The Nexus...

Fresh out of N.S.D.,I met him.Passionate,charismatic,stubborn,eclectic,loving,leftist, and a believer in friendships...He directed plays,led people,gave a ear to anyone who aproached.He was the Agony uncle,who charged seemingly apolitical mortals to go into villages of then burning Punjab,singing songs of peace and Kabir.He was the hive around whom,all hovered...some just wanting to know,why others were there...while most wanting to hear something more.He was fire and ice... He was a child who sulked then cut off links..He was a mentor who wouldnt give up,till we got our wings.On his shift,Actors became poets and composers,small town boys experienced the freedom to talk and make friends with english honours girls...And some people like me,got out of the KLAUS MARIA BRANDEUR cliche in Mephisto... of "I am just an actor".To realy get,that "I am ALSO an actor".NK or nexus as I call him,continues to infuse life and smoke wills.His ACT 1 continues.This pic of him under the NEEM TREE OUTSIDE N.S.D.
