I am back home and was browsing through the TV channels for something interesting and I found it in one of the most unexpected places. The Doordarshan’s Lok Sabha channel was airing an old movie that looked more like an art cinema. But it took me no longer than a second to realize that it was HALO, a 1996 children’s movie that I had watched when I was in primary school. Suddenly I found myself subdued in nostalgia and filled with some kind of joy that I can’t express in words.
I had seen a glimpse of the movie a few years ago, probably it was about to end. I had the same emotions then that I had today, but was sad that I missed it. I think today was my lucky day. I must confess that it is more of a fairy tale than a movie.
