew, I knew from the bottom of my heart that this is where I belong! That day was in July in the year 2003 and nothing has changed ever since. I still feel that bliss whenever I put My Make-up On. Whenever I hear Action and Cut. This Place. This Industry. This is Heaven for Me. This is where I belong. This is where I wanna die. Take my last breath with My Make-up on. I know when that happens, I will surely die with a Smile. I will die in peace. There are many few who are blessed to do what they Love, every single day. And I know I am one of them. :-)

I remember it was 2006. Amitabh Uncle wasn't well. So, Me and Dad had gone to see him. And that same point My Film's Launch was happening. I met Uncle and He blessed Me and it was truly an Honor to be in his presence. The moment we where about to leave, Abhishek Bhai met us and greeted us with love. After a while he took Me aside and told Me something I will never forget. He said, "Mahaakshay, welcome to the Industry. I am glad you are a part of it. And take it from Me, there will be many people who will try to break you down. You don't let them. You Fight back and never stop Fighting! Give this Industry all that you have and take whatever it gives you. The good and the bad because only then will you become the man that you want to be!" He was so true and today, whenever I am low, I remember his words and they charge Me up because those words remind Me who I am and what I am fighting for! I know that in My last blog I was pissed and angry and hurt. Well, what can I say, I'm only Human. But you see, that is what makes Life so interesting. One day, I am angry and the next day I am dancing like crazy! I guess this is all a plan of Fate showing us the way. Making us realize what is truly worth fighting for. Take it from Me, it is not easy being Me for this Industry is a place where everyone is out to eat each other and take the other person's spotlight. My Brother, Rimoh told Me a very beautiful thing recently. He said, "Bhai, In Our Industry, even on the Sets of a Movie, everyone hates each other or dislike each other. But no matter how much they hate or despise each other, they come together because of their love for the Movies!". And yes, He is so true! I have seen everything and even till today I see all that. I see how 'Stars' or 'Seniors' get more attention. I have been treated like a nobody even when I was worth of a Somebody. I have seen how the press gives the other guy more attention than I am getting. I see people taking autographs and photographs of others when I am standing with them. And trust Me, it does hurt. It hurts like hell! But in the end, after all those tears dry up, I am still fighting. I am still smiling.Do you know why? It's because in the end, all I have is Love for My Work for this is the only place I know, where all My dreams will come true!

As Tom Hanks said in the Movie Forrest Gump. "Life is like a box of chocolates. You don't know which you will get when." That is how I see My Life. That is how I see My Work Place. It is filled with everything. The Pros and the cons. But when you know, without a shadow of a doubt that this is what you want, you take all the hits. You just suck it up, accept the pain, become stronger and stand up for round:2! As a human being. As a boy who is becoming a man. As the guy who has to carry on the Chakraborty legacy, I have many responsibilities, expectations and pressures. Sometimes, it is people talking behind My back or people making fun of Me or some washed up critic writing shit about Me or even maybe some girl who rejected My offer to take her out on a date! I go through various emotions everyday but trust Me, the moment I am called for My Shot. When I am in front of the camera. When the lights are on Me, I forget the outside world and something in Me switches ON! I feel alive and then suddenly, everything in the world makes sense. I start smiling and blushing and I only feel happiness! 

So right now, as I am writing this Blog, I know that all My battles and hardships are worth it because in the end this is where I want to be! In the end, I want to die with My Make-Up On. There is no other place I wanna be. As My readers, I really wish and pray that you find what you are looking for. That you also find your bliss like I have found Mine. Some dreams are worth Fighting for and remember, Dreams are only beautiful when you wake up and make them come true. I am doing that as we speak. I hope you do too. 

This is Me, Mahaakshay Chakraborty and this is My Story.

Your Questions, My Answers ...

Hello everyone. I know I am very very late with My Blog entry. I usually write every sunday but this sunday, My Family came from Mumbai to spend time with Me here in Hyderabad so I thought I should be with them. Yesterday, to be honest, I was just not in the mood and today for many reasons more than one, I was just too damn pissed to take out time and write. I, in fact, wrote 2 pages in My Diary and tried to vent out My Hate. I don't know whether it worked or not. I usually do weekly round-ups and shout-out features but this week, I am not in the right frame of mind to do anything. In fact, I am gong to use this Blog Space to vent out some more of My Anger and try to Answer some questions that are regularly thrown at Me even without My consent. So this time, It Is Your Questions And My Answers ...

Q1. Why are you so Serious all the time and take everything on Face Value?
Ans1. Well, it is not easy being Me. Ask Me what all I go through everyday. The expectations. The taunts. The insults. The opinions. Just because I keep quiet doesn't mean you can say whatever you want. But you see, people don't understand that. They think that just because they have more experience than you and just because they 'care' for you, they have the right to say whatever they want! Like for example, I changed My twitter pic a few days ago. It was completely My Choice. I did it because I wanted too. Not because I was fetching compliments. But one follower tweets Me, you know, I liked the last one better! I mean, hello! When did I ask you for your opinion? I wear a shirt and people say, this doesn't suit you. I make a certain hair style and people say, you still don't have the Star Look. I do this, I get taunted. I do that and I get scoldings. So you see, I have to be serious all the time. I have no time to chill and take it easy because I know that at any given moment, some 'experienced' person is going to threw their view point on Me.

Q2. Why don't you have any friends?
Ans2. Oh trust Me, I have asked this question to Myself so many times! But I just don't get it. People at the start are so nice and are so caring. But as time goes by, they show their true colors and then, they don't call, they don't message and they don't even care whether you are dead or alive. I have tried man! I have really tried to be a good friend. Without fail, I will message My so-called friends everyday wishing them good morning and how was your day. But you see, they are very busy people. In fact, they are the only ones who are busy and they are too caught up in their work. And if luck is on My side and they do pick up My call, they are half the time doing some other activity or watching Master Chef Australia! So you see, there is a reason I don't have friends. They have let Me down more than a billion times.

Q3. Why can't you let go?
Ans3. I think I answered that in My last blog. I have a lot of Hate in Me and trust Me, even today, every day I go out there and fight a new war with the world because the world will never quit throwing their opinions at Me. I know one reader who said, you have to love and let go, only then will you find peace. Uhm, excuse Me! Are you in My shoes? I don't think so! Did I ask for your advice? No! I didn't! Let Me be the way I am. I am alone and I love being alone! Why can't that be easy to understand? !?!

Q4. Why don't you like Long Drives and typing LOL and HHMMM and dislike the words Yaar and Dude?
Ans4. The reason I don't like long drives because I don't understand the point! I mean, come on! You are making Me waste so much of fuel! And if I am driving, how the hell will I talk to you? And yes, I don't get it that after every sentence, why in the bloody hell, do people type LOL! I mean, what is so damn funny that you have to Laugh Out Loud? And yes, I really, from the bottom of My heart hate the word HHmmm. I mean, what in the bloody hell does it freakin' mean? I still don't have the answer to that! There is something called English you know. And when it comes to Yaar and Dude, trust Me, I am not a Yaar and neither a Dude. I am just too happy being called by My Name. And guess what I have 2 Names to choose from! One is Mimoh and the other is Mahaakshay!

Q5. Why are you so moody and have such a huge ego?
Ans5. Well, you see, I am still very much human. There are days when I am happy and there are days when I am sad. I can't live according to the will of others. Though with the way things are, I now have no choice but to listen to others and let go off the things that make Me happy because I am only 27 and I have no knowledge of life what so ever!  I do MMA twice a day with 100% dedication and all I get is that you should cut down on your Training because now you are looking like a wrestler and you see, that is not the trend nowadays. You see Mimoh, there will be plenty of time to do everything else. Now, you should just concentrate on your career! Hello! What the hell am I been doing for the last 3 years? And I have an ego? Hello! Correction! The last time I called, you didn't pick up because you were too busy replying to Tweets or writing a new one!

If I continue, there will be a billion more questions from where this is all coming from. But I think I have bored you guys enough. Trust Me, I am not looking for self-sympathy or any attention. I publish My Blogs on the web. I send it to over 200 people via email and I don't know or even care whether they open it and read it or not. All I know is that sometimes, these so-called expectations and opinions and pressures get to Me and believe it or not, I am Human too and all I want is to live My life My way with My rules. Good or bad, I wanna learn and I wanna live. As The Hulk keeps on saying, "All I Want Is To Be Left Alone". That is exactly what I want! I wanna wake up everyday, go to Work and then coe back Home. That is all I want without the world telling Me what to do! I know tomorrow is a new day with new opportunities and a new hope and trust Me, no matter how hard things get, I will never stop the giving because only through the giving will I be given. I am not telling you to care. All I ask is for you to understand.

To Let Go Or Not To let Go ...

Hello everyone. Sorry for the late entry. I have been Shooting for ENEMMY everyday, for more than 12 hours a day. But I'm loving every bit of it! It is a high-octane ride to work with KK! As My brother says, he is an Actor, not a Product like so many out there. I hope I remain an Actor too! Yesterday, Dev Saab expired. The world will never be the same. He is truly a Legend and will always be! May His Soul Rest In Peace. Last week, I heard that Sharad Pawar got slapped. Well, that was in a way a good thing, right? I mean, I'm hearing people praising that fact and also diminishing it. And as you know that I do a weekly round-up every week, From this week onwards, there will also be a 'Shout-Out' feature. I start the Shout-Out feature by giving a Shout-Out to My co-star and and dear friend Tia Bajpai. Her film LANKA will be releasing soon and I wish her the very best for it! She deserves all the success in the world and we both shared the same Dreams during Haunted and I love her for that! Now, Blog Time …

To Let Go Or Not To Let Go. Every week when I post a Blog I get comments from people with different view points. One of the reader's said that I am a very Boring Person. The other one said that you are too locked up. You are not enjoying life, not living the moment. You just have to let go man! Well, I am open to all view points as My Blog is My view point. I have gone through Blogs of many different people as well and some are hilarious filled with humor while others are on day to day lives. My Blogs are My expressions. A part of Me that I can express with the world. A part of Me which I hope, one day, the world will understand. So no matter how many times I hear people calling Me boring and that I am too locked up, I can never let go of what I have been through. Of the things I have seen. Of the feelings I have left because everyday when I wake up, the past reminds Me how I got here. Sometimes, it gives me strength to fight back. Sometimes, it breaks Me down with insecurity. People say, never live in your past. It has gone and it is never coming back. But now I ask you a question. Can you let go? Can you really let go of all that Pain and Insults and people laughing at you? Can you let go of all those tears that rolled down your cheeks when you realized that there is no one who understands you and that you are all alone. Can you let go of all the things people said and when they made fun of you and your family? I ask you, can you really let go? Well, if you ask Me, I can't and I will NEVER let go.

This is not Vengeance. This is just Anger. And sometimes, even Anger becomes Will. A Will that becomes an unstoppable force of nature. A will that can move mountains. A will that makes you wake up 05:00am in the morning and be in the Gym by 06:00am. A Will that tells you to Starve so that you can look leaner for your next Film. A Will that makes you sacrifice all your friends and the girl you liked because you know that you are on a Mission. A Mission to prove to all those people that you are much better than they thought you were. I have heard people telling Me that the Greatest Battle we fight is with ourselves and we should prove to ourselves that we are the best. To be honest, I take all that as hypocritical bullshit because all we want to do is show the other person that we are better than him or her. Not to ourselves! I am not telling you to always be angry and have a frown on your face and be rude to people and yell at them. I am telling you to live your lives to the fullest and find happiness wherever you go. All I am saying is that never let go because sometimes that Pain reminds you who truly are. As the words from the Film, Colombiana were, "Never Forget Where You Are Coming From." I urge you to never forget because sometimes we do get overwhelmed by our accomplishments and the love and adoration people give us. We tend to forget our past. We somehow loose the Hunger. Let go of that Anger. That Anger that brought you where you are right now. 

You see, sometimes Anger is a good thing. It has worked for Me and still does. One bad remark from a person pisses Me off and makes Me run and extra kilometer at 12kmph! And in the same way, when someone compliments Me, the images from my past come flashing in front of My eyes and remind Me where I am coming from, which also makes Me run that extra kilometer! I have many things to achieve and I know I won't stop until I make all my dreams come true. Yes, I know that I am boring and that I am too locked up. To be honest, I don't care because I know that in order to reach where I have to, I have to have Anger, I have to have the Will to use My Anger as My tool of Strength and make it My weapon. Maybe someday when I reach where I want too I will take a deep breath and exhale and let go of all this anger inside of Me. But until then, I have many people to defeat. I have many things to prove and I have many things to over come. Love didn't work for Me. I guess Anger will.

We All Have Our Own Battles To Fight ...

Hey guys. I hope you don't mind Me greeting you with 'hey guys' every time. To be honest, I don't know what other way to start the Blog. Thank you for all the love and appreciation you all give Me every week. It really means a lot to Me. Writing these Blogs every week has truly become a part of My life and I will try My best to do the best I can, every week. I am right now in Hyderabad and we are Shooting Enemmy here. Before My PR Avantika Sinha from Soapbox messages Me and shouts at Me, "Don't tell much about the Film, let Me use it as a PR Activity!", I will just say that I am having a great

time being on the Sets with Superstars like Suniel Shetty, Johnny Lever and My Dad. I will surely keep you posted more on Enemmy as the days go by. And since there is a lack of 3G Network here, I am not in touch with the world out there, so I have little knowledge as to what is happening out there. Hope all is well. And now, Blog Time! :-)

We All Have Our Own Battles To Fight. I have mentioned that line many a times in My previous Blogs but I guess with the circumstances those words deserve an entire blog! There are 7 billion people on this planet and no matter how different we may be from one another, we have one thing in common. Fighting. Whether it is for survival, recognition or even love, we are fighting all the time. Consciously or not, our bodies and the soul and the mind are in a constant fight with the world. Some days we loose, some days we win. But all I know that it is a never ending struggle. Whether we like or not. Let Me give you an example. As Actors we have so many things that we have to do. So many things that we have to take care of. Whether it is our Diet, our Clothes, the way we talk, eat or even sleep. We are on the job 24/7. There is no "Off Day" for us. And in the end, no matter how much we give, there is someone out there who always tells us that we are not giving enough.

One of My friends, who after reading My last blog told Me that I am not what I write in My blog. That I am giving a wrong perception to people that I am this noble, kind hearted soul who likes to preach, when I am this selfish, self-centered prick who only thinks about himself! Even though I was hurt by what My friend said, I knew that was the truth. But what My friend didn't realize that I have to do what I have to do. I go to war everyday with Myself, everyday with the circumstances I am put into, the people I have to deal with, the choices I have to make, the sacrifices that I have to do. That is something My friend and the world will never understand, just as I won't understand My friend's problems or even the world's. But I still write and spread these words because a part of Me, which is, in a way, good likes to do so. Please, do not take this blog as a self-defense or self-sympathy verdict of Mine. I am not trying to prove anything. All I am saying is that no matter how hard you try, no matter how many people you are dependent on, no one will understand your pain because they are not in your shoes. It's not like they don't care, they do, they really do and they really wanna help you and be there for you but trust Me, it doesn't help because only you are the master. Only you hold the key. As the words from Never Back Done were, "Remember, no matter how it ends, you hold the outcome." 

I am not trying to put you down or depress you. I am just trying to open your eyes to the truth. The truth, which, in fact we all know but don't wanna admit too. We, as human beings have the power to move mountains but in the same time be destroyed by the slightest ounce of weakness. I agree that man is a social animal and we all need each other. But being dependent on others won't make your problems go away. You only have that power. You, you and only You. The day you realize that you are alone that is the day when everyone will come to you automatically. Accepting and embracing are two very different things. So I tell you to embrace this truth! Embrace it and make it your own and see how strong you become! As I said earlier, we win some, we loose some. Not everyday is a smooth ride. But knowing that you alone are dealing with whatever is coming your way will make you more powerful than even The Hulk!  I am not saying it is easy. Trust Me, there are times when I have broken down too. When I have sat alone in My Room and cried for hours. But this is the only way you will become the person you were born to be! 

Even right now, as I am writing this blog, I have a million thoughts going through My head. Some which give Me joy, some which give Me pain. But I know that as long as I accept whatever comes My way, that I keep on doing what I am doing with 100% dedication, everything is going to be alright 'cause when you are alone, all you have is your hope, faith and yourself! So don't give up My friends. Don't feel bad that you have to fight your fight all by yourself. Don't be afraid to be left out alone because sometimes only when you are alone, do you find yourself.

We Are Who We Are ...

Hello again My Friends. Hope all is well with you guys. Me? I am doing great Myself too. ENEMMY is about to begin. So I am pretty excited! Will surely keep you posted on that. We just finished Shooting the Climax of TUKKAA FITT and now, we only have some Scenes and 2 Songs remaining. Can't believe we finished it so fast! The Climax was a lot of fun as the entire Star Cast was there in it! It was a pleasure working and interacting with Mukesh Tiwari! That man is so educated! And I had a gala time Shooting with Mukul Dev too. You have to see his Mimicry. He is too good in that! And also, the surprise packet was Vaisahli Desai! You will get to see her kick some villain butts too! And heard Gadafi's Son got found. Guess the wicked can't hide much now. Can they? And now, the Blog ... :-)

WE ARE WHO WE ARE. Well, you music fans must be thinking I will start writing down Kesha's Lyrics here. But no. Although I love that Song and have danced on it several times, this Blog isn't about that Song. But it is, about You, Me and US. I have done a course on Behavioral Psychology and so, I tend to absorb people a lot through default. And in our Movie Industry, you get to work with over a hundred people a day! And as I have absorbed, we humans are truly unique 'cause even though we may have many traits in common, there is always that 'something' which makes us different from the rest. :-)

I have also absorbed Myself, along the course of My entire existence and only lately have I come to the conclusion that no matter how hard I try to change, I will always be who I am. That, My origins will never change. That underneath all the rules and regulations and responsibilities and the norms of society, I will always be who I am. But the question is who am I? Who are you? Well, that My friends, is a path we have to take ourselves. No teacher, no friend or family can tell you who you really are. Except your soul or your conscious. Your inner voice, you know, the one which keeps on talking to you, the one which keeps on telling you to do the right thing, even though it must be the toughest thing to do, that is Who You Really Are! :-)

I always thought that I was mis-treated by My friends in school. That I was always the fat kid. That I always was the odd one out, that I would always be alone and because people made Me feel that way, I tried to change Myself. Whether it was My looks, My dressing style or even the way I talked. At first, it worked. It earned Me a lot of love and respect and attention. I got a lot friends and even women started giving Me attention. And I also liked it. I thought, "Hey, this really works. I was such a loser back in the day!" But as the moments passed, I started to feel more and more emptier. I started to feel unreal. I started to feel like someone else entirely. And then one day, when I saw Myself in the mirror, I couldn't recognize Myself. The man who I saw wasn't Me. But a person who had lost His true beliefs. Who had lost his morals and virtues. That is the day I realized who I truly was. And then suddenly, I became quiet.

I went back to My old self, to My true self. And as that happened, I saw all My friends disappear one by one. People started ignoring Me and they also stopped calling Me to their gatherings. This of course gave Me a lot of pain but in the same time showed Me the truth. It showed Me who My friends were and more importantly, who I truly was. Even though I felt that gap of knowing to not knowing people, underneath Me, I felt at peace. Something in Me was in harmony with Me. Something in Me was happy. :-)

Today, touchwood, I am one of the happiest guys alive! I have everything that I have asked for and each day only gets better. And this is only because I accepted who I was. I must admit, at first, it is very scary to know the truth. But the truth sets you free and then, all you have is peace. Try it. We all deserve to be true to ourselves. You can lie to all the 7 billion people in the planet but you can't lie to yourself. No matter how much you try. You may not be perfect. Hell! I know I am not perfect! There are more minuses in Me than pluses but at least I am free. At least I know who I truly am! Take this from Me, society will try to change you, will tell you, mostly all the time that you are wrong and that what you do is wrong. But society doesn't make you or break you. It is YOU who defines Yourself!

Don't be afraid to be who you are. The ones who truly love you will love you, no matter how you are. They will always be with you because they saw the Real You. Finding yourself is a tough task, I know. The Path is filled with Darkness and sometimes, you have to fight your own demons to get to salvation. But don't be afraid of the Darkness because only in the Darkness Can You See The Light. I am who I am. And every moment I am proud to Be! The question is ... Are You? :-)

This is Me, Mahaakshay Chakraborty and this is My Story. :-)

Do We Really Care?

Hi guys. Yes, this week the blog entry comes early. It is because tomorrow onwards, I start Shooting the Climax of TUKKAA FITT and I know it is going to be very grueling and will demand all of My Energy, so clearly I won't have time for anything. And I don't wanna keep you guys waiting. Plus, today I am Home Alone since Dad is in Kolkata and the Family has gone for the Movies. I figured this is the best time! Before we begin, the usual Weekly Round-Up. I shot for ENEMMY a couple of days ago. I am playing a Cop in it and the feeling of Working with My Director Ashu Trikkha was amazing! ENEMMY goes full throttle ahead very soon. I will surely keep you posted on that. I also heard that Eddie Murphy won't be hosting the Oscars. Another funny man, Billy Crystal has taken His place. Will surely wait for the Oscars next year. And LOOT faired very well in the small centers. We will be breaking even, all thanks to you guys. And guess what, all those who slammed the film and sent Me and the Film hate tweets are now agreeing with the same thing. Touch wood to that! And now, we begin ...

DO WE REALLY CARE? Well, here is why I chose those words as a topic. I am a die hard Nickelback fan and they have just released their new Album. Of course I wanted a preview of the Songs. The moment I heard their latest single, "When we stand together" I was completely moved! And when I read the lyrics and saw the video I was nearly in tears! Yes! I was because that song really moved Me! It made Me realize many things. And most importantly it made Me ask Myself the question, 'Do I really care?'

One more depending on a prayerAnd we all look awayPeople pretending everywhereIt's just another day
There's bullets flying through the airAnd they still carry onWe watch it happen over thereAnd then just turn it off
These are some of the lyrics from the song. Are they not true? Yes, I agree, they are very true. Hey, don't take Me Wrong. I am not pointing fingers here and neither playing the blame game. I, Myself, in My previous blog mentioned that I am the Selfish of the year, so I guess you must be thinking I am contradicting My own words. No, this isn't that at all. All I am saying is that after hearing that song, it hit Me. Those thoughts hit Me. And they hit Me hard. I am not telling you to go out there and shout on television or start a rally or do anything out of the ordianry. All I am asking you is to CARE. :-)
Mother Teresa once said, "I am not asking you to do extra-ordianry deeds. All I ask from you is to Care." Mother Teresa changed the world because she Cared because she knew that we, as human beings, have the ability to CARE. That no matter what we go through in Life. The responsibilities, the stress, the tensions and the things in between, we have the ability to CARE. That for just one moment, we can close our eyes and have hope that one day, we all will be united. That one day, we all will be one. We all will be brothers and sisters. That in the end, Love will Conquer Hate. That one day, we all can hold each others hands. That no matter how many wars we fight, Peace will be victorious. That in the end, we all are just Human Beings and we all Bleed the Same Color and all we have is each other. That in the End, we all have the ability to CARE. :-)
They tell us everything's alrightAnd we just go alongHow can we fall asleep at nightWhen something's clearly wrong
When we could feed a starving worldWith what we throw awayBut all we serve are empty wordsThat always taste the same
Recently, we lost Steve Jobs. One of the greatest men in history. I mourned his passing too. But one of My friend's on twitter posted a pic. On one side, it was a picture of Steve Jobs and written below was, "When One Man Dies, The Whole World Cries" And on the other side there was a picture of many children in africa, dying of starvation and below it was written, "But Millions are Dying and No One Cares." That picture made Me realize that I don't wanna be the guy who doesn't care. I wanna be the better version of Myself and for that, all I have to do is care. The reason I am telling you all to care is because to Care is the purest form of Positive Energy. A Selfless Act we all possess. Imagine the power coming from nearly 7 billion people at the same time! Wow! :-)
Before I go, I just wanna say that I am no messenger or anything else. I am just a Human being like all of you. Who bleeds the same color and who breathes the same air. But yes, today I am better than yesterday because I know I can care. I can take out one minute from My day and Care. The same way I know you will also. God made us in his image for a reason. I guess, this was one of those reasons. Love one another for in the end, love will win. And if you can't love, no problem, just CARE. :-)
This is Me, Mahaakshay Chakraborty and This is My Story. :-)

Rise. Above. Hate.

Hello everyone. How are you all? Hope all are well. Today is the last day of the Shooting Spell of TUKKAA FITT here in Goa. Speaking of which, you can follow TUKKAA FITT on twitter. This is the id @tukkaafitt and #TUKKAAFITT as a trending topic. I had a gala time over here! None of us left any stone unturned and from the looks of it, TUKKAA FITT will be a sure entertainer! Fingers crossed. I will be starting My next Film, ENEMY very soon. It will be a trending topic on twitter also very soon at #Enemy and speaking of twitter you can find Me there @mahaakshay and My journal at #mahaakshayjournal :-) And guess what guys? All thanks to you all, LOOT is doing very well! Thank you for the love and appreciation you have given Me and the Film! It really means a lot! Even though the Critics have slammed the Film Left, Right and Centre, it is you guys who have made us all smile by liking the Film! :-) And now, Blog Time! :-)

RISE. ABOVE. HATE. To be honest, until I started writing this Blog, I had no idea what should I write. Writer's Block you can say. But then, I was going through the new items at WWE Shop Zone website and I saw John Cena's new T-Shirt and on that it was Printed, Rise Above Hate! And I saw it and said, WOW! John Cena has always been one of My Role Models. More than his physique and personality, it is his attitude which I salute. Every week when he goes out there and faces the people, he hears, "Let's go Cena! Cena Sucks!" But he never quits! He always keeps fighting because he knows how to Rise Above The Hate! :-)

I remember he once said, "I know there are many people out there who hate Me and many out there who love Me. Well, all those who love Me, I am here with you My Brothers and the ones who hate Me? Well, you can just kiss My ass!" That is attitude! That is courage! That is the power within to accept hate and to make that hatred a power to use for the good! I relate to Cena in many ways because I know there are many out there who hate Me but I also know there are many out there who love Me as well. :-)

This world is a brutal place and no matter even if we don't wanna accept it we all like the ability to control. The power to tell others that they are not good enough and that they have to change in order to fit into society. We all want to dominate and always have the upper hand. I know many who have been caught in this web. They are so affected by what people say that they keep on changing themselves and try to fit in in order to be liked, loved and appreciated. But they forget that this way, they loose their own identities and what remains is just flesh and bone. When they do realize what has become of them, it is too late and life just passes by. I, on the other hand choose not to be like them ...

I am who I am. I love Myself and I adore Myself. Sure, I may not be perfect, sure I may have many flaws, sure I may not be "good enough" for some but I know that when I look Myself in the mirror I am ME. Pure Me. Nothing Fake. No pretensions. Just ME. See history and whoever has not "followed" or "changed" has been condemned and hated. I don't care If I am hated. I will never be something I am not because even before god I have to answer to Myself.

Just like Love, Hatred will always be there. The question is what will you do when you are faced with Hatred? Will you succumb to it or Rise Above It? Just like John Cena hears it every week, even we get to hear our Loves and Hates. The choice will always be yours. I choose to rise above hate because only the ones who have accepted that they are hated and the ones who triumph over it! :-)

This is Me, Mahaakshay Chakraborty ... And this is My Story.
