ok. Recently I have been much in mind hassles. It was the Bollywood movie "Jindagi Na Milegi Dobara". Naseeruddin Shah played the role of an painter. He left his biological child (played by Farhan Akhtar) ever since his infancy. Now, it was a son who come to Spain to see his father all the way. Of course he had a "high five" time with his friends.
But the most intriguing question an artist father can ask to his son over a short meet is the topic here. He asked - "What do you do for yourself ?". Many people mislead this question with "What do you do ? or What do you do for living ?". But its more in depth that mere "one's profession".
The son understood, he replied "I write." And his father face shone. Not because they share "artistic genes", neither for his son can stand and support him. But because, any artist well knows how important it is for a man to find his "passion" and live in its flow.
The movie portrays "Hrithik Roshan" a reserved, stock-exchange guy who once had a 'love', until he passionately falls in love with "Katrina Kaif". Similarly, "Abhay Deol", a committed guy rediscovers his priorities just in time before being chased by bulls in the streets of Spain.
Someone who lives in the flow of his/her passion, is always filled with life:

Dilon mein tum apni betaabiyan leke chal rahe ho, toh zinda ho tum
Nazar mein khwaabon ki bijliyan leke chal rahe ho, toh zinda ho tum
Nazar mein khwaabon ki bijliyan leke chal rahe ho, toh zinda ho tum
Hawa ke jhokon ke jaise aazad rehna seekho
Tum ek dariya ke jaise lehron mein behna seekho
Har ek lamhe se tum milo khole apni baahein
Har ek pal ek naya samaa dekhiye
Jo apni aankhon mein hayraniyan leke chal rahe ho, toh zinda ho tum
Dilon mein tum apni betaabiyan leke chal rahe ho, toh zinda ho tum
